Inside view (I used pre-made inserts for the signatures that I embellished):
I didn't do a tutorial for this project but here is a peek of just the cover, outside and inside:
I used a ton of Distress Oxide inks on the cover here as well as Texture Paste through a stencil with gold embossing powder added to the top of it.
I covered the inside of the cover with pages from an old hymnal, then stamped and inked over the top.

Just beautiful, Lisa!I love the cover, inside and out and how you made the pages! Merry Christmas! (Our tree is still sitting in a bucket of water outside!)
ReplyDeleteYour album is beautiful Lisa, the angel on the front is so lovely and that ton of Distress Oxide worked wonderfully well! I really love the vintage look of the inserts too. We have not even managed to put our tree up yet, I need to make an effort!
