If you loved making the matchbook cards we did a few months ago at the Make-It/Take It at Stampin’ From the Heart, then you will go ga-ga over this sweet matchbook album/journal. We’ll make it from a colorful double-sided Basic Grey kit and decorate it with stamps, decorative papers, collage images and other ephemera–don’t you just love ephemera? There’ll be spaces to add journaling later on.
Mini-Matchbook Album: 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday June 13, Stampin From the Heart, Cost $45. Call Karen’s store now or drop by to sign up. Limited to 10 students. Bring lunch.
Tools and materials for you to bring: precision scissors, glue stix, double-sided tape and red tape for those stubborn ephemera items.
Optional: This album can easily be personalized for a special birthday, graduation, Father’s day or wedding gift. Feel free to bring up to 8 of your own images, but they should be no larger than 1-1/2 by 2 -1/2 inches in order to fit on the pages. Hint: Black and white or sepia tone images can give disparate photos a more uniform look.
