Here we go!

Christmas time is HERE!!

My latest project was a DVD tin album. I bought the DVD tin at a local scrapbook shop- probably 2 months ago. I have been looking at it trying to decide what to do with it!! I stopped in at the scrapbook shop yesterday and the owner was working on a DVD tin album- so she gave me some pointers and i decided to try it for myself! This was SO EASY! and i think it turned out really cute!


I used Stampin Up christmas paper, Bella Toile designer paper, and cardstock. Kiwi Kiss and Real Red, Chocolate Chip and a little Baha Breeze. (all Stampin Up) I used the stickers from the "I Wish" Simply Scrappin Kit (Stampin Up) and it made it so simple to put together.



1st pic- DVD Tin (shut) Bella Toile DSP and I did the "Christmas Memories" on the printer. The 2nd pic is the tin open with the first page of the scrapbook. Each page is hinged so it folds accordian style. The tabs i used to hinge the pages came from the scrapbook shop also. They look somewhat like a butterfly bandage. They are clear and photo safe.


3rd pic- pages opened up. 8 pages. 4th pic- up close of first two pages- ready for pictures!


5th and 6th Pics- show more detail of the inside pages


Up close pic of the last page.
This was a project that i will definitely try again!!
Thanks for looking and comments are ALWAYS appreciated!!
