I found these beautiful fabric covered containers in the dollar spot at michaels. And they had matching ribbon! I decided to make a thank you mini-album/card for my aunt that took me and my oldest daughter out last weekend for her birthday. I got the idea for the mini album from a tutorial that Nichole Heady did a few months ago. I went kind of simple for this week's project.
STEP 1
Supplies:
Container
ribbon
fabric glue
rhinestones
Step 1- measure ribbon so that it will fit all the way around the fabric container.
Step 3- Glue ribbon in place
You could fill the container with a lot of different things! What would you add???
STEP 2
Supplies:
Stamps- Best blossom & Lexicon of love
Paper- Mellow moss & Very vanilla
Mellow moss ink
2 in. scallop punch
1 1/2 circle punch
1 3/8 circle punch
5 pictures (1.625 x 1.625)
Ribbon
Step 1- Punch out 12 scallop circles in Very vanilla. Punch 11 1 1/2 inch circles in Mellow moss. Punch out the five pictures with the 1 3/8 circle punch.
Step 3- Punch out with the 1 3/8 circle punch
Step 4- Adhere the "thanks" circles to mellow moss circles.
Step 5- Adhere those to scallop circles.
Step 6- place face down and put a strip of adhesive in the centers of each scallop.
Step 7-Adhere the ribbon across the scallops (works better if the ribbon is face up unlike what I did here)
Step 9- Decorate the last vanilla scallop. This will be used as the "cover" of your mini album.
Step 10- Adhere the rest of your scallops on top of the ribbon and other scallops.
Finished product.
