Today's "Video Tutorial"
Boy Brag Album
Hey everyone! Check out this amazing and fun boy album I made. I just love the colours! This paper line is an old Bo-Bunny paper line.
Look how fun and interactive this album is! Tags and openings! I love the use of die cuts to add interest. You don't have to fill you albums full of flowers and expensive embellishments. Especially for a boy and or male item.
I loved using a stamp set to add some extra interest. I saw someone awhile ago post a video on an album somewhat like this one. I didn't like the tutorial as it seemed to be lacking space to fold up nicely. So I re-designed the idea totally. I added some different flips/flaps and some other different things throughout the album.
I used many die cuts and stamping to add interest to this album. When embellishing a boy or male project, it is hard to embellish sometimes as we tend to want to flower everything! Ribbons and flowers are embellishments used more for feminine stuff, however I sometimes can sneak a male looking flower onto a male card!
I love all the sewing throughout the album. It adds a lot of interest and embellishment! It also adds a bit of texture to this album.
Part 1: Building the base of the album.
Part 2: Embellishing and putting together the album.
Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you for the videos! I purchased the kid at Treasured Memories. How did you make the tags? Are they a die & if so what is the name of the die?
