Mini album “Funny Animals” with Julia Kissel

Hi dear crafty friends! Today I would like to show you a special mini-album with Lindy’s stamps playing the main role here! The stamps come on a rubber base, I carefully cut them out and made prints on paper. It’s very convenient to use them when they are separated. My album created of one sheet of scrap paper. It has 4 pages and 2 pockets. I made it for one hour. If you go to visit, such an album may be a quick and pleasant gift!

Basic process

Take a sheet of scrap paper 30x30cm
Make 2 lines by 10cm, Turn over and to make 1 line 15cm. Use Scoring Board or any method for scoring.
Cut paper in the middle as you see on the video.
You can glue the album as you wish!
Make pages for our album. Take a watercolor paper and funny Lindy’s stamp, for example, Elegant Leonard Lion’s Gang
Use Stazon inks for stamping, as they will not spread when using water.
Before using Magical Shakers moisten the surface of the paper with water.
On every page, you can use different Magical Shakers. On the 1st: Afternoon Delight Denim, Polka Purple, Glittering Gold. On the 2nd: Cuckoo Clock Cardinal, Alpine Ice Rose, Aged Copper. On the 3rd: Oktoberfest Orange, Cathedral Pines Green, Antique Gold. On the 4th: Stormy Silver, Guten Tag Teal, Magnolia Magenta Gold.
Tint paper edges with Distress Inks – eg Walnut Stain.
Compile and glue the compositions of various flat decorations on pages, then glue pages into the album.
Make the cover using Lindy’s stamp Colonel’s Gang. It’s my lovely chicken! Paint it Magical Shakers: Oktoberfest Orange, Cathedral Pines Green, Alpine Ice Rose.
For the book’s spine cut a piece of scrap paper according to the size the album and glue it.
Glue the paper composition on the cover.
Make white acrylic drops on all pages.
