Book Making



A Mini Memories Album

Materials for Album:
Matboard- cut 2, 6x7" pieces and 2, 6x1" pieces

Lay 1 of each matboard piece on decorative paper that has been cut ½" longer and wider than the matboard.

Leave ¼" space between the two pieces to create the hinge.

Glue the matboard pieces to the decorative paper, miter the corners and turn the excess to the inside and glue down. Cover both front and back in this manner.


Treasured Moments: A Mini Memories Album
Stamp Artist - Martha Myers
Images: gg designs & Stamp Zia

Cut inside cover cardstock (7 ¾" x 5 ¾") and glue to inside of each cover. Run bone folder or stylus along inside hinge so hinge opens easily.

Punch 2 holes in each "spine" section. Cut several sheets of inside paper (5 ½" x 7 ½"). Punch holes in each paper so they line up with the holes punched in the cover. Thread ribbon or fibers through holes, tie and then decorate outside cover.
Outside Cover:

On small white panel, stamp, mask and emboss several flowers (gg designs-Modified Floral Minis) with gold detail powder along corner.  Color with markers and Fiji Water pen (filled with blender fluid).  Stamp and emboss the same flowers on scrap white cardstock, color and cut out. Stamp and emboss butterfly (Stamp It!), color and cut out.   Layer cut out flowers on top of stamped flowers on the panel and adhere with glue gun. Adhere the butterfly in the same manner.  Stamp and emboss message (Stamp It!) in top right corner of panel. Edge panel with gold leaf pen and mount to green panel.

On large white panel stamp and emboss words (Stamp Zia) and leaves (gg designs) with gold, moss and garnet powders. Edge panel with gold leaf pen. Mount flower panel to large panel and adhere to front of album cover.

Below are four Mini Albums / Journals, created by Diane Miller, using Martha's technique.

1) I save the plastic bottle tops from soda, water bottles to use as 'portion cups' when I'm doing my paper-arts. They are great for holder embossing liquid for brush techniques, small amounts of glue, paints.....

2) old CD's--the one's that come inth e mail or the one's that my son has mis-downloaded on his CD recorder--make excellent paint pallettes--especially for pearl-ex---when i'm done for the day I spread the paint a little on the cd, sprinkle on some powdered pearls and do a little 'direct-to-paper' to use up the left-over.
