Postcard Mini Album

Welcome to Scraptacular's Blog! We are very excited to show you all of the fun things our DT girls have come up with. Check back here every few days for some fun inspiration using products you can find at the Scraptacular store : http://www.itsscraptacular.com/.

Here's a project I just did using supplies from October Afternoon's Road Map line. I love this line for our summer trips! This project is actually a mini album made from postcards I collected on our trip to Dewey Beach, DE.

First you need to gather your supplies:
~adhesive
~postcards
~patterned paper
~pictures
~embellishments
~metal ring




Then design your front cover:

Next, cover all of your postcard backs with patterned paper:


Then add your photos and embellish as desired:



























































To bind your album, use a crop-a-dile or heavy duty hole punch to make a hole in the upper left hand corner:







To finish, simply thread your metal ring through the holes and voila!


I hope you liked this fun little tutorial. If you have tried this, please leave us a comment so we can see your beautiful work!
