Micro Mini Album with Alter Matchbox

Hello Everyone! Happy Tuesday

 

I have been busy organizing the craft studio and trying to get things ready for a couple of Craft Fairs that I am doing this month and next month.

 

I have also been trying to set up video taping times to make a few tutorials and more.

 

I have been working on a Altered Matchbox and wanted to make a little album to go inside of it for a shelf in my room.

Here is the box that I altered... I love how it turned out. The paper is from Recollections at Michael's and it was on clearance and I just love the vintage of this paper.

 

 

I cut the butterfly for the Tim Holtz Mover and Shapers die cut and thought it would go perfect with this paper. I added some recollection flat back pearls to the butterfly and curls the wings a little and some tulle behind it to lift it up.

The Micro Mini Album measures 3.5" x 2.25" there is six pages inside to add photos too. I added a brad to the front to wrap the string closure around to keep the album closed.

 

This album fits perfect inside the drawer of the altered box.

 

 

I did make a tutorial video on this Micro Mini Album. You can find it at
