Hello everyone!
Today I, Shakhrai Dina, am starting a baby project that will help create things to store all kinds of memories and objects of a baby's first days!
What are we going to make in this project?
We will create an album, mommy's treasures and a photo frame with a magical mood, we will save the most important and unique moments of a baby's life.
Our project will consist of 4 stages.
And the first one is preparatory!
We will create an album. At this stage, we will select paper, cut pages and photo mats, stitch everything, design openings for photos. You will also need a binding ready (you can purchase it ready-made in the Fabrika Decoru store.
You can make your own album, or you can repeat after me - it's up to you!
So: my album will be 15 by 20 cm with four spreads with inserts. You can do any type of binding, the one you like the most.
My binding looks like this
I will work with children collections by Fabrika Decoru - Funny Fox girl and Sweet bunny.
I want to use the Funny Fox collection as a main one.
When choosing a paper, it's time to cut page. They are 5 mm smaller than the base
My photo mats are 10 by 10 cm made of cardstock of 160 gr/m2.
Using the leftovers of scrapbooking paper, I make die cuts and cut out elements to create layers.
After we cut everything, it's time to stitch. I have pages and some openers stitched, and I immediately sewed some embellishments.
We prepare all 4 spreads for embellishing, thereby preparing die-cuts and cut-out elements from a sheet of a children scrapbooking set
What we get: four spreads with ready-made folding elements and an album cover!
In the video I will show what I did!
And now some photos of my ready-to-embellish spreads
Ready to get into a baby's world?!
Happy crafting to you!
