Scrapbook - Theme: P.S.I love you

This is one of my favourite scrapbook that I have done so far ( not so many, huh, this is my second one, that came up with my own design). I have used pattern papers only to hold journals/photographs. All other images and pattern papers that are stuck to the white base (white card stock) are the ones that I designed using stencils and stamps. I must say that I enjoyed making it. I did, really. I was impressed by the movie P.S. I love you and I wanted the letters (which play a main role in the film) to be a part of my scrapbook. I guess I have done some justice to the scrap booking world. Please leave your comments if it impressed you by any chance and if it did not, let me know why.

I should really say what triggered me to make this scrapbook. I was asked by one of my friends whether I can do a scrapbook that is so romantic, that can say stories about her love, that she wanted to pen down all her cute emotions over a paper. But she did not want to gift this to her love, rather, she wanted to keep this for herself, something as a token of her written expressions which she wanted to show to her love after their marriage. Here goes my try..

Please ask for patience. Again a picture-heavy post.

Again - a picture-heavy post. 

The scrapbook totally contains 9 pages, so 18 sides and almost one and a half inch lesser compared to an A4 size book/paper. There are nine page inserts, where these nine pager inserts could be hidden within back to back pages. They are tied with ribbon that makes it easy to pull.

 Front Cover:


Flowers are from Ujjwal (:)). I liked the bright colours. The heart-shaped dies are from Nellie Snellen and I used Crafters Companion for tying the silver shaped bow. I attached a few mulberry roses and  Swans are fron Nellie Snellen again that comes with the heart-shaped die. Corner dies are from MFT. I used Papermania papers for the album cover.

Backside of Front Cover: Can hold a journal/photo.
Page 1: Can hold a photo and the journal is hidden behind with a tag tied with a ribbon to pull out easily.

 This is a hidden tag to write your own memories. It is placed between back to back pages to hide it from the external sight.

Scrapbook - Forever & Always

Indeed, it was a great pleasure to meet Ujjwal over a workshop for scrapbooking and card making. We were introduced to many new items in crafts as well as cost-effective techniques. It was pattern papers everywhere and we loved them all. Thanks Ujjwal for showing us very good techniques in card making.

A picture-heavy post :)


The cute flower embellishments..

First page: with a photo space and a tag

Second page can hold some photographs and third page has space for hidden photos/journaling.

 Other side of the tag
                                     y


 Fourth page has a place holder for journaling and photo and next page is just an envelope with a small flip card, that has space to write ten lines;something like "Ten things I love about you" or "My ten wishes" or "Our ten great moments", just to add some memories.

 Envelope: The other side; and the next page (fifth) has a mix of pattern papers that were extra when the others were cut.

 A small envelope on seventh page. Sixth page is left empty.

A small insert for the envelope.

The page on the left side (eighth page) is a placeholder for two photos and the one on the right (ninth page) is plain with a simple sentiment. Tag could be used for additional journaling.

 The tenth page has a flip where three photos could be placed. The eleventh page has a gate fold where five photographs could be placed.

Twelfth page is plain with simple sentiments and thirteenth page has a maze fold where seven photographs could be placed.

Fourteenth page has a place for holding three photographs. Fifteenth page is made simple and has a page extension where four photographs can be stored.

Sixteenth page was made with a mix of pattern papers and seventeenth page has an accordion fold where almost five photographs could be placed.

Eighteenth page is left simple and the nineteenth page has a simple fold, where three photographs could be placed.

     

The twentieth and the last page has a simple diagonal cut, where photo/journal could be inserted. A small space was created at the back cover for journaling/placing photo.

     

Again, the yummy pattern papers are Ujjwal's choice and it is excellent!!!

This is what we made at the workshop..
