Do you make your own albums?

Post by Tamara »

I go to a lot of retreats where we make albums that were designed by the store owner and we just have to put them together? There are talented people out there that make amazing ones with pockets, waterfalls, magnetic closures and so much cuteness with whatever line they are using. I can do small flip books and waterfalls but not so much a whole big book of one subject or paper line.

Do you ever try something like that? I had a lady at my crop yesterday that can do that. She made a book with the new echo park ladybug line. She is teaching it to her friend group (for free just when they all get together) I guess I just haven't ever wanted to take the time to be that creative. :lol: :lol: I wish I had a picture to show you.

I have never made my own book. I don't know if I have the patience for it. I am not very good with proportions and would inevitably mess something up by having a page too big, too small wrong layout etc :lol: :lol:

Yes! I even used to teach a class at school for 6th graders for several years and the kids would compete in the youth fair arts and crafts.

I'm in the process of making a recipe book out of some outdated scrapbook paper and a cracker box.
