Hello, my fine friends!
I have a new DT project to share with you for my favorite store...Creative Inspirations! Yes, it's another mini album! I did take lots of pictures but the first few show you everything if you don't want to look at ALL of them! ;o)
I used the 7gypsies Accordion Purse Kit in the small size. The purse is super easy to put together! I started by staining the edges of the chipboard with Distress Stain. All of the papers were distressed with a distress tool and then inked before being adhered. I ran some ribbon through some lace and added it for the handle. I also added a strip on the bottom and a little piece through a metal buckle. Then I added three punched flowers.
For the album itself I followed the same process; stained, distressed, inked and adhered. I kept the pages all very simple and flat. I made a few little pockets, and added some small tags with ribbons. I've also added several 7gypsies stickers that match perfectly. They are just big enough to add a date or a few words. These papers are so pretty that they don't need any further embellishments!
Here is the closed purse and the mini album beside it:

Here is the closed purse and the mini album beside it:
I didn't use the closure that came with the kit; I added some velcro tabs instead.
When closed, the purse itself measures 41/2" wide X 43/4" high X 11/2" deep.
This is the entire front of the album:
This is the entire back of the album:
These are the next pages after the front cover. All the papers were distressed and then inked.
The album pages measure 4" X 4" each, and there are 16 pages in all.
Finally, here is the back of the box and album.
