Altair Art - Spring Blossoms Accordion Album

 Hello, my friends!

I'm back today with a new project share
 as Brand Ambassador for Altair Art Scrapbooking Papers.

Today I'm sharing another project using the gorgeous Spring Blossoms Collection.
My previous post using this collection was a really fun purse.
You can find that post HERE.

I have to tell you that these papers are fabulous to work with!
The designs are gorgeous but the quality is incredible.
I really love Altair Art papers!

This time I am sharing an accordion album
that I made to fit inside the purse.


It turns out that I used up all my light pink cardstock on the purse.
I picked another pink cardstock that matched the patterned paper,
and used it for the base of my album.


I also made a cardstock band to wrap around the album.
I added a pretty ribbon bow to it.
This serves two purposes:
it helps keep the album closed,
and it offers something to grab onto when pulling it out of the purse.


This collection includes so many beautiful elements,
and I really like fussy cutting them all out.


Aren't those papers gorgeous?
I used a ticket and flower for a tuck spot for the tag.


Here I simply added the butterflies.


This is the back of the album.
I think it would make a really pretty card.
The oval is another tuck spot, as it's adhered just along the bottom.




This is an accordion album,
so now we go back around the other way.
The left side is the pretty paper,
on the right side are more fussy cut elements.


On the left, I have formed a pocket and added an oval journal spot.
On the right, I have added a belly band.
In the photo below, I have moved the oval under the belly band.


Here youc an see the album tucked into the purse.
As you can see, there is room for a couple more! :o)
