Relative-History - My Jane Austen Quote Album

    Hello, my friends!

I'm back again today, with a another new project share for Relative-History!
Relative-History is a UK based company,
dedicated to helping people tell their stories and document their family history.

When you do any shopping at Relative-History,
you can use code: RHNANCY10
That will give you a 10% discount on anything you purchase! :o)

I have to tell you that I had the BEST time putting this project together!
I hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I enjoyed making it!

With our focus being on Jane Austen,
I thought it would be fun to put an album together with some information on Jane herself.
That's how this project began but then it turned into more of a quote book.
I grabbed one of my SNAP albums and a variety of pocket pages,
and then filled it using products from Relative-History.
I've used a combination of physical products, as well as digital pieces printed out.
Most of the embellishments are also from the collection
and some are from wonderful free files that were shared at the special events.
(You'll find them Here at the Blog)

I die-cut an assortment of shapes from white cardstock.
Onto these, I hand wrote a variety of wonderful Jane Austen quotes. 
I had just purchased some pretty colored pens, so it was fun to use them.

I do hope you take the time to read the quotes...they're really fun!

Here we go:


I'm using a SNAP binder with the pretty green spine.
It worked beautifully with this photo from the collection,
as well as the gorgeous paper from the Romantique Collection.
I also added a strip of lace.


The first page focuses on Jane.


I turned this page into a pocket,
that houses a pull-out page with a tab on top.
Originally, I was going to fill this page with biographical information on Jane Austen.
However, there were so many fantastic quotes left after filling the pockets.
So I filled the front with additional quotes,
and added the biographical info on the back.











I added another picture of Jane on the last page.
Doesn't it look like she's sitting in a grand drawing room?


Isn't that fun? 
I'm thrilled to have an album full of Jane Austen quotes!
There are enough great quotes to fill several albums! :o)

WOW! Nancy this is absolutely awesome, the work is so beautiful, I love the quotes on each page with the appropriate image. Fabulous work and a real treasure.
It all reminds me of a visit to the Vicarage where Jane and her sisters and brother were born in a beautiful village in Yorkshire.
