Gossamer Blue Inspiration Blog Hop September 2015 | Mini album 'Smile' with wood veneer cover

'Cute mini album with wood veneer cover' ♥ 'Süßes Mini mit einem Cover aus Holz'

Welcome to September Inspiration Blog Hop 2015 from Gossamer Blue. You might have come here from the wonderful Rebecca from Thurston Post. Now it's my turn... I want to share a fun mini album with memories from our summer holidays 2015. I mostly used materials from the main kit. The special thing about this mini is the wood veneer cover from Crate Paper. I  used my crop-a-dile to make a hole to insert the binding ring. I was a bit afraid that the wood would break, but - tata - it worked :). Here are the pages - I hope you like the mini album :). Herzlich willkommen zum September Inspirations-Blog-Hop 2015 von Gossamer Blue. Vielleicht kommt ihr ja von der genialen Rebecca von Thurston Post?! Jetzt geht es weiter auf meinem Blog. Ich möchte euch ein kleines feines Minialbum zeigen, das ich mit Materialien aus dem September Main Kit gestaltet habe. Das besondere an dem Mini ist das Cover - ein Holzrechteck mit dem ausgestanzten Wort 'Smile' (von Crate Paper), in das ich einfach mit dem Crop-A-Dile ein Loch für den Bindering gemacht habe. Ich hatte ja etwas Bedenken, dass das Holz einreißen könnte, aber es hat funktioniert. Viel Spaß beim Schauen :).

I want to highlight some of the things about the mini. First, I made a hole with the crop-a-dile... (and my son had to demonstrate it for the photo :)...)

Second, I cut different patterned paper to the size of the wood veneer and gathered materials from the kit to decorate the mini...

Third, I used the heatembossing technique to colour the wood veneer 'hello' from the kit with aqua and gold embossing powder...

Fourth, I used a butterfly stamp from my stash to make a lovely butterfly to decorate one of the pages of the mini...

Fifth, I took a photo of my favourite pair of sandals and decorated it with some embellishments...

Sixth, I used a snapshot I had made at the beach during our summer holidays, sewed the photo to white cardstock and stamped on the cardstock and the photo...

Seventh, I prepared this post and thought it would be nice to show you photos of all the pages from my mini album - and I decided to make them a bit smaller so your eyes won't get tired :)...

Eighth, that's all from me today and I'm closing with three final photos of the mini - TFL :)...
