As you know, 2007 was a big year for us, we were blessed with a new son and brother enjoyed many mini vacations among other things. I wanted a place to hold all of our memorable family photos from our 2007 year. Here's the little accordion mini book I came up with.
The front cover of the Spring/Summer Stampin Up! catalogue inspired me for the cover of my little album. I used some Basic Grey "Urban Couture" papers for the backdrop, and punched a scalloped edge from white cardstock using my Stampin Up! slit punch. I stamped the word "memories" (Heidi Grace, "Wild Daisy" stamp set) and heat set with white embossing powder. The numbers 2007 are Basic Grey numbers, painted white. I used some gold edged cream ribbon for the enclosure.
The white dotted background throughout is white cardstock embossed with the "Swedish Dots" Cuttlebug embossing folder. I also made paper flowers from the Stampin Up! flower punch and stamped over with a design from the Heidi Grace, Wild Daisy stamp set. I added a green and red button as the center for each flower.
