Mini Tunnel Album with Graphic45 Fairy Dreams/Wishes

On By celestelindIn Crafting1 Comment

I saw a video of someone making a tunnel album which was ATC size (about 2×3”) and thought this paper would be fantastic for it! So many of the images are tiny anyway, since they are fairies, after all.

The hardest part of this was getting all the pages to line up – even with a tutorial, I had trouble, but lucky for me, I am also stubborn!

I didn’t quite know what to do with it once I was finished – this paper has been discontinued, and I was working with scraps as it was – the image I was trying to emulate had the mini album on top of a much larger (but still mini-sized) photo album, and I didn’t have nearly enough paper to pull that off, so decided to create a card, and instead of the emphasis being on my dimensional flowers, the emphasis is on the mini tunnel album.

The butterfly is from my stash, picked it up at a hobby shop quite a while back, and flowers are from Heartfelt Creations – theoretically small petunias, but I just turned them into blossoms.

Personally I think it’s adorable, but I know I’m biased! Thanks for stopping by and looking!!

Mini Tunnel Album with Heartfelt Creations

This is my third tunnel album. I’m actually posting out of order, as I told someone I’d get this one up today!

This mini is a little bit bigger than my previous, at 2-1/2 x 3-3/4” inches, because some of the images were quite a bit bigger than I could use in the smaller booklet. I also made quite a few mistakes putting it together, but I was plenty stubborn, and determined to make it work!

I used two paper collections, the clematis and the Dragonflies, and was lucky in that I was also able to use several die cuts to get my images instead of fussy cutting everything! (I’m not a big fan of fussy cutting). Anyway it was really a fun (and distracting) project that turned out rather well, I think!

Thanks so much for looking and stopping by!!

“Fancy” Greeting Card

On By celestelindIn CraftingLeave a comment

This was actually my first card using Graphic 45’s “Flights of Fancy” paper collection.

I’ve used a die or two from Heartfelt creations, cutting the doily from a holographic sort of silver paper, and the flowers are also HFC, using the Classic rose. Too much fun being had here at my house, playing with all this gorgeousness!! (Is that a word?)

Thanks for stopping by!
