Forever Love - Mixed Media | Fabric bound | Mini Album

Hello guys
Today's project is my first attempt at a lot of things. I had never made a flexible spine mini album nor a fabric bound one. Also, I wanted to do a mixed media album for a very long time.....I combined all of my desires into this one project...so its very special for me.

This album is 9" by 6" in size and the spine is 3.5". It has 5 pages and can hold around 40 to 50 pictures and has few journalling tags. Most of the pages are interactive and the flaps are held by strong magnets.

I have used the newly launches papers from Little Birdie called A True Love Story. These papers are a little vintage looking which inspired me to incorporate the blacks, browns and golds in my project.
Here are few pictures of my album but I do encourage you to watch the video fliptrough of this album for a better look at my project.

I am putting my project up at the following challenges:

1. Allsorts Challenge Blog Week 454 - Love is in the Air

Love forever - Mixed media layout

Hey everyone
How are you all doing? I was on a break this month and I just started with my work 2 days back. This is my first project and I want to show you all my first attempt at mixed media layout.

I have made this project for a close person who is going to have twins and the color scheme and the concept is inspired by this fact. I have used lots of pinks and blues and yellows....did lot of textures usind stencils and modelling paste. I have used Color splash by Itsybitsy in ocean mist and tangerine...the colours are really pigmented and beautiful. They are really bright and you can mute them if you want with just water...which is really cool.

The pattern paper used from the entire background is from Papericious and well as few embellishments like the button and the laces. Their collection for papers is really awesome and I like the new sets of embellishments they have.

I started with the pattern paper from Its a girl pack from Papericious and brushed a thin coat of gesso on it and distressed its edges. Then I made my own pattern paper to creat some interest for the picture. After this was the fun part of adding textures and stencils and layers of colors.

I am putting this project up for Itsybitsy challenge and Papericious challenge of this month.

I am adding the video link for youtube to see my project. I hope you will enjoy this video.

Thank you all for visiting me and I hope you all like my project. Have a good day.
