Themes, layouts and inspirations
Here’s a clever idea from Tempest Ahoy. If you have just a few acrylic stamps and don’t want to invest in acrylic blocks, maybe you can do like she did and upcycle some older pre-inked stamps to use them. She shows you two ways you can do this, as well as another idea for pressing something you may have on hand into service. Click here to see more.
Traci used the “Hey Pumpkin” collection from Doodlebug to create a darling Mini Album for Halloween. The album measures 6″x6″ with rounded covers decorated with green spider web pattern paper and another layer of orange paper with a large black acrylic Oct. 31 and a cute witch and black cat printed embellishments.
Inside the pages use the same cute collection for a cohesive design and she’s included fun interactive pages like this four lift up flaps and some pockets on other pages too.
But the big stand out of this album design is part of the back cover where she created an amazing extension of elements coming up over the top. This fun little scene has a spooky gate, creepy tree, cute pumpkins, colorful flowers, a peeking cat, happy ghost and big beautiful moon. I’ve never seen anyone do this on an album and I think it’s such a fabulous extra touch!
