Using a Filofax as a Journal or Scrapbook | Mother’s Day Gift Idea

by

Take a stroll through this Filofax organizer which has been transformed into a scrapbook/journal! It’s filled with vintage pieces and lots of good memories for a friend.

This would make a really great gift for Mother’s Day. You can pre-fill the binder with decorated pages, special photos your mom would love, pockets for holding additional photos, and even a section for a calendar and to-do lists.

80’s Inspired Boombox Shaped Mini Album

I was a teen in the 80’s so this totally rad Boombox shaped mini album from Traci really speaks to me! She created a rectangle shaped black acrylic album with rounded corners, adding buttons and a handle on the top with a cover decorated to look like a real boombox with speakers, a tape deck, buttons and more. She used the Totally 80’s collection of products from Simple Stories that has lots of bright pink and teal colors with cool 80’s inspired patterns like black and white check and colorful graphics. There’s also load of fun embellishments like a Walkman, high top sneakers, retro TV, camera, hair spray can and more. 

I had huge hair in the 80’s and am embarrassed to admit how much Aquanet hair spray I used!

Traci has included her totally tubular signature flaps and pockets in the album too for some radical interactive elements too.

Visit the Artsy Album blog to learn more about this bodacious mini album project.
