Hard at work and onesie album


I'm still backing up files. Can you believe it? I'm almost done, though. I've made over 80 CDs on my way to backing up 60 GBs of information. The only folder I have left is Baby Andrew photos.

So, I haven't taken a whole lot of time to create something else. Sure, going through all my photos has created a slurry of ideas and inspiration, but I don't want to be too distracted. It's taken me two weeks to get this far!

Just because I can't post a new digital layout doesn't mean I can't post something else :)

Here's a shaped chipboard album that I made for a baby shower.
I made a template and then cut chipboard myself. Because the chipboard was thin and flexible, I glued two pieces together to make a sturdier page. I also painted the edges a light green.

I used K&Co paper to cover the album and every page has a pocket on the top part and photo mats on the bottom.
I used the K&Co coordinating tags and misc. ribbon to go in the pockets.

Obviously, the baby's name was Jacoby :) I used the K&Co coordinating chipboard alpha set.
I used CTMH brads and spiral clips, MM brads, and MM metal baby charms, MM metal baby words and the K&Co coordinating chipboard words to embellish each page.

The album is held together with binder rings from Staples.

Love the album. So original and cute. Good luck on the backing up. I have a 1tb backup drive that syncs my stuff automatically as I lost some paris and England pics so am religious. Love your blog border, looks like you are a fan of rhonna too.
