I wrote down San for the Pink Lady Spotlight.

actually anja emailed me first for that one (but i don't think she did reply all, so only i saw it), so i have another email out to San to she if she can do the next one (oct) ... :) I'm just waiting to hear back before I update everything and reply back to all regarding who is doing what.

Ah okay! Awesome that we can work ahead like this!! Thanks everyone!

so many volunteered to help out, we are in good shape!!! it is awesome, thank you, thank you!  

  

I have an idea for my hybrid spot : a square album in a box. I saw it on pinterest : http://www.pinterest.com/pin/434245589043865231/
I find it's perfect project for hybrid scrapbooking

I just KNOW you are going to ROCK that! Can't wait to see my friend! I think I might want to try this when I have a bit of time too! That looks like loads of fun to make!

that is really cute, i pinned it too!   

Forgot to mention that Anja's Spotlight is ready and scheduled

My hybrid project for august is finished !!!








I found my inspiration on pinterest for this hybrid project (inpisration : Camille Styles - blog : http://camillestyles.com/diy-2/crafting-with-canon-tiny-travel-album-in-a-box/).
I decided to use only two colors for this project : krfat and blue. Kraft beacause my pictures were in brown tone and blue because i love blue and kraft and mainly i wanted to use this beautiful ribbon ! ^^

I cut a paper tape (30.5 x 5 cm) and i divided/folded this tape in 6 pieces (each is 5 by 5 cm) to create a wrinkled tape. The last part (0.5 cm) was used to stick the wrinkled tape at the box's bottom.


Then, i cut the box and the box's top

Flat box (before to be built) :


I layered the pattern with paper (Kit : Drawn to you)


Then, i built my box


I didn't cover the box's top but to decorate it i sticked a ribbon all around the top on each faces, and i finished the decoration with a bow.
I sticked a quare on the top with the same paper of the box

For the wrinkled mini-album :
I printed 6 photos (each photo is 5 by 5 cm), and i sticked them on the wrinkled tape.

My album was finish.
It's a very simple album to create

FANTASTIC!!!!!!! That's is SO adorable and cute!
This would also make a great gift! I love it Géraldine!   

The Pretty Pages post is scheduled!
