Well, I'm thrilled to say that this little album is my first finished handmade Christmas gift for 2014! My daughter recently moved away from home and has emailed me asking for several recipes, so I thought it would be nice for her to have her favourites compiled together, and this Cutout Cover Mini Album was absolutely perfect!

                            

 I painted the incredibly cute cover piece with charcoal grey acrylic paint, then stamped with Versamark ink and embossed it with black detail embossing powder to give it dimension and shine.

                                

I used mostly Basic Gray's Out of Print line to complete the album pages, which you can see here. I left the last page blank for her to add new recipes she discovers (we are both avid bakers and cake decorators!)

           

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I wish you a sweet and creative day!
