Making Spirits Bright inchie album

3/14/24 Top 3 at Penny’s Paper-Crafty Challenge Blog!

Hey everybody! Happy first day of March… time is flying by and I’m telling ya – it’ll be Christmas before we know it! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog and I’m super stoked to share my DT inspiration project for MLCCB #55 – Anything Christmas Goes! I mentioned a while back that I’ve started a new collection of inchie albums (or mini books) and have made several. They are so fun and so stinkin’ cute! I have used Gecko Galz inchies for all of them because they are super cute images and the perfect 1″ square size!

I printed the Gecko Galz Snow Much Fun Jewel It digital sheet on CutCardStock Basis 80# White cardstock and punched the eight images I wanted to use with an EK Success 1″ square punch. I crafted the album base from CutCardStock Basis 80# White 12×12 cardstock and covered it with a patterned paper from the Hot Off The Press Christmas Memories 6×6 double-sided papers. These HOTP paper packs always include several sheets of ephemera which coordinate beautifully with the papers, which I love. So I cut a piece of ephemera for the front cover and added a green gemstone. I edged the cover and pages with a copper chrome marker from Let’s Resin which completed the project.
