Handmade Vintage Distressed Wedding Guest Book!

I am loving this wonderfully large guest book. It is made with room for instant photos at the wedding, plenty of room for guests to sign and pockets for lots of extra goodies.

It can be used as a wonderful memory book after the wedding. How wonderful to have a book to fill with photos, journaling and it will already have the guests' names inside.

It has pockets to insert photos, blank pages included to add photos or some of your special embellishing from your wedding. If has plenty of room for bulky items also.

Made with a hard back cover and spine (chipboard covered with designer paper, put together with very strong duck tape binding which was then covered with designer paper and burlap. It turned out just lovely!

Handmade burlap flowers are used on the front cover along with a handstamped "Guests" book plate.

The book itself is 12 x 12 with a 4 inch spine! It is large and in charge!!! The pages are appx. 12 x 8.5 or so. You have plenty of room in this one!

You're going to love the closure clamps with the chain and charms. Easy to remove for the wedding and then clamp back on for display. Love it!

Lavender blush mini album

Love this one. It's on eBay this week.
It is a lavender mauve cover with lavender, blue, mauve and plum papers inside. It has 12 pages, not including the inside front and back cover.
The spine has a mauve and lavender flower and feather embellishing. The feathers are both mauve and lavender. The flower is mauve with lavender tones and highlights.
The lace along the top edge is lavender.

This French Country Mini Album is just adorable. Using Chicken Wire, Corrugated Cardboard, Gesso, a flower and a Rooster Cut-out, I created a large tag. I inserted a smaller tag with a mini clothes pin behind the chicken wire. This tag can be removed to journal or add a photo on back. The large tag is inserted behind a White Picket Fence along the bottom border of the front cover.

It is held closed with a chain and two clips. The chain is even embellished with dangling charms!

The Album includes about 35 pages in all:

·         Front and back cover

·         14 inside pages

·         6 large tags inserted inside each page

·         2 fold up mats giving space for extra photos

·         The mini within a mini has 5 double sided pages with tags inserted giving you a total of 15 in it.

Also, smaller tags are included within the album in pockets and such.

 

I had two goals for this lovely mini:

1.        To create and include two handmade stick pins for each two page spread

2.       To insert something dangling (charms or such) on each two page spread.

 

The paper stack used is the Rooster Provincial, along with a single paper purchased at Hobby Lobby, and a couple papers from another paper stack.

 

Included is a host of embellishments.

·         Handmade flowers

·         Handmade stickpins

·         Prima and Recollection Florals

·         Flowers from Michaels

·         Handmade Charms

·         Ribbon

·         Trim

·         Lace

·         Chicken Wire

·         Mini clothes pin

·         Buttons

·         Beads

·          Chain

·         String

·         Burlap

 

There are lots of photos included. Hope you enjoy them.
