MYO Album

In Scrapbook Inspiration this month was an article to make you own albums using the ring binder mechanism which gave me an idea, I had a deep A5 ring binder so I added mounting board to the covers by sticking them on with carpet double sided tape. then covered it all in material padded out with wadding added a ribbon on the front cover for decoration. I now have a unique 8x8 album for my layouts of my new grandson-to-be. I will make a 12x12 one as well for his layouts and one with different material suitable for Daniel now that he is two.

What a fab idea! Are you going to use page protectors? Will that work with the existing holes? I'd be interested to know, as I want to try this myself!

Great idea Mary!!!

A place for me to put the pictures of layouts I have done that I am pleased with, to put in the poems I write and to add snippets of things that have caught my eye
