Before we get to the new artwork: a quick note on the NEW Sepia Easter Portraits Collage Sheet (inspired by Kristin’s adorable artwork below, with tiny portraits of goats photobombing a duck family’s album).
This new collage sheets includes a quartet of anthropomorphic animals in their Sunday best (from the Victorian era): a Boston Terrier, cat, lamb & rabbit (in multiple sizes plus the smallest also reversed). Should give you lots of options for a tiny dog to photobomb a cat album, or vice versa.
Plus the artwork and this new collage sheet led to a NEW SEPIA COLLAGE SHEET SALE! More info below.
Design Team Member Kristin Batsel has made a beautiful and clever) Animal Family Album (with a slipcase for her album… kind of like a larger version of the matchbox with slipcase cover and matching collage sheet in the February Kit).
I’ll let Kristin explain a bit about her project:
It’s been a while since I’ve done any real crafting, but this family album project had me remembering why I love it so much. Using collage sheets and a black Mini Photo Album Accordion Book, I made a little photo album with a slipcase. Just 3″ tall!
I used two copies of the Photo Album Covers Collage Sheet to make the cover of the book and the front of the slipcase. The collage sheet has a front and back image of the book covers. I used one image of the front covers for the front of the book, and cut the center part of the same front image out to place on the slipcase.
The spine of the book is only attached to the front cover. This way, the book can be opened out into an accordion, to view all the photos of the Easter family (plus several pics of that danged goat). The first and last pages are glued to the insides of the covers.
See the two page spreads in the photo below for examples of that goat!
Nice work, Kristin! A few more supplies are shown below; see everything Kristin used to make her Animal Family Album in the Supply List. And see more photos and a tutorial on Kristin’s blog post.
