Morning all,....

 It's finally finished, my photo storage album that's for my niece who loves to travel.
It measures 10 1/4" x !0"x 4" and closes up as a box. I did use binding to help close the box but in hindsight it really doesn't need it as the box lid fits so well.
It is very sturdy as I used 2mm chipboard and decorated it throughout with the lovely "Cityscapes" collection from Graphic 45.
There are a total of 10 pages (20 sides) decorated both sides, with many additional flap pages, flip-flaps, pockets etc and each "page" has a large pocket which holds a large pull out  tab which can be used as a journal or more photo storage. I've only shown the front cover, side view and the album open at the first page so you can see how the sides drop down. I had so much fun doing it.
I will be moving forward with technology and will soon be able to show this and other albums onYouTube where you'll be able to see them properly.


More news...........


I will be demonstrating on Hochanda on Monday 20th (7 am  &1 pm ) using magic markers to decorate Johanna Basford 12" x 12" art canvasses which are fab!!
 I can't put one down once I start and have to set an alarm as I get so engrossed.

It's a busy week ahead as I will be back on Hochanda Friday 24th (8 am & 2 pm) demonstrating products for "A touch of Eleganza" using stamps and papers from Studiolight.
 I'll be posting sneaky peeks during the week.
 A huge thank you to my crafty friends who are helping to make up some wonderful samples, we're having such a good time when we all get together, and its amazing how many different ideas happen as we "spark" off each other.
Thanks for dropping by and have a lovely weekend,
Maggie

    1. Hi
      so glad you liked them. They are so much fun to make but very addictive once you start. At present I don't do courses but am looking into that possibility and also a you tube channel. I live in Cambridgeshire, and you can contact me via email: mightymaggieartycrafty@gmail.com
      hope this helps,
      Maggie
