Mouse Chipboard Album

Hello!  It's Jennifer on the blog today to share a mini book I created! I've been missing traveling and vacations for the past year but its fun to document favorite trips!  We were able to take our kids to Orlando a few years ago and the Mouse Chipboard Album was perfect for my photos!

There are five total pages which I painted both sides with black acrylic paint.  Chipboard can also be inked, stamped, or covered in paper-or a combination of your choice!

I used my Silhouette to cut 5 3/4 inch circles to cover the main portion of my pages. For some like this, I  cut my circles in half and covered the bottom portion of the page. I also found it was best using my Beacon 3-in-1 Adhesive to adhere paper directly to the chipboard.

I also found that 4×4 or 4×5 photos fit best as the "head" portion of the album is approximately 6 inches. I did trim my pictures down to mat onto white cardstock as well as added patterned paper behind for extra color.

The album comes with two pre-drilled holes for you to place book rings or ribbon.  I  chose the latter and threaded some bright yellow ribbon around the top book ring for accent.
