My Christmas Album...

I realised that I have totally forgotten to put my finished Christmas Album on here!! I always finish my Christmas album after December. Usually I scrap about half way and then, due to often not having access to my supplies, and I leave the rest until the next year. My album this year was finished very early in February. I normally finish late February some time.

I made my album from scratch and my covers from scratch. I can't remember the exact size of the covers right now but I made it so the pages inside will hold 2 landscape 15x10 cm (6x4 inches) photos above each other.

The covers are made by chipboard and covered in Echo Park papers both inside and out. Then I added some Distress Stickles to some of the pattern in the paper.

My album is bound with the largest O-Wire and the Bind-It-All machine. Red wire. I kept my pages as non-bulky as I could and bound it as all the pages were finished.

The reason that I didn't bind it when I made the covers is that I was unsure how many pages I wanted for each day (depending on how many photos I wanted to feature) and what order I wanted my pages in (I have lots of varied sizes of pages).

I ended up using one page for most days but I also have days that have 5-7 (!) pages. I love, love, love working with the format of different sized pages and have done so for several of my Christmas albums in the past too. I know this won't be the last time either :)

Just like it's super nice to have finished the album from last Christmas, it's super exciting to get to start the album for *next* Christmas. Come December, I'll be so ready again and I already have plans for an album that I might use... :)))

Do you understand there is a 12 word sentence you can say to your crush... that will induce deep emotions of love and instinctual appeal for you buried inside his heart?

Because hidden in these 12 words is a "secret signal" that fuels a man's instinct to love, worship and protect you with all his heart...

12 Words That Fuel A Man's Love Response

This instinct is so built-in to a man's genetics that it will drive him to work better than before to love and admire you.

In fact, triggering this all-powerful instinct is so binding to having the best ever relationship with your man that the second you send your man a "Secret Signal"...

...You'll immediately notice him open his mind and heart to you in a way he's never experienced before and he'll recognize you as the only woman in the world who has ever truly attracted him.
