Flip Flop Album Class

We had our Flip Flop Album class. I promised all my gals, they would get their pictures on my blog. Hmmm - they didn't seem to like the idea, but I keep my promises, so here they are. Didn't they do a great job? We did the class in two hours and they all came out beautiful!!

More Flip Flop Albums

I have had fun using some different designer papers for the flip flop albums. Thought I would share these, so you, who want to attend my class on May 24th, can get some ideas.

Groovy Guava Designer Prints Flip Flop Album



This album is done with the prints designer series papers sold on page 171. I used Groovy Guava - and depending on which colors you want, this could be done any in of the colors. And I matched up with the Groovy Guava Textured Card Stock. I used the large white flower from the Pretties Kit and sponged it with groovy guava ink - then cut out a 3/4" circle and adhered that in the center with a large half pearl from the Pretties Kit. For the inside doors, I punched using the 5 petal flower punch with the Groovy Guava textured cardstock and then mounted a smaller flower from the Pretties Kit along with a rhinestone brad in the center.

Spring Silhouettes Flip Flop Album



This album uses the Spring Silhouettes Designer Paper (page 170) and Soft Sky Textured Card Stock. I added just a touch of color with the flower from Live Your Dreams Stamp Set (Occasions Minis 2008). I just love the soft colors in the pack of designer papers. Interestingly enough I set out to make a boho album and the pack I chose instead was Spring Silhouettes. This paper really resembles beautiful wall paper and I was pleased how it turned out!!

Tart & Tangy Flip Flop Album

The Tart and Tangy and Summer Picnic coordinating stamp set and paper has SO many possibilities. I went with the more orange and green shades from the set this time, but next will be the reds. Although it's hard to tell just from these pictures, I used Only Orange and Wild Wasabi Textured card stock for the base colors. A nice change. So when you are deciding which colors to use, you can mix and match!!

Flip Flop Albums

I made a couple more Flip Flop Albums - I wanted to show some in a more masculine set of designer papers, in case someone wants to make one for Father's Day.

These are made for my twin sons, Sam and Dan. They are identical twins, so I found some of their old "twin" pictures to put in their albums

Here's Dan's Album









I used East Coast Prep Design Paper along with Tempting Turquoise Textured Cardstock. If you haven't seen the tutorial yet for the Flip Flop Album, you can click here and go to my blog archive and see the tutorial. I do have the directions without pictures in a word document. Just email me at janinpb@communitybroadband.com and I'll be happy to send them. Or leave a comment on this post with your email and I'll send them.

And here is the second one for Sam.









For this album I used Jersey Shore Designer Paper and Wild Wasabi Textured Card Stock. The albums are like in their pictures.

These albums can hold up to 9 - 4 x 6" prints and more if you cut them down.
