Julie’s working with Chipboard....

Get a mini album base. There are lots of these chipboard based albums available in the store.

Paint any extra chip board - I have used some tim Holtz distress crackle - -mmmm tim holtz - http://www.countrypapercraft.com.au/index1.html

Cover the chip board – front and back with some patterned paper – I have used some beautiful daisy bucket paper - http://www.countrypapercraft.com.au/index1.html

Then work out where you want to put some photos

Add the painted chippes and some rubons – I have used the lovely new Kaiser ones - http://www.countrypapercraft.com.au/index1.html

Now put your album in order – I have used the plastic packet that the chip album came in to make a front and back cover

Now you need to put it all together – I have used one of my favourite tools - the crop a dile - http://www.countrypapercraft.com.au/index1.html

I have used hinged rings – they are great with bulky mini albums and lets me add ribbons etc to finish it all off.

Add some ribbons – to make it look pretty

Add a few extra embellishments and you're done…..
