A Paperbag Album

I have always been attracted to the paperbag album for the longest ever time. It must be the size and how we can make something out of just a bunch of paperbags put together.

Its simple to make, with pockets on every other page to store a little something like a picture etc. I've used Hambly Studio heavy overlays as my pages in the pockets. But you could just keep tickets from a trip etc, you'd be surprise with what you can keep in the pockets, very handy, and not to mention quite interactive.

After adding patterned paper on every page, each page becomes more sturdy, so it makes it easier to heat emboss anything on it. I've used distressed embossing powder on some of the pages and UTEE on some. I'm loving my Tim Holtz Stamps, embossing powders, etc, as you can see here.

To add more texture to the page, I embossed Clear embossing powder is great too! (and so much you can do it) I've added rub ons + stamped Making Memories Number Foam Stamps.

This is probably the very few times, I've handwritten the journaling on the page! I've really seriously have got to start loving my handwritting, noticed how I've only handwritten on the page that goes in the pocket? Still trying..
