Garden Scroll Book

Time flies during the summer months and it's already time for the Club Scrap July Blog Hop. You'll have to "scroll" down and take a look at what I put together for today!

Club Scrap's Vintage Botany Collection used to create this Scroll Book

If you've just come from DebDuzScrappin you are in the right place, if you'd like to start at the beginning of the hop, click HERE.

The video below takes you on a 23 second tour of the Vintage Botany Scroll Book, enjoy!




The July Collection has a beautiful Vintage Botany theme. It didn't take long to become one of my favorites!

Scroll Book Created With Club Scrap's Vintage Botany Collection 
This month I've created a Garden Scroll Book.

Club Scrap's Vintage Botany Garden Scroll Book
To make this sweet little book, I followed these instructions, with a few modifications.


The book is petite in size measuring 2.5x3.5"and is 1" deep, it features a double-dowel scrolling feature. The scroll is permanently mounted inside the box and it can be rolled up and down to reveal a stamped sentiment!


The image on the scroll is from the Vintage Botany Jumbo Stamp sheet.


Flower images from Club Scrap's Cherry Blossoms Jumbo UM stamp set.
I took a photo of all the little parts and pieces prior to assembly. It is hard to believe these little pieces turn into a gorgeous little keepsake.


This Garden Scroll Book will make a lovely gift for a dear friend. I know she will love it!

Thanks for scrolling though the blog hop with me.
Enjoy!

Garden Shed Blog Hop

Welcome to my stop on Club Scrap's Garden Shed Blog Hop.
If you would like to start at the beginning of the hop and see the list of participants, please click HERE.


I've created a handmade box that houses a kettle stitched mini book with Club Scrap's beautiful Garden Shed collection. The finished box measures 5-3/4 x 3-1/2 x 2". The book inside measures 2-1/2 x 5" and contains twelve stitched signatures.





These were the basic assembly steps:

1. Trim Book Board pieces to size with a utility knife, cutting mat and CS® Grid Ruler. (Make several firm passes with the knife for each cut.)


2. Adhere the boards with GCS® Bookbinding Glue to create the box base and lid.


3. Wrap the lid and base with the Club Stamp Quad Print.


4. Decorate the pages of the book with stamped images from your stash, and stitch them together with waxed linen thread.


5. Decorate the cover of the book and the box with Garden Shed UM stamp images.


Now the fun of adding photos to the inside pages of the mini album comes in. 

I love the Garden Shed Collection!

Next on the hop is the talented Debbie at DebDuzScrappin. Go see what she's up to this month.

Thank you for stopping by,

Club Scrap's Big Deal Blog Hop

Welcome Big Deal Blog Hoppers!

This month I've put together a Glue-Free Cover Accordion Mini Album made from February's Big Deal Collection. By the way, this blog hop originates at Club Scrap Creates if you would like to start at the beginning.




1. Start with (2) 3x4" Matte Board Covers, (2) 3x7" Vertical Paper Covers, and (2) 6x4" Horizontal Paper Covers. Use a bone folder to score and fold paper around matte board for both horizontal and vertical paper wrap.



2. While holding the vertical wrap in place on one side of the matte board, slide the horizontal wrap between the matte board and vertical wrap, covering the other side of the matte board.




3. Cut (5) 12x4" strips for the inside accordion and score every 3".


4. Attach papers together to create accordion and cut pop-outs for added interest.


5. Trim first and last panels of accordion to aid in sliding into front and back covers.


6. Decorate accordion. I stamped the card suits from the Big Deal Collection UMs and cut them out for a fun embellishment. 




7. Slide accordion into front and back covers.



8. Use Ivory Cut-Apart to create belt for holding accordion mini album.


Next on the hop is Cathy at The Artful Gamut. Go check out her project now!

Thanks for looking, and I wish you a creative day.
