Anyone created a Matchbook Album Before?

Post by Scraprageous on Fri Jan 13, 2012 5:58 am

I am starting to work on 8 for hockey players (just to change it up from the word books last year). I ran short of paper bags so have to pick up a few more today. Just curious if anyone had created and had any ideas/reminders/hints about them.

If you haven't seen - they are really cute. Was thinking if I keep the outer embellishment kind of flat (prob[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] src="[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" quality="high" scale="exactfit">ably a skate with cool paper or something and their numbers), it would work on a shelf better than last year's album.

Made one of these for a Christmas present. Think if I do another I won't do the band and just embellish the cover. The band is not really neede it's more of a decoration than anything else. Took me a couple of hours total. Can do any theme. Love her projects. I buy the instructions only because her kits sell out so fast. Her videos are all on YouTube for free though. Her site is [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] .

Thanks! I have pieces cut out and ready to try assembly - can't wait to try it now. Glad they go together fairly quick!

I made one at Christmas for my SIL. She loved it! Just be careful with your scoring lines. I also made the insert pages just a smidge smaller that the pattern called for. It made getting them in and out of the pocket easier.
