Hello Norway - A minialbum with the Time for Tea collection

Hello everyone, and Happy Easter. It is Kirsten here, showing a spring minialbum with the Time for Tea paper collection, photos from Norway and lots of dies. The LDRS dies are very versatile, and I wanted to give you some inspiration on how to use them in a minialbum.

The album


The flowers and the leaves on the front has been created using the Fancy flowers dies set


I also wanted to use one of the new dies as an embossing folder at the back of the album. This was done by using by cutting two Lovelette dies cuts, gluing them together, and using this as an embossing folder on white cardstock. This works perfectly as an embossing folder. The heart has been cut out with the heart from the same dies set.



At the oppsite side, I used the dragon fly embossing folder from the Timeless embossing folder set. 

The inside of the album


The album has five pages, decorated on both sides.


The first page is an introduction to the theme of the album, photos from Norway.


Hello, has been cut out from a photo of the mountains in Norway, using the Hello word die. I thought that using the die on a photo, would create a bit more impact.


The flower photo has been cut out with a circular die from the fancy circle die set. The fence and the dragon flies at the back is from the Allifair build a card die set. The flowers at the back, and the text stamps are from the Magnolia splendor stamp set. These stamps are fantastic to use as background stamps.


These pages are showing Norway during the winter time. We have a long and dark winter in Norway, but it can be very beautiful. 


This photo is showing snow flakes on my car window a winter morning. I have used a die from the Fancy circle die set to cut out the photo. The back snowflakes have been cut with the qute Snowy day border die. This die is fantastic for creating background patterns on those winter cards or layouts.


This squirrel came up on my window last winter. The photo has been cut using the Fancy circle die set and the tags has been cut with the tags from the Fancy Rectangles & Layers die set. The background swirl stamps are from the Magnolia splendor stamp set.
