Turning 30, LeAnne writes;

Here are the photos of the 30th Album that I recently did as a surprise.

Danielle’s favourite colour is blue, hence the colour scheme. I was really pleased at how well the Kaiser Cocco and the Heidi Swapp memories ribbon went together.

I covered two extra pages made from chipboard that I graduated out in size about 1/2 inch each (unfortunately I don’t have a photo of that)

The album is wooden and comes complete with the number, a front cover and a back cover all with 5 predrilled holes. Unfortunately the albums do not have the rings included so I used Heidi Swapp rings.

The 30 is detachable, I painted the front of it with metallic paints. Got out the Crop o dile and put a hole right through the wood so that I could attach the flowers with the gem brad. To tidy it up I put a photo behind the zero and then covered the back.Inked it all up.

As I was using a blue and brown colour scheme I used two different distress inks throughout, the faded denim which is blue and the walnut which is brown.

The album came together very quickly and the birthday girl was very happy with her surprise!
