Make your self a Joyful Christmas Album
Morning everyone, I hope your Christmas preparations are going well. For 25 years our Christmas tree, decorations and cards haven't gone up until after Oli's birthday on 17th. However, as he lives in his own place these days Harry and I decided that Saturday (14th) was the day to get our house into the Christmas spirit. When Oli called by on Sunday the first thing he said was " you can't put the tree up 'till after my Birthday' ! I had to smile.
Anyway were all in the Christmas mood here and I'm really excited to be sharing a new Joy to the World boxed album with you today. The featured album has been made in our laser cut Box It kit and altered in papers from the Joy to the World paper collection by Graphic 45.
There are four interactive pages inside this fun album, all with interactive elements, pull outs, pockets and pull out photo holders, giving lots of room for your favourite photos and ephemera from the festive season. I love the layered look of all the papers on the pages as you open the album and the way the papers work together. Here's a few more pics:
I used papers from the 12 x 12 Collection Pack, 12 x 12 Patterns and Solids, 8 x 8 paper pad and Ephemera/Journaling Card pack to make up the album.
The album can be made in two ways, in our Box it Kit (featured) which comes as a flat packed kit and is assembled using our Signature Black Construction Tape or in standard 8 1/4" x 8 1/4" square album covers and spine. these can be assembled in the traditional wrapped way or with our Signature Black Construction Tape. The inside of the album fits perfectly in both options.
The photo corners were punched from a retired Stampin' Up punch.
To see the walkthrough of the album click on the video below:
If you love the look and would like to make this fab project we have a number of options available.

Hi Clare, our decorations and tree aren’t going up until tomorrow (19th). A bit late this year as we haven’t had the time. Thanks for the inspiration this year and a Merry Christmas to you. Kath x
