Mini Prim Rose Journal

0
A few days ago I shared with you the Primrose Mini Album that I created using Marion's digi downloads.  I loved this mini so much that I decided to make one in ATC size and keep it next to my computer as a quote book.


On the cover I used ATC sized sticky backed canvas and painted it with Santa Baby and Creme de Chocolate Glimmer Mist.  I used Marion's Vintage Trinkets for decorations and one of the new Tim Holtz phrase plates.

REDUCING YOUR IMAGES
To print the image in ATC size - in the Printer Dialog box change the Page Sizing to: Multiple pages and Pages per sheet to 1x2. Make sure the orientation is also set to Portrait. This will reduce the size of the images to half the size and give you the ATC size.



Make sure you do this with all of your add-ons, covers, and embellishments in order for them to print to scale.

Here are the two box side by side to show the difference in sizes. 





I think I want to make one of these each time I do a monthly journal. Then at the end of the year, I can share them with my scrappy friends for Christmas presents.

Primrose Mini Album

0
This week I decided to play around with the latest digi journal from Marion Smith Designs.  This little Prim Rose Journal is so cute it measures 4x6 completed.  I combined this Journal with the Journey kit to create my extra signature pages.  The two kits work so well together.

I printed my covers on grunge paper and they have a really nice suede feel to them.  They were mounted onto black chipboard for additional stability.  Then I decorated the cover with a Tim Holtz key hole, and one of Marion's Vintage trinkets.



Here is a step by step video of the completed book.
