My Girl Vintage Paper Bag Album

I loved working with this paper!!! It's called "Vintage Yummy" by Sassafras Lass. This paper describes my style perfectly! Vintage!!!!! Here is a link to Sassafras Lass website if you wish to see the entire collection.

My local Scrapbook store, where I work, carried this line. As soon as I finished this album I took it to the store and it has been displayed there ever since.
The fabric binding is strips of fabric which has been ripped and tied to book rings to give the album a playful look.




My favorite sheet of paper is filled with small frames with beautiful vintage images. White lace border around the photo mat to match the framed pictures in the background.



This album is supposed to be about the life of your daughter so these first two pages are for baby photos.


I enjoyed using bright colors for this album! Orange is not a color I use on anything but Halloween so it was great to be able to use it here.


Tulle is great for scrapbooking. It can be knotted like on this page or gathered and made into a ruffle border.


I used images of little girls from old sewing patterns to match the albums style.


These girls are from a vintage children's book.


I have used foam dots which are available at any craft store to give the small frames dimension.


An added tag gave more detail to my album.


Another lovely girl from a sewing pattern. The polka dot paper is called "Dotted Swiss" by Bazzill.


Stapling fabric to your pages is a great way to avoid the mess of regular glue.


A vintage gold buckle gives a great touch to finish off the album.



On the back cover I have used Prima's Pearl swirls for an added whimsy!

Thank you for looking at my album!
