Sandrine's Coaster Album - pics 2012

Hello Bloggers
Sandrine's little girl is the star in this album

Sandrine explains:


'"An Ode to a Summer's Day" is such a pretty collection, I did not have any trouble finding inspiration. The soft yellow tones in the papers remind me of my little girl's beach blond hair, so I decided to create a mini album with my 10 favourite photos of her in 2012. I mainly used yellow, green and beigy colours throughout the album, I wanted to give it a very soft touch. I also wanted to add some funky elements to my overall design such as banners, polaroid photo frames and some personal touches such as dry embossing and punched circles.


Love the square doilies, I cut the borders off and used as accent throughout the album



Love the ferns in the papers! And I also cut some of the words out as embellishments!


Here I used a doily for my background instead of dry embossing: 



I cut some triangles out of Meg's paper to make little banners, I repeated this element throughout the album to tie the design together!




Here I joined the green leaves together to create a flower accent!

Each page is wonderful - love the way you have styled your book so that each page is different but remains part of the hole.  The chippies are fab as are your choice of embellishments with flowers, rosettes & banners.
