Happy Valentine's Day

One associates the month of February with love, Valentine’s Day, boxes of chocolates and the color red. To keep in with the theme, I created this vintage rose album. Hopefully it sparks a little romance, bringing you back to remember a special person, place and event.

Supplies Used:
Helmar Acid Free Glue
Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots
Zutter 6x6 Bamboo Spine Cover-All
Red ¾” Owire
Red Velour Paper by K&Company, Flower Pattern Paper Source Unknown
Bazzill Cardstock
Hand Crafted Mulberry Paper Flowers by The Natural Paper Company
Tulle by Michael’s
Antique White Label Holder by Making Memories
Purple Cows Trimmer w/scalloped blade

To create this album, I used fabric that was designed for scrapbooking. I cut two strips of fabric to 6 x 8 wrapping it around the album cover. I mitered the edges allowing a clean fold around the corners. I cut a scalloped edge on the red velour fabric and placed a strip on the spine of the Cover-All. Helmar Acid Free Adhesive was used on all the fabric to attach it to the cover. The 6x6” inner pages were cut using the Zutter DreamKutz tool. The pages were bound together using the Zutter Bind-it-All and ¾” Red O’wires.
Wishing you a day filled with love from family and friends!

Making plans for that special day...



It’s time to celebrate our relationships, friendships and love. In celebration of Valentine’s Day, I wanted something special for my photos. I created this vintage looking heart box using Helmar Adhesives and several of their preferred vendors’ products: Creative Impressions, Inc Bits of Bling, Elle’s Studio Tags, and Pink Paislee Love Potion Cupid Paper Collection. I love how the combination of all of these products turned an old candy box destine for the trash into a romantic keepsake treasure!

Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive
Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots
Chain - Hardware Store
Creative Impressions, Inc. Bits of Bling
Crochet Flowers – Source Unknown
Elle’s Studio Vintage Label Cut Outs
Maya Road Chipboard Butterfly
Making Memories Velour Flower and Heart Paperclip

Pink Paislee Love Potion Cupid Collection
Prima Flowers

Rub-ons by Narratives by Karen Russell



I covered the box lid, bottom and sides of the heart box using papers from Pink Paislees Love Potion Cupid Collection. I applied all of the papers using Helmar Acid Free Glue. I added some lace around the side of the box using Helmar 450 QuickDry Adhesive. Embellishments were added to the box lid using Helmar Liquid Scrapdots. The mixture of crochet flowers, Prima Flowers with Bits of Bling in the centers from Creative Impressions, Inc. gave a vintage look. I love Elle’s Studio Vintage Labels; I just cut one out, distressed with sandpaper and applied a rub-on title. For the album, I used the paper lining as my template cutting heart shape pages form Pink Paislees Love Potion Cupid Collection. The set is complete and ready to fill with your anniversary, wedding, or Valentine’s Day memories.
