The Inspired Notebook

In the Studio

I crafted this mini book for my mother in my studio. Many of these photographs we captured together while traveling the countryside. She's not a photographer but she sure is great a spotting barns and she is always ready to find another.  When we get back after a day of shooting, she's so excited to share our captures.  Thanks Mom for being my biggest fan!

D.I.Y.
1. Re-size your images to 2x3 inch and drop into the aged ivy wallets
2. Create a new blank 8.5x11 sheet and place 8 filled wallets on the sheet
3. Print on white card stock and cut
4. Slice 2 sheets of 8x10 color card stock in half, fold, and sew or staple together
5. Glue your wallets inside the mini book and embellish however you wish

  10. A great way to actually print out (my mom is always wondering why she never gets to see actual photos!) your captures and share. Super idea, Kristy. :)
