Amy Tangerine Sketchbook Full Collection at AC Digitals! HAD to make a Delightful Goodness Mini with it.

Give me some fun elements and bright colors in the Winter and I’m inspired time and time again.  That’s what happened when I got to play with Amy Tangerine’s Sketchbook Collection from AC Digitals.  I loved it so much I had to make a mini with it, so I could see as much of this energetic collection as I can during this cold, wintery February. 

Below are several peeks into my “Delightful Goodness” mini album which, by the way, was printed and cut using my Silhouette Portrait—all of it.  Also, the cover was cut from chipboard using my Silhouette Portrait.  Yep.  Chipboard.

The closure for the album is called a string-tie closure.  Here’s the link to the tutorial I used as a guide to put that together:  http://raspberryruffles.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-string-tie-closures.html

This was the first time I utilized Heidi Swapp’s back-to-back book binding method and I loved everything about it.  It feels wonderful when you’ve placed them all in the book together, very solid, and first and foremost, easy-peasy.  Here’s a link to that very helpful video:  http://www.mycraftchannel.com/Shows/Create-to-Remember-with-Heidi-Swapp/Back-To-Back-Book-Binding/

The album looks like I spent a ton of time on it but it was actually easily put together.  After all, it was designed in Silhouette Studio, so I knew how everything was going to go together once printed.  I didn’t take a lot of time searching for photos to put in it nor did I have a theme in mind.  I just wanted to make a mini and that’s what I did.  This collection was perfect for that reason.  I’ve been admiring it for some time and was thrilled to find out it was going digital.  Hope you like!

  2. Thanks, Mindy! The chipboard works very well. I was pleasantly surprised as I've heard you just couldn't do it with a Silhouette. The more I use this machine, the more I find out I can, can, can.
