Heart Confetti mini album

Hi,

Good morning.  Today and I am going to show you how to make this simple heart confetti pocket mini album using the January Love Potion #9 Scrapbook kit, from the Paper Bakery.

Gather up any left over scraps that you may have from your January Love Potion #9 Scrapbook kit, ephemera pieces, small confetti type punches, sequins and transparency paper (vellum paper works great for this too)!

Using your punches make confetti out of left over scraps that you have from your kit.

Open up the Paper Bakery January cut file in your Silhouette software program.

I decided that I wanted to make my book using the heart file that is included in the cut file.  Delete all other shapes and enlarge the heart.  Using the cut tool remove the inside of the heart.

Duplicate the heart shape and run it through your Silhouette.  I cut my pockets out of transparency paper but you can use vellum for this too.

Place the two pieces together and use a sewing machine to stitch up the sides.  Leave an open space towards the top to drop in your confetti and sequins.

After filling your heart shapes up with confetti and sequins,  use your sewing machine to stitch the of the heart up.

Using a hole punch, punch through your heart page and add a jump ring.  Add additional pages and ephemera pages to complete your album.
