Several years ago I was fortunate to find a tiny 2 x2” album and
it just enchanting. It was filled with very tiny pictures and
embossed on the front were the words “Fairy Album”. And since I
have always enjoyed the tiny album, it seemed like a good
Inspiration for my own version of this little treasure. The “Fairy
Album” we will be creating will be about 3 x 3“ with a red velvet
covers, a resin filled bezel on the cover and embossed metal
“fairy album” plate. We will learn how to make our tiny collage in the
bezel, attach it to the cover. The pages will be made of mica sheets,
cut to size and also a variety of other materials you might like to use.
Then we will add eyelets to each page and the covers and bind it
all together for the final album.
