PART TWO - Camera Album

Welcome back for Part Two of

Smile....you're on Candid Camera.

 

As promised, here is the little album

that was tucked inside the Polaroid Camera.

 

There are tons of photos to show it off.

 

The outside of the album was made from

black chipboard and it was decorated

with Bo Bunny's Mama Razzi 2 paper

and embellies.

 

 

For this part, we only had the class kit that my sister got

along with the dimensions of the base album....

only three pictures - so it was a little difficult to figure

out exactly what she did and how she put it

together - so this basically has our spin on it.

What a fabulous creation she came up with though!!!

If you missed the previous post, you may want to

go back and see that first.   The entire project

was created by Magdalena for a class

given at Stamping Details in Poway, Calif.

 

 

 

Here's the little album....

too cute, right!!!

The little black "glass" piece was another

piece of black chipboard globed with

Crystal Accents.

The little Polaroid Camera was made

out of cardstock and attached to

the album flap.

There's a little plastic bead attached

with cording to the side.

 

 

The album itself was made from black chipboard.

 

 

Here's the front cover with the flap opened.

 

This is a view of the back of the album.

 

For the pages, I'm going to show them

undecorated first and then the decorated

page beneath it.  The photos were

all from our recent Caribbean Cruise.

 

 

Here's the initial view when the album

is first opened up.

 

This is the inside of the front cover with a

pocket on the left side and a flip-up flap on the right.

 

 

Here's the pocket with photos.

We left out of Brooklyn, so got

a great shot of the new World Trade Center

and lower Manhattan.

 

Here's the front of the flip-up flap with

our welcoming champagne!

The postage stamp is from a Hero Arts

boxed set and the little New York oval

 image is from Hampton Arts.

I added a bit of color with my Copics. 

 

 

Here's a shot of the first flip-up page

 

 

 

Here's the inside decorated...

sorry the photo is a little dark....

Dennis & I on the bottom and our

friends, Carl & Mary on the top.

 

 

Here's the next page opened up.   As you can see

there are two flaps - one on each side.

 

When they're opened up, there's also a pocket

and two "polaroid photos"

I created these from glossy cardstock, and added

the black square from matt finish cardstock

on the back...  when you see the photos

they'll be on the opposite side.

These were not part of the class kit,

these I made up on my own :)

 

 

Here's the right side panel and flap.

 

Here's the left side flap and pocket with the

fake polaroids.

These were from Grand Turk in the Turks, Caicos.

 

 

Here are the outside flaps decorated.

 

 

 

Here's the next page.

A pocket on the left

A pocket in the center

A flap on the right side with

a pocket on the inside of the flap

 

There's a pull-out panel on the left pocket.

Three "polaroids" in the center and

a little envelope in the right pocket

that I filled with our "cruise cards"

photo copied and layered on CS.

 

I've since added little block letters to the small

envelope that says "tickets".

 

Here's the left flap pocket with

a photo of our table mates from dinner

and the center pocket filled with the 3 fake

polaroids from formal night.

 

Here you can see the front and backs of my

"fake" polaroids.

 

 

The next page opened up has a

pocket on the left and a flap on the right

 

Here's the pocket insert and the

inside pocket on the right flap with a tag.

I'm missing the photo from the back side

of the right flap... sorry.

 

 

 

This photo shows the back of the flap from

the previous page with our wait staff.

The pocket with it's pull out panel

has a photo from Curacao.

 

Here's the inside panel with a view of Curacao

and a view of the pull out tag from the right flap pocket.

 

 

The next page has a blank on the left,

a pocket in the center and a

flap on the right

 

I replaced the two "fake" polaroids with

a pull-out insert instead as you will

see below.

 

You can see the beautiful beach along 7-Mile Beach

in Grand Cayman on the left.

The right side shows the back of the right

flap and I added my own touch with

an accordion attachment.

The photo is a "veggie" monkey.

 

Here's the replacement pull-out

and another view of the beautiful beach.

 

 

Here are a couple of the photos from the

accordion pull-out....  

One shows (not clearly here - sorry)

the Halloween display in the atrium

and the second shows the

board in the Casino - I made the finals

for the slot tournament

So sorry - did not win :(

 

 

 

 

 

Here's the other side of the accordion file.

Here's the veggie monkey again and

a view of the Caribbean Princess on

the outside of the flap on the last page.

 

Are you tired yet????

We're on to the last page and back cover.

 

 

The left side of the back is a flap.

 

The back of the album is a pocket.   You can

see that I swapped out the insert panel for the

previous page and replaced it

with 4 "polaroids".

 

Here's the left side flap raised up.

 

 

Photos on the left side were various shots

during the cruise.  The outside of the flap

was a shot of the Caribbean Princess.

You can see a part of it below.

 

Here are the 4 "polaroids" from our

visit to the ruins at Tulum...  What a beautiful place!

It's right on the ocean.... we docked at Cozumel and took

the ferry over for the tour.

 

The stamp on the album spine is another

Hero Arts image colored with Copics.

 

I hope you're not too worn out!

 

This was a lot of fun to make, but it took us DAYS

to try and figure out.  Hopefully, we did Magdalena

justice with our end result and our own twists on her pattern.

 

Not sure I'd ever make another, but

it really looks cool on my shelf

and it's a nice reminder of our cruise.

 

Thanks for letting me share.
