A Proper Gentlemen Album

I have another scrapbook for your inspiration today.  This one was a commission for my hubby's brother.  His 65th birthday is coming up in two weeks and since we cannot attend the party I thought it would be a good idea to send a scrapbook for all the great pictures and stories.

The front cover is designed to look like an Ipad. I used Paper Accents chalkboard vinyl for the center so that we can write notes on the cover.  After I took the picture I added an Apple symbol.


For the body of the book I used Kathy Orta's All Occasions Mini as my inspiration for the construction.  The scrapbook is 8 1/2 by 10 1/2 with pages that are 8x10.


Inside front and page 1 - two generous pockets.


Page 2-3 - two page tag insert.

Page 4-5
Page 6-7.
Page 8-9 - two page tag insert.
Page 10-11.

My niece is planning to add photos of my brother-in-law, and poems and stories from the party.  I am including a bunch of 5x8 tags as well.
Inside back cover.
