Vintage Style Wedding Album


Hi there! I'm here today with my latest project created for Clear Scraps!


This is a vintage style wedding album which I put together 
The album includes 2 acrylic pages and
 2 heavy chipboard pages and measures approximately 6.75 x 8 inches.


I found a beautiful digital vintage wedding paper set on Etsy, chose which of the papers to work with, downloaded and printed.


Starting with the first page, I removed the protective coverings and applied an adhesive sheet to the backside.

Wanting to add a little color I applied a sheet of very pale yellow vellum to the adhesive.

The vellum was trimmed with scissors and a craft knife.

A template of the heart was made and I cut a frame out of a white metallic card stock and adhered over the heart area.



I pulled out the pattern paper for the front of the album.

The lower left corner was fussy cut.

Then I chose a paper for the backside of the front page, traced the fussy cut piece for the front on a corner and fussy cut. 

I adhered the corner pieces to the front and backside along the bottom and right side, leaving the middle open to form a pocket.  Using the heart template a solid heart was cut and adhered to the upper left corner. A purple heart frame was cut and layered over the solid heart.


Some embellishments, die cut words were added.

I made 2 photo mats for the pocket on the backside.

Moving on to the front of the second page, I traced onto the backside of patterned paper.

Fussy cut and adhered.

I fussy cut a corner piece and adhered along the bottom and side edge and left the center open for a pocket.

A photo mat was put together to fit the pocket.

The backside of page 2 was traced onto a patterned paper, cut and adhered.

I created a triple fold piece for holding more photos. 2 pieces of card stock were scored in half. Adhering one edge of each piece together along the bottom and sides forms a pocket to hold tags for more photos or journaling. I did punch a half circle last the top of the front of the pocket.

A mat was added to the back the trifold piece and then adhered to the page.


For page 3, I removed the protective film. Patterned paper was cut and matted before adhering to each side.  

For the front, I fussy cut a floral corner from another piece of patterned paper and adhered to the top right corner creating a pocket to tuck a photo. A photo mat was cut and added.

I created a pocket on the lower part of the back side. A fussy cut floral corner was added to the lower right corner. 3 photo mats were made to fit into the pocket.


The front of page 4 is covered with a solid color piece of card stock with a folded edge. I added a floral border to the left side.

2 photo mats were adhered to the left side with a little bling added.

I added a floral border to the opened right side creating a pocket to hold 2 more photo mats.

With the folded portion closed to the inside, I added another border to the right side creating another pocket. A photo mat was made to fit in the pocket.


The back of the album is covered with a matted floral paper.

The album is put together with book rings.

I added a few flowers to the front.

Ribbons were tied to the book rings to finish.
