Ok..lets get started….{ at the end of the project…you will have a TON of extras…that was my main goal for this kit club…to be able to do a project and then have leftovers for other things like layouts cards….anther mini book. and so-on…}
{PREP WORK}
You are going to be using 7 pages total. Take your album and cover it front and back with the pattern paper. One of the inserts cover the front and back with a solid color. Now you are going to have to become best friends with your xacto knife. Once all the pages are covered and trimmed go ahead and either ink or sand your edges. All my photos are 4x6 just trimmed up a little bit, and all there edges are sanded.
Cover and back cover:
{Supplies needed from kit: covered cover, chipboard alphabet, a purple rhinestone, plastic spider and the spider webbing.}
Take cover and adhere title to the front using the alphabet set. These letters are self adhesive but I would put on a little more just to be safe. I chose “candy, goblins & witches” for my title. This is your book though so you can change it up J.
Take the purple rhinestones and adhere one or more to the letters.
Take the webbing and spread it across the front cover…for a oh so spooky book. Adhere the plastic spider to the web.
Just make sure your back cover matches the pattern paper on the front cover.

*** now you do have one blank album insert left you can take that one and cover it and trim it in half to use in-between pages 9 & 10 for journaling**
Last step:
Take all your pages and using a foam brush and wet glue paint the edges of the book with the wet glue and then dip it into your glitter all the way around the pages. This puts the finishing touch on a very spooky but cute album.
Now pile all your pages and put the ring through and tie oodles and oodles of ribbon to the ring.
Take poison sticker and stick and adhere it through the ribbon.
