Summer Cut File 7 of 24: Summer Geotags

The 7th of the 24 Days of Summer Cut Files was just sent out and here is a mini album made with today's Summer Geotags Cut File!

Design Team Member Amber Mitchell created this amazing mini album! She says, "Hi crafty friends! Amber Mitchell here on Paige's blog today to share with you a super fun mini album I created using the Splendid collection and the Summer Geotags Cut File from Paige's 24 Days of Summer Cut Files bundle.

To create the base of this mini album, I first cut six of the nine geotags included in this cut file from white cardstock using my Cricut machine. Next, I cut out six uncontoured pieces of the cut file to use as backing pieces for the ones with icons. I used six different patterned papers from the 12x12 Paper Pad for those pieces.

Next, I adhered clear acetate to the back of each cut file before machine stitching the tags and backing pieces together. This adds a dimensional effect to the icons and a clean, sheen look as well. I then punched holes on the left-hand side of all of the pages and added bright yellow binder rings to hold them together.

For some extra flair, I added a few smaller pieces from the Ephemera Die Cuts in-between the pages. This gives the album a bit more character by adding different sizes and elements to it, while also creating some spaces for journaling. To embellish the cover of this album, I used a handful of Floral Die Cuts and layered them along the right-hand side.

Throughout the album I used the 2x2 Paper Pads to create small photo mats. I layered Ephemera Die Cuts, Chipboard Stickers, and Cardstock Stickers around these mats to create texture and depth. I even fussy cut a few butterflies from the 6x8 Paper Pad to add to one of the pages. To create titles throughout the album, I used Thickers and larger Epoxy Stickers. For finishing touches I added small stickers from the 8-Page Sticker Book to some of the pages and added a mix of charms and tassels, including one of the Flower Charms to the binding.

This album was so fun to make and is so perfect for all types of summer memories! Be sure to check out this Summer Geotags Cut File, along with 23 more, in Paige's 24 Days of Summer Cut Files bundle!
