Album in a box
 

Thanks so much for taking the time to post this for us! What a great project!

thank you so much, i cant wait to try it.

If she can, she might try converting the WORD doc it is in into a PDF format, and that would enable her to upload it as an attachment, and make it easier for folks to download?

Or, if she emails the WORD doc to me, I can do it and upload it for her here in this thread, if that would be of any help. JLMK! :)

She did a beautiful job on it--just wonderful!

Wow! That is pretty cool! Thanks for sharing the pattern. Man, I wish I had more time to do all these cool crafty things!!!

just subscribing to this thread. :)

thanks for sharing this!

Julie how do you change it? I have a word template that I did for the "Fathers Shirt Bag" that I can't get uploaded. Its to big.

Ok I was playing around and re-did this in a word doc file. Hopefully it's all correct. I re-checked the measurements a couple of times, but I have not made one yet :)

What a happy camper I am to find this today. I saw these done by my demonstrator using the Scrappin' Kits and they were sooo cute. Thanks for sharing.

This is just great!!!! I saw kits similar to this at a scrapbook convention for $$$$!!! Thanks for posting this beautiful creation and thanks to Laura for redoing it.

Laura, you ROCK! Waaaaaaaay, girl!!!! TFS!

I am dying to try this. Thanks for posting...

This is awesome!!! Looks much harder than it is! I LOVED making them! Made 6 during the holidays and have several other ideas to make more.
Very impresssive presentation.

I would love the instructions for the 12x12 size....thanks.

Wow...........thank you so much Laurakj for your detailed instructions. I saw this at a Sell A Bration Open House this past weekend. I was so taken by it. Now, to actually find the directions. Thank you so much !!!

I have been watching the baby panda at the Washington DC Zoo. They have a Live Cam going on their their website. Just in case anyone is interested:

I have a free software program called ScreenHunter...you can take picture of your screen etc....so my sister and I have been taking pictures of Tai Shan. I would like to put some of these photos in this box album, maybe with red and black colors.

And sure, I would be interesting in the 12 x 12 size directions.

Thank you again for sharing the directions.

Your quote is so funny I laughed out loud

Sorry
 

I am so sorry, I was trying to write a note to someone about their quote at the bottom of their message. It was about their pantyhose being queen size. Well the message got posted with your comments AAAAAAHHHHHH. Your instructions and scripture quote is not funny the pantyhose thing is. I'm new to this! I must get back on the "yellow brick road" -Nicole

LOVE this!! I made one over the weekend for my MIL, but somehow got the diminsions on the biggest part (outside of box) wrong. I just figured out the measurements and made my lid bigger so that it fit. I am going to try the one on the link all 12x12 CS this week also.

I just tried to print this out from Laurakg doc., and it didnt print the 3rd box pic, or the lid pic, or steps 6-9. Do I just have a screwy printer?? lol
Thanks!

Thanks again

Wow! Thanks so much for this. I love the idea and the instructions are perfect. What a beautiful gift for Grandma.......

thank you thank you! I hope to try this soon!

Thanks. For troubled eyes like mine, I opened the template, and then copied and pasted it into a WORD doc where I could enlarge it.

Will definitely have to try and make this. I was just in our local scrapbook store and they're advertising this. I'm glad I didn't sign up for this class, a little voice told me to come home and check SCS. Woohoo for listening and saving $$$$ too :p You ladies are awesome and I'm glad to be a part of your world :-D

What a great idea! These would make great gifts!

Another one for my project binder!! Just printed the word doc file and it came out perfect!! What a cute, cute idea!! TFS
Hugs, Joanne

Thanks to all for sharing the templates and photos of their creations, I am inspired:D

Laura, thank you so much for doing this. I can't wait to get started on one for my six year old grandaughter. She saw a scrapbook page while watching with me, that showed baby pictures and up, and told me that is what we need to do. So I think I will do that for her like this. Mary Lee

Hi - thanks for sharing this technique, I've seen it made but didn't know how. I hunted the instructions and found them but still put it off. I had all the time in the world last week to try it but thougt it was too complicated. Your directions put everything into perspective and now I'm ready to try it. Figures though, I'm working everyday this week (actually 10 days in a row - ughh) and I have a workshop scheduled for Wednesday night. So, I'm going to order some designer paper and play when I actually do get some time off.
Do you all think this would be good for a stamp camp??

Thanks for the iput and sharing!!

I did it..
 

Yay, I did one and just love it:D Thanks so much for all the info ladies! If you haven't tried this you simply must, it really is quite simple and lots of fun!

Here's a couple of my pages, the rest are in my gallery:

Enjoy;)

THANKS SO MUCH
 

I am new to this and I have been searching throught the site and came across your Album In A Box. I LOVE it. I will be making these as Christmas presents to give. Again THANKS.

Thanks for sharing - I'm new to this forum thing and am a SU demonstrator - always looking for new projects!!!! I love this site :)

just bumping

Thanks for sharing these directions! I've got a Stamp-A-Thon coming up on 11/19 and really wanted to do these as our "photo/scrapbook" item but was waffling b/c I could not find really clear directions. As always, you can find ANYTHING on SCS! God, I love this site!!!

I think I am going to this rather than an Altoid tin...those tins were making me nervous and getting pricy anyway!

thank you so much

shoppingqueen23A:) :) :) :)

ShoppingQueen, they are really so easy and the template and directions are awesome! You'll definitely be able to get one done rather easily and quickly for your grandmother. Good luck!!

I would also love a copy of the 12 x 12 instructions.
thanks,
lmp113

Thank you!!!
 

Thank you for the directions. I have made two boxes this past week. One 12 x 12 size and one reducing the measurements to 8 1/2 x 11 size.

My boss is getting married in October and fell in love with the box and wanted 150 of them. So I reduced the size, keeping the same proportions and it worked great. I also convinced them that one for each table would be better, that way only 20 boxes.

I made the small box for an example. It has all my sons T-ball pictures in them. I took it to work first to show by boss, now my son won't let it out of his sight. He loves it and thinks it cool that he is in a box.

The only trouble that I had, was not all four sides being exactly the same size, they were off by fractions of an inch. I originally scored them with a stylus and a ruler, next time I will use the scoring blade on my paper cutter to see if this makes exact score lines.

This is a beautiful project when complete. I plan on using it at my up coming workshops. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.
