Today, I'm sharing a new journal/mini album that I've made with the Parisian Daydream collection of digital papers by Tsunami Rose. For this album, all the interior pages were folded and used as a single sheet. I sealed the bottom with glue and inserted a folded tab of black card stock into the open length before sealing that side. It was these lengths of black card stock that were punched and hold the pages into the spiral wire connector.

I couldn't resist a big, blowzy, silk bow at the top of the spiral binding...

The inside front cover holds a tag and a sleeve, taken from a sheet in this collection. I added a black grommet to the tag and a length of hand dyed bias tape. The sleeve is embellished with a chiffon rose and some die cut leaves. The top of the cover has a line of shabby pink petal trim and some black crocheted trim. The page on the right was so pretty just as it is, but I added an embellishment for variety. It is one of the printed cards, held with some punched photo corners...

The next set of pretty pages shows the large black photo/journaling tags that are inside each 'folded' page. A length of silk ribbon was strung through a punched hole and the ribbon was then tied in place with another length of black thread tied into a tiny bow. The page on the left has a length of die cut trim that was adhered along the bottom edge. The tag is just tucked in and there's room to add a photo perhaps. On the right, I've added an elaborately beaded and sequined butterfly...so french!...

These pages were a snap! On the left, I used a very pretty tag as a pocket for some printed tickets. The right is ready for some handwritten notes so I added a paperclip with a dangling heart to catch any other ephemera that's found along the way...

Some more pretty pages with minimal embellishments...On the left I added a chipboard resist rose that I sprayed with some Tattered Angels sprays and on the right I stamped a length of lace, only adhering the outside edge, allowing me to tuck more tags into the edge...
~~**~~**~~**~~
The left page was already wonderfully 'embellished' with the digital elements of a doily, photo and silhouette! I added a butterfly paperclip and a printed postcard. The right page has an addition of some swirling jet half beads and leaf shapes...

There is a three layered, crocheted flower in a coral color added on the left (Thank you Terrie!) and a fussy cut embellishment from a printed sheet in this collection added to the lower right...
~~**~~**~~**~~
These two are the last pages...the one on the right is the inside back cover. On the left, I used a snippet of seam binding to create a band that hold a tag (embellished with a red glass heart charm) and some tickets from the collection. The 'Tour de Eiffel' cancellation seal is also a part of this collection. On the right is another sleeve, containing a coordinating tag and a ticket.
