Decoupage Album
Decoupage a blank album for a personalized touch to give as a gift or keep for yourself. To ensure the longevity of her cover design, Patricia Anderson chose sturdy materials like chipboard accents. The album was mostly naked when she started, with just the aqua fabric spine adorning the otherwise exposed chipboard. She painted it white to quickly make a canvas for the more decorative elements of her design.
When covering your album with paper, first adhere the paper with decoupage medium. Then, when it’s dry, apply another coat to seal it.
