We were invited to a 25th anniversary party this weekend. I wanted to make a special gift. I decided to make a photo album that the blissful couple could store treasured photos from the party.
The photo album was an inexpensive photo album from the dollar store. Here's what is looked liked before the transformation.
I purchased the scrap book paper from Hobby Lobby
and the ribbon was purchased at Christmas time at Costco.

This jewel was from a pair of earrings that were a garage sale find.
I just love when I come across old jewelry.
A Big pretty satin bow tied the album shut.....

The ribbon Bow was attached with another beautiful button...
A finishing touch was a matching gift bag....
