Have you ever wondered what my Own Foto Albums look like?

I’m often asked at workshops, shows and get emails all the time about what my albums look like when I am finished them.

Well, as it happens, my Mum and Dad celebrated their Diamond wedding this year so it struck me that it might be a good idea to show you what I did with all the images that I took on the day!

As with almost any occasion like this, making the albums was easy and took little time, it was choosing the right images that took a little longer as there were so many images to choose from plus I wanted to make sure I had the best ones as I was giving the completed album to my Mum and Dad as a momento.

The actual tutorials I made these 3 albums with were:

Waterfall Pocket Foto Folio (#2)
Foto Folio #4
Foto Folio #5

I also wanted to store them so I bought a 10″ x 10″ cake box and decorated it to just finish it off.

As always, share you comments below or feel free to keep up with me on Facebook and Twitter.
