Men in my Life

This is a Mini Album of the men in my life.
I started with a clock Mini Album by Bo Bunny I picked up last September at Ally Pally.
Inside are photo's of both my grandfathers , Dad and my partner Dave.
I used lots of flowers mostly by Prima ( I just love Prima flowers), leaves from a local craft shop , pearl swirls also by Prima and lots of embellishments, brass keys , keys , cloaks , birdcages and locks picked up on my journeys. I also used some wooden embellishments to set off the different pages.

    What a lovely idea. It is a great way to display photos in - far more interesting and less likely to get lost than the normal way!

    Very very late thios week with getting around to commment but just had to leave a message about your mini album. This is such a great idea and good for making a theme on a specfic group of photos. I need to make a couple of books for my Mum who is now in a care home so this has given me some food for thought Hugs Mrs a.
