Go Texas Mini Album

I admire bull riders for their passion and the uniqueness each one of them has.

I recently took part in a Lickety Slip page swap  " Go Texas Mini Album" at Scrapp'n Savvy.  Thought I would share my layout and instructions.

Supplies:

Moxie Paper Line - Western Round Up and embellishments

Bazzill Card Stock - Mud Pie, Kraft, Curry Spice, Cajun

Star Plastic

Favorite Ink - I used Distress Ink Vintage Ink

Score tape

Favorite adhesive for small items

Tape Runner

Cut two 4 x 6 from Wagon Train (note wood grain is horizontal)

Cut one 3 3/4” x 3 3/4” square from Kraft

Cut one 1” x 3 3/8” from burlap print

Cut three 1/2” x 3 3/8” from Mud Pie, Score in 1/2

Cut three 3 3/8” x 3 3/8” square from Mud Pie

Cut one 3 3/8” x 3 3/8” square from Star plastic

Rodeo, Rodeo shadow and Bull Rider - used Silhouette Cameo

Cowboy Hat and Boots are from Embellishments

Cowboy Hat and Boots have been fussy cut

Rodeo was cut out of Curry Spice using Cameo

Rodeo Shadow was cut out of Mud Pie using Cameo

Attach Rodeo to Shadow using your favorite adhesive. Then attach

to center of 4 x 6 Wagon Train

Attach Cowboy hat tilted on O.  Attach boots in the left lower corner.

I have slightly tilted them.

 Attach the 3 3/4” x 3 3/4” Kraft square on the right side leaving

about 1/8” of inch border on right side and top and bottom. 

Attach Bull Rider to the lower left hand corner of the 4 x 6 Wagon Train

using your favorite adhesive. Bull horn may overlap the photo mat.

 Mini Album: you will need the three 3 3/8” x 3 3/8”  Mud Pie square and three 1/2” x 3 3/8” Mud Pie.  Using score tape adhered to the back side of the 1/2” x 3 3/8”.  Taking one of the 3 3/8” x 3 3/8” square then adhere 1/2 of the 1/2” x 3 3/8” to the top of the square. Fold the rest of the 1 /2” (non sticking side down) take the second 3  3/8” square and place on top of folded 1/2” . The second piece of 1/2” x 3 3/8” adhere to top of 3 3/8” square you just adhered. Fold the rest of the 1/2” (non sticking side down) take the third 3 3/8” square and place on top of folded 1/2”.  The third piece of 1/2” x 3 3/8” adhere to top of the 3 3/38” square you just adhered.  Fold the rest of the 1/2” (non sticking side down). Now you will adhere the Star plastic to the 1/2” x 3 3/8” piece.  The burlap paper will be adhered to the top and folded over to the back.  This should give it the book binding effect.

 Place Bull Rider layout in page protector.  Then adhere mini book to the outside.  Center the mini book to be in the center of the Kraft square.
