Altered Cookbook Favorite Photos 2008 Finished!

I have been looking at the 365 album and think that it is an awesome idea but I doubt that I would ever make it through 365 days. Kudos to those that are going to do this.
I finished my 2008 favorite photos using only 2 pictures per month and that was enough challenge for me. I loved doing it and it is fun to look back at just a few pictures of each month. 2009 will be just as fun. I did learn that I need a much bigger album or not put anything chunky on the pages. I opt for an album with larger rings!

Altered Cookbook

I reorganized how I keep my receipes and this was a very old receipe book,complete with divider tabs. I covered the book with BG Recess paper, 7 Gyp. gaffer tape, rubons, QK scallop dies and lots of ink. I tried using HS copper clock rub-on but of course they didn't rubon, but I left what little went on on. I used the tab dividers as a pattern to cut out of chipboard, and there were 12 so perfect for this album. I plan to take a few of our favorite pictures each month and put them on the dividers. I am only using embellies that I have, going through the stash.At the end of the year I will have an album of our favorite pictures of 2008. Regarding the HS copper clocks rub-ons, they are horrible, what a waste of money! I emailed the company but got the response I expected...nothing.On a happy note, my friend gave me the new BG rubon tool...love that new tool.
