Vintage Suitcase Mini Album with Secret Windows & Waterfall Pages – Tutorial by Gina Long
Â
Â

Â
The Curiouser & Curiouser paper collection is perfect for creating a whimsical Alice in Wonderland-inspired suitcase mini album and using the Square Tag and Pocket Wrap Around Album as the base adds a lot of structure and interactive elements to the project.
Â

Â

Â
For the top, I added a handle to give it that vintage suitcase feel and attached a charm chain using some chipboard elements, charms, keys, and gems. Looking closely at the chipboard frame on the cover, you will see some glitter washi tape.

Â
I added four pull-out Window-style pages to add an element of surprise and intrigue, just like discovering new things in Alice’s Wonderland. My window pages feature the chipboard frames, and Rub-on transfers i used on top of transparency. That way, your photos will peak through.

Â

Â

Â
I have four Square Tag pages, and I decorated the pages left with pattern paper and ephemera.Â

On the last page, I created a whimsical, layered waterfall. I finished the inside back cover with a see-through pocket and a few journaling tags.Â
