Wedding Albums

Designer Nichol Magouirk used patterned papers in complementary hues to make this easy-to-assemble wedding album as beautiful as it is simple. She began by matting the photos with natural and medium green card stock. She affixed antique brass minibrads in each of the four corners and set the assembled pieces to the side.

She then cut 5 1/2-inch squares from each of the patterned papers and adhered them to a sheet of dark green card stock, leaving a thin border around each edge. She mounted the matted photos on each page and used alphabet rubber stamps and brown ink to stamp the title for each page.

For a simple embellishment, she punched small flowers from crumpled light green card stock and inserted an antique brass minibrad through the center. She attached the flowers to vellum metal-rim tags, threaded a ribbon through the hole punched in the top of the tag, and adhered the pieces to the pages.
