Hi! I'm sharing the Fall Flip Book that I put together for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L today. It doesn't officially feel like fall for me until I spend a day outside collecting apples and pumpkins. I recently visited a fruit farm to get my fall fix. A late frost last May took out the majority of all fruit trees in our area, so I didn't get to pick apples myself. I did however get to pick my own pumpkin off the vine, stock-up on prepicked apples and preserves at the farm store, pet a donkey and several goats, and enjoy fresh cider and the best apple fritter I've had in a long time. The day was definitely a win! I decided to document this day in a mini flip book.
I repurposed a Heidi Swapp flip book, converting the album from summer to fall, by changing out some of the patterned paper pages and by embellishing the front cover with some fall imagery using the Stampendous Truck Loading Die Cutting Set.
The flip book measures approximately 7.25 x 4.25 inches, and contains four 4 x 6 inch photo inserts and four printed pages that are perfect for journaling and memorabilia. To alter this flip book for my day trip, I first I applied plaid patterned paper to the inside covers and the front cover binding. Next, I cut fall patterned papers to size and alternated those pages with the 4 x 6 photo sleeves. Finally, I punched holes in each page and strung a piece of string through the holes to hold the album together.I added fall imagery and quotes to many of the book pages to reinforce the themes of my photos.
I saved the apple bag from my trip and used pieces of it in my flip book.
I used the Stampendous Truck Load Cutting Die Set and patterned paper to create the fall scene for the flip book cover.
