Newbie Question

[Becca Bonneville]

Ok I bought Dani's Bunny Trail kit and got the free bracket album. I LOVE this album and would love to use it but I honestly have never made anything with a chipboard bracket album before. How do you do it and what do you need? Do you just adhere your pages to it? I know total newbs here! I appreciate the help! Thanks!

I just went over to your Blog....It is great. Thanks for the tut's on the albums, your turned out really great. I got your Sweet & Sour kit last week so I am so getting the chipboard Key Plate and doing a book for my niece. She is just learning everyones names (17 months old) so I am putting everyones pics in it for her. What do you suggest for covering the book so it does not get wrecked by those little hands? Mod Podge or should I use clear contact paper?

Wow Susan! Great directions! Your albums turned out amazing! I can't wait to get started! I want to do the keyplate album with your Sweet & Sour kit too! I think I found another addiction! LOL!

Christine I'm just guessing, cuz I've never used clear contact paper for an album, but I would think modpodge would work better. Or a spray sealant. Contact paper can come apart at the seams and stuff, whereas a spray or modpodge wouldn't. 2 or 3 coats of the stuff should be plenty to keep it safe.

That is what I thought too, I was just not sure because she is so little and will may try to eat it or something !!!!!

Hmmmmm....that's true too, lol. Maybe just check the labels on the different kinds of sealant and see?
