Locker Album Die Projects from CHA 2012

Hi Everyone!
Here's my three projects I created for the Winter CHA 2012 AccuCut Craft's booth. The Locker Album Die is my very die I designed for AccuCut, therefore this was very exciting and fun for me to create. Below are the three projects I created.




The first thing that comes to mind when thinking of a locker at school, are books. This is what inspired me to bind this album as a book. As you can see the Locker book doesn't close all the way because its intended to be a display. I gathered pictures of Ariana and her friends in High School and embellished the Locker book using Pink Paislee's Daily Junque collection along with the coordinating die cuts. I had fun layering each pages with the design paper, dies cuts and embellishments. I also incorporated the die cuts from the die. My favorite piece would have to be the Polaroid film. You can use just plain white card stock or add design paper to make each film unique. This is definitely a wonderful keepsake for Ariana to look back at and enjoy.




When designing this die, not only did I design this as a School theme album but also a Sports theme too. Here I create a Locker album of my nephew Jacob that's been playing Flag Football these past several years. The paper collection I used is DCWV High School stack and Page Kit. I love page kits. Its always fun to have coordinating stickers and die cuts to go with the design papers. I really loved the pictures my sister had taken of Jacob. Its always nice to create with action shot photos.





My niece Alyssa's in cheerleading and I wanted to create a 3D Locker. This is was my very first 3D Locker I created. I add pictures on outside, but also wanted to add a mini cheerleading outfit inside the locker. I placed AccuCut's Clear Plastic Sheet on top so you can see the outfit inside. I placed a 3M plastic hook to for the outfit. I purchased an adorable cheerleading outfit from Build A Bear which turned out to be a perfect size. Not only will Alyssa have a keepsake of her in Cheerleading, but also a cute lil outfit to look at.
