Thanks. :))) It's actually not as fiddly as it looks... The book is still big enough that you can fold and glue without having to be *too* nimble fingered. The trickiest thing is finding the right paper and glue - I ruined two of them before this copy because the glue was too wet and the paper didn't take the printer ink well.
Now that I have the template worked out and know the right materials, it only takes minutes to make others - I'll have a whole library before long. :-)
That's absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! What a hell of work! I just saw recently a shop, where you can buy mini books and I loved it. You've done a brilliant job and makes me want to have a Pros one *g* I might give it a try, so thank you for the template and the idea. Although I know I end up with a total mess, lol. Will you share the other books with us once you done them ?
:::HUGS::: Thank you so much. :))) I have to say, my mind is already ticking away at a couple of Pros/Shaw ones... Now that I've got the template figured out, it only takes a few minutes to make one and I have other ideas. ;-) I'll share (if it doesn't bore people.)
There are some *AMAZING* mini book makers out there - I have a dozen volumes on my wish-list that are *incredible*. My book above is in no way comparable... I may try and go smaller and use better materials at some point but I doubt I'll get to the level of quality and realism I've seen on the web.
Aw, thanks. :))) I know my instructions are a bit intimidating but those vids I point to show how easy it all is... I hope you won't be scared off from trying one of your own!
Thanks. :))) Please *do* give it a try - I know my instructions are intimidating but it's really quite easy. All you have to lose is a couple of pieces of paper and a little time. ;-)
It's surely a lot cheaper than making a real scrapbook
That was the original appeal of the project... And I wasn't finding photo albums for the action figures in the correct size anyway, even if I *wanted* to pay money.
edit: OMG wedding book. A lil' one that they could hang on their christmas tree.
:))) Funny you should mention that... That light blue page with the picture of the building and the rose...? Kind of inspired by a wedding theme: The pics are of GDL attending Barrowman's wedding, the building is a swanky hotel that caters to gay weddings (which I think is awesome,) and when I put the page together, I was thinking along the lines of a memory page of fancy date/romantic weekend thing.

I just need an idea for the scrapbooking thing. It's surely a lot cheaper than making a real scrapbook, which is all to the good.
