A Photograph Stirs the Soul
One of the many photo albums I have been binding lately.
I covered the boards with some of my marbled paper.
I like the big black spots....some of which have quite a few
tiny white speckles.....oops, air pockets.
I made a decorative plate for the front cover.
You can see another photo album here.

Beautiful work, Cynthia! Really outstanding.
An awesome album! Love the marble effect on the cover.
wonderful pattern. it stirs the soul for sure ..it will look like something different to everyone. some things that were brought to my mind were a giraffe, the moon, the sun,drops of oil, snake skin, I could go on and on...very cool

Wow! Great covers!
Ooh, gorgeous work! I love the look of bound books. I looked at your other album. They are wonderful! Marbled papers are perfect for the covers! :)
This is a wonderful photo album!
Soo classy, love the colours and splodges :0) Gay xxx
can we schedule a marbling session? when I see your books my muse is itching me to start pulling some sheets :) Wonderful books Cynnie. You are a creative soul.
Loving your bound album and loving the marbled paper. Happy PPF, Annette x
Lovely photo album, I can't believe it was made by hand!
Thanks for stopping by my blog, good luck with winning the party straws!
oooh, your photo book makes me drool! your marbled paper is fabulous......i really love all of those white speckles (air bubbles can be a good thing!!)! xox
Really nice, your marbled paper! Lovely book!
oooh, wow! this is so cool. I love the marbled paper! how did you make that? I like the quote you ued, as well!
Cynnie, I love, love, love marbled paper! Since you talked about air bubbles, I'm guessing you made the marbled paper yourself! You talented girl, you! I've got quite a few sheets of marbled paper I've purchased from Paper Mojo {an online source}. I linked to your earlier post on the other book you bound as well. Gorgeous books. I'm just now taking a book binding class and can tell that this something I will enjoy doing a lot. Thanks for an inspiring post! Xo, Sue
These are wonderful albums. The marbled paper is fantastic. It would be fun to learn how to make the papers.
Is that orange and black....as my tag is?? ;-) Great handmade album, Cynnie!
I'm with Lori I love the cover! The colors make me drool too! Well done... thanks for sharing and happy ppf!

Awesome work, love the grungy look of this!
Wonderful albums. I particularly like this black splodgy one. Clever you. Some other fine makes on your blog I have enjoyed viewing.
Beautiful book cover! HAPPY PPF!
Looks fantastic! :)
Love your album! Takes me back in time!! What's on the inside? Do you scrap and bind your layouts then in an album like this??
Oh, that is really nice and fun.
Oh this is SO beautiful- thanks for sharing! I'm off to explore your site.
Happy PPF (a day late ;))

This is fabulous! What a great way to keep your photos. I've never thought of making a handmade photo album before, but it's a great idea.

I think the white spots on the black is a nice effect. Looks like very beautifully made books. Happy Weekend Cynthia.
