How cool and a use for those straws I keep seeing in the store!

[JillinIN]

Yes!! I even have the Glassine envelopes!! I'm so happy to have something to do with them now!! I just ordered last night. I knew I would see something today that I would want. I don't have those straws!! I saw them in the store and wondered what they were for. Now I know.

I have seen them a bunch too and thought what are those for???

[Kristin]

On the cover, I heat embossed a background pattern. This adds lots of texture and color to a glassine bag. Just think about how much color you can add with all those colorful embossing powders out there on the market now!

Well isn't that just the most clever, and simple, and absolutely customizable ever! Love this, Thank You

From this perspective, you can see the pocket pages. I made four pages. Since the glassine bags are transparent, I decided to insert patterned paper pages backed onto solid cardstock. Later, I can add photos and memorabilia from our trip!

Here, you get a better image of the album. You can see how it stands up along with the straw binding...AMAZING! With all the paper straw colors and patterns out on the market, you can create so many different looks!
