Hace tiempo que no logro crear algo que sea mi estilo, pues muchas veces tengo que alterar mi trabajo para agradar y acoplarme al estilo de mis clientes, pero ayer logr\u00e9 sentarme a crear un diario. Decid\u00ed tomarle fotos mientras lo creaba por si alguien se inspiraba y deseaba crear algo similar. Aqu\u00ed est\u00e1 el producto final:<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>The quote on the cover says: Like the Butterfly I Will Awaken in HIS Time. I fell in love with the Botanica paper from Graphic 45 and had no other option than to give in to the temptation of creating a journal that I can add pages to. So the final outcome of the entire album is this:
La cita en la parte de alfrente de el diario dice: Como una mariposa, en Su tiempo despertar\u00e9. Me enamor\u00e9 de la l\u00ednea de papel Botanica de Graphic 45 asi que no tuve otra opci\u00f3n que el darme por vencida cuando la tentaci\u00f3n de crear este diario, al cual le puedo a\u00f1dir p\u00e1ginas, surgi\u00f3. El resultado completo de este \u00e1lbum es el siguiente: <\/span><\/p>\n<\/a>These pages have some of my favorite elements in them: butterflies, starfish, seashells… My favorite detail in this page is this one:<\/p>\n<\/a>I love the texture and the dimension that the starfish adds here… \ud83d\ude42
Me encanta la texture y la dimensi\u00f3n que surge en esta p\u00e9gina gracias a esta estrella de mar… \ud83d\ude42 <\/span><\/p>\n<\/a>Out of these pages it is a no brainer that the butterfly is my FAVORITE!! I truly believe that I experienced a metamorphosis when I met Christ as my Savior, so I tend to really identify myself with them.
Mientras miras esta p\u00e1ginas se que te haz dado cuenta que me FASCINAN las mariposas!!! Estoy convencida de que yo, al igual que una mariposa, pude experimentar una metamorfosis cuando conoc\u00ed a Jesucristo como mi Salvador. Por esto es f\u00e1cil el identificarme con ellas. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/a>I tried to make it seem as if it was ready to take off… (That is how I usually feel LOL)
Aqu\u00ed elev\u00e9 las alas de la mariposa para hacerla lucir como si se quisiera ir volando de la p\u00e1gina… (Muchas veces me siento as\u00ed yo misma LOL) <\/span><\/p>\n<\/a>Once again, the starfish takes my heart away… \ud83d\ude42
Una vez m\u00e1s, la estrella de mar me roba el coraz\u00f3n… \ud83d\ude42 <\/span><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
Para crear el \u00e1lbum cort\u00e9 la forma de mariposa de un papel usando el Cricut. Luego dibuj\u00e9 la mariposa en un pedazo de cart\u00f3n para poder cortarla con tijeras.<\/span>
<\/span><\/a>Once I cut out the Butterfly, I drew with a pencil where I wanted the division of colors:
Despu\u00e9s de cortar la mariposa, con un l\u00e1piz dibuje las divisiones que quer\u00eda distinguir con colores diferentes: <\/span><\/a>I did not want the butterfly to look traditional so I decided that instead of using entire sheets of paper to cover the chipboard, I should tear paper into tiny pieces and cover it that way.
Yo no quer\u00eda que la mariposa luciera tradicional as\u00ed que decid\u00ed cortar pedazitos de papel para pegarlos alrededor de las diferente areas delineadas, en vez de usar la hoja completa e intacta.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>I began close to the edges and then proceeded to fill in each area according to the color and the pattern I chose for that area.
Comenz\u00e9 por las orillas, cosa de poder definir las \u00e1reas claramente con colores diferentes. Luego rellen\u00e9 el resto de el \u00e1rea con el color adecuado.<\/span><\/a>Notice that I left an area without covering… To cover that I used the Graphic 45 number\/letter sheet that is double sided. I really liked the polka-dot pattern that was on the back of the sheet, so it turned out to be perfect to cover this area.
Quiero que notes que dej\u00e9 una porci\u00f3n que no estaba cubierta. Si conoces la l\u00ednea de Graphic 45, viene una hoja de letras y n\u00fameros. La parte de atr\u00e1s de esa hoja tiene “polka dots”, as\u00ed que tom\u00e9 esos c\u00edrculos y los us\u00e9para cubrir esa parte.<\/span><\/a>Once I did that, I inked the butterfly with different Distress Inks and I drew the “veins” with a black pen following the design the Graphic 45 paper butterflies had.
Cu\u00e1ndo el \u00e1lbum estaba ya cubierto completamente, le a\u00f1ad\u00ed color usando la tinta Distress, y le dibuj\u00e9 las “venas” con un marcador negro tratando de copiar el patr\u00f3n de las alas de mariposas que estaban en el papel de Graphic 45. <\/span><\/a>These steps you follow twice: to create the front and back cover of the album. (This is what the finished back cover looks like. Since it is meant to be a journal, I did not want the back of the album to be too bulky.) This is the finished cover and a close up of the starfish:
Los pasos antes mencionado tienes que repetirlos para completar la parte de atr\u00e1s de el \u00e1lbum. (Esta foto ense\u00f1a c\u00f3mo luce el \u00e1lbum por detr\u00e1s. Como es un diario no quise que fuera a quedar un poco levantado para poder escribir en el.) En la foto de abajo se ve la portada ya completada y una foto cercana de la estrella de mar: <\/span><\/a><\/a>
To cover each page, I used the cricut to cut the shape of the butterfly and Glossy accents to adhere it.
Para cubrir cada p\u00e1gina cort\u00e9 el papel utilizando el Cricut y utiliz\u00e9 Glossy Accents para pegarlo. <\/span><\/a>Because it is a journal, and I am completely inept when it comes to writing neatly, I decided to take some pages from my other journal and tear them in order to add them to the chipboard.
C\u00f3mo se supone que sea un diario, y yo no soy muy buena escribiendo en una l\u00ednea recta decid\u00ed arrancar varias hojas de otro diario para luego peg\u00e1rselas a las p\u00e1ginas: <\/span><\/a>I then proceeded to add the journaling page along with other embellishments and gave each page a distressed look using Distress Inks.
Luego le a\u00f1ad\u00ed las p\u00e1ginas con l\u00edneas y las otras decoraciones. Le d\u00ed un toque distressed al romper las hojas y al a\u00f1adirle tinta Distress.<\/span><\/a>I hope you lied my little album and the picture tutorial. Please leave me your comments telling me what you think… (they mean the world to me \ud83d\ude42
Espero que les haya gustado el tutorial de mi peque\u00f1o \u00e1lbum\/diario. Porfavor d\u00e9jenme sus comentarios con sus pensamientos y opiniones… valen el mundo para m\u00ed.<\/span><\/p>\n
Besitos en Cristo, <\/span><\/p>\n
PS: Yo cre\u00e9 este \u00e1lbum como hace 5-6 atr\u00e1s, pero quise compartirlo con ustedes tal y como lo hice en mi blog<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
