Start by painting outside of box (5CI-16353) a light turquoise blue with acrylic paint. Once that color has dried use a white acrylic paint (5MA-23751) and distress over the blue using the paint comb from the Making Memories distressing kit (5MA-2355). Paint the entire accordian book roughly with brown acrylic paint (5MA-23751). Cut papers from Nesting Grounds Collection No. 2 (5CC-NGC01) to size, distress edges of paper with a dark brown ink (5TH-TIM19534) and adhere to book as shown in picture. Using regular notepad paper tear out approximately 16 sheets roughly and submerge in coffee then allow to dry. For best results hang with a peg on a hanger. Once dried distress papers with dark brown ink (5TH-TIM19534) and staple about 4 sheets together then attach groups of 4 on each page by gluing the bottom sheet on the album. Embellish grubby tags (5GG-GRUBTAG-LG) using leftover scraps from the Nesting Grounds Collection No. 2 (5CC-NGC01), Wild Saffron Die Cut Tags (5KC-567719) and Edwardian Appliqué Frames (5HH-CX708). Attach the finished Grubby Tags to note pages. For a finishing touch add brown paper ribbon strips ( 5KC-542235) on pages as desired. On the front page of the accordian album add a white keyhole (5HH-CXGLOUW). To decorate the outside box use the tree paper from the Nesting Grounds Collection, cut out the tree then adhere to box. Add a Grubby Tag (5GG-GRUBTAG-LG) at the bottom of the cover and adhere a brown swirl rub-on from the Wild Saffron Rub-Ons pack (5KC-592346). Cut out the alphabet/lace from leftover scraps in Nesting Grounds Collection and glue to the spine. Attach white corner (5HH-CX706) to top left corner and blue metal flower (5IM-MCHM03) to spine. Add tags & chipboard to create title.
