For Mom, redux

 For Mom's birthday some years back I gave her a folding photo album of some favorite pics.  I had printed the pics on my inkjet, using photo paper, so that I would have small sized images to work with.  After a couple of years these pics had faded badly.  Emergency measures were required.  My first obstacle was finding how to get 3x5" prints made, because the standard 4x6" were too big.  winkflash.com did a nice job there.  So then the prints sat on my desk for a couple weeks months because I didn't know how to approach making a new album yet preserve the look of the original.  Today I decided to plunge in. I was very pleased that I was able to peel off the old pics and embellishments leaving the chipboard background intact.  I used a plastic scrapper tool that was one of the very first scrapbook supplies I bought and haven't used!  Above is side 1 almost exactly like the original. 

That left the backside of the album a blank canvas.  So I filled it up with additional pics I thought would fit the family theme.  Mom has not mentioned this missing album but I know she'll be happy to get it back.
