A Camera Box with a Mini Album

Made this 3D Camera Box using the SVG cut filed from SVGcuts.com. The kit collection is called Instant Memories found here. I made the Camera Box shown from the project. I love the SVGcuts company because they always have a fool proof video tutorial to help assemble the project. The finished camera box is 7" x 2-1/8" (excluding lens) x  4-1/2" . Simple Stories Daily Grind/Busy Busy was used for the body of the camera.  The lens section used Simple Stories Say Cheese/Admit One (both sides of the paper was used for this project). I think this camera is sooooo cool. 
 Here's the back:
A side view.....and don't you just love those knobs. I tell you, SVGcuts: Designer Mary and Leo always pay attention to all the details in any of their projects.  This camera looks so realistic.
Remove the lid to reveal a mini book: finished size is 4" x 6". 
Use some scrap black mat board for the front and back covers. Decorate as desired. Add cut 4" x 6" pages from the Simple Stories paper collection for the inside of the mini book.  Once pages are arranged, use your Bind - it - all or a Cinch to secure the pages.  I added 3 colors of 5/8" wide satin ribbon to embellish the 1" O-wires .Cut then 4-1/2" long and tie in a single knot through the O-wires. There's enough room in the box for some souvenirs, too. Here are just a couple inside pages of the mini book.....you get the idea............eh?
Thanks for stopping by today..............................
