Here's another album I made. I took some of the petals mini album but changed it up and made it my own. Different inside cover, flaps different sizes, left out the envelope pages. Took the base of the large envelope page and used 3 for base pages. I'm in love with this paper pack. Little Builder by Echo Park.

Thanks to our sweet friend Beth , we are having a super fun Album Challenge with a Giveaway!
✂️ Check out all the details of the Challenge here!

For my first project in over 15 years, I tackled the quick mini album with some paper I bought a long time ago. I had some issues with the spine. I tried to hide the ridge with some ribbon. 😬 Yikes. I'm giving it to my best friend how owns a farm. She will never notice it.

This is the book I just finished for my grandson’s 6th birthday. It was so fun to make! I used the Slender Mini Album to start with. I doubled the spine width and doubled the pages. I also used only the smaller sized photos and didn’t use any of the 8x10 spots, I then added an expanding pocket to the back inside cover. I couldn’t find a monster truck paper collection, so me and my old friend, Etsy, made a run for it, lol. My grandson apparently has a strong feeling about mint chocolate chip ice cream, as shown in photo #6 😂. Such a goofball, lol.

( tap to enlarge photos ) Hello, I decided to join this challenge because I was in a funk. I figured joining would hold me accountable because I need to submit something. Well...it worked. I learned a few things in this process. 1. I love creating the book most and decorating takes me ten times longer than the actual creation. 2. It's OK to mess up. (hence the last page that no one else has because I managed to make my spine too large). 3. I absolutely love Frances and the structure she brings in my chaotic head!

This is now my new favorite design. I taught 3 feaures Shayne used in his latest album + a little bonus ;) I cannot wait to see what you make with this one. You can start watching the class here. Love you all! 🤍🌱

Hi Friends!!!
Ame el Petal Álbum! Quiero hacer muchos así!
Un poco desfasado pero es mi versión en navidad!!!!

( translation : I love the Petal Album! I want to do many like this! A little outdated but it’s my version at Christmas!!!! )

For the challenge, I worked on this bee-utiful book. I went with a green base instead of brown or black. I absolutely LOVE the color!!! There are hexagon cut outs throughout to represent the bee hive. The little hexagon mirrors made my day! I even did a few cut outs on the back cover. Lots and lots of cutting.

I may have over decorated the book, but I couldn't help myself.

Heading to a sweet farm themed baby shower. I created this sweet mini album (delightful mini album) for the grandma to match the big ol' baby book for the mom-to-be. I didn't need the large version because I wanted to use all of my scraps from the beast (I followed the 8x8 baby album. It is the beast.), so I scaled it to 8x8 too.

I may post pics of the beast later.

Once again, thank you Francės Long for all of the inspiration!
