Hi everyone, my name is Tonya and I have been making mini albums for about 20 yrs on and off. I love to look at pictures and the thought of just holding them individually is not appealing to me. I am nosey so I need to know who they are and what they were doing in the picture. That really hit me after my parents passed and going thru their albums, I wasn't sure who most of the people where. With the new phones and snapping pictures everyone has them and never prints them out and there is not much said about them. This is why I do it. I give most away that I make and recently with Frances' guidance have been keeping more and more of them for myself.












I created this album using Frances tutorial Delightful Mini Album. I used the paper collection from Ciao Bella Modern Times. This is going be donated to a crop in January. Thank you Frances for another quick & fun album to make.












Hello! I made this album for my friend who takes her daughter to Disneyworld and on Disney cruises. I hope you like it!!!
I have a so many stamps and dies and would like to incorporate them into a min album. Has anyone used them before in theirs?




Hello everyone, I’m Kirstie from Australia. I was introduced to scrapbooking when I was about 15 or 16. My mum used to enjoy visiting a second-hand bookshop in a small, half-abandoned arcade mall where many of the shops were shut. One day, while walking through to the other end, I saw the most beautiful store. It was painted bright pink and purple and filled with the most gorgeous paper and ribbons.
During the next school holidays, I dragged my sister along to do my first scrapbooking class. I created a page about my little dog, I’ll never forget it— and that’s when the obsession began. I even ended up working in that shop, although it only stayed in that location for a couple of months.
Over the years, I’ve mostly been collecting supplies rather than using them, but during the COVID lockdowns, I started card making and discovered a new love for creating folios and mini albums. I came across Frances just a few months ago, but with the hustle and bustle of life, I hadn’t found the time to try any of the tutorials.
The free trial came at just the right time—I had a weekend at home and decided to give it a go. I started with the ornamental box, as it was the first project I saw and thoroughly enjoyed it. I then spent the next few days poring over the trailers to see what else I might like to make—and I ended up saving over 20 projects! 😆 It looks like I’m going to be busy! I’ve already completed the beginner’s album, and tomorrow I’m planning to start on the fall album! Thank you Frances, I appreciate your efforts and I’m grateful to be part of this community! 🤗
