I used the Kindful Mini -as is, no alterations to size - to complete my May challenge. I used the Secret Garden paper collection from Carta Bella. Though I love the collection, I wish it had more options in the darker prints and more options aside from floral patterns, the doors and keys were cute. I didn't go as shabby chic as I could have since I have gaps in my materials that need filling (Amazon here I come...) I think this will be an album tutorial that I return to often. #maychallenge #kindfulminichallenge

My desk always looks like a tornado hit it when I'm nearing the end. The chaos works. However when I'm done with the book, I have to straighten and put everything back from whence it came so that I can find it for the next project that uses that thing. #judgementfreezone #didyousaychaos

Thank you all for making me feel better about this book since it's for something so special! I used paper from several different packs and some individual sheets from Hobaby Lobaby. I used:

Paper Studio - Black on Black (Hobaby Lobaby)

A few sheets from Recollections paper pad Night Sky (Michaels)

A few sheets from Recollections Club Velvet (Michaels)

A few sheets from Recollections Enchanted Botanica (Michaels)

I bought several individual papers from Hobaby Lobaby in black and gold floral, matte black, textured gold and a few other miscalaneous.

It was a lot but I think they matched pretty well.

I wasn't able to find the time to do a 4th bee book but I'm a step ahead on the May challenge. I've made my daughter a wedding book - her colors are black, dark burgundy and ecru with hints of gold and silver. Very hard combo to find scrapbook paper in this combo so I fabricobbled it together. I used the Kindful Mini pattern but took it from 8x8 to 8x10. I had to make adjustments inside and some worked well and some did not.
This is my 3rd try to make a book for her and I'm still critical. If anyone knows of a wedding pack that would fit better with this colors, I'd appreciate a heads up!

I love your design! It flows so well and love the multiple stamps on the photo mats. The beads and bee are adorable! I could go on and on but this is gorgeous! 💜

This looks so awesome! Love your ephemera thought and the layering of papers. It all works so well together!

For me, sometimes the heavier paper feels like it's more sturdy if I don't have to do much bending (which for me seems like it doesn't bend cleanly). If it will hold pockets or flips, it's nice that it's sturdier.
