Something fun

It's been a while since I've posted anything. Work has me tied down with very little time for posting and creating. I came across a YouTube video showing how to make a cardstock mini album. It is super easy, takes very little supplies, and oh so fun to make. I've made about seven already.

I made a few as gifts for three of my co-workers. I'm really pleased with how they turned out. I changed them up a bit from the video, but the base idea stayed the same.

Here is the video.

This was the first one I made. It was for another teacher in my department. She just had her first two grandchildren within months of each other.







I'm crazy about paper flowers and glitter.




This is the first page. It's 6x6.



As you open each page there's more and more. It's similar to a gate style card.


I added pockets for tags. I wanted more space for pictures.


It just keeps going.


The center is the final page. It's a tri fold.


Front of tri fold.



Back of tri fold.


The very back. I thought a nice picture would look really cute here.

I hope you've enjoyed this. If you have questions just ask.

Happy stampin' and scrappin'!
