7 Gypsies Camden mini album

 Magnetic closure is used on the front cover of this 7 Gypsies Camden paper 8 3/4 x 9 1/4 book. I used a lot of shipping tags and put in lots of flaps, cause that's what I like to do, and the edges of the pages are all paper punched with different punch designs. It has a lot of pages, but here are just a few ...

The little booklet below is magnetized onto the page above and comes off so that a large photo can go behind it. The booklet will hold 7 photos.

DCWV Linen Closet envelope mini

Talk about quick...I started this after lunch and had it done in time to make dinner. This mini is made with Kraft card envelopes and the flaps are made by simply inserting the cards that come with the envelopes. I saw a short video posted on Pinterest by scrapbookgirl.typepad.com for this and then ran with it. The only thing I did differently was to add a chipboard cover. To do that I added a piece of kraft paper cut to the size of the spine of the grouped envelopes plus an inch on either side so I could make some side flaps to use with a stack the deck method.  I didn't do any embellishing since I really just wanted to test this envelope method out.

The envelopes are 4 1/4 x 5 1/2" so this is a small book. But with 2 places for pictures on the envelops and 4 places on the "cards" it adds up to about 40 pictures.

Antique Paperie Mini

An 8x8 paper pad by Colorbok called Antique Paperie caught my eye at a CHA a few years ago and the colors matched perfectly to the Easy Breezy collection of papers by The Paper Loft. I added a few sweet antique postcards and a couple of papers from My Minds Eye and October Afternoon. A chipboard cover, stack the deck binding, some flips and flaps and tags and a lot of TLC and wallah!

Thanks for looking!

For the Record Mini Album

 I've used this paper before on another project but it seemed fitting for this little mini for my niece who is packing up and moving a long distance away from friends and family. This paper is by Echo Park and is called For the Record. I used the front page of the packaging for the title and added some chipboard behind "the news". I made a pocket to hold the tags so her friends can journal their thoughts at her going away party. And there's plenty more tags inside too. (She has a LOT of friends.) And plenty of photo mats to document her send-off.

This is a vertical paperbag album made by the instructions from mysisterscrapper channel on youtube. I've used that in another project as well and found it very easy to follow.

Each page has a flap

and each page has a photo mat pull-out.

The binding method is the "stack the deck" by Laura Denison

Timeless Stack DCWV Vertical Paperbag Mini Album

This mini album uses the vertical paper bag tutorial from youtube.com. It has serious photo storage capacity!  You just need 6 paper bags, a piece of chipboard and the stack the deck binding method for this mini. I used the DCWV Timeless Stack for the design and incorporated some cardstock tags, designed by Jackie Burns, using the Cameo cutting machine. Each page set has at least one flap. I used Tim Holtz tape, a library pocket, a Jolee watch sticker, and a few other items from my stash for the embellishing.

Here are just a few of the pages to give you an idea of how this works up. I love the waterfall photo feature on the inside of the back page.

 As always, thanks for looking.
