I started by painting the cover of the mini album. I used the red paint for the front sides and the pink for the insides. I set them aside to dry.

Next, I painted the Clear Scraps: Chipboard Script Love Word Title Love in pink. Let it dry. Once dry I sprayed it with the Chroma Mist in Tiara for the perfect shimmer. Set it aside to dry.

While my covers and title were drying I cut 4 panels 3-1/2" x 5-1/2" from 110lb White cardstock. These will be the pages of the album. I also cut the 80lb Black cardstock about 1/4" smaller than the page, I also trimmed the pattern papers a 1/4" smaller than the Black mats for the pages. Along with a variety of shapes from White cardstock that will be my photo mats.

I then adhered all the layers and decorated each page with a sticker and 

a few Clear Scraps Sprinkles: Heart Love for a total of 8 pages.

Now that the covers are dry I start to assemeble the album. I start by adhereing the

 Clear Scraps: Chipboard Script Love Word Title Love onto the front cover.

Next, I punch the two holes on each page that match up with the front and back cover of 

the Clear Scraps: Hearts Wood Card using the Crop-a-dile. 

I insert the rings on the back cover then all the pages followed by the the front cover and close the rings.

I add a few decorative ribbons to the rings.

Now, the Mini Love Album is complete!

Friends, Birthdays and Betty Boop...

The month of May was filled with lots of fun activities for our family. We had Mother's day, school functions, Our youngest daughter was inducted into the National Junior Honor Society. Then there was a few birthdays -- my hubby's, several other family members and 2 neighbor friends (One of which I have become so very close to). 

She (Norma) loves all things Betty Boop. So, for her birthday gift I created a mini envelope album. I decided to keep it simple because she doesn't scrapbook and finds it very intimidating. I figured this would be a great way to get her into scrapbooking. After, receiving her album she wants to create one of her children and grandson. 

I love the way envelope album give you pockets to hide journaling on minis. 

Thanks for looking. Leave me a comments.
