"All is Bright" Matchbook Mini Album

I'm so glad you're back again today. I have another mini album to share with you. This one is called a "Matchbook Mini" and it's inspired by the creations of Laura Denison. This mini was a delight to create and it didn't take very long. I followed all the instructions from Laura's blog. Click here to read her blog post and follow along with her simple instructions.

The paper that I used to create this mini is the My Mind's Eye "All is Bright" paper line. This paper and all the embellishments are just beautiful! I loved the soft vintage colors and the chevron and hexagon accents.

Here is a video showing my completed album.

Don't forget to pick up the December card kit "Wonderland Fun" found here. It's a great kit to have to create some super delightful Christmas projects. It's also the perfect gift to give that crafter that loves loves loves beautiful paper!

This month all the designers are taking a few days to share some amazing cards and projects. I hope you get inspired!

"Lost and Found" Christmas Envelope Mini Album

Happy Monday everyone! Can you believe it's already December? I know right. How did this happen?

Well I've been in full Christmas crafty mode for some time now. Ever since the new Christmas paper lines have come out, I've been a crafting fool. You can never have too many cards, tags, mini albums, or projects on hand. You never know when you'll need an instant gift or goodie.

Today I've created a Christmas mini album using the "Lost and Found" Christmas paper line by My Mind's Eye. The main component of this mini is created using envelopes. Here is a video tutorial on how I created this mini.




Supplies:

 My Mind's Eye - Lost & Found Christmas - Glittered Adhesive Chip
MME "Lost and Found" Christmas
products found here

To create this album I used the following measurements:
8 large envelopes (71/4" by 5 1/4")
  -seal 2 envelopes and leave for the front and back covers
  -seal 6 envelopes and cut the length of each to 7"
6 large tags cut from cardstock (6 1/4" by 5")
12 papers to cover each side of the envelopes (6" by 4 1/4")

While your busy purchasing all the amazing Christmas papers from the Shop Pumpkin Spice online store, make sure to purchase the December card kit called Wonderland Fun. 



Be sure to stop back tomorrow! I'm sharing another Christmas mini album. Hint : matchbook mini.
