Mother's Day mini album

I made my Mother-in-law a cute mini album for Mother's day.  She always wants pictures of the kids but likes good old fashioned hard copies.  Which is something I can appreciate.  I've never made my own before but thought I'd give it a shot.  I kept the colors more neutral with some glacier as an accent color.  I mixed patterns since I kept all the colors similar.  I also used some gold polka dot washi tape.  The paper was cut to 6x12 and attached together by washi tape.  


Here I stamped all the images and then went over them with liquid glass.


This is the inside, I used the washi to create a couple flaps for additional photos.



  I used double sided paper so that helped with coordinating the paper.  This is the backside.  I used liquid glass to secure the ribbon under the back cover.



Just a few of the pictures that I included in the album.


Overall this album wasn't really difficult and would be very easy for a beginner.  *Here's a tip too:  I don't have a score board yet so I did improvise by using the groove of my paper cutter and a boning tool.
