Accordion mini album

This album is really easy to make.  I found the instructions on Pinterest to create an accordion album.    I used these instructions. The only thing I changed was using additional pieces of card stock to cover the backside of the thin cardboard I used for the front and back cover.  This would be a personal preference.  I think it gives it a more finished look to not be able to see the cardboard when you open up the album.  It will stick out a little since the covers are cut bigger.  I just used a cereal box for the cardboard.  This album uses the Documented paper pack.  It's a great way to create a small brag book or gift for someone.  














Supplies used to create this project are:

If you have any questions on creating this feel free to comment below.  Also would you prefer if I take photos while creating in addition to the finished project?  Please comment and let me know that too.  Thanks!

Hanging photo frame

Ever have a project that you’ve had in your stash for years just waiting to put together?  Me neither!  In all seriousness I have so many ideas and this happens to be the year I’m making time for me and actually getting them done.  My hope is that this inspires you and lets you release some of the guilt from buying said project(s) so that you can enjoy the creative process!

I purchased this kit so long ago I have no idea where I got it but I’m sure these are still available at a craft store.  I had liked the project but wasn’t crazy about the papers and ribbons that were included.  So instead I used the Beautiful Friendship paper, complements, white pearls, white enamel dots, bashful enamel dots, white twine, light grey ribbonclear shimmer brush, and fresh air shapes.
