Hello Crate Paper friends! Today I have a super sweet mini album using the gorgeous Magical Forest collection. Magical Forest is whimsical with such lovely colors and characters! It made mini album making super easy!
I made my 3.5″x 4.5″ album from with chipboard, I covered the outside with my favorite paper – Wildflower. Inside I added the Imaginary paper. I love the combination! I decided to add a book ring to the back cover to house a tag flip-style mini album.
I had to use this sweet little girl sticker on the front cover, I gave her a place to “live” with the grow like a wildflower die-cut and a small label on the bottom. I added the pink fabric bow to the top of the spine for extra cuteness! I love the addition of special embellishments that Crate Paper adds to the collections!
Inside I stacked up all kinds of “pages” onto the ring. First is a sweet rainbow tag and butterfly from the Magical Forest ephemera pack.
Next, I used the library card, the Park Thickers alpha and a sticker that just happened to be the perfect one for my photos. Hannah was 8 in these photos!
I used ephemera and cut-apart cards from the Willow paper for the photos. I added cute little flower stickers from the Magical Forest Sticker Book to the photos.
I made a few tags from vellum and decorated them with stickers from the Sticker Book to make an overlay for the photos below the vellum. Love how they turned out!
I can tell that the Park Thickers will be one of my favorite alphas this year!
I made a pocket with a smaller tag that pulls out and decorated the front with the squirrel sticker and a few more flower stickers! I love the sweet characters in this collection!
Another vellum overlay using clear stickers!
I haven’t made a mini this size before and I adore how cute and little it is! It is fun to hold and flip through and the perfect size for the gorgeous cut-parts and ephemera included in Magical Forest.
Magical Forest is a dream to create with. I definitely love how this mini turned out and I think you will love this collection too!
this album is adorable … where would one find instruction on how to make the actual album?
Thank you Kate! I don’t have instructions for this project, sorry about that!
Hi Lorilei. Did you use a chipboard kit or individual pieces? I love this!
Hi Alyson! Thank you! If you are referring to the album, I glued two layers of thick cardstock together and once dry cut them into sizes for the front and back cover and a spine piece!
