Hi everyone! This is Angela of Angie's Paper Passion and I'm very excited to share the mini album that I created with the Mini Books cartridge. My son and his family went on a cruise last month and I wanted to make my granddaughter, Viviana, her own little book for her cruise memories. The Mini Books cartridge has many different options for those quick little books that you can make for yourself or for gifts. They are very easy to make and put together. I used glittered cardstock, ribbons, brads and pop dots to embellish my project.
I used a lot of other cartridges for this mini including Life's A Beach, Pack Your Bags, Traveler, Ole and Destinations. There were just so many cute cuts for a vacation cruise!
There were some pages of the mini album that were cute but I felt that they were a little too small for this project. So I cut two each of the small pages and adhered them together to make packets for a larger tag. This gave me more room for photos and/or journaling.
This mini also has pockets to hold all of those vacation extras like tickets and other souvenirs.
This project was so much fun to put together and so easy, too. I know that Vivi will enjoy completing it with her cruise pictures and memories. I have many more photos of the mini album on my blog with all of the cut sizes. Just go to Angie's Paper Passion.
Thanks so much for visiting and I hope that I have inspired you to create something special with your Cricut today! Until next time, Happy Crafting, Angela
