AT THE ZOO MINI ALBUM | with Traci

Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I've created an acrylic tabbed mini album with a super cute jungle theme! I made it with the adorable At The Zoo Collection and it's perfect for highlighting photos of the zoo, Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park, a safari, a birthday party, a petting zoo, baby photos, a baby shower, or a school field trip. This collection is great for so many pictures!

Zoo Jungle Scrapbook Acrylic Mini Album with lots of cute animal and prints

I designed this with my 5x7 inch clear Acrylic Tabbed Album, but you could easily make this out of white card stock or chipboard instead. On the cover, I added the zebra print called Zoo Animals, a scallop circle sticker from the This & That, and lots of cute die cuts from the Odds & Ends. The panda might be my favorite!

On each of the tabs, I added lots of word stickers from the This & That. Then inside, I strategically layered photo mats and embellishments to match on both sides of the clear acrylic pages. That way, you never see the adhesive.

On this first page, I wanted to add a little punch of red so I made the photo mat out of the petite print wood grain in ladybug. Then, I embellished with a cute blue seal from the Odds & Ends, another word sticker from the This & That, and a shiny enamel shape sprinkle called Jungle Leaves. Oh, how I ❤️ sprinkles.

I also love mixing patterns from the 12x12 and 6x6 paper pad. The page above is a great example. The small journaling card and the tiny Zippity-Zoo Dots are from the 6x6 prints. On the page behind it, I added the larger 12x12 dot paper. And ... the cute toucan bird die cut just matches it all perfectly!

This collection is so fun to play with and it's filled with sweet faced little animals. Just look at the Zoo Friends print in the photo above and you'll get a quick glimpse at the whole adorable crew!

Who loves a good zebra print besides me? The bold black and white pattern is awesome and it looks great with a touch of pink and green. So, I added the fun little flamingo and a few more enamel leaves.

I haven't made a zoo or jungle themed mini album in years, so this was so much fun for me. The At The Zoo Collection is amazing and I hope my scrapook inspires you to create something new as well. Happy crafting!
