Hey friends! Brianna here today and I'm so excited to share a few things from inside my Family themed 6x8 Mini Album using the Farmhouse collection. Here's a look at the first thing you see when you open my album:
I love to create shaker elements on my projects, so I knew I had to include one (or maybe two..) inside this album. I wanted to include a fun embellishment inside the shaker element itself, so I adhered the Thankful For You Shaker Pop on the inside of one of the plastic sleeves. I then poured in quite a bit of the Fall Flowers and Shades of Fall Shakers mixes and sealed it up by running it through my sewing machine. I love how it turned out!
Right after my large shaker element, you'll find these two spreads. I had so much fun making these!! I mainly create 12x12 layouts with a few mini albums thrown in.. So when I do create a mini, I have a lot of fun with them. I do have to say though, I find it a little more challenging to create on a smaller canvas versus creating on a larger one. I don't know if it's the limited space that throws me off or if it's something that will just go away if I create in that size more often.
Here's the left half of my spread, where I trimmed out my cards using the Fall Bouquet 12x12 paper and then cut out the 'Fall Memories' card from the Woodland Berries 12x12 paper for some journaling. I matted my photos with the 6x6 Paper Pad and embellished around them using a few elements from the Bits & Pieces pack. I also included a few Puffy Icons stickers, a tag from the Chit Chat pack and some word phrase stickers from the 12x12 Icons sticker sheet.
For the top card on the right side of this spread, I adhered a large journaling piece from the Bits & Pieces pack and layered my photo to the right of it. I then added a simple phrase banner piece from the Chit Chat pack and added some of the Flower Farm Shape Sprinkles around. For the bottom card, I cut out a 3x6 strip of paper from the 6x6 Paper Pad and stuck it right in the middle. I matted my photo using another piece of paper and layered it behind a large die cut from the Bits & Pieces pack. I then finished it off by adding in a few Puffy Icon heart stickers.
Here's one last look:
Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope that I've inspired you in some way. If you missed my first mini album post, you can read it here. I'm really enjoying working in this album and sharing bits and pieces along the way. I'll see you in my next post friends!
