To inspire you today...

I wanted to share this adorable Mini-book with you that Tannis created for a recent class here at the store!



 Signs of Spring Mini book!



 Using the "It's The Little Things" paper line from Fancy Pants.  Made the cover out of Chipboard and covered it with Spring Fever paper, cover word "Spring" & the bird is from the Chipboard Pieces pack.
Pockets consist of white envelopes, manilla tag pull outs are Manilla folders from Dollarama, just cut to size.
Album is held together with 1 inch binding rings (holes were punches with the Crop-a-dile Big bite.

All edges were distressed with Black Soot distress ink from Tim Holtz.

I hope you feel inspired today to create something too!!

Easy Summer Layouts:-)

Check out these simple summer layouts using Echo Park's "Summer Days" paper line!
 I did the pages first with patterned paper, the element sticker sheet & Alphabet stickers.








then came the easy part...taking the pictures here at Summer in the City:-)  and then adding them... here is what they look like now:-)



















 I did go through the matching Chipboard and Brads and just added a little to the pages:-)   I really liked this idea alot!  At first it took a little thinking when I looked at my photos and see what would fit on which page, but once again - printing photos from home was a great advantage, I could look and print what I wanted, I think I printed only 2 additional photos I did not use.
Whether you like to "pre-scrap" your pages or "scrap" them after the fact - I hope you take LOTS of amazing pics this summer and create LOTS of beautiful Layouts:-)

I hope you feel inspired!

finishing up the 100 days of Summer Mini album...

in this post, I had started this book, it is all done now:-)  Here are some pics of the end result.

























so when you don't have time to Scrap all the BIG moments in a month - a mini book is a great way to capture ALL those special moments on a smaller scale.
I hope you feel inspired!
