Webster's Pages Let's Celebrate Mini Album

     I'm often asked how I make my mini albums or layouts. I'm not sure if this will help but I'm going to try and give a short explanation for those of you who are interested. I'm working on a birthday album for my daughter right now. It's not finished yet but I have some pages done so I'll use them for my brief explanation.
The paper collection I'm using is Webster's Pages Let's Celebrate.

    Често се случува мои пријатели или познаници да ми поставуваат прашања за тоа како ги правам моите мини албуми. Не сум сигурна дали ова ќе помогне, но јас ќе се обидам да дадам кратко објаснување за оние од вас кои се заинтересирани. Моментално работам на еден роденденски албум за мојата ќерка. Се уште не е завршен, но ја имам направено насловната и првата страница така што ќе ги искористам за моето кратко објаснување. Ја користам колекцијата  Let's Celebrate од компанијата Webster's Pages.


"Let's Celebrate" collection kit

6 double sided patterned papers

Let's Celebrate trims


    What I first do is decide what paper I'm going to use on the cover. Here I chose the paper "Garden Party". I used it on the cover and the first page.
    
    Прво избирам која хартија ќе ја искористам за насловната страна. Овде ја имам употребено "Garden Party". Долниот дел од хартијата е употребен на насловната, а горната половина од хартијата на првата страна од албумот.

   I also used another paper called "You're invited". I cut out some pieces which I then glued on the cover and the first page. I put a piece of the yellow trim on the edge of the page.

   Исто така имам искористено и друга хартија која го носи името "You're invited". Имам исечено некои мотиви од хартијата и ги имам залепено на насловната и првата страна од албумот.

  The second page of the album is made with the same paper. I cut out the green rectangular piece saying "JOIN US in celebrating ...." and glued it on the page. I added some fussy cut elements like the balloons, some flowers etc. I finished the second page with some trims - the hot pink put under the journaling element and the purple trim glued on the edge of the page. The final touch was the pink flower from the mini Princess Petals.

  Page four of the album is made with the paper called "Wrapping paper".

  Страна четири од албумот е направена од хартијата "Wrapping paper".

  For page five I used the paper "Party Blooms", Webster's Pages bloomers (pink) glued on the edge of the page, a heart pin and some fussy cut pieces from the paper and the journaling cards.

  За страна пет ја имам искористено хартијата "Party Blooms", розовата цветна трака која е залепена на работ од страната, исечени делчиња од хартијата (горниот дел на хартијата) или од картичките за пишување и сл.

  Page six is made with the same paper and the pink bloomer glued on the edge. There are some fussy cut elements tucked behind the photo and the pink cake, a butterfly pin, a piece of a journaling card etc.

PRIMA Sparkling Spring Mini Album

   I've been working on a mini album for a while and I wanted to show you what I've done until now. The album is not finished yet but since I haven't posted for almost a month I thought it would be a good idea to do just that.
   I've used the Sparkling Spring collection by Prima, and some other Prima flowers waiting in my scrapbook stash to be used. The photos are of my daughter, taken at different age and different occasions. Since the album is not finished yet here are just a few pages. I'll post the rest when they are ready.










   I added eyelets to all of the pages but you cannot see that on some of the photos because they were taken earlier. The final pages are due soon.

   Here are some of the final pages of the album. It took me a while to finish it but I'm finally near the end. 








   Hope you like it! Bye for now!

'Beautiful summer days' - a layout made using Prima's Sun Kiss collection

   Hello everyone! Fall has already started but with this warm weather I still feel inspired to scrap spring and summer photos. I have tons of photos taken, waiting to be scrapped. The photo I chose for this layout is among my favorite photos of my daughter. The layout is based on the Prima's September Build-a-Page sketch and since we had to use their products on the project I decided to use the Sun Kiss collection which I simply love. Everything about this collection is simply adorable: the patterned papers, the flowers, the chipboard pieces and all the other embellishments. The colors of this collection make me think of beautiful and warm summer days full of sunshine. That's where the title comes from. 


   Don't you just love that bicycle? It's so cute.
