I saw this American Girl stack at Michael's and the papers are just sooooo super cute! Of course, by this time my daughter is no longer this little girly girl but I went ahead and bought it anyway thinking she's got all the girly girl pictures that I have not scrapbooked yet.
The idea of the tall envelope mini is Laura Dennison's at followingthepapertrail.ning.com. She has a tutorial on how to make this mini using business envelopes. Mine are all recycled envelopes.. I found it tedious or perhaps I was just a little impatient... but here's what I came up with.
The mini album is made of 2 business envelopes.
I used a Troll key chain doll which I had for just like forever... as the charm. I tied pieces of lace on the key rings which I used to bind the pages together.
The first page is made up of several tags with prima flowers and a Martha Stewart butterfly die cut which I stickled with blue. Below is a close-up of the flowers and butterfly.
Below is the first page with the tags, which can be used as additional photo mats, were taken out of the small pocket.
I just love these papers! the colors are so vibrant!
More tags or photo mats...
All I have to do now is add the pictures! TFL.
