Mini Album...

I'm on a self-imposed shopping ban for the month of August. On the Cricut Circle Message board, I joined a 'use what you have' for the month of August challenge. I can do that. I think. gulp.

So the other day, as I was checking out some other blogs, I stumbled on this tutorial
 at Fantabulous Cricut. They have some great tutorials posted, and I thought this album turned out so cute. Here is my take on it.















This album was so easy to put together with the tutorial, and didn't take any special tools or equipment. Anyone with adhesive and some cardstock can put this album together.

For the cricut cuts, I used once upon a princess and paisley. The princess is cut at 3.5 inches, the toadstool at 2 and the froggy at 2.5.  The sweetheart title was cut at 1 inch, and the oh lala was 2 inches. :)

I used these teeeeny rhinestones in the corners of all my photo mats, and i got them at scrapbuck.com. I need to go on and get some more, because i used so many on this project! they are so tiny and cute though, i just loved using them.

I'm not a big mini album person, but I'm going to give these albums to friends as gifts. They were a lot of fun to make, and I was able to use up some of my stash making them!!

tfl, and ttfn. ;)
