What a creative challenge we have for April’s New at SU! Blog Hop! We are “CASE”ing (= Copy And Share Everything) each other on the design team, and I was inspired by Karen Henderson’s fabulous MINI ALBUM that she made for our last hop AND her OnStage 2024 experience!

If you didn’t see Karen’s album last month, you’ll be visiting her Furry Cat Designs blog next, or you can click on the link above to see how she used the Nature’s Sweetness products to create her album in March.

I chose to use the Lighter Than Air Designer Series Paper and the Mini Alphabet Dies to capture the fun of being GRANDparents and make my album with a fold over closure to keep it all together.

Karen’s idea to score the 6″x6″ pages at 4″ was brilliant, so I did the same. On the “short” pages, I added a photo or journaling flap:

Here are some of the pages in my album (just starting to journal our recent visit to see the grandkids…):

Because my pictures are larger, I cut some of them to spread across two pages.

The album base is 6.5″ x 11″, scored at 4.25″, 4.75″, 9″ and 9.5″ and used 11 sheets of the 6″ Designer Series Paper to create the pages, gluing them back to back. On a few (like the tulip page above), I just adhered the edges and bottom of two pages together, so I could create a pocket between them with a large tag I can pull out and journal on! Other supplies listed below.

Perhaps this type of album should be a class? Would you be interested in attending?

I’m so glad you visited me and hope you’ll leave a message for me before you hop over to Furry Cat Designs to see how Karen was inspired by Angie!
