For My Little Friends Mini Album

September 6, 2011 by Holly Gagnon 13 Comments

  I made these mini-album’s for my little friend’s next door who just happen to be 9 and 7 years old.  I recently shared another project, Flowers for a Friend, that I made for there mom who was also a dear friend to me.

I first have to give thanks to Rhonda from Scrap Happens for sharing some tips on how to make mini-albums. She makes awesome albums, check out her blog!

Audrey’s album is cut from the Hello Kitty Cartridge and has a butterfly page which fits into the Getting Cricky -Winged challenge.   Ethan’s likes bugs, so his album is cut from Doodlecharms and also contains a few winged friends.

I added some photo on a few pages and left other pages blank so the kids can add there own photos.
 

Bugs and Frog Mini Album Pages

I enjoyed making these albums and will definitely make more.  They did take a lot of cuts and layers to look right though.  I added google eyes, ribbons, embossed some layers and stamped some sentiments to make these albums really special for them.
