I designed and created a mini album for my mom with

pictures and memories all about ME! She asked

me to do this for her. She really wanted a mini album of

photos of me when I was just a little girl.

Here is how the project started.

I pre-cut the pages before I design 
them so I know how much space I will have.

All the pages follow a similar color scheme- pink, black and white.  I prefer this with an album of this length.

The embellishments change on each page.

The background of the paper was stamped before it was
embossed.

Each page has at least one picture, black ribbon, and an embellishment.

 

On each birthday page, there is a flower to represent the number of years I am celebrating.  So this page has one flower.

Using twine with buttons gives a project added dimension.

Turning two, so this page has two flowers:)

Try putting the ribbon over the photo for a different look.

Three flowers for a three year old.

The background paper is embossed with many different folders.

All the  letters for this project were cut from the 

Kate's ABC's Cricut cartridge.

Finally four, so four flowers for me:)

The "Pocket full of memories" for my mom holds a tag that I made her that says "I Love my mom."  It also holds wallet size school pictures.  This was a really fun album to make.  

I love how it turned out and so does my mom!!!  I hope I have inspired you to make one:)  Maybe you can work together with your mom!!
