"Our Holiday" Mini Album

Sadly, the Kaisercraft outlet store not far from my house recently closed its doors. On the upside though, there were loads of great bargains on offer in the final weeks of trade. I ended up bringing home quite a stash of papers including this wonderful seaside collection, which I made into a cute little holiday album.

I love Kaisercraft papers - have alot of the paper pads. This looks like it might be the 12 x 12 though? You are so lucky to have picked up so many bargains but yeah sad that the store has closed. Too many of them seem to be closing here too. Love the album you made - is this something you have made from scratch?

It's fabulous!

Hi Suze. Yes, I used a collection of the 12" x 12" papers for this album. I don't think they had the paper pad in stock otherwise I would have grabbed one. I really like the little books too, they're so handy and easy to store.
I usually make all my mini albums from scratch, that way I can make them in whatever size I like. Plus I enjoy the process of creating the cover.
Cheers,
Beccy

Wow. You are so clever. I'd love to have a go at making something like this.

I would love to make something like this too as going away with my daughter and grandson in two weeks and would love to remember our holiday together, but don't know how to make one could you please help with a tutorial? I would be so grateful, best wishes x

Hi Missypope. A trip with your daughter and grandson sounds wonderful, I'm sure you'll have a great time together! And I agree that it's a perfect excuse for creating a little album.
If you look down the left hand side of my blog you will find a long list of labels. About halfway down there is one called "mini albums". Click on that and you'll find all the posts I have done that feature a mini album. There are quite a few tutorials in there about how to make them, scroll through to find one that works for you.
Enjoy your trip!
Cheers,
Beccy
