This week on Live with Michele, I created this fun Mini Album using Basic White Cardstock and the Flight & Airy DSP from the Stampin’ Up! ® Sale-A-Bration Catalogue. Spend $90 from either the Annual or Mini Catalogue and you can get the Flight & Airy DSP for FREE!
This little album is great for a gift or as a Brag Book for a first time Grand Parent.
Measurements Used…
This album will hold 5 cropped photo’s or if you want to add more I would suggest adding a spacer (thin Chipboard – only use thin or two layers of Cardstock) in between the pages, to allow for decoration and photos on opposite pages.

Tips & Tricks
- An album like this you can use lots of srapes and left over bits from other Projects
- Ink around the pages for a shaddy or aged effect
- Use retired Ribbons for the spine
- Spacer – cut 2cm x 10cm
- Not shown on Video
- add Cardstock and DSP to back cover, measurements given above.
- Add sentiments to match with photos
- Add journaling giving a Who, When and Where to the photo used. I would suggest printing it onto cardstock and adhering to opposite page.
