Hi everyone, I'm excited to share a fun and SUPER EASY-TO-MAKE Mini Album using 2 small black paper bags and Prima's new GORGEOUS-EXCITING "ENGRAVERS" Collection! And, I have to say... when I first saw this new collection I knew it was going to be my new favorite (and I was right!) I love it and I had a amazing fun time creating this project using all the deep warm colors with all vintage prints!! Any project you create with Prima's Engraver Collection is sure to be stunning. Also, I know there's alot of your scrappy gal pals that would love to receive this as a gift!! :)

Ok.. so here's a quick video showing how fun and easy it is to create a little mini using this collection. And, no worries, there will definately be a Live With Prima UStream class showing you how to create this beautiful project from start to finish (date of class is still being set for near future).
Here's some photo's of the Paper Bag Mini I created. I love how simple and fast this project was to create! Keeping the inside pages simple yet filled with patterned paper enables the recipient lots of fun opportunities to add their own special touch to the pocket size paper bag mini!

Stephanie, I love the project...love all of your projects. Mostly I love your enthusiasm! You are such a delight and wonder what it would be like to follow you around for a day. Do you run at warp speed all day? Do you get tired? I must admit that I am tired after I finish watching your videos but I always have a smile on my face and come away learning something new. Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteI really like your albums all the flowers and little charms in different places. I'm new at these mini albums I have been scrapbooking 12zx12s and I accidently discovered mini albums. I wanted to make my niece a small album of her baby shower so I just started buying chipboard and stuff but didn't really know where to start and there is You Tube. Now I'm addicted. It's so much fun!
ReplyDeleteHi Steff, getting ready for class - I live in Kansas CST, what time does the class begin.
ReplyDeleteThanks & Hugs
