Book Lovers Mini Album

Other than paper crafting one of my favorite hobbies is reading. I set aside time every night to read and I definitely consider myself a Book Nerd. So this Book Lovers mini album project from Traci really speaks to me. She used her 6″ x 8″ clear acrylic album, that comes with white pages and 3 metal ring binders and decorated the cover and layouts with the Bookish collection from Echo Park Paper.

This album is a terrific way to keep track of what you’ve read, what you want to read, favorite authors and books, notes, thoughts and ratings of books with lists and trackers.

She create fun fold out flaps and pocket pages too. On your layouts you can also include images of book covers, autographs or photos meeting your favorite authors or pics from your book club.

How darling is this mini friendship journal from Diane!? It’s so cute, filled with stamped Teddy Bears and sweet sentiments in it’s own little floral box. She used dies and stamps from Art Impressions to create this sweet little project that would be perfect to send to a friend to brighten their day, you could even include photos and personalized journaling to make it more of a mini scrapbook if you’d like. The box the journal is in was die cut from blue cardstock with an open window on the top and covered in custom “pattern paper” that she stamped and colored with a magnet snap to keep it closed.

She used plaid, striped and polka dot pattern paper to decorate each page, using more blue cardstock for the base of the album. Each page has has either a stamped sentiment or a different sweet bear stamped in sepia ink and water colored with markers on a white die cut panel with pretty detailed edges.
