Themes, layouts and inspirations
This teeny tiny 2.5×2.5 album from Eva is so sweet! It’s small enough to carry in your bag and a great way to focus on all the little things that make life special. She created her album base from colorblocked pattern paper, adding photos, journaling, pocket pages and embellishments, all tied closed with string.

I love interactive elements on a scrapbook layout, they are so fun to create and so fun for others to play with when flipping through your album! Nathalie created this wonderful Lilypad Gate using a variety of products and techniques to go over top of a stunning outdoor photo.
The base of the two arches were die cut using rainbow shaped dies from white and green cardstocks with scored hinge flaps that adhered behind the photo. The Lilypads were created with a dry embossing folder ran through a die cut machine and then she used coordinating dies to ink blend on the beautiful colors. Inside the flaps are other elements too like another photo and a softer stenciled scene with some sentiment strips scattered all around.

I love this mini album. Do you have a video? I’m having trouble following the instructions. Thank you.
You’d have to contact the designer at that blog, she only has photos in her post.
