How fabulous is this purse shaped mini scrapbook album from Sabaa!? This stunning design is a purse shape with a magnetic flap and even a handle to hold it by decorated with mixed media 3D elements. It has accordion sides that create sections inside to slip in separate individual pages. She used the Always and Forever collection of supplies from Graphic 45 to create a wedding themed album in teals and pinks with lots of florals, butterflies and bows but you could create any style you’d like.
The pretty pages are double sided with places for matted photos or journaling on one side and decorated on the other side with coordinating stickers, pattern papers and embellishments with a lacey trim along the top of each one.
You can find step by step directions, a cutting and scoring template and a video tutorial so you can create your own purse accordion album over on the Graphic 45 blog.
