Disney inspired 5x7 Mini Album

I wanted to create a mini album to give to each of my granddaughters who are coming to visit this summer.  I got my digital papers from Miss Kate Cuttables along with some images.  Other images are from Cricut.com Design Space. I made the pages for this album using the pocket/flap style from Scrapdaworld on YouTube.  I also used Kathy Orta's hidden hinge system.  I learned how to make it from Scrapbooking with M.E. on YouTube.  Links to all supplies and Videos are at the end of this post.

The title on the cover is a print and cut from a SVG image I purchased at Miss Kate Cuttables.  I added CTMH clear and gold shimmer on the balloons and over the Red and Yellow words.  Now, they sparkle!

I put six pages in this album.  I used cardstock for the layers on the tags that I had in my stash so I have no idea where the red, yellow, or blue came from.  The black and white are from Close to My Heart.

Inside the front cover I put a small pocket to hold ephemera. Right now it holds extra clip art I made using my Cricut.  The small Snow White and Cinderella are actually printed from Cricut Desing Space onto printable shrink plastic from my stash.  I heated it with my heat gun and put a ribbon in a hole I cut prior to heating.
You can see the photo mat tags sticking up from their pockets.  On the top of the tags are little pull tabs I made using Cricut Design Space by welding a small tag onto a rectangle. Now, my pull tabs match the theme. I learned most of my Cricut skills from Melody Lane.

If you are interested in taking a class to make mini albums or to order one for yourself, please contact me.
