Who said that you have to wait for Valentines Day to create projects about Love....No one ever!! This little mini was created using a few different digital collections from Katie Pertiet Designs that I printed to create my mini. There are so many printables in the shop, and if you have an electronic cutting machine, you wont stop using it!! And if you don't have one, the collections are a fussy cutters dream!

From papers, to ephemera, to digital stamps and so much more, you wont know what to purchase first!
For the cover, I used 49 and Market beautiful flowers. I added 4 metal page corner embellishments for a little glitz.
The mini album is my take on a sweet mini Amber Michell (bambidearr} created. Amber is so inspiring when it comes to sweet little minis!!
I love the spine, as book rings hold the pages in the mini, and then you can hang beautiful dangles on the outside. Even lots of lush ribbons would look gorgeous! I have a plethora of beads, so I created dangles. I also used leather fringe tassels. I created charms using the ephemera sentiment circles, placed a piece of chipboard in the middle and sandwiched 2 sentiments. I used gold paint on the edges, put a gold eyelet at top using my Cropadile and attached it to the top book ring using a bulb pin, and the other charm I hung from a dangle I created using letter and crystal beads.
I also created the little pink charm using a gold bezel, the heart was cut from one of the the papers then topped with an acrylic half dome. I bent back one of the loops on the bezel, and put a jump ring through it. I love creating dangles and charms for mini albums.
There are so many things you can use to adorn your pages. I created little envelopes using my We R Memory Makers envelope punch board and adhered it to the page. Before I attached it, I added the string to close the envelope once attached. I topped this one using the
Bolt Heart Butterfly Bow die from ScrapbookDiva Designs.
Each page in the mini is a pocket. I created a card to slide into each pocket. They make great photo mats!
Here is the card out of the pocket, and I also created small envelopes with cards to slide into the pocked as well.
Leave the flap of the little envelope outside the pocket.
Here is another mini envelope attached to one of the pages.
Dont glue the envelope together. Using the string to close it. All 4 flaps will open to reveal a little surprise, whether its a photo, journaling or a little love note, its up to you!
In the back inside cover, Using the Tim Holtz Heartbeat die, I created a paper covered chipboard heart to hold another love letter. I die cut the heart rhythm, glued it on the heart and sprinkled it with glitter.
I created a slide out card. The back was left plain to add your own journaling or love letter!
I put 7 pages into the album. There is room for more.
