Le Cirque Mini Album

New Album and Facebook

Hi there!
I just finished another album using Graphic 45's Le Cirque paper line. I haven't taken pictures of the whole thing yet, but I wanted to at least show you the cover. The video is being uploaded to Youtube right now. I will post a link when it is finished. I also started a Time For Scrappin page on Facebook. You can see my badge to the left of this post. I thought it would be a great way to have actual conversations with you guys. I feel lonely, sometimes I feel like I am bloggin to myself! :) I will try to get some album pics on here later today!

Graphic 45 Once Upon a Springtime Mini Album

Brace yourself everyone. I have a ton of pictures to show you! I just finished my new 8x8 spring album. There is about 37 pictures in all, which isn't too surprising since it took me almost 30 hours to make!! I used the new Graphic 45 "Once Upon a Springtime" collection, which is gorgeous! I used my entire 12x12 paper stack on it, with only a few scraps left.
I used two primary sources for my graphics:

This is a great shop on Etsy with beautiful vintage french postcards

and here is a blog with some of the best free clip art that I have found

Here is a link to the video for this album:

I also finally finished a tutorial on my book binding process that I have been working on for months. I like my albums to look as close to "real" books as possible. I don't like to use paper bags, book rings, or chipboard for the pages, so I developed my own method.  The tutorial gives you step by step instructions and a picture for every step. Here is a link to my Etsy shop where the tutorial can be found:

Now let's look at the mini!
