I AM Gifting Mini Album
Hi everyone! Shellye here to share an easy-to-make gifting mini album using the "I Am" Collection.
[1]To begin I started with three of the components from the Interactive Elements [2]: the larger 4X6 flip element, the matchbook element and the tri-fold element:
[3]I adhered the two smaller elements to the inside pages of the 4X6 element with a high-tack adhesive.
[4]The front was decorated with chibpoard stickers and a ribbon bow.
[5]When the album is first opened, the original pages from the 4X6 element is given. I added a strand of washi tape, a chipboard butterfly, etc. The opposite page was left blank.
[6]When the page is turned, you will find the tri-fold element has been added to the right-hand page.
[7]Here is a close-up of the front of the tri-fold.

[9]To the inside of the tri-fold, a 3X4 journal card was attached. The other pages were left plain so that small photos or journaling can be added.
[10]As you go further into the 4X6 flip element, the pages get larger. The left-hand side of the page was lightly embellished and the right-hand side is where the matchbook-style element was added.

[13]Just the front of the matchbook element was embellished; the inside pages were left as-is.

[15]I wanted the back of the album to be a bit more sturdy, so a piece of medium-weight chipboard was cut slightly smaller than the 4X6 size. After adhering the chipboard to the back page, a covering was made by adding one of the 4X6 journal cards.
Now I have the perfect little girlie-girl gift on hand...with a teenaged daughter, we're always needing a last-minute gift for a friend :)
