My Lone Wolf Designs Design Team Showcase for this month features the "He Said" line of "He Said She Said" by Teresa Collins. I used a 6x6 pad, Die cut sheet, Cardstock sticker sheet, and Mini envelopes. All of these came together to create a cute mini album for my husband for Father's Day.
For the mini album I used about 1/2 of the sheets from the paper pad and then added in a few pieces of Core'dinations cardstock and 3 different transparencies. I also made pages from a #8 tag, a piece of corrugated cardboard, and one of the mini envelopes from the collection. There are around 25 pages, which provides LOTS of room for photos. I used my photo editing software and added a 4-photo collage to each 4x6 sheet. When I sent them off to be printed, I had 8 regular 4x6 photos and 42 photo collages. Using the collage option allowed me to print smaller pictures (while having to do minimal cropping) which are perfect for this size of an album.
Be sure to check out the video below for a flip-thru of the mini album and some great tips for you to use when making your next mini album. If I have inspired you to create, please leave a comment below so I can check out your work!
Many of the supplies I used for my project can be ordered or purchased (at 25% off MSRP!) through Kris at Lone Wolf Designs. Please join the Facebook group Lone Wolf Designs Discount Retail Sales to make a purchase. If you are a crafter and haven't joined us yet, you are paying TOO MUCH for your supplies!

I'm honored that I got to see this adorable mini in person! You did a great job, as always!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tami. :)
DeleteWhat a great mini! I created one recently using this line mixed with Swagger collection. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteNice job as always. You didn't say anything about the front cover. Was that some of my appliques?
ReplyDeleteI didn't like the cover...that's why I avoided it. Neat trick, huh? And yes, that was one of your appliques. It's the 2nd time I have used one of them. Thank you for sharing them with me. :)
DeleteSlick move! I loved the cover, BTW.
DeleteThanks! Barry likes it, so I guess that's all that matters. LOL
DeleteDeAnna, you have done it again! This album is awesome and Barry is going to cherish it forever! Thank you for the hard work and time spent on this project and for sharing it with all of us. I love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kris! I enjoyed making it. I had fun trying out a few new things with it.
DeleteAmazing album...love all the details you have put into it...
