Hello my dear!
Yesterday I came across an easy and wonderful tutorial on making mini album from toilet paper rolls. I was so inspired that just on the spot created a mini and I'm sharing it with you today. I can't describe how much fun I had making it. Easy, quick and cute!
I decided to use Mo Manning digi "Baby Fairy Flora".
The album has a magnetic closure. I've placed a little heart under the flap, and covered it with dry "clear rock candy" glitter:
There're two eyelets on the flap with a tied ribbon & a plastic pacifier charm on it:
The mini's dimensions are as follows:
Length - 5".
Height- 3 1/4 "
Width - 1 3/4"
It has 6 pages. I decided not to embellish them at all (they are small and I wanted to leave enough space for the pictures). Each page has a tag inside. I thought it would be nice to take a picture of the baby each month during it's first year and add to the album, so 6 pages should work just right :)
Here's the side view of it:

The front and the back:
I want to enter this mini into these challenges:
1. Anything but the card @ Crazy Challenge
2. Tags @ Let's Create
3. Show us Texture @ Nut Crafters (I used dry glitter on the heart, on the die-cut corners and on the doily frame)
