You know, by now, I love making mini books and I love 'recycling' packaging and this is another one of 'those' projects.
I made it quite a long time ago but it has never been shared and now is the time to share it. It's summer - and summer weddings seem to be all around.
The mini book was made in the wedding favour I was given on the day. The gorgeous little boxes were filled with mints on the table at each place setting.
It was too pretty not to be used as a mini wedding album and it was even more special because the tiny album was in the favour from the day.
The little album is simply cardstock folded into an accordian shape and I added pictures and quotes
It really is quite small as the picture with the rings shows
However, even in a book this size you can put an awful lot of memories of the day.
I kept the colours the same as those of ther wedding, ivory, cream, bronze, gold and coffee, and kept the embellishments to a bare minimum, using a gold pen and computer generated quotes.
Have fun creating!
