Prima Tales of You and Me Mini Album

Prima Tales of You and Me Mini Album: It’s been several weeks since I posted this Paper Bag Mini Album on my Youtube, and I had completely forgotten to upload the pictures to my blog. So here it is!

If you’ve been a long time subscriber of mine, you know how much I love making paper bag mini albums. For this particular mini album, I decided to go with the Prima Tales of You and Me collection by Frank Garcia. I’ve been a long time fan and supporter of Frank Garcia. I just love his designs and method of teaching. Every paper collection that he comes up with is exceptionally beautiful! The designs are timeless, romantic and very shabby chic!

I like to make the covers to my paper bag mini albums out of chipboard. I find that making chipboard covers for these type of mini albums help preserve the papers within.

When making a paper bag mini album, try not to go for the cheap bags. These will easily tear and all your hard work will be destroyed. I like to get my paper bags from Michael’s party good section. They come in several colors and sizes and I have yet to have a complaint about these bags.

I used trims and laces from my stash; and much of the embellishments I made using dies from Spellbinders.

Since this mini album was a part of a wedding gift I used scraps from my Tales of You and Me project, and made a money card and envelope. I also used my dies from Spellbinders to embellish the card.
