August Team Blog Hop - mini albums

Welcome to our team's August Blog Hop! I am finally feeling like I am settling back in after our holiday, and so am getting back into the swing of things.

This month we are focusing on Mini Albums - CTMH has a whole range of different mini albums and options that we wanted to share with you all. If you came here from Julie's Papercraft Blog then you are in the right place. The blog is a big circle, so you just keep going from one to another. If you manage to get lost you can always check out the list on Alison's Scissors Paper Heart Blog.

This month I have decided to use CTMH's My Creations Kraft Mini Book (also available in black). It is such an awesome album to quickly and easily complete - it comes with 5 4x6 page protectors  and 5 page protectors which hold 2 3x4 photos. These are also perfectly sized to hold our Picture My Life cards. If you don't have PML cards, then you can easily make your own out of any paper you have - I have done that out of Wanderful.

So all you need to do is pop your photos and matching PML cards in, and the whole album is done! You can decorate the cover if you like, using matching Complements and/or Embellishments, and you have a great gift or memory album.

My children's teachers and friends have been asking to see photos of our recent holiday, so I have put together a quick little album for each of them to take and share with their classmates / day care teachers. The hardest part for me was trying to work out which photos to include, since we took so many on our holiday!

Please check back later in the week for photos - myself and the kids have been sick this week and everything has lagged behind, but I did want to share the ideas with you as soon as I could.

Also, just a quick reminder, August is the last month for the current Annual Inspirations and Seasonal Expressions 2 Ideas Books. A lot of the items in there are currently listed as Retiring and While Supplies Last to make way for our brand new Idea Book coming out on September 1. Many items have already sold out, so if there's anything you want, make sure you order it quickly! You can find the full list of Retiring Items here and While Supplies Last Items here.

Now - head on over to Wendy's Paper Ink Blink Blog and check out her awesome mini album!!!
