Today there's a brief post about mini albums.
Here's the one I created - I collected all of my fav holiday recipes and made an album.

As you can see there's an elastic cord that wraps around the cover of the album.
Instructions: I covered the back cover with patterned paper; punched 2 holes & attached the eyelets; threaded some elastic through the holes leaving the ends on the inside of the back cover; then covered the inside of the back cover with patterned paper making sure to have the ends lay as flat as possible. Voila!

I used some Imginisce foam squares to add some dimension to the die-cut along with a few red Glam Rocks adhered to the die-cut with my i-rock tool.

I kept each page in the mini album the same : one side a photo of the recipe and the other side the actual receipe. Simple but I like the look.
