I was able to participate in Craftaholics Anonymous' Christmas in July Gift Exchange this year. My 'giftee' told me that she's expecting a baby girl in August, so I decided to make her a Mini Envelope Accordion Album and some cards. I had so much fun putting these together!! Here's how they turned out:
I found the idea for the album HERE from Creations by Patti.
Here's a view from the side.
And the pages...
I couldn't give the album without making a cute box to put it in!! Instructions for this can be found HERE.
Of course, the card box and cards had to match the album!! I used THIS tutorial from Big Ideas From a Little Girl , only I didn't use the ribbon around the top.
Here's the inside of the box, with the cards and envelopes peeking through.
And the cards. I made 5 with "Thanks" and 5 without.
I hope my 'giftee' will get some use out of these!!
