Tinsel Time House Shaped Scrapbook Mini Album

Hey friends! It's time for my next Doodlebug Design Team Project and this week I have a super fun Christmas project for you that uses the adorable Tinsel Time Collection and Doodlebug's Home Sweet Home Chipboard Album. This cute little scrapbook would be perfect for your holiday photos, and ... a great Christmas gift idea!

The 5x7 inch chipboard album is a blank canvas and features two covers, a roof top piece, four dividers, and four pages - giving you 16 pages in total. I could not wait to fill this mini out with Tinsel Time cuteness!

To start, I covered the front of the house in the pretty 12x12 plaid paper. I wanted to add shingles to my roof, so ... I used the Home Sweet Home Doodle-cuts (metal dies) to cut them out of the pistachio snowflake print and 1 row out of the red polka dot. I lightly inked the edges of the scallops with a little Pinkfresh mint ink to give the scallops a bit of dimension.

This little house needed some holiday sparkle so I added Christmas lights just under the roof line. I used clear mini jewels and the star shaped enamel sprinkles. Since Santa is sure to visit this cute home, I added the sleigh and reindeer mini icon stickers 🎵 "up on the rooftop"🎵. They're the perfect size!

I also used the doodle-cuts dies to cut out the window panes, front door, planter boxes, and plants inside them. I used a mix of 12x12 and 6x6 pattern papers and I love the extra dimension they add. Then, I embellished the front with more mini icon stickers. This was SO fun!

Inside, I covered each page with pretty 12x12 pattern paper. Above, I used 2 tags, a journaling card, and some die cuts from the Odds & Ends / Bits & Pieces. Then, I added 2 Christmas Candy sprinkles and lots of enamel glitter dots.

I love adding more photo space to my mini album pages, so here I used a 4x4 card to create a little flippie with room inside for 2 pictures. On the front, more gorgeous sprinkles.

This reindeer is so cute! I think he's my favorite die cut with his fancy antlers, red bow, and little pink bell.

Wait ... maybe the fireplace is my favorite! Lol! The mantel has such cute details with the tiny houses, trees, and stockings. And yep, that itty bitty garland needed some glitter dots too. Everything needs glitter dots!!!

Here's a great page for a picture with Santa. Tuck it behind these fun die cuts from the Odds & Ends (Santa), Bits & Pieces (string lights), and Chit Chat (Santa word). And don't forget the enamel light shape sprinkles!

Above, I cut a little free form shape to create snow under the Odds & Ends die cut. Since Santa's sleigh is so magical, I added some Holiday Magic shape sprinkles and enamel dots around it.

Pockets are another great way to add space to your mini album. I made this one with a cute 3x4 card and tucked in a journaling card and 2 die cut pieces from the Odds & Ends. The die cuts are white on the back so you can journal on them as well.

Hold on, there's more! I also made the front of the pocket a flippie so you can add 2 photos inside.

Can you tell I had fun creating this cute mini album? I absolutely love the Tinsel Time Collection and the Home Sweet Home Chipboard Album. I hope this project inspires you to create one too! Happy scrapping and merry Christmas everyone!
