Lake Life Tag Shaped Mini Album - August Blog Hop with Lori Whitlock

Hello friends! Today is Lori Whitlock's August Blog Hop and my blog is the first stop on the hop. But be sure to visit Lori's site too because she has a sale and more great products for you!

For my project today, I made a tag shaped mini album titled Lake Life. It's super cute and perfect for pictures of a weekend at the water, a cabin rental, fishing, kids at summer camp, canoeing, hiking, boating, swimming, and fun with family and friends.

I used one of Lori's fabulous cutting files called Hidden Binding Mini Album Tag and the Bella Blvd, Lake Life Collection (links below). I love these hidden binding album files. Lori has so many wonderful ones. I've made a flower and the telephone shaped album and they were so much fun!

To start, I cut the album's base (10 tag shaped scrapbook pages / 5 double-sided) out of white cardstock. Then I added pattern paper, photo mats, and embellishments to the front and back of each one. They are quite layered so the pages are extra thick and sturdy. 

The hidden binding is designed to allow enough space in between the pages so you can add lots of pattern papers, pop-dots, photos, and embellishments. It makes the album nice and chunky.

Then, I added a colorful ribbon to the top of each page and ... my cute little tag shaped scrapbook was done!

This would make such a wonderful gift idea for someone that owns a cabin at the lake or enjoys vacationing at one. Or ... what about a cute welcome home gift for a child just getting back from summer camp?

I hope you like my Lake Life version of this fun tag shaped mini album. If you haven't tried one of Lori's hidden binding album files, I highly recommend. She has so many great shapes!

And, look how cute it looks displayed on my clear Acrylic Display Stand. It gives this mini a bit more presence! These are available in my shop and they're perfect for showing off your mini albums and cards. 

Here is what today's file looks like ...
