Hi guys! It's time for my next Doodlebug Design Team Project and today, I have a Trick or Treat wallet shaped mini album that's perfect for holiday photos. It's super interactive with lots of flaps, fold-outs, and pockets inside, AND ... it would make THE cutest little handmade gift for someone. Just look at those fun papers and colors! I love this project and think it's a really creative way to save your favorite Halloween photos. π
I created this with the fantastic Hey Pumpkin Collection and a Lori Whitlock cutting file called Wallet Mini Album (links below). I cut the base out of black cardstock and covered it in 12x12 and 6x6 pattern papers. I love how the bright citrus colors look against the dark background ... especially the candy print on the front!
For the front flap, I punched a 2" scallop circle out of black paper, added the Trick or Treat die cut piece from the Chit Chat, and glued a tiny flat magnet underneath.
Inside, there's a gorgeous plaid paper and a cute "spooky" die cut. On the bottom, I used a more die cuts from the Odds & Ends, then added a second magnet behind them so the album stays together when closed.
Ok, here's where the mini album gets really interesting! In the center, there are 2 tri-folds that open to the left and the right. I added the 3x4 inch card on the left side and I love the little witch with her cute glasses!
Here's what the tri-fold looks like opened. I added more fun papers and die cuts to each little section. Wouldn't this be great filled with your October memories?
Did you notice the puffy icon star stickers? A little shine and a bit of dimension ... perfect for adding more interest to the pages.
For the tri-fold on the right, I matched the patterned papers but changed up the die cuts. I added a stack of books with a candle on top to this one. If you look closely, you'll see I added a mini jewel to theπ₯.
Look how cute all of these colors and patterns look together! Behind the tri-folds is a 4x6 inch photo mat for your favorite picture of the pumpkin patch, a Halloween party, fabulous costumes, or trick-or-treating.
At the bottom, there are 2 little pockets with journaling cards / photo mats inside. You could add small pictures, tickets to a holiday event, or journal about the fun! On the front of the pockets, I added 2 puffy icon bat stickers. I love their sweet little smiles!
My Trick or Treat wallet shaped mini album looks so festive sitting out using my clear Acrylic Display Stand. I love these and have them all over my house showing off all my holiday projects. Love them!
Well, I hope this fun project and all the Hey Pumpkin cuteness made YOU smile today! It's cute characters, spooktacular patterns, and bright cheerful colors are perfect for any holiday project. Have a great day and happy scrappin'! π
I don’t have the ability to get that cut file for the album but I did order The Hey Pumpkin collection yesterday (so excited) is there a way you can share the dimensions of the album so I can attempt to make this? Thanks
ReplyDeleteMorning, so sorry for the delay! The overall dimensions are approx. 4x6 inches. π
