used some wonderful flower files from Lori which are rolled and so easy to put together.  I used 3D Rolled Spiral flower which you can find here in Lori's Store and here in the Silhouette Store; 3D Peony and Rose Bundle Rolled  Flower which you can find here in Lori's Store and here in the Silhouette Store; 3D Rolled Spiral Flower which you can find here in Lori's Store and here in the Silhouette Store; 1 Piece Leaf which you can find  here in the Silhouette Store and Valentine Words which you can find here in the Silhouette Store.

Baby Mini Album


Hi Everyone:
Anita here with a fun tutorial to make this mini baby album.  My brother's girlfriend just became a grandmother of a beautiful baby boy and I made this album for her to fill and have to share with her friends.
This is a photo of the cut file.  It is called Baby Layered Mini Album and you can find it in Lori's store and in the Silhouette Store.  I mixed and matched some wonderful collections of Lori's from Echo Park to make my album including A Perfect Winter, A Perfect Autumn, A Perfect Christmas and I Love Family.  I bought 1.5 inch colored rings from Amazon for the album.
I decided that I wanted to make each page be the same print/color so I used the replicate function on my Silhouette to mirror the left tabbed page to the right so that I could glue them together to create a heavier page.  I used matching papers.
Next, I used the rectangle tool on the left side bar to create a white piece to put the photo on.  I like to put the item I am trying to match the size on my mat.
Here is the sized rectangle on my mat.
Here is a photo that shows the other rectangles that I created for the pages of my album.  I then cut two of each for the album.
I used Lori's font called Wide Marker at the 56.0 font size and moved them on to the bottle to see how it would look.
Here are the pieces for my album.
There you have it.  This worked up very quickly and it so cute.  Can't wait to send it off to it's recipient.
Hugs,
