Clear Scraps Project Post

Hello! It's Jennifer and I'm sharing a mini book I created using the fun Mixable Edgy Album!  The Mixable Albums are one of my favorite minis to use as I love the cascading pages of acrylic and chipboard. This album measures 5.5 x 8.0 so its big enough to fit your favorite photos!  For my album, I used both Instagram and 4×6 sized pictures.

The front page is acrylic and "postage stamp" shaped. I layered patterned paper and a cute chipboard frame and coordinating embellishments.  

On the inside of the front cover, I used the space for journaling about our trip.  Also, will note I left the acrylic "bare" but you can easily add color with a little alcohol ink!

The next page is chipboard and has a cute scallop edge. I added a layer of white acrylic paint to the edges prior to embellishing. 

Next up is another acrylic page…and again with a postage stamp edge!  

Another way to add to your albums is to use envelopes or tags to insert as a page! I embellished a decorative envelope that I've had in my stash forever! You can add a small photo, journaling, or use up some of your stash!  

For my next page I again used acrylic paint to cover the edges.  It's an easy way to help your pages stand out!

Here is the last page of my book…its a large, rectangular acrylic piece that easily fits a 4×6 photo!  

Thanks for reading! I hope this inspires you to create a fun mini album using one of the Mixable Albums or other great Clear Scrap Albums!

Have a wonderful day!
