Hello. On my Facebook live, 15.02.24, I shared my Accordion Mini Album with you. I did say I would blog the measurements and photos, sorry it has taken me a while to do this. But here it is.

The base pages for the album are a Cal Summers design and I have added pockets and flaps, plus the decoration as I desired.

I just can’t get enough of the Bee Mine Suite and have used a pack of DSP (designer series paper) already. The bright and bold images are great fun and are perfect for so many occasions. The suite includes a stamp set and punch bundle, 12 x 12 DSP, ribbon, embellishments, and some super cute square pillow boxes.

The products I used to create my Accordion Mini Album are listed below and available to purchase from my online shop, with the exception on the ‘Place Photo Here’ stamp and a couple pieces of DSP which were from the Sunny Days DSP pack available during Sale-a-bration.
