MCT's 12 days of Christmas~Day 12

Welcome to day 12 of the My Creative Time 12 days of Christmas. WOW! Can you believe we are done!!!! Did you get inspired??? I know I did! I love all the ideas my design team sisters have come up with. If you haven't been following along please start here. 

For my project today, I made this cute little mini album using the 3 by 4 envelope die. I have been taking a photo each day and posting it on Instagram. My plan is to get the photos printed out and slide them in each pocket. Cute right? If you don't know what Instagram is click here. If you are interested in printing out your photos click here. I added some rolled flowers and leaves to my cover. Btw, my cover is made out of a recycled cereal box. I used the accordion blinding method to bind my book. Click here if you are interested. I added a day leading to Christmas Day.  I just love this little book!!!!







Here is a sample of how it would work. I actually used my Fuji Intax camera for this but had to cut it down to size. The Instagram photos are 2 by 3 and should fit.

Here is one of my Instagram pictures going into the alum..Super cute right??


Thank so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this awesome 12 Days of Christmas series! Make sure you visit the design team and leave a comment! Good luck! Big crafty hugs and happy holidays!

  7. Such a thoughtful, heart-warming album; a keepsake for sure! Beautiful idea (I'd be tempted to make one for every month...). I may scrap-lift this as a gift for my sister-in-law - with my niece and nephew becoming more adorable every day, she'd love to have such a sweet album to capture their cuteness moments. Hope you don't mind if I 'scrap-lift'.
    For all the projects you've shared over 12 Days blog hop - Thank you! For all the projects before - and those yet to come - THANK YOU! You are inspiring!!
