Catching the Waves Mini Album

Welcome back to another blogpost!

Sharing a fun Mini album made for Creative Embellishments. I made it with tons of products from the store and the beautiful paper collection from Ciao Bella “The Sound of Summer” This is a trip we did over Christmas last year. Finally getting to post and share. The memories are great and I love making albums. I’ve been doing a number of albums lately.

Here is the video of the walk through

This is a photo heavy post today.

I just love the titles that Nicolle has in the store, So many beautiful nautical themed, I used Catching the Waves from the Beach Word Set on the cover of the album. All of the titles in this album are heat embossed with a variety of embossing powders from various companies to match the paper collection. It adds some shimmer and shine to the chipboard.

Other than using a boat load (pun intended) of titles I also used some of the other nautical themed chipboard and boarders including the waves boarder chipboard.

I used a large number of elements from the paper pack to add to each of the pages. These were memories that will last a life time and I wanted to showcase all the fun moments we had as a family.

I have a special connection to the ocean, it is calming to me and I find a serenity being by it. If I could live by the sea, I would. For my kids to experience one of my favourite places on earth was amazing!

We had so many excursions on this trip. We even went deep sea fishing, and taking out catch to the local restaurant to cook it up for us.

It is amazing looking back at the album, how much my kiddos have grown since this trip.

This mini has pockets, flaps and folds that holds lots of memories. We found some great off the beaten path places. I added details with the nautical badges and some background with the Distress Grid Stencil.
