Good morning Quick Quotes friends! Jen here today to host the blog for you.
Hi mini album fans! I have a mini album to share with you today. I created the album using 3 paper bags, paper, ribbons and some embellishments. It’s a lot easier than it looks!
I started by folding 3 paper bags in half and alternating the direction of the bag openings:
I then covered the front and back of the album with paper from the Beautiful Life Collection . I created the binding with a strip of cardstock that I wrapped around the front and back. I then used my Crop-a-dile to punch holes through the binding of all three bags. To secure the pages, I threaded Ribbon through the holes. The front cover of the album was created using a vellum quote from the Family Quote Bundle.

I added several vellum sentiments from an Itty Bitty Vellum Box set:
The openings of the 3 bags became pockets that hold inserts. The inserts can be used for more photos or journaling:
Quick Quotes Items Used:
Beautiful Life Collection
Itty Bitty Vellum Box
Midnight Confessions PowderPuff Chalking Ink
Family Quote Bundle
Ribbon
Brads
Other Items Used:
Bling – Queen & Company
Acrylic Flowers – Queen & Company
Border Punch – Stampin Up
Tab Punch – Stampin Up
Thanks for stopping by!

I then started decorating the inside pages:
I added several vellum sentiments from an Itty Bitty Vellum Box set:
I used brads to attach several of the vellum quotes and I inked all of my papers with Midnight Confessions PowderPuff Chalking Ink:

This is a fabulous mini album!! Thank you for showing us how you made it!

I like the colors of paperline
Not a fan of the paper bag albums
They just don't hold up as well
I guess I'm a page protector type gal
The pages are very clean and simple which is nice!
