Reflections Mini Album with Lori Whitlock Designs

It's Monday friends and that means I'm sharing a new project over at Lori Whitlock's site today!  

I'm always excited when a new paper collection arrives at my doorstep and this week it was like Christmas in August! Echo Park's newest paper line, Reflections (designed by Lori, so of course it's fabulous!) was my inspiration for this Family Memories mini album. 

I’m a huge fan of mini albums. They are my favorite project and I love the fact that Lori has so many wonderful options in her shop. So for today’s project I used her tiered album bracket and for the title, I used Lori’s Family Memories phrase. And this new paper collection ... perfect for older family photos or more recent ones. I just love the colors!
I wanted to add a fold-up card piece to one of the album pages, so I cut out Lori’s hinges to give the card more interest. Depending on the size you make your hinges you can add brads to the holes or use a little bling like I did. 🙂

To add to the vintage feel of my album, I added a fancy frame. I just love how the frame looks with some gems added for sparkle!

  1. Very pretty mini. I have the files. May do one for my son-n-laws 39th bd that just passed this weekend. Good way for him to keep the memories alive. TFS
