Pineapple Shaped Welcome Mini Album

Hello friends! Did you know June 27th is International Pineapple Day? Me neither, but ... it did give me a little inspiration for a new project (and you know I'll use ANY excuse to make a cute shaped mini album)! This day honors the sweet tropical fruit that is also a worldwide symbol of hospitality. So with that in mind, take a look at my little pineapple shaped scrapbook titled Welcome.

To create the album's fun shape, I used a Doodlebug Design cutting file called Pineapple and made an accordion style scrapbook. Then, I decorated the pages with the Fun in the Sun Collection and some Bella Blvd Besties prints (links below). 

 

On the front cover, I added the cute yellow Besties print called Hearts and Ombre in the color bell pepper. I embellished with lots of flowers from the Odds & Ends and Icon Stickers, then added the "Welcome" title. It's a Chit Chat die cut from Doodlebug's Hello Collection. 

Inside, I added colorful pattern papers to each of the white cardstock pages then created the cute shaped photo mats. For those, I used a 3" scalloped circle punch and a 2.5" circle punch from Marvy Uchida and a mix of fun 6x6 and 12x12 papers.  

Now for some ideas on how you can use this album. First, I think it would make a great gift idea for new neighbors. What a unique way to welcome them to the neighborhood! They could add pictures of the move and of their new home.

You could use this in a vacation rental to welcome your guests. Fill it with local information they might find useful like great shopping, restaurants, and fun activities. Or use it as a guest book where they can leave positive comments or signatures for others to read.

Another idea ... add photos from a tropical themed birthday party, anniversary, bridal or baby shower, or ... a Hawaiian luau! Oooo, I love that idea!

Swap out the "Welcome" title for something else and you could save your summer photos here. It would be great for a weekend getaway, pictures by the pool, or beach side with a Pina Colada!

Tropical or Hawaiian themed nursery? Adorable! Fill this little album with sweet baby pictures. But, maybe leave out the cocktail die cuts, lol!

What a fun summer project! I hope this mini album inspires you to create something unique with a pineapple theme.🍍Below are the links for the products used, but ... I think any tropical, sunny, summertime collection would work great. Thanks for stopping by the blog and have a wonderful day! 😊
