Explore Acrylic Mini Album with Bella Blvd

Hey guys! Who's ready for a fun new project? Today, I'm sharing a cute little scrapbook that's perfect for photos of summer, fall, and outdoor adventures. It's titled Explore and it's my latest Bella Blvd Design Team Project. I'll be adding the instructions for it to my shop soon but until then, here's a look inside ...

Explore Acrylic Scrapbook Album with circle cut-outs and an outdoor theme

I created this with Bella's awesome new Adventure Awaits Collection. I used it in my larger 6x8 Explore Adventure Scrapbook Album as well and love the happy colors, cute animals, and fun outdoorsy prints.

Acrylic Peek-A-Boo Circles DIY Scrapbook Mini Album with circle cut-outs and white card stock pages

Since I wanted this project to be smaller, I used my 6x6 inch Acrylic Peek-A-Boo Circles Album in white. The front cover has circle cut-outs that allow pretty papers and cute embellishments to "peek" through.

At the bottom of the cover there's space for a title, so I added the "explore" word from the Explore Together Puffy Stickers (link below). This added visual interest to the front with a little shine and a bit of dimension.

Here is the first page that shows through the cover's cut-outs. I cut circles out of pattern papers using 1/2", 1",1.25", 1.5", 2", and 3" punches, then chose a few embellishments. My favorite is the Darling Deer Bella-pops. She really IS darling! I lined up and adhered everything just behind the cut-outs, then added the saying from the Ephemera Words and the green scalloped puffy sticker.

Inside, there are 12 white scrapbook pages. I covered them in pattern papers, then created some fun interactive elements. Above, is a fold-out page made with the Borders polka dot paper and the Wander Clouds print. I added a flippie on the front of the flap using a 3x4 card from the Daily Details. Then to embellish, I chose a flower die cut from the Ephemera Icons and a few epoxy Moonlit stickers.

Above, I used the Trail Notes paper in the background, added a large photo mat in the center, and created a flippie using another 3x4 card. Then, I decorated the page with the rainbow striped tab and the "explore" pennant from the Ephemera Words (links below)

On this layout, I made a big flippie with a 4x6 card from the Daily Details. What a cute camping scene! It's a perfect spot for 2 photos of the lake, an RV, hiking, beautiful waterfalls, mountain views, fishing, rafting down stream, biking, ATVs, and ... "campfires, stories, and starry skies"!

I love a good pocket page and this one doesn't disappoint. It's a great space for extra photos, notes, or small memorabilia. Perfect for tickets to a park or a fun activity, postcards, a small map, or a brochure. 

To make it, I chose the Forest Friends polka dot for the background, the Wander clouds stripe on the front of the pocket, and the scalloped Doohickey border sticker along the edge to visually separate them. I tucked a few journaling cards / photo mats inside and added a cute tag with jute twine. To embellish, I chose the flowers from the Ephemera Icons and the "Explore" from the Ephemera Words (links below).

If you or someone you know loves visiting parks, the lake, a cabin, the mountains, and all kinds of nature inspired activities ... then this mini album is a great project for you. It holds about 20 photos and makes a perfect keepsake for vacation photos or random outdoor memories. And it's an amazing gift idea!
