I also extended flower die cuts off the top edge of some of the pages. This album is so cute and chunky and I love that the flowers look like they're popping out of the top!

Just inside the front flap, I added a tag to the backside of the title piece. You can leave this as is, or ... add your family's name, the holiday / season, the date / year, the event, or the location.

Happy Fall Scrapbook Album with Bella Blvd

Hello friends! It's time for my latest Bella Blvd Design Team Project and today, I have a cute autumn inspired mini album to share with you. It's titled Happy Fall and I'll be adding the instructions for it to my shop soon. I'm still catching up after attending the She Loves Color Event so keep an eye out for them. Until then, let's take a look inside this fun new project! 🍂🌞🩵

Happy Fall Acrylic Scrapbook Album with circle cutouts, leaves, pumpkins, flowers, and trees

I designed this with the fabulous Bella Blvd, One Fall Day Collection (links below). It has pumpkins, leaves, trees, butterflies, colorful flowers, and fall foods like turkey, pie, vegetables, fruits, apple cider and more.

I also 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!

On the first page, I chose the aqua Fall Is A Flutter pattern for the background and added some circles (1", 1.25", 1.5", 2", & 3") punched from other fun papers in the collection. Then, I embellished with puffy stickers, Ephemera Icons, Ephemera Words, and two Bella-pops called Fall Favorite and Fall is Here (links below).

The album has 16 scrapbook pages that include 2 fold-out pages, 2 pockets, 4 flippies, and space for 32 photos. Above is one of the fold-out pages. I 🧡 this leaf print. It's called Leaf Pile and the colors are beautiful! I added the matching Thankful card on top and made it into a flippie with space inside for 2 photos. Open the fold-out page and there are whimsical trees, leaves, and space for more memories.

This would also make a super sweet gift idea. The unique acrylic album, the fun paper collection, and the fact that you handmade this makes it such a special present. Give it to a hostess for Thanksgiving, a friend for a birthday, a family member who's traveling this fall, or anyone ... for any time!

On this page, I created a flippie out of the Fall Festival card. It has space inside for 1 photo and underneath, there's a larger photo mat, some puffy pumpkin stickers, and some die cuts. 

Happy Fall Scrapbook Album Pocket Page with journaling cards, colorful flowers, pumpkins, and leaves

Every mini needs a great pocket page with journaling cards. Here, I created a pretty floral tag shaped card and embellished with another flower sticker from the Fall is Here Bella-pops. 

You can also save memorabilia here like ... greeting cards, a brochure from a fun activity, hotel room keys, an itinerary from your travels, postcards, a small map, tickets from a concert or fall event, an invitation, a gift tag, or a program from a school or church event.
