July 4th Acrylic Album with Doodlebug

Hello friends! Today, I'm sharing a patriotic July 4th mini album I made. I recently traveled to Southport NC to visit my family and after that fun weekend, I knew exactly what my next project would be. I grew up spending summers celebrating the 4th of July in this wonderfully small southern town, so ... I was inspired to create an all American mini.

July 4th Acrylic Album Instructions

 

For over 220 years, July 4th has been a big part of Southport's history. Their celebrations were first recorded in 1795! They always have a great parade, an arts and crafts festival, food trucks, live music, an antique car show, and an amazing fireworks display over the Cape Fear River. With the city's population being under 4,000 ... everyone knows everyone and it's such a fun event. I loved spending summer there as a kid and celebrating the 4th with my cousins.

 

 

If you have wonderful holiday memories to save, I hope you'll give this fun scrapbook a try. I designed it with the Doodlebug, Land That I Love Collection and one of my 6x6 inch clear acrylic albums. This scrapbook is packed with red, white, and blue cuteness!

 

This little flippies is very festive. It's perfect for photos of a fireworks display in the park or in your own neighborhood, or celebrating with sparklers! I love all the fun prints. So colorful!

 

 

It has space for photos of a BBQ, bike riding and playing outdoor games.

 

We can't forget the pocket. No Artsy Album would be complete without one. Inside I've added journaling cards to document the day or to use as photo mats.

 

 

A hot air balloon ride would be an amazing activity for the holiday weekend. It's different and a great way to celebrate the holiday with family and friends.

 

However you chose to celebrate this day, I hope you have fun!

Our Magical Vacation Disney Themed Album

Hey folks, great news! For all the Disney fans out there, I've just added the Instructions for my retired "Our Magical Vacation" Album to the shop! Perfect for anyone who's taking a summer trip to the most magical place on Earth, or ... has vacation photos hiding in your phone from years past. I got you. Help is here!

My instructions for this Disney themed album are simple, step-by-step and include full color photos. Plus, I share all the product links so you know what I used and where to get them. Easy peasy!

 

This album is the great for saving your theme park pictures of the castle, thrilling rides and your favorite characters. Who's your favorite? Mine was always Minnie but the princesses come in a close second. With all the character signings, you're sure to get autographs. They will look awesome saved in this album!

 

Don't forget to get the infamous balloon holding photo on Main Street. So colorful! I wonder how many times a day the guy selling them gets asked to let them do that? Sorry balloon man, but it's a must on the Disney photo op list, lol!

You should also buy some mouse ears - the hat and the ice cream! Both are a tradition. Especially with the ice cream. Yes, that's my story ... and I'm sticking to it. Besides, the cute, messy, chocolate covered kids face is so worth the photo!

 

This amazing album is 6"x8", has 14 pages (7 double-sided) and includes fold-out pages, flippies, and pockets. I used products from Scrapbook Customs to create this colorful scrapbook and I've included the product links below.

2 New OOAK Travel Scrapbook Albums

Hi friends and happy Tuesday! Today, I have 2 new one-of-a-kind albums to share with you. They're preassembled and were just added to the shop this morning. Often, I have bits and pieces of collections in my stash but I don't have enough to make a new kit, so ... I use those materials to make special little OOAK albums. Today, they're all about travel.

I made these with the Echo Park, Let's Go Anywhere Collection and they are perfect for your vacation photos. When you need a get-a-way and have the urge to travel ... it's time to pull out a map and hit the road! So many possibilities! So, pack your bags, load up the trunk and pile everyone in the car. The world is your oyster!

The first scrapbook is called "The Best Trip" and I'm loving the red color, plaids, gingham prints and wood tones. The wood and road trip theme makes me think of wood paneled station wagons. Yep, been there done that, lol!

I think I used every single embellishment that came in this collection somewhere throughout these two albums, so there are a ton! That includes chipboard accents, 12x12 stickers, the sticker booklet, the puffy stickers, etc! I love them - especially the ones with the wood print. So cute.

This page has a great saying ... Travel. Explore. Document. Repeat. Yes, let's do that.  2020 was rough. Let's explore and definitely document our fun adventures in one of my scrapbooks.

 

Now for my second OOAK album - "Let's Go Adventuring"...

 

 

This one uses the same collection and album but it's designed differently. Doesn't the little camper on the cover look like a mini Airstream trailer? Oh, I love those!

 

 

Both scrapbooks are 6"x8" and are full of patterned papers with cameras, luggage, bicycles, arrows, campers, mountains, and airplanes. Yep, these pages will cover just about any kind of travel plans.

 

 

 

Each album has 16 pages (8 double sided) and include pockets and plastic photo sleeves. There are even some fold-out cards to hold extra photos!
 

I hope you can find some time to enjoy the scenic route this summer. Spending time with family and friends will be the memories you'll cherish 20-30 years from now. PLUS, you'll have my album full of photos to remind you of the fun details!! 😉
