Farm Tiered Scallop Mini Album

Hello scrappers! Today I'm sharing my latest Lori Whitlock Design Team Project. It's a cute farm themed mini album that has layered waterfall pages with pretty scallop edges. It's fun shape and smaller size makes this a perfect keepsake for some of your favorite moments, or ... an udderly, farm-tastic gift idea! 😉

Farm Scrapbook Mini Album with tiered scallop pages

To create this, I used a Doodlebug Design paper collection and one of Lori's amazing cutting files called Tiered Album Scallop. She's created 10 of these tiered albums with different edges and they're all so much fun. To see my other projects that use them and the product links for today's project, see below.

Farm Scrapbook Mini Album with tiered scalloped pages

To start, I cut the 5 scalloped pages out of white cardstock then covered them in colorful prints that I cut slightly smaller than the base. To do this, I created an inset for the pattern paper. Layering the papers like this makes the pages super sturdy.

Farm Scrapbook Mini Album with flowers, a barn, and cute farm animals

On the front cover, I used a 6x6 print that's filled with colorful little flowers and added a die cut for the title.

Just inside ... an adorable cow and a word bubble with scallop shapes framing them overhead.

On the next page, I added a flippie with a cute barn scene. These folding cards double your photo space so they're great for mini albums. And check out those fun layered pages! Love.

Another space saver is a pocket. I fussy cut this one from a patterned paper but you could make a simple square one out of cardstock. These are perfect for journaling cards, extra photos, or small memorabilia.

I coordinated each of the double page layouts so that the backside of the smaller page matches the front side of the larger one. Notice the cow print above next to the little individual cows. They're so cute together!

Farm Scrapbook Mini Album page with scallop edge, cute chickens, a sun, and flowers

Throughout the album, I mixed and matched 6x6 inch and 12x12 inch papers. I think the variety of sizes makes the pages more interesting.

This egg-cellant little scrapbook would be perfect for pictures of a fun day at the farm, a farmer's market, a themed birthday party, a school field trip, a petting zoo, or for anyone who just loves a farm theme!

You could also add photos of a new baby, a nursery, or a themed baby shower. Wouldn't this make a super cute brag book for mom, grandma, an aunt, or a god-parent?

This album can be made with ANY theme or paper collection and would make such a unique gift idea.

I love this little 1/2 page with the bright rainbow tag, black and white twine, and the cute Hocus Pocus folding card. That witch is sooo cute!

I've added lots of journaling spots to this scrapbook. If you're not sure what to write on them, simply add the dates, names, event, or locations. 

But if you love to tell the stories behind the photos, you could talk about ... 

  • why you chose that pumpkin from the pumpkin patch
  • what your favorite ride is at the carnival
  • what you did at the Halloween party
  • how scary the haunted house was
  • what your favorite Halloween treat is
  • what you love most about your costume
  • your family's Halloween traditions
  • or ... what your favorite Halloween memory is

The little cupcake sticker above with the tiny cat head on top made me laugh! Oh ... sometimes it's the little things in life, ya know? 😂 This new Doodlebug collection is just plain fun, colorful, and happy. It's sure to put a smile on your face, too!
