Pootler Video Hop: Gingerbread & Peppermint Mini Album

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it. Today is very exciting because I ma taking part in a team video hop. Normally we do a blog hop when a new catalogue is launched but this time we have decided to do a video hop. It's been years since we have done this. So we are showcasing the new Stampin' Up! August - December Mini Catalogue so there is sure to be plenty of projects to inspire you. My project is a mini album. I have made lots of mini albums in the past but this one is a bit different. It is a flip mini album (that's what I have decided to call it! ) that will hold full size 6"x4" photos. I am using the lovely Gingerbread and Peppermint Memories and More Cards and the matching DSP. There are quite a few measurements but it is really quite straight forward once you start putting it together .
