Matchbook Mini Album- KO style

Okay....I absolutely love, love,love Kathy Orta designs.  Check her out......But...I have not had enough time to do anything crafty for "me" lately....So...I set aside enough time for me and challenged myself to complete at least one mini.....I was inspired to make this mini by so many youtubers out there....They made it look like it was super easy and so much fun....Because I had completetd a couple of her minis before I decided to give this one a try.....and yeah....just as I thought it was fun. fun, fun and super easy.....

So...after making this one...I made a few more.....I have not embellished any of them yet but have made the albums  using kraft paper AND  white and black cardstock.......I used the same instructions for all of them ...but each looks different......Here is a pic of the first one I completed....I'll post a pic of the completed albums once I put all of the embellies on it.......I used Kraft paper, "Donna Salizar's- Antiquities" paperstack  and the McGill's Tab punch.....The album measures 8.5x6.5.......TFL everyone....

Hey Ms. Dee, girl you rock. I don't know how you find the time for all that you do. I love this mini and the papers. Now that I know how it is going to look, I can't wait to use it. I may have to buy another pad. Ok, where did you get that tab punch, I want it... Love the way this turned out. So glad to hear that it is really easy.

Hey Girlie.......Yeah....The matchbook minis are super easy to make.......I made three so far...I think it will take more time to deco it than it did to make it....(I'll see..........I purchased the Tab punch some time ago ....so I forget which store ....But it's a McGill...so check J's or M's....
