Hi everyone!!
If you know me... you know that Mini Albums are NOT my fave thing to make... I make them.. but they are NOT on my top list of "YAY!! It's time to create!" list... lol :)
With that being said ... BEFORE Brookie's 6th birthday party we had earlier this month..... I knew we'd have a TON of photos from her party... and I wanted to make sure I could scrap them right away ...
sooooooo....
I PRE-MADE a mini album before her party, so I could just add the photos in quickly afterwards!!!
GO ME!!!! *wink*
I couldn't believe I WILLINGLY made a mini album... and better yet... had it photo-less at first until the party photos were printed out! lol! :)
Here it is --
I made this using Simple Stories that I got from BlueMoonScrapbooking.com and used Helmar glue to adhere everything down :)
Thanks so much for stopping by! I appreciate it! :)

I agree with you about mini-albums!! i like them but its too time consuming to make them!! I do love how they turn out and I love including all the photos at once!! love how yours turned out you did an amazing job!!
LOVE your mini album, Julie!! And belated but VERY BEST HAPPY BIRTHDAY WISHES to Brookie!!! I see the doll she got (Belle) and her Barbie cake, and am tickled to see she loves her dolls just as much as I STILL do! (0; Love the photos of the crafty activities, making owls and pumpkins.. Looks like so much FUN! Wishing you and all your family a wonderful weekend! ((hugs)) ~tina
i hate creating mini albums too! in fact i dont think i ever actually completed one! my ADD kicks in and i get bored with it. it's hard to tell you don't like to do it though...yours came out so good! its very colorful and fun, perfect for the subject!
Awesome mini Julie!! What a great way to document the photos for Brookie's birthday!! And I LOVE that corrugated cardboard on the front cover!! :)
Julie...this is FABULOUS! I love the mini you made. Isn't it fun to have it all ready, just add the photos? Brookie must just love this!!! You rock at mini's..you should make more!!!
What a wonderful keepsake album for Brookie!
Your have TOTALLY rocked this mini album... you have done a FANTASTIC job!!! x
i LOVE this girl, and her birthday looked a LOT of fun. i love to pre-make albums too but i LOVE making them so i am lucky LOL
See, I'm the opposite! Mini's are my favorite to make because I can scrap an entire event start to finish. :) Yours turned out adorable!!!
What a precious keepsake!!! She is going to love looking at it in a few years! Yeah you!!! :D
super cute!!! mini's aren't my thing either:0:)
Happy Birthday to Brookie! That cake was awesome and I LOVE the pocket that you added for cards. Your mini album turned out wonderfully!
This is sooooo wonderful! Such a fab keepsake!
it turned out ADORABLE!!!
what a GREAT idea for a mini--SO fun!
I'm amazed, Julie, that you had time to make this marvelous creation in addition to planning a fun party for your DD! Go, you! The doll cake is soooooo cool. My mom-mom used to make a similar thing for me when I was very small, but it had a different kind of plastic doll at the top.
You can't convince me that you don't like to make minis You did an amazing job on this one. Way to go to have it ready before the party. Hugs Linda
I just LOVE your mini book Julie!
what a treasure indeed!!
TFS~
UMMMMM...Julie...I think you need to make MORE mini albums because this is absolutely ADORABLE!!! I am in love with it and I love that you added a little extra spot for the cards....by the way I always wanted a cake like that when I was little:)
I love this album! You did an amazing job! I've only made a couple and I'm not very good at them. When I decide to give it a try again, I'll have to refer back to this post! Yours is incredible!
what great idea! good for you...and pre made..you have it all figured out girl!!
happy weekend!
AWESOME!!!
you should make these more often girlfriend! *ducking for cover* lol
you ROCKED it and Miss B is sure to treasure it :)
p/s i always wanted a doll cake but never got one :(
I a m RIDICULOUSLY impressed about your pre-planning!! I am such a terrible planner. :) But, I digress. This mini is so so so adorable, and I love all of the little touches, especially the card pocket. What wonderful work...as always!! <3
What a fun and colourful album! Love how you did this BEFORE the party! :)
What a beautiful album, love that pocket for the cards!!!

What a fabulous keepsake for Brooke...now you have to do this every year!!!! Love it!
Wow!!!!!! This is soooooooooooo sweet! Love every page. Looks fab!
"Go you" is absolutely right, Julie!!!!! You are so creative and very clever to make this in advance because you knew you would have a LOT of photos to scrap! and they are all so wonderful and full of the BEST memories from Brookie's birthday! TFS this with us! You made my day!
What a fantastic album, love the colours, it's fab and fun!
Hey there Julie...miss coming by, too - internet is hideously expensive on the ship, so doing the bare minimum...in Turkey atm, just a quick stop by to let you know I'm still alive. Fat, from eating sooo much food on board, but alive!!!! LOVE this mini....I was v pleased I've 'done' my travel journal - am diarising every night then will just add piccies when I get home...makes it easy-peasy, as I can see here:):):) Take care......
Well it looked like she has a blast at her Birthday. Your album looks awesome. I just love every page.
Hugs~
Very pretty album!!
Love how you decorated each page!
Very adorable and lots of fun pictures!!
Love it!!!!
What a FABULOUS little album full of wonderful memories!!! (=
I've been waiting for you to post this, and it was well worth the wait! Amazing album!! You'd never know by looking at it that you were not a mini album kind of girl :) Great job!
You always have the coolest work here!
LOVE it!
Awesome mini!! Great idea to make ahead of time! I pre-made one for our GA trip and printed the photos daily so I could leave the book behind with the Grandmas, it was a lot of work! Carri~Abusybee
I would never know they are not your favorite! You made a fabulous one. How do you get so much done? You are amazing Miss Julie!
LOVE this!!! I adore mini albums, just never seem to have the time to do one from start to finish....I give anyone who can create these things AND layouts without the photos props cuz it's something I just cannot do!
Super cute birthday mini! You would never know they aren't your fave!!!
just sooo fabulous album love it !!!
Fantastic mini Julie! Well done!! So impressed!!!
Adorable! Love that you also made a pocket for all her cards too!
Love it!!! They might not be your fave things to but you're so good at it lol
I absolutely LOVE how this turned out!
Might not be your favorite thing but you rock at them!! This album is something that Brookie will treasure forever!
Wow, such a fabulous mini!! The only mini I've worked on was helping my niece create one for her birthday last year. This year I did a 12 x 12 album with her. lol!! Love how many photos and how you captured the day here!! ~ Blessings, Tracey
