Art?

I have been doing less mixed media stuff lately and rediscovered 'scrapping' - in particular mini albums. I really need to use up some of the piles of patterned papers I have stashed! The internet is full of inspired scrappers and I have been looking at these people in particular http://injoystampin.com/http://justafewdesigns.blogspot.com/http://lakeavenuedesigns.blogspot.com/http://thescrapbeach.blogspot.com/http://blog.odonatacreations.com/http://scrappystickyinkymess.wordpress.com/http://followingthepapertrail.blogspot.com/http://paperphenomenon.blogspot.com/http://withagrin.blogspot.com/,  http://timeforscrappin.blogspot.com/ and http://tracystreasures-tracy.blogspot.com/.

So I have been making mini albums and learning as I go from the many tutorials these ladies have put out on Utube. The pages are unbound at present and there are no photographs or journaling added - if I get that far I will re-post them finished!

I have made 3 albums so far ...

The first one is about 5" x 7"




Flowers made from Paperartsy dies, Nestibilities and punches. 



Spaces for journaling and photos shown above.


 This little wallet page opens out as shown below with a tag and a little booklet.



and this is the back of the wallet with more space for a photo or journaling.



An acrylic page front and back.



More photo mats above and below is a pocket page made out of envelopes ...







Another pocket page above made from an envelope and the tags from each one below.



I still have to do inside the back cover!
