Yes, another challenge, I'm on a roll :)
On National Scrapbook Day Club Scrap issued a challenge to everyone - Passport to Fun Mini Album Challenge.... Complete our own version of the Passport to Fun mini envelope album that was featured at their 2012 retreat. Well, I've never been to one of their retreats but I have made an envelope album before and they are lots of fun!
Here is the one I made last year for a friend....
So I set about creating a couple more!
The first one I made uses papers from the Fire & Ice kit which had an Asian flair to it. I didn't have many of the "Ice" (blues) papers left so I concentrated on the "Fire" (red/yellow/orange) colors.
I added two signatures in addition to pull out cards tucked into each envelope just as the instructions directed. I added a few embellishments to each of the mini books which made this little book quite chunky. I popped the stitches a bit on the envelopes but the book still looks great.
It's got LOTS of real estate for memories.
This next book was made using papers from the Hopes collection.
Instead of the signatures I added tuck in pages almost like cards into each envelope.
You can have them partially tucked in or all the way in each envie. Either way you'll end up with almost as many places for photos as you do in the one above.
Here's the back of this album...room for more pics!
Now for the fun...
Would you like to win one of these mini albums?

I'd love to win one! I'd also love to try to make one myself!
ReplyDeleteLove these envelope mini albums, am going to try and make one, thanks for sharing, I love your work
ReplyDeleteThose are great Roni! I need to try that out. I love all the room for photos and journaling too.
ReplyDeleteRoni I love that idea for tucking the signatures into the pockets!! Brilliant! I think I may try that with a few of mine!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Great envie albums, Roni! No need to include me in the drawing, but I just wanted to let you know I love 'em!
ReplyDeleteI started an envelope album - key word "started". I have vintage images set aside to use, now I just need to do it! I used my Envelope Punch Board from We R Memory Keepers to make my envelopes. I like that I'm not limited to the sizes of pre-made envelopes. I didn't think I needed the Board, but I'm finding that I use it a lot. It's really handy for these albums. Thanks for the chance to win one of yours. They're beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI remember when you made last years album. It is so lovely and I'm sure your friend appreciates it very much! These two new ones are awesome!!!! These envelope albums looked very tricky before & they still do!! hee hee!! Part of me wants to make one & the other part just wants to win one!!! Let's see which one gets their way!! Thanks Roni for sharing once again!
ReplyDeleteThankyou Roni I love your fire and ice passport to fun album. I love m ini albums your blog and inspirations!
ReplyDeleteFun little mini albums. Always looking for things to send to my grand daughter. thanks as always for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI really like the variation with the "card-like" folded signatures...so much fun! Both of your versions are awesome. (No need to include me in the giveaway...share with another lucky reader!)
ReplyDeleteWas just yesterday thinking of making a envelope mini album. I've seen the albums but have never made one.
ReplyDeleteI love your albums. It is hard to pick which one I like the best as the Fire and Ice calls to me because of the bold, vivid colors. Hope calls to me because of all the wonderful patterns the collection has. If I were to win I would cherish one of these albums. In the mean time I think it is time to get crafty and inky and make one myself. Thanks for sharing and for the giveaway.
How cool! I've not seen these before, and they are pieces of art just like they are. Would love to have one, and finding instructions to make! Would be wonderful for painting!
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, yes. I tried to make one of these before, but realized I didn't have enough envies to make a decent one. Yours are both truly fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win one! I'd also love to try to make one myself! Wish I could see one up close or get the directions! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWaauww you ARE on a roll !!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors, nice and bright!

ReplyDeletelove to get one, they look like fun and pretty easy to make. I will put that on my project list
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous! Love the color of the Fire and Ice one especially. Maybe I'll win one as a birthday present (May 22). ;)
