Frugal Friday with Larissa

Today we have a very creative (& frugal) mini-album created by the talented Larissa Albernaz!

This time I bring you a cheap and easy mini-album you can create using Prima packaging.

Step 1. Recycle the package of Prima AllStar Collection Metal Brads for the cover of the album. Remove the brads that you can use in any other fabulous Prima project or even in this one.

Cover the inside part of it with patterned paper.

Step 2. We are gonna use just 2 sheets of 12X 12 Prima Allstar Patterned paper for the inside pages of this album. Cut 3 stripes of Prima Allstar collection Patterned paper (4X 9 inches; 4X 8; 4X7). Score each one at 5".

Step 3. Put them all together by making two holes to the cover and attaching a thread that will hold the pages of this mini.

Step 4. Cut and paste 2 pieces of patterned paper size 2 1/2 X 4 inches to the front and back cover of the mini album.

Step 5. Use three more pages from the 6X6 All Star Paper Pad to decorate each page by adding a few cutouts and mats. You can also add a couple of flowers and wooden embellishments to finish up the project. With a few extra dollars you can use alphabet stickers and add titles to the mini album pages.
