Vacation Flipbook

Happy Monday, friends! I’m sharing a fun little flipbook album I created for my sister. She recently went on a little vacation with her hubby and I wanted to create a fun little mini for her! I felt the need to make her some albums since I made my other sister a few. 🙂

 

 

For this album, I am using Simple Stories’ Just Beachy collection. I just love the bright colors!!! It’s super colorful and perfect for beach photos. I had fun with the cover as you can see… That lifesaver floaty is too cute… I added a variety of foam stickers, die cuts, stickers, and rub-ons all around it. I tucked in the beach houses at the sides to fill in the white space. I especially love the little froggy! 

 

 

For the inside of the cover, I kept it simple. I cut the floral die cut in half to create a straight edge and added the camera and metal decorative brad. I also added the sticker strip to the metal fastener for fun. 

 

 

 

I kept this page pretty simple so that the focus remains on the gorgeous photo. Sometimes, a little goes a long way.

 

 

I added a cluster of die cuts, chipboard, and foam stickers to add interest to the photo without taking up too much space.

 

 

More fun clusters!! Clusters are great for photos with a lot of white space… What do you think?

 

 

Again, I kept this album super simple. I finished this album in two hours. 

 

 

I added the waves paper across the floral print to break up the patterns a bit and then placed the die-cut flowers behind the “Tropical Paradise” chipboard sentiment. I used foam squares to pop up the chipboard to add dimension.

 

 

I matted the picture on patterned paper and adhered it to the 4×6 page at an angle to allow some space for the tag and flower.
 

 

Not going to lie… I love this little van and had to find a way to use it… I added the palm trees in the back and then mounted it down using foam squares. The yellow flower is a rub-on and the sentiment is from the chipboard package. Isn’t this cute? 

 

 

As you can see, I don’t use photos on every page. I love to decorate a few pages with all the gorgeous die cuts! This is a great way to create a mini with under 10 photos.

 

 

That palm tree patterned paper is so cute. I decided to use all of the green/blue embellishments I could find for this spread to create a fun monochromatic spread.

 

 

I’m hoping to create a process video of how I put these little albums together for those who want to make one but aren’t sure where to start! Hopefully, in June I’ll have one to share. Thank you so much for visiting today and I hope you have a great week!
