wedding mini

Kathryn from Life on the Scrap Beach has a very easy to follow tutorial for a paper bag mini album online here - so easy that this was my first attempt and while there are a few mistakes, no one else seemed to notice...  I used predominantly papers from K & Company and similar papers from Recollections.  The flowers are mostly of my own making although the white roses are from Kaisercraft and the butterflies are from Michaels - the white ones from the wedding section and the others from Recollections.  The paper lunch bags are just from the dollar store; however, in future I would pay a little more for a higher quality bag.  The ribbons and other bling are from my stash that I have picked up here and there along the way.  I hope you enjoy as much as I enjoyed making and giving.  scrap happy!!
