Summertime Fun Mini Album

We love having barbecues with the neighbors! We drag the grill to our side yard (we live on a culdesac)and set up tables. Everyone brings something and we just sit around eating, drinking and talking. The kids run around and play and everyone is happy! Our most recent BBQ was on the 4th of July. I decided to make a mini about it using Little Yellow Bicycle's summer line. I started with the envelope album kit and added stickers, journaling tags and borders.




I made the photos 3 by 5 and they became some of my pages. Here's a look at the inside of the album.














Ryan loves looking through it. The BBQs are one of his favorite things in the world. (He starts asking in February if we can have them.)

For a detailed list of materials, check out the Emma's Paperie Blog.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

    Your mini turned out so amazingly beautiful! Just love the summery feel to it. And I agree, there's no better way to spend your summer evenings than with a wonderful BBQ with friends:)

    I don't blame Ryan for asking for your BBQ's! They look like SO much fun. You are so lucky to live in a neighborhood like this. :)
    Your mini is simply the sweetest thing, Anabelle! Love the envelope album and love the photo pages. Wonderful details everywhere.
