It's time for a new challenge over at Double D Challenges. This week the theme is "Frames". This challenge had me stumped, so I started looking through my vast pile of scrapbooking papers and found this kit from Mintay called "Home For Christmas".
"Where are the frames" you say? I'll get there, I promise. Because Mintay papers are so beautiful, it's hard to narrow down to make just one card, so I opted to make a mini album.
Lets start with this handsome nutcracker. He filled the cover of the mini album perfectly.
Open the album and now you'll see where the "frames" came into play.
This paper pack had an entire sheet filled with frames, perfect for adding photo's or captions, to preserve some beautiful Christmas memories.
Each page holds a different surprise. From flaps that lift to add more space to removable tags for journaling.
The paper has the most beautiful scenes which easily made into a tri-fold flip out panel.
This page has a hidden pocket....
Which reveals another wonderful tag! Just look at how gorgeous these paper are!!
A few more frames to find on this tri-fold pull out.
A little pocket at the back of the album makes for a great spot to save more of those lovely frames.
The album in its completion, tied closed with a vintage lace ribbon.
I hope you enjoyed today's project and will be inspired by this wonderful inspiration panel:

Oh, my goodness gracious! I've always been enchanted by these mini-albums, not to mention Mintay papers. Suffice to say my jaw has dropped. Every turn of the page brings more delight!
I absolutely LOVE this! Making mini albums is my all time favorite thing to do in the history of EVER, and yours is just adorable. Plus, I love MINTAY paper too. Well done, I can't stop looking at this.
Well I don't know what happened I was typing and was going to post when my cat decided to jump off my lap so I don't know if I am repeating a comment again, LOL! I love this pretty album and the way you used the frame inside, wonderful pages, it would make a great gift for someone!
Girl you have outperformed yourself. Good thing you found that kit because it really needed to be used. This is a knockout album and one that will be given to a good friend or kept for yourself to display a Christmas time. It's only June so you're way ahead of yourself. Loved for your album.
Wow, those papers sure are in the right hands! This is incredible, Birgit. Beautifully done!
