Mini Mini Me {Hybrid}

It's all about you sometimes right? Of course it should be so why not start scrapbooking about yourself, doing your own favorite quirk albums, and or qoutes. Today I am going to show you a mini I made using a variety of different elements from different digital packs.

First thing you want to do is batch print your elements for easier cutting and to save paper. I always insert them into a collage format and then save it as a jpeg. I would open my word document and insert images and print them all together.

Step1dhd

I am not a huge fan of my handwriting so sometime before I print I will type in what I would like to say on the journal spots and or pages so that it is pretty neat and only chance using my own handwriting in some parts of the page or album.

Step2dhd
Once you print out your designs that you are going to use in your mini get some of your favorite patterned paper that you wish to use to either match or go hodge podge with it and gamble with playing around with color. Cut your papers down to the size of your choice.

Step3dhd
Now that you have your ideas flowing start putting your album together in no particular order just have fun with it, does not have to be exact on what your thoughts are. I truly believe that each page should be unexpected which is probably why I do not have all of my albums put together based on kids, holidays and or vacations. When you turn the page you get something different it keeps it excited and stimulating for those that you are force feeding your memories to.  Once you are satisfied with your cards lay them out and randomly choose what order to put them in.

Step4dhd
After you put it all together punch yourself some holes in it and you are  all finished.

I hope you have been inspired to create yourself a mini album all about you. I used the following items 365 journal cards , schools in session journal tags, love me digital elements, worn journal tags. 

Elements
Remember it is all about hitting the print key, relaxing and enjoying the process.

Have a blissful and creative day,
