Happy Thursday, everyone! My favorite day of the week. I have another mini album to show you today. This is a kind of mini I've been wanting to make for a while, but have been a little intimidated by it. Well, it wasn't bad at all. I should have given it a try a long time ago.
This idea is in my OUTSTANDING MINI ALBUMS book, but also there is a GREAT tutorial to make it on the internet too. You can find it HERE. The instructions and helpful pictures are outstanding on CRAFTY LIFE AND STYLE. I would not have attempted this kind of mini if I had not found this post.
Here's my Coin Envelope Mini Album with details following the pictures.

Not shown in the photos above, I ended up stamping the bottom of every tag with one of Mary's CARDZ TV STAMPS from various sets. Here are the stamps I ended up using:
On the front cover:
Count Your Blessings from THANKFUL FOR YOU
On the front and back of every tag, these stamps were used:
From ENCOURAGING THOUGHTS:
God Bless You!
my friend
Smile!
be happy
Bless your heart!
From THANKFUL FOR YOU:
Thankful for you
Count your blessings!
From MAKE A WISH:
It's your day!
Enjoy!
Sweet!
From IT'S A GUY THING:
DUDE
From GOING BUGGY!
BZZZZZZ!
BUGGY!
Ladybug hugs!
Just buzzing by to say hi!
Ants in your pants!
Cute as a BUG!
Be sure and stop by Mary's CARDZ TV STAMPS and check them out! You need to get them for yourself. They are awesome!
