"Explore" Topnote Mini Album

Hey all!

Happy Thursday!! The weekend is right around the corner! Do you plan on doing something fun? Are you traveling or exploring? Well, if you are - I have a treat for you! Today's post is of a quick and easy mini album.

I am going to be giving this little number away. Yay! So, be sure to leave a comment for your chance to win. (**WINNER POSTED BELOW**)

Now, on to the good stuff. I used a top note die to cut out 5 pages in chipboard and 10 pages in the Teresa Collins Far & Away 6x6 paper pad.  I used some foam dots to pop up my title. Some of the extra ephemera I used was from the Farmhouse paper collection. I also used my Cameo to die cut a cute little frame to surround my title. It reads: The Journey not the arrival matters. I think it turned out cute!




 I added a 7 gypsies binding ring through a Making Memories xl eyelet, to hold some black and cream lace from my stash. I simply tied those in a knot. That cute little bottle cap charm was from swap I hosted on my blog. It works perfectly on the cover. Jute rope is wrapped around the edge of the mini and tied in a bow. This is what the charms hangs from.  The little dangles are adorable :)

I kept the pages on the inside very clean and simple. The tabs that you'll see are left a bit open. This is so the pictures can tuck behind. Here are some pics of the inside of the mini album:


 













Isn't it just the cutest thing? I think so  :) Be sure to stop by my blog and leave a comment for a chance to win this and a little something extra ;).
