A Little Mini Album

Okay, so that title is a little redundant! :) lol.




I ran across these little accordion albums a couple of weeks ago, and thought I **must** make one! With Mother's Day approaching, I thought it would be a nice gift for my Mother in Law.


You can find the original post & instructions here: Accordion Albums - on http://www.eighteen25.blogspot.com/ it's a fun blog in general. Glad I found it!



Anyway, I messed up a little bit on mine. I had the kids draw pictures for Yaya (my mother in law), and we added them to the back pages of the album..........TOTALLY forgetting that the album is suppose to be tied with a ribbon around the back...like this (photo from http://www.eighteen25.blogspot.com/):

oops.


No biggie! We just left off the ribbon so Yaya could enjoy the fabulous artwork on the back. :)

I think it's still cute, and hopefully it doesn't look like it's missing something. :)
Have a great day!
Linda
