It was very difficult to choose a product from the January to April 2025 Mini catalogue to showcase, because there are so many which I love.
I chose the Wildflower Birthday Suite as it is so versatile and can be used for a multitude of occasions - basically any cause for celebration!
Another reason for my choice, is the fact that this Suite coordinates perfectly with the fabulous new Wildflower Birthday Scrapbooking Workshop Kit. This can be be viewed in my Online shop by selecting 'Shop Products' from the Main Menu and then 'Memory Keeping' > 'Scrapbooking Workshop Kits'. Plus during Sale-A-Bration, you can receive a free Level 1 item with the purchase of the Bundle and Designer Series Paper pack! I chose the Starstruck Embossing Folder as a free item and used it on the cover of my mini album,
Today's project was created for a special young lady celebrating her 21st birthday next month. I chose to make a fun fold card, very aptly named 'Centre of Attention'. I also created a mini album for her to keep her favourite photos of her special day and party.
This card is a fairly straightforward to make, using Stampin' Up!'s Paper Trimmer, which both cuts and scores.
The card base is Thick Basic White cardstock measuring 8" x 5 1/2" which is scored along the long side at 2" and 6". With the card base in 'Portrait' position, cut a slit 1 1/4" in from the side edge between the two scored lines (from the 2" to the 6" mark on the side ruler).Turn the card base around 180 degrees and cut the other slit as above.
With the card base in 'Landscape' position, score at 3" in from the left edge from slit to slit. Turn the card around 180 degrees and score between the slits again.
With the card base in 'Landscape position, score at 4" (card base centre) from the top edge down to the slit and again from from the lower edge up to the slit.

The Mini Photo Album cover was created using the cardboard inserts which come in the Specialty Designer Series Paper packs. I used Basic White cardstock to cover the cardboard for the outside cover and Blueberry Bushel cardstock to cover the inside of the album. The cardstock was glued to the cardboard using Tombow Multipurpose liquid glue.
