Birthday Mini Album

From the moment I saw this chipboard mini album by Magistical Memories, I knew I had to get one and make a book for one of my girls.  I absolutely love the design element where that the words "Happy" and "Birthday" stand above the size of the actual page.  Clever.  This whimsical birthday line by Imaginisce pairs just beautifully with such a fun album design.  So here it goes - my first ever birthday mini album.  I have no idea why, but I shy away from birthday projects and pages for some reason. 

"Happy 3rd Birthday"

Supplies:  Paper, Chipboard, Rub-Ons, Springing Stickers (Imaginisce), Trim (Websters Pages), Chipboard Album (Magistical Memories), Chipboard 3 & Felties (Maya Roads), Stamp (Prima), Acrylic (KI Memories), Button (Jenni Bowlin), Bind it All (Zutter), Border Punch (EK Success)

These little springing stickers take me back to my childhood when we played with these little poppers at my Grandmother's house.  I have no idea what they are called but they were little characters held together by a spring and suction cup and you pushed them down and waited from them to pop and give you a scare.  This is the first time I've seen anything like them in many years.  So I'll say it again, CLEVER! 

I used another springing element sticker ("Make a Wish") on this page.  I had a heck of a time trying to get the thing to stop wiggling so I could get a photo.

Oh, the Websters trim again.  Am I the only one who loves the feel of it?  I have to run my fingers through it everytime I use it.  I think part of it is the sheer amazment of how the fabric never wrinkles or gets matted down.  No matter what you do to it, it springs right back up and looks perfect everytime.  That is what I call wonder fabric.

That's all for today.  I've got a Clear Scraps mini album to show you very soon and I'm almost finished a Halloween banner.  Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.  Thanks for stopping by.

EDITED TO ADD:

Look for this album in the Create Mini Albums magazine in May, 2011
