HOMETOWN USA 4TH OF JULY MINI ALBUM | with Erica

Every June I like to create a simple mini album base to document our 4th of July memories! This year I am using the Doodlebug Design Hometown USA collection!

I have had a pack of red coil in my stash forever and I thought it would be perfect with the Hometown USA collection. I started with the coordinating 12x12 textured cardstock assortment pack and trimmed down some of the papers to 8"x5.25"for my mini album page bases.

Next I trimmed down some of the 12'x1 Hometown USA pattern papers to 7.25"x5" and glued them to the mini album base pages. Some of the pages I wanted to created a pocket so I created 12"x5.25" pages and scored at 8" on the long side. Then I added adhesive to create the pockets.

Once all the pages were covered with pattern papers I punched holes with my Cinch. This is one of my favorite ways to create mini albums. Next I ran the coil through each of the holes and trimmed it down.

I embellished each page lightly with Odds & Ends, Chit Chat pieces and Icon cardstock stickers. My pages are ready to add photos and journaling and even more embellishments this year! I can easily add more pages if needed!

Thanks so much for stopping by the Doodlebug Blog! I hope you enjoyed this project and are inspired to create your own July album to document your memories!
