If you are here and reading this I think I may know something about you.

You have a thing for mini albums.

I know you do because you tell me all the time. This little mini in particular is a definite new favorite of mine. I'm a little loving this one for sure. Thinking you are gonna like it as well.

Every time I post anything with these Nested Pocket Dies, I get many questions about them. I had not made a mini album with them like this before. This was such great fun. There is a REEL on my Instagram feed that shares a bit of the details. But it will probably need a full blown YouTube to chat about all the things.

I used a different Sun Chaser pattern for each pocket. I just played and moved patterns around until I like the combination. Then I cut each pocket out from the Nested Pocket Dies.

Next, I cut an additional pattern paper to fit the back of each of the pockets plus about a half inch more. That portion was scored, then folded, and fold was tucked into the pocket behind it.

Yeah...this is gonna need a full blown tutorial. That's for sure.

And that is what makes this a Pocket Book. Pocket bound to another pocket. Then layers of ephemera and definition stickers and puffy stickers. This could be a mini album for photos. It could be a junk journal, home to all our favorite papery things. It could be a quote book, holding all your favorites.

Like I say so often, the possibilities are multiple. And the outcome? Magical.
