Using the new Office Hours collection from Pinkfresh Studio in a pocket size traveler’s notebook from Webster’s Pages, we’ll create the cutest memory album you ever saw, perfect for your photos of your work life or everyday life. As I was creating this album, I thought of so many ideas of what it could be used for... school photos, lists, daily life, goals and dreams, as a memory planner, a reading/book journal, your career, and so many more things. The bright modern design of the papers and embellishments are so fun in the small size green suede book (4 1/2” x 6 1/4” and over 2” thick.) It’s fat and chunky and as cute as can be! You’ll learn lots of techniques for your mini albums and larger size traveler’s notebooks, too. Check out Debby's blog for more pictures.

Student supply list:
Each person needs their own 12” paper trimmer and adhesive (I most frequently use 1/4” and 1/2” wide Scor-pal tape. Narrow tape will be best for this book.)
Please also bring the following helpful tools... scissors, scallop scissors, pencil, ruler, stapler, scoring tool, Crop a Dile punch or hole punch, foam tape adhesive, corner rounder punch, 1” circle punch, powder to make stickers unsticky.

They say that thankful people are the happiest people, and I think scrapbookers are the most thankful people because we celebrate the people and good things in our lives in our scrapbooks. This beautiful album is the perfect place to document all that you are thankful for or to use for anything you choose... family photos, fall activities, holiday photos, your home, travel... anything you can imagine. The papers and embellishments can be adapted for many different uses for your book.
