Pin it & Spin it: Mini Accordion Album

I'm bringing back Pin it & Spin it this week!  It's time to get back to being creative, putting all those pins to good use, and staying busy.  I'd love for you to join me.  You can either link up here or upload a pic of your Pinterest inspired projects to my Pin it & Spin it board {if you choose this option just leave a comment with your Pinterest handle and I'll invite you to the group...see you there!}

Onto this week's pin:

The Spin:

I've had a stack of Instax pictures from a friend's circus-themed birthday party and I knew I wanted to use them so I adjusted the length and width through trial-and-error with a scrap piece of cardstock {and now I have that as a template for the next Instax mini album!}.

The possibilities for decorating the inside are endless:  washi tape, shipping tags, ribbons, fun photo corners, and miscellaneous cut-outs were the main ingredients in my album-anything bright, colorful, and circus themed worked.

I left plenty of places and blank pages for my friend Janae to journal about the circus party...

My favorite part of the whole album- a F U N pennant bunting with big top background {and cute-as-a-cupcake Landon who turned three that day}!

I finished up with a simple label on the back of the album and inked all the edges.  I loved this little project and can't wait to work up some more albums for my stack of Instaxes.
