1 | Choose Your Tags
Pull several tags from the Among the Wildflowers Tag Pad--choose some to be the page base and some cut into pockets.

2 | Create Your Pockets
Trim some of your tags into sections measuring 2 1/2 inches tall to create your pockets. Use a circle punch or metal die to cut a notch in the top center. Glue or sew your pockets onto the base tag pages.

3 | Fill Your Pockets
Trim down pieces of the 4x6 Journaling Notecards from Among the Wildflowers to add to your pockets--these sizes will vary in width depending on your sewing/glueing; vary the heights as well so you create visual interest! 


Add some of the itty bitty tags from the Among the Wildflowers Ephemera to a couple of the pockets.

4 | Decorate Your Pages
Decorate your tag pages with ephemera, stickers, and rub on transfers from the Among the Wildflowers collection. 

If you use foam adhesive, use 1 or 2 millimeter thick foam to keep your mini album from becoming too thick and so the pages don't catch on each other.

5 | Decorate the Cover
Make the cover more dimensional by adding the shutter from the Spring Tales Mould cast in Redesign's Casting Mix. Glue it on with Finn's Heavy Body Gel. 

To create the double-winged white butterfly, pull two butterflies of the same size facing in the opposite direction from the Vellum Ephemera pack. Glue them together at the body with a clear glue. 

Glue the butterfly and some flowers to the shutter and tag. Add a chipboard sticker and some Say It In Crystals.

6 | Assemble Your Mini Album
Add all of your pages and cover to a loose leaf binder ring. Color some seam binding with Distress Spray Stain in Speckled Egg, crumple it up and dry it with a heat tool to preserve the crinkles. 

Tie this crinkle ribbon and some of the Spools of Yarn into a bow on the binder ring.

And that's it! It truly is that easy to create a tag mini album with the Among the Wildflowers collection. And you can always add journaling bits and photos to these pockets too.
