Summer Holiday Mini

I made this mini-album for my sister recently.  For the first time she and her son spent the summer holiday in different countries - my sister here in Wales and her son in Turkey with family.  With the help of Facebook I secretly obtained some photos and created this pull-out accordion album in kraft cardstock - large photos of Turkey and small photos in die cut slide mounts of Wales.  Mini-albums are one of my most favourite things to make and I've done quite a few, but I got the idea for this one from Cristina during the July Papertrey Ink countdown.  Don't you just love that vintage camera stamp!  I think my sister liked it.

Thanks to Godelieve once again for the use of her excellent template.
