Sweet Tooth Mini Album

Finally: my mini album is completed after a couple months of planning. I first saw a toilet roll version from a scrapbook store called Memories Lives On in Cupertino, California. It took a while to collect all the necessary papers and embellishments since the paper line is about a year old already. I am sorry I did not take note of the original designer of this album to give her credit. My version is using Eyeglass Cases which are slightly larger than the toilet roll size. Finished project size is 6-1/2" x 4" excluding the 1" Antique Silver O-wires. The paper collection used is from Bo Bunny: Sweet Tooth. It is definitely the cutest paper collection around but hard to find now unless you do a search on line The cover is simple popped up mat. The frame is a Spellbinders Label 19. "Sweets" and "yum" are cut using my SCAL3 program using a script font form my computer. All brads used throughout this mini are also from the Bo Bunny Sweet Tooth Collection. To add character to this mini, all the edges have been brushed with brown ink.
