Graphic 45 ATC Size Mini Book

This little album was made for a friend's birthday. The companion card was posted yesterday.  I love this little mini album - finished size is 3" x 4" and will hold (36) 2" x 3" photos. Can you even believe that?  Inspiration for this project from Alexandra - her blog is Clay Guana found here. This project on her blog is called the ATC Size Mini Album posted on August 23, 2015 - instructions can be found here. Graphic 45 Couture Paper used.
Chain Tassels are from Rangers Tim Holtz Ideaology and Brads from Tim Holtz   Ideaology. A We R Memory Keeper Enveloper punch used to make the tags and pocket flaps.  Clear Wink of Stella is added to many of the clothes worn by the girls (unfortunately, none of the photos show this).
Here is the Album Front:
