Cottage Core Mini Album - 49 and Market

Hi 49 and Market fans

Hope you all had a good Holiday. Wishing you a fabulous, healthy and prosperous 2025.

I am on the blog today with a mini album created using the Cottage Core Range - using the Cottage Core Foundations Binder that comes with the range, already with the pages and pocket sleeves - all you have to do is embellish it. I have used the 6"x8" Collection pack of papers to cover the pages - as these fit perfectly - no need to measure and cut.

I had such fun putting this together. I created the cover with a mix of lasercut elements and die cuts, as well as using Nature's Bounty Cream flowers. I have done a mixture of recipe pages and photo pages and then also some fun bits. Like the 4 page pockets included with the album.

I have made use of the lasercut elements and created features like food and the furniture, adding these to the pages with foam tape to create some dimension.

Above photo on the left is two flats, and lifting the tag that has "yum yum" on it reveals and full frame inside for a photo or a recipe.

Above collage top row - shows the 4 pocket plastic sheet included in the Cottage Core Album - and I have made 4 little features for each on the front and the back. The Cottage Core paper Treasured in the 12 x 12 pack, has 12 cards that can be cut to fit these pocket sizes. The bottom two photos is one of the smaller pages in the album, which I embellished, and closed it that I created a pocket with it to insert a tag.

There are even one single pocket sleeves like the top right, where I have added a photo - this is my daughter and Daddy baking a cake together 💕There are individual recipe cards that come in a pack ideal for making this mini album a beautiful recipe book. The bottom right photo is a 3 pocket sleeve also included in the album.

Above are more ideas in the album. There are many more pages and plastic sleeves in the album than what I have showed here - this is just a sample and ideas of what can be done in the album.

Hope you enjoyed looking through the pages.

Hugs,

Michelle
