One of the best parts of being the Design Team Lead at My Mind’s Eye is giving our designers their CHA assignments.  Seriously!  Which amazing new collection do you get to design with?  It’s like I’m Santa Claus.

My cute nephew has a landmark birthday coming up and I was asked to create an album for him celebrating how much he has grown and changed in the past 8 years.  The new Six by Six collection with all 12 different color and design schemes makes creating an album SO easy.  So, I  assigned myself to change to play with it.

Since this is for a special occasion, I wanted the album to be a little more formal with soft colors that highlight the pictures.  I chose to use the Paris & Co. pad mixed with Lost & Found 2 – Breeze embellishments.  By keeping the design fairly simple and using TWO Paris & Co. pads, this album came together in an afternoon – a record for me!

I’ve included instructions to make it easy to recreate this album for your loved one.  No matter what special birthday is coming up for your loved one, this idea is for you!

I hope you enjoy today’s segment.  The album was made more entertaining by the revelation of my sons about who causes every fight in our home (Please don’t watch if you thought there was no fighting in our home.  I don’t want to ruin the illusion).
