Yesterday, my friend Erica and I met up for the Farmer's Market and a day of crafts. I love being crafty almost as much as I love summer vacay. (I love the Farmer's Market, too, for the record.)
I've been wanting to make a wedding card album for some time now. Of course, I found the idea on Pinterest and created something similar last winter with our past three years worth of Christmas cards.
See here? I bound all of our Christmas cards together with binder rings and made a cardboard cover for them. I didn't decorate these covers by hand...printed the document straight from the Internet and glued it to the cardboard.

Turns out, we had WAY too many wedding cards for one album, so I made two! And here's how they turned out! (Need to title the second album, but want to use Erica's pen so they match...I'm anal like that!)

Today, I decided to make another album for all of our baby shower cards. I'm so happy with how it turned out!
I have decided I'm going to make a separate album for each birthday for my kiddos. I think {hope} someday they will really appreciate it!y
And...on a side note: Erica and I decided every Wednesday would be craft day! Hmmm...what do make next week?
Tip: If you want to make a album similar, use photo matting instead of cardboard (as suggested by art teacher Erica). It's a lot flatter, heavier duty, and still easy to work with!
