I just picked this issue up on Sunday afternoon. I can’t wait to try some of these during my summer break. Thanks for another fabulous issue!
I am definitely a traditional album kind of girl. The mag looks great though, will have to see if I can get my hands on one!
I love this passport accordion album! I do a mix of traditional 12×12 and mini albums.
I cannot wait to get this hot little issue in my hands! My go-to albums are 12×12 traditional albums, but I’ve been itching to expand my horizons. I think this issue will be perfect for doing just that!
Traditional albums are my most made, but it is really fun to go outside the box once in a while and make a mini!

I usually work with traditional 12X12 scrapbooks. I have done a few mini books.
I mostly make cards, but I do make a yearly calendar, featuring family photos/activities throughout the year. I also have made several gift albums, weddings, anniversary, travel,etc , with all the components that the receiver only needs to pop in the photos. I prefer traditional type, because I like to play with the papers, inks, chalks etc.
I do both traditional and a few minis for seasonal pics.
I do traditional albums – one for each kid. The passport album looked awesome, though. Thanks for the chance to win!
I do the traditional ones, but really really want to try a mini!
I’ve been stalking CK sites and blog and the magazine. Love all your ideas and inspiration.
TQ!
I’m typically a traditional scrapper, but squeeze in a mini album every once in a while.
I love creating mini albums, they are fun fast and easy to complete! Thanks for the chance to win!
I’m usually a traditional scrapper. I think I’m a mini album collector, LOL
I am largely a traditional 12×12 scrapper but I make some mini albums and want to do some photo album scrapbooks so I would LOVE to have a look at this book.
I have just recently started scrapping so I began with mini albums since its quick & easy & less intimidating
I plan to venture into classic albums soon.
I create lots of mini albums as gifts, but rarely keep them for myself.
I prefer mini albums as well as digital. I created one over on shutterfly for baby #3 and it came out absolutely marvelous!
I’m a traditional 12×12 girl. Toying with digital….
Thanks for the chance at a copy of this fab issue!
I love mini-albums!!
I scrap in 12×12, but a mixed media album for a decorative punch gets my heart a fluttering. Thanks for these great prizes!

I most often do layouts for traditional scrapbooks, but I also love doing themed mini-albums, both traditional and digital.
I am going to grab this issue for sure! I can’t wait to get started on creating with these ideas!
I mostly do 12×12 for myself and I mini-albums as gifts. Thanks for a chance to win!
I am a traditional scrapbooker myself. I do 12×12 and 8×8 sizes mainly. I’ve done some mini albums and one digital album.
I have done all traditional albums so far, but I plan on doing my youngest daughter’s first year album based on Becky Higgins’ “Project 365″ concept.
I create mostly traditional, 12 x12 albums but I love to make a mini every now and then.
I make traditional mini-albums mostly as gifts. I’ve made mini albums of recipes for bridal shower gifts and mini albums of the grandkids for my mom and mom-in-law. I’ve even done one for me about me. I’d like to get into hybrid or digital so I can do a family cookbook, and then print out several copies to distribute to the family.
I mostly do traditional, but have done special albums for our vacations. they are alot of work!
I moslty do individual children’s albums and family. Would LVE to win thw idea book!

I most often create mini albums. It’s the easiest thing to commit to.

I love CK’s special issues and this one is no exception! I can’t wait to get my copy!
I love creating mini albums. They are my favorite by far, I can tell the full story with just 24 pictures or less. I love that about them.
What a cute mini!
I do traditional. However, I am looking to start doing hybrid.
I need to try a mini album! Seems like it would be easier to finish in a short period of time…
I’ve always had done the traditional 12×12 scrapbooking but lately I’ve been doing the mini albums. I’ll make up one for myself and a matching one to give away.
Once I settle down to attack the project, I love to create mini albums. They are such a fun way to give the focus to one event and I love that they can be any size you want to make them!
