Genuine through and through...
I have a weakness for mini albums... especially canvas albums. I love how you can mist them with any color and it is so easy.
For my mini album today, first I sprayed the pages with the perfect pearls blue smoke {this color is so great with the Genuine collection}. Next, I layerd the pages with papers from "Genuine" and added a little tin on the front {originally this was a tin filled with little buttons of Maya Road - I am so happy I kept it 'just in case'}. Authentique is my favorite brand of paper to create mini albums with. The heavy weight of the cardstock and the rich texture of the paper make the album so much more substantial and soft to the touch. Combining the canvas mini and textured papers is like a dream come true!
I have blogged about the harvest here in Holland before, and I'll continue to share my photos and experiences, it is one of my family's favorite time of year, and I love creating projects with photos from the harvest. {Notice the little photo in the tin...}



I used the main 'title' sticker from the 12x12 Details sheet which says: "Genuine through and through" - this is one of my favorite sayings and it made for a great page in the album where I didn't want to add a photo.



Below is a close up of a bottle cap tin which I lined with paper and layered with a few of the stickers and alphabets, again from the Details sticker sheet. The possibilities are endless when you pair the beautiful, rich paper products from Authentique Paper with any little findings you may have in your scrapbook stash.

I hope I've inspired you today, and if you haven't had a chance to create with the Genuine (denim-inspired) collection or with any Authentique Paper, for that matter, you are missing out!
I have a fondness for minis myself. This one is great! Thanks!
