This mini album has to be a record for me for the most cricut cuts in one project - 28!! That doesn't even include the layer cuts and duplicates!! I found so many images that just had to be included in this mini!! Even with all these die cuts, it's not too much because it allows the real stars, (the recipes) to shine!! This album is also featured over at Cricut Mini Albums ! I used a 5x7 album that I put together with the bind-it-all. I used some 7 Gypsies cardstock stickers to embellish this album as well as the cricut cuts. I have a stamp set that I used for the words on the tabs.

This project was posted on Decor Tuesday, Feb. 9th.  I thought this would be great to frame in a 12x12 scrapbook page frame with a family wedding picture. It could also be a layout in a scrapbook.  The background is just a 12x12 piece of Bazzill cardstock. I used Lyrical Letters for the overlay. I fit it to the page using my Gypsy but you could just use the fit-to-page button on your Cricut if you wanted to.  The word "FAMILY" was from Winter Woodland and was cut at 2.5". Very easy to make but also very elegant. I inked the edges of the overlay for some added color.  I will have another layout posted on Weddings with the Cricut on layout Wednesday.  Be sure to check it out as well as all of the other awesome projects that are posted there daily!  Lots of inspiration for DIY weddings!  Thanks for looking!
