Mini-Book Inspiration

Simple and Sweet Album Templates III by Scrapping with Liz
Outdoor Adventures by Sweet Shoppe Designs

Jessica, one of my creative team members, made this fabulous little mini-book with my Simple and Sweet Album Templates III. She used Storybook Creator to re-size and scrap the templates.  You can easily re-size the templates in Photoshop as well. This video tutorial will show you how to re-size pretty much any template in Photoshop, and here's another video tutorial that should help. In Storybook Creator Jessica grouped all the layers together, and then shrank them to a 5x7 size.

BTW-Storybook Creator is no longer available, but Panstoria is a similar scrapbooking software that is available. Storybook Creator and Panstoria require templates in .page format. All of my templates come in .page format as well as .psd and .tiff. From what I understand Storybook Creator and Panstoria have a quicker learning curve than Photoshop.

She said these templates really helped her quickly put together this album. It took her two days to complete this album (she has 5 kids so you can imagine the amount of time she has to scrap!). She's already printed it and given them away as gifts.

So, take a look at her beautiful pages, and remember that a 12x12 template can be used for so much more!

Don't these beautiful pages make you want to put together a mini-album?
