Create a Mini Album that Radiates Joy with Noemi
To begin my creative process, I asked myself: what radiates joy for you? The answer quickly came to mind: my loved ones! I decided to create a mini album to have a reminder on my desk of the things that make me happy and keep them in sight. This type of album is perfect for this purpose because it allows you to swap out the cards, so you can always see different photos and phrases, maintaining the perfect inspiration for each day.
The process of making the album was so fun. Using the Radiate Joy collection, I designed many 3 x 4 inch cards. I loved the cards already included in the collection, but I customized some to give them a special touch. I combined decorative cards with inspiring phrases from the collection and cards with photos of my loved ones.
I use letter-sized sheets for printing; hence, you can fit 12 double-sided cards in two sheets printed on both sides. For the base, I used two 4 ½ x 3 inch pieces of cardboard for the sides and one 3 x 2-inch piece for the base. I bound them with floral paper, made a hole in the center of all the cards, and used a ring to assemble everything.
The result is simply charming. I enjoyed creating the cards so much that I will be adding and swapping the as I take new photos of moments that make me happy.
