With Christmas having reached an end, and a pile a holiday photos awaiting you, it's time to start thinking about customizing a place in which to house and preserve them. To help out in this department, a few of the CP Gals followed through on a mission to document twenty-five winter-friendly photos using whatever method they ultimately preferred and our classic seasonal collection, Bundled Up. The very first is from CP Gal, Deb Duty - her go-to multi-photo solution this holiday season is the mini album!

Hi Everyone - I'm excited to share a Christmas minibook created with the beautiful Bundled Up collection. When I was given the assignment to create a project that included 25 photos, I decided it was the perfect opportunity to make a minibook about a past Christmas. I used a pre-made chipboard album as the base. I cut my patterned paper to fit and added photos and embellishments. The chipboard pieces already had the holes for the rings, so I just used a hole punch to add holes to my patterned paper in the same spots.
My cover is simple with tree shapes cut from papers in the Bundled Up 6" x 6" paper pad.
Once I completed my pages, I lightly adhered them to the chipboard with a glue stick, and then stitched them in place to make sure they were secure.
Even if you haven't been documenting every day in December, you can still make a wonderful minibook after Christmas with all of the photos you take during the holidays or you can document a past Christmas. The photos in my minibook were all taken right before or on Christmas Day 2010. So, it's never too late to document one of your unscrapped Christmas celebrations!
This is fabulous!!
