Hi everyone!  I just fell in love with Lori’s Echo Park collection, Dino-Mite.  It is just so dang cute with the sweetest images and the colors are just so fun.  I have a coworker who has this little guy who is all about dinosaurs and he just turned two, so I thought I would make a mini for her to document some of their adventures over his Birthday weekend.  I used Lori’s 4×6 pocket page mini album here in the Silhouette Online Design Store or you can find it here in Lori’s Store.  I also didn’t realize Lori already had a tutorial on it, so I’m putting the link here for it also.  I put mine together a little differently, lol.

Lori’s Tutorial

I started by using Echo Park’s Dino Mite Card Stock Pack and cut all of my pages first, two of each color.  Using the cardstock pack gives you two colors, so it works out perfectly when you fold your pages over to create the pockets for a nice contrast.  Just fold on the score-lines, add your adhesive and you have your four pocket pages.  Next, I cut my four smaller pockets from the 6×6 Dino-Mite paper pad, fold on the score-line and add adhesive.  Here’s where I did mine differently, I added these smaller pockets to the back side of each of these pages with the pre-attached pockets.  No biggie there.  Turned out just as cute. Each of these pockets also has an insert that Lori’s has designed to go inside, you can matt your photos on these or add your journaling.  You’ll see those in the finished pictures.  I used the Echo Park matching Dino-Mite Card Stock again for those.
