Back To School backpack mini album

Hey everybody! I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with our new Love to Learn Collection that was just released two days ago! I paired papers and die cut pieces in this collection with our KIS Cuts Backpack Mini Album along with a variety of stitched dies and paper packs in the Back To Basics line. Needless to say, I had a good time putting this together!

Using the KIS Cuts Backpack Mini Album dies, I die cut all the pieces for the base album from American Crafts Denim cardstock. I covered the pages with an assortment of patterned papers in the Love To Learn 6×9 Collection Pack. Each page is embellished with Love To Learn Die Cut Pieces, stitched die cut shapes, pull-ups, pull-outs, and/or papers with ephemera from the Back To Basics paper line. I used Royal ribbon for the straps, velcro circles for closures on the front flaps, and Glossy Accents to the tacks on the front flaps. I really enjoyed making this!
