Heartfelt creations 'Butterfly Medley' Album



Heartfelt creations 7" x 7" 'Butterfly Medley' Album


Although I have used the HFC collection, this album is designed to use any 6" x 6" paper pack or you can use 12"x 12" card stock and cut each sheet x 4 making this a very economical album

I have used many different dies besides the HFC collection to show that this album can be embellished using what you already have.


Here's a view of the album:
