This is a series of videos where Maymay uses the Hello Fall paper pack and paper bags( yep paper bags) and make a mini album. She will be doing a classic paper bag style album. I have listed below the products we will be using, and she may use other items as we get going but we are making this project in real-time so 'she doesn't know how it will turn out yet! So gather up those supplies, a fall themed drink and let's create!

Bags I am using are 8 1/2 x 4 5/8 in
8 Bags
4- 5 1/2 b 5 1/4 cards stock for page flaps scored at 4 3/4 on the 5 1/4 side
