Big Love Minibook | Brandi Kincaid
Tags:
Seeing the stories people tell with my products is something I sincerely enjoy.
Creative Team member Brandi Kincaid shared this awesome little mini-album which is for her husband - a "guide to her many faces; reference only" - a super fun and clever little gift.
Brandi's minibook is built using rings and a red acrylic cover from Jamaica Makes. Added to the cover she used a Silhouette to cut out "big love" from my Thick Valentines word art set. You can watch a tutorial on how to open, trace and cut my PNG files using the Silhouette Studio Software here.
Here's a few pages from the inside of her project that include products from my Heart Story Kit™ and Messy Love Circles:

I love the simple addition of her handwriting as an intro to the album paired with the Studio Calico Mega Date Stamp.

Brandi's formula for this minibook includes a photo of herself on the left and a printed Messy Love Circles (recolored before printing in Photoshop) on the left.
The circle is attached with a brad in the top to create a "turn-up" cover for her journaling. Such a fun way to create an interactive cover-up. See below:

Brandi's photos were taken using an Fujifilm Instax Camera. You can also print this style of photo from your phone using a Fujifilm Instax Share Printer.
Chipboard pieces are from the Heart Story Kit™ (available via subscription until this Sunday, February 14th).

I love the playfulness. I love little books like this that you can hold in your hands. This would be awesome to make for a child too.

She also created a flip out of the little Instax photos - using washi tape to hold it together on the other side (I think :)). She'll let me know if it was something different.
Thanks for sharing with us Brandi!
Hope you have a great weekend!

Valentine’s Day gift ideas can be challenging, especially when trying to make it meaningful but not overly complicated. From my experience, it’s best to focus on what he genuinely enjoys or values. For instance, practical items like a high-quality wallet or a good pair of headphones are always appreciated. If he’s into hobbies, consider something that aligns with his interests—like accessories for his favorite sport or tools for a DIY project. Experiences are also a fantastic option—think tickets to a game, a cooking class you can do together, or even a weekend getaway to relax and reconnect. Sometimes, though, it’s worth stepping outside the traditional and exploring something unexpected. Websites like https://www.nastyhookups.com/ offer a unique approach to casual fun for adventurous types. It’s perfect for those who value connections without the complications of relationships. You can meet like-minded people, enjoy great moments, and move on if it’s not the right vibe.
