Thank you so much for making this video. I might have commented a long time ago but since I started watching your videos I've done some scrapbooking. I'm 16 years old, and my grandma turns 85 today. She lives far away from me and next week she's coming to see my sister's twin babies when they're born. Anyway, I'm making her a scrapbook of me, her grandkids, and great grandkids as a birthday presant. Thank you for giving me ideas. <333

[MsCraftyCritter]

beautiful album! could you do a tutorial on it =)

[NZAyles]

I'm sitting here struggling to watch through the tears. Thank you so much for sharing this. Such an inspiration for me to make something similar featuring my mum & dad who have both passed away.

It's only last weekend that I've been able to start going through my parents photos and papers - that was a day long sob-fest.

Can't wait to start a healing creative memorial like this.

Again, thank you so much. It seems I was 'directed' to this page to see this.

Simply beautiful.

[sexsavannah43]

Girl u really worked that album

[GirlGeekLovesStampin]

Wonderful album! Really shows the truer meaning of scrapbooking.  I was touched.

[Anastasia4141]

I don't do scrapbooking, but this is beautiful and it must have taken an awful lot of work. Amazing. :-)

[christinchen]

Wow, just wow!

I came across this video searching for ideas for my own Mini-Album about my Dad's life I'm making...

I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes hearing you talk about your father... May God rest his soul, he certainly was loved and is missed.

So, great album, absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing this with us!

[MsCraftyCritter]

Ur album is beautiful and had a beautiful story to match. I was just wondering where u got ur chipboard pieces from that you used as your pages? Did u cut them out with a cricut or did u buy them like that? If you did cut them out with a machine where did you get the chipboard? I was thinking of using some granola bar boxes but I think those would be too thin! If you have any suggestions as to where i could get chipboard I would greatly appreciate that. Thank you for the vid

[SoNakoaful]

Still one of my favorite mini's you have made. My father passed in 06', and I have tons of pictures I need to make an album out of, I just hope mine can someday look like this! How long did it take you to finsh this?

[Bettsie54]

What a beautiful album! Thank you for sharing! :)

[minniemate]

Wow made me think of my Dad, what a lovely tribute Kathryn. I'm sure he would be very proud of your creative talents today. Janice.

[PeaceLoveAndSKs]

gorgeous but it is a bit too quiet. my laptop has lousy speakers....it is all the way up and i can barely hear you :-(

[Stephaniewatercolour]

Did you make the pages and cover? How did you bind it? So pretty, I have never done a mini

[1MissyPooh5]

What a touching tribute to your father. Awesome work of art.

[theresajacobs1]

What a BEAUTIFUL ALBUM!!! Thank you so much for sharing...truly inspiring!

[mskimlouise]

Loved it! Thank you for sharing.

[Marticaluv11]

This is awesome.....

[priddysillygirls]

I'm watching this again & really love the envelope w/the scanned baby book inside! What a brilliant idea! Can you give a tutorial on or measurements on how you made the envelope or if it's store bought & maybe the size of the scanned images? My hubby is USAF & that would be a great way to save his promotion certificate/letters, etc.!

[ZScraper]

Thank you for doing this beautiful album. My Dad passed away in 81 and I miss him dearly. I would love to do one of these for him too and you have given me plenty of inpiration....as always!

[PurpleLionPaper]

I have done a journal like this and it is wonderful ... love some of the pages you did ... great ideas .. thank you. Purple Lion Paper

[Vikkles2006]

Hiya. This has inspired me to make an album for my dad for his birthday this year. I will make it about his Mum and his family. His Mum died in the late 90's and I thought t would be a nice album for me to make for him. I am new to mini albums but have made 3 in the space of as many weeks so I think it is fair to say I'm hooked. Yours was the first video I watched on youtube and I was amazed, you are so talented. XXVikkiXX

[hairdebi]

I would love to see a tutorial on how you did the waterfall page with your father in the suits

[jivamom]

This is incredible! I also have lots of photos from my dad's life and have been unsure what to do with them...I think you just answered my question. What a wonderful keepsake. You are very talented. Thanks.

[txlavenderlady]

My Dad passed away 6 years ago and we just discovered a box of photos that will be great for this as maybe a gift for my Mom and my brother in the future.

Great job!

Beth from Texas Hill Country

[sarah24sza]

This album that you made was both beautiful and amazing which i'm sure are feelings you get when you think of the person your Dad was so I think you should be very proud of yourself for a job well done and what a wonderful thing to share with your kids

[suzieboo100]

This has to be one of the nicest albums I have ever seen, it is just stunning!!!!

I adore everythiing about it. You have totally inspired me.

I would dearly love to make one similar for my Dad. Thank you so much for sharing. Each time I watch I see something new and wonderful. I think your Dad would be truely proud of you, it is simply wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing. Suzie xxxxxx :)

[deelee01]

Just love it! Totally same style that I love.  Good job!

[IowaButtercup]

would you be willing to make a kit from the album? I would want one

[TanzSam]

Wow - this is gorgeous - TFS

I had to laugh when you said quote "generations have lived without computers and video games - they were horrified." I had a conversion with my son just yesterday and he was horrified too and he laughs at the games we played (pacman, king kong) - oh to be young....

I love you videos - and you have inspiriated so many of my projects.

[staybeautiful84]

what a gorgeous treasure! I love how you incorporated chipboard and acrylic!

[scrapbookcreations]

Very beautiful... I would be balling through the whole video... You did awesome for your first time doing a mini!!

[dizzyrus1001]

wow you had me in tears this book is so amazing and im sure your dad is looking down on you and is amazed on what work you have done so the whole family can now see what a great man he was even those who sadly would not get to meet him will know him your family must be made up with life book thank you so much for sharing such a touching book xxx

[Dix994]

This is sweet. I'm not a big fan of these albums, and like alot of people, inwardly groan when someone hands me one to look at....but for this reason, to honor your dad, it is very nice.

[qwiltingal]

I love to see the photos in the finished product! Very nice.

[desp01naki]

Great work!!!!

[jezebelpntshell]

this album is incredible! simply beautiful :)

[Spenderellaa]

This is lovely, and I appreciate being able to watch this video without you going on and on and on! you didn't explain every single detail you summed it up nicely and it wasn't a big fat waste of my time. I wish all videos were as lovely! Great album!

[TheScrappylady]

Thank you so much for sharing this album. This is something you and your family will treasure for years. It is gorgeous. It has given me several ideas for an album I'd like to do.

[speckalou]

OMG..... I can't believe I just found this........... gorgeous!!!! I'm astounded that this is your first album.. it's honestly the BEST mini I've seen!!

What I found most enjoyable was to hear you explain your mini without the usual name dropping..

I'll definitely be checkin' out more from you .. TFS!

[speckalou]

@speckalou NM..Totally a name dropper now:(

[rinagalit]

great job for your first album...really awesome job

[cheyenne2996]

[Oneofhis2]

What a wonderful tribute album!

[1tinac]

thank you for sharing this.

[jndexotics]

ummm wow.. someday I hope to make things this beautiful

[sunflwer1111]

This is such a beautiful album and a lovely video. I found myself wiping away tears. I get those warm feelings when I work on pieces with my granny in them. My kids are always telling me, "I get that when you die." I've made so many things, I don't think they will have to fight over them. These are treasures we make for ourselves, but they will be treasured for many generations to come.

[toobomine]

sound totally sucks

[Janelljos]

You did such a great job!!! He is going to love this!!

[janellie53]
