Christmas Mini Album | Simple Stories | Merry & Bright Collection

Hey there,
Sharing another quick mini. This Mini is 5 1/2x5 1/2 with a 1in spine. I used SS’s Merry & Bright collection. The signature pages measure 5 1/4x5 1/4. To get the signature I had a 10 1/2 x 10 1/2 piece of paper and scored at 5 1/4 on ea side then cut up to middle score line on 1 side.

I wanted to give a special thank you to Ginger from My Sisters Scrapper. Ginger is how I got started making these albums and who supported me starting my own YT. Im so thankful for all the fun times we had when taking her class, her enabling me to buy more crafty supplies when we would be at RWS at the same time shopping, n the crafty moments at Robins house. I’m also thankful that we still get to have part of you here with us through your videos. I sure am going to miss you Ginger 😢♥️💋.

I thought it would be nice, as a tribute to Ginger, to say below either what was your first project that you made of hers or your favorite project-which Is so hard to choose.

My 1st project of Gingers that I made- G45’s Good ‘Ol sport waterfall folio:

My favorite are ALL her recipe Album folios:

Ginger was a and still is an icon in the scrapbooking/crafting community. So talented. I would say she was a paper engineer. I love all her videos so I’ll have to keep them locked in my YouTube library. She’ll definitely be missed!

Beautiful little album. I started making folios by watching Ginger. I have missed her so much. The crafting world and world in general lost a great person. Prayers for her family.

I am so glad you did this tribute to Ginger. I was blessed to take two classes from her. She took the time to personally sit down with me and help me put the pages on my spine. Then the next class she came over and personally did a waterfall with me! Every book made in the past and every book I make in the future has a piece of Ginger's heart and enthusiasm in it. Miss her so much.

Oh no that’s the first I’ve heard about Ginger she really was a beautiful person and a great artist.

Oh wow! I got into album making because of Ginger. I have saved so many of her video tutorials. My first album I think was the mini bundle of joy waterfall portfolio. So sad to hear about Ginger’s passing. RIP Ginger and know you touched so many people and helped to make this world a more beautiful place

The crafting world lost an amazing and talented soul with the loss of Ginger. She will live on with her videos we can all go back to. So incredibly sad of her passing. I’ve been watching her videos for years and honestly can’t pick a favorite, but loved all her projects. Ginger opened the doors to so many projects and tutorials….her creativity was amazing. ❤️❤️❤️

[annachu-macdonald]

oh no! i never met her but i’ve seen all her videos. i don’t know if there was ever a project i didn’t like; everything she made was beautiful!

[maddiescreations]

Ginger was truly an ARTIST! I've loved her creative style forever!

[evelyngotay]

Thanks for sharing the news about Mrs Ginger. Prayers for her family and she will be miss

[Kathycamps]

It broke my heart to hear of her passing. Didn’t get a chance to meet her but she definitely kicked off my love for making mini albums and I bing watched so many of her tutorials as well. What a blessing it was to have her in the crafting community. Goodness I can’t even remember what would be my favorite of hers as I loved them all, however she had this horizontal 4x6 or 6x4 album that I just loved but all of her doodle bug projects were awesome!! 🥰

[kathycarter]

Prayers for her family. 🙏 I'm totally shocked. She was so inspiring. I loved her video she made it so easy to learn. She will be so missed by us all.

[marianneoehrli]

Hello, comment allez-vous ? Trop mignon le petit renne, très joli petit album ❤ ! Merci beaucoup et à bientôt, bye bye 😘

[kimj]

There is so much to say about Ginger. She was the one who taught me to make albums through all her tutorials. I started following her about 9 years ago. I never had the chance to meet her in person but you can tell she was so much fun. She will forever be missed. I also watched her videos this weekend just to hear her voice. ❤️❤️

[lorettarenz]

So sorry to hear of Ginger's passing. I never had the chance to meet her but whenever I needed inspiration I always turned to her channel. I'm not sure there will be another like her in the world of mini album crafting. She will be greatly missed.

That is so sad to hear about the loss of Ginger! I started learning how to make albums when COVID shut down started a year ago March. Ginger was the first artist I binged with and have made many albums. She mentioned you on some videos that is how I found you. You are amazing! I have made many albums watching you and your videos. Please know you are amazing and sell yourself a bit short sometimes. How do you do them everyday and work! Thank you for the many posts to keep us inspired.

[Marilyn]

Ginger was one of the first videos I watch on making mini albums. I also made one of my first mini albums based on one of her videos! Never met her in person but loved her videos.

[anitaholmes]

OMG....seriously!!!! That is devastating news! I knew she was sick ....my heart hurts! I only knew her from her channel, been following her for years, back in the day when she was making paper bag minis and that was the first tutorial of hers that I made! She comforted me when my son was killed and became a friend. My heart is breaking! I will forever miss that sweet, sweet friend and her amazing talent! Thanks for sharing Tiffany, so sorry, I wanted to also say to you that your mini is wonderful.

[joannedejong]

So sorry to hear about Ginger. She also inspired me sooo much!

[dclaw]

I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I just started to watch and listen to her YouTube channel.

[amymatthews]

I am so sad to hear about Ginger. My first ever mini album was based on one of her tutorials. She had a way of teaching that made you believe you could do it. I binge watched every video she made and still go back and see things I missed the first time. She was so gifted and will be missed not only for her talent but for who she was as a person. Such a blessing to all she met/inspired.
