At the time I still wasn't sure I was getting a 365 kit so I had ordered an American Crafts 3 ring binder & had plans to make my own 365 kit just in case. Luckily I hadn't gotten far on the 365 album when Laura told me that mine was on it's way. So now I had an extra album hanging around.
Not sure when the idea hit me exactly but I had one of those "A-HA!" moments.
I did a little online purchase, when that came in I collected all my wallet pics, made some journaling cards & put it all together & voila! Here is my solution to all the extra wallet pics! This will sit in the family room & people can flip through it & read what they're about on the back.
Couldn't resist doing the cover like Nichol's. So easy & fun & I get to use up some stash!!
It's kinda hard to see the pages but you might be able to click on them to back them bigger. I used these for the page protectors.
This is what the journaling cards look like. Just used various colors of cardstock I had cut them down to size, then stamped them with my Autum Leaves stamp.

The journaling basically tells who, what, where & when, very simple & to the point.
I love how this album came together. My girls love to flip through it & see how they've grown through the years.

I love this idea Sara! What a way to put those pics together and the journaling on the back. Love it! The cover came out nice too. Everytime I go to Hobby Lobby I pick up ones of those Modern albums when their 50% off-I love those.
I believe you shared those journaling cards recently, right?
THIS IS SOOOOO COOL! Thanks for sharing. :)
i remember when you were stamping all of these cards! fun to see what you did with it. love the idea of using lots of wallet sized photos ... i'm all about the smaller sized pics lately. and of course, gorgeous album cover ... i think that's one of my favorite things by nichol!
