I purchased 2 Enchanted Princess mini album kits and 2 Disney Simple Stories mini Album kits from the Santa Clara Expo. I was told the pictures and instructions were downloadable from the Simple Stories website. I assumed they represented Simple Stories since all the kits were Simple Stories based. I called Simple Stories and searched the website and could not find the instructions. By any chance, did anyone get the instructions? Or if someone knows the vendors name? I paid cash so no credit card trail.
thanks in advance for any help!

Did you see this Enchanted Mini Book ? There's probably one for Say Cheese also. It's under Mini Albums on their blog. They've put these out lately when they come out with a new line. I really like what their creative team does with all of the cute embellishments they have. Very inspiring. |

Not sure if this is what you're after, but Pinecone Press had some cute mini books made with the Simple Stories line. My friend bought a disney princess purse one from them. Pinecone Press |

Try Scrapbook.com. They have free classes for a Simple Stories Enchanted mini album and an album for the Say Cheese line.

Can you go to the expo website? They usually have a list of vendors. Maybe you'll recognize the name.

Can you post a picture of the kit? I am going to the Denver Expo on Friday. I can look for it. I know there are different vendors at each expo, but I can look.

I saw the Enchanted album on the website, but the one I bought is a 4x6 chipboard mini album. The papers are all cut, I just have idea how to use them.
I will post pictures tonight when I get home from work of the kits. Thank you so much for offering to look for me 950nancy! So appreciated.

The base of the Enchanted album is 4x6 and folds out to about 6 sections. Not like anything pictured on the Simple Stories website. The Disney Album has a base of a 6 x 10 black chipboard album that is bound with wires. Also in the album they have about 1o pages with different pre-folds and looks like they attaché somewhere in the book.
I talked with someone from Simple Stories and they have never seen these albums and have nothing on the website like them. I took pictures, but I cannot figure out how to upload. I loaded the pictures to a Flicker account, but then the url name stopped me! The finished books were adorable at the Expo. I should have looked up the directions right there before I purchased them. Now I think it was kind of fishy they didn't even have a picture with the website link on it.

I went to the expo's website - there's a project list - maybe this will help as there's several chipboard albums listed on there. Scrapbook Expo 2015 workshopsAlso there's a list of exhibitors so maybe you'll recognize the name of the seller. HTH |

How frustrating! I am going to the Expo in Ontario in a couple of weeks, so I'll keep a look out also. That Paisley and Polkadots album on the SS blog is seriously cute, too! I love this paper line. Makes me wish I still had a little princess.  |

I found this website with enchented albums, disney albums both with tutorials and they were at the SC Expo. It looks promising. www.craftandeverythingelse.net/tutorials/The only other enchanted album that comes close (close in size) is scrapbook.com, but it involves some pocket pages. |

Oooh, I took a peek - cute album! And the Say Cheese one looks like it fits the OP's description. Nice detective work!  |

I am just giddy with excitement and jumping up and down.... Those are my albums. Thank you so much Houston 249 What a fabulous link. I searched and searched and never found it. That is amazing. I knew if anyone could do it, a Pea could help me. Thanks to everyone again....

I am so glad that I found the right link for you. Honestly I could not have done it without the other links of the Santa Clara show guides and workshop links the other peas posted in this thread. Seriously I tried to find those links and could not. Without them I would not have found it.
I wanted to say those are extremly cute albums and very easy on the pocketbook. I did not see them at the Mesa Expo but I will be looking for them next year for sure.
