It isn't my style but wow! You can tell a ton of effort went into it. I could never do it!

I don't think you're crazy at all. I have those papers and would love to make it if I weren't in the middle of renovations and getting ready to move.

I am sure that if you have patience you will be able to do this. A couple of crafty ladies I know did a similar project last year, and finished theirs at a weekend crop--except for the photos, which they added later.
Me, not so much! I don't follow patterns well, and can't cut straight or glue straight, and--most importantly--I have NO patience, so I kind of avoid projects that require these skills & attitudes. |

You can do it! I have a friend that does a lot of those type of mini albums. Her work is gorgeous and once she broke it down for the rest of us we were able to do them too. Now I will never have her eye or skill, but she did show that we can do them too!

you can definitely do this!! I work on a lot of mini albums and it just a lot of measuring, cutting and layering papers over and over again. the key is precision so your layers line up.

I think I have seen that somewhere before. The papers and stuff aren't my style but I could definitely see why someone would want to make one. It looks kind of involved, but I don't think it would be difficult as long as you took your time on it and paid attention to the details. It would be equally nice no matter what papers were used. Go for it!

It looks like a Kathy Orta creation with the hidden hinge binding system. What do you see as questionable about it? It isn't my style, but I love to put those types of albums together. I just don't use them because I don't find them particularly conducive to actual photos --- but frankly, I don't really mind that if I enjoyed the construction process!

The paper isn't 'my' style.. I definitely would pick something different... maybe same company... the part that makes me hesitate is the measuring and lining up just right. I am only so patient..before I start slapping stuff together.. HAHA...
I don't have any of the spellbinders and again hesitate in getting those..although a friend has a bunch I am sure she would let me borrow...
Maybe it is a project for a retreat... maybe I will file it away and that is what I would work on. Instead of hauling my entire scrap room to a retreat I can just work on it. Ummmmmm..

Those G45 albums are so fun to look at. You could do it, just a little at a time.
