Hello Gang!
These tutorials always take more time than I think. Sorry about the delay...An hour and some change over my deadline of posting "today!" LOL!
The album shown is from one of Graphic 45's older paper collections, Communique. Love it!
Tomorrow I will share the Fashionista version of this album. But for today...
I present to you, the Policy Meets Tag Album...
You can Download Policy Meets Tag Mini album tutorial in pdf format here.
Once again, thank you for looking, following and commenting!
Jim

Love the album! So tell me when are you gonna start doing UStream classes'?
I hate how I get the email for a new post the day after the new post why does it do it like that oh well I get here in the end.

I have one complaint... I don't think you used enough pen nibs on the cover! lol, Just Kidding!! I love it!
Thanks so much for sharing your creative genius and going to the effort of sharing such wonderful tutorials! If you ever have a spare moment, I'd be extremely interested in a tutorial on how you photograph your projects. I can't seem to get right lighting and purchasing a photo tent only made my photos more grey. Grrr...
Thanks xo

Jim,You've done it again!! Your generosity is overwhelming. Thank you for the tutorial. I know it takes a tremendous amount of work to produce a well written tut with pictures. Everyone who downloads your tutorials is blessed by your creativeness and generous sharing.
Thank you!!!

Thanks Jim ... you are to generous. Another great tutorial. I’m wishing you good thoughts for joining the Graphic 45 team.

Jim, you are such a wonderful person. You are funny, giving, and just have a wonderful personality. I hope you know what a blessing You, (Kathy Orta and Laura) are to us crafters. For a long time I looked for something that was just for me to do besides taking care of my family, when I came across Mini Albums... I was hooked. You guys inspire me to craft with paper and I just love it! Thank you for sharing your work with us and for the tutorials (lots of work I'm sure). Your projects are spectacular, sincerely.

Jim this album is just the greatest. You have the most unique ideas and the talent to carry it through. Thanks for sharing! I will be wishing and hoping with you for the G45 team on March the 2nd. Can't wait, I'm so excited for you!!!

This is stunning. Such care to detail again. And I love the look and feel of it. Gorgeously dark and designer. Your collage of metal elements makes for a fantastic assemblage. In deep admiration of your talent sir. Pxx

JIm, you've done it again!!! Love this album. As much as I greatly appreciate you giving us the pattern, your work is so professional that I think you should charge for the pattern and DO USTREAM videos~ Thanks for sharing~
