This mini album using Cocoa Daisy's Merry & Bright Project Kit is 4 x 6. It can be a simple album with just 4 x 6 photos or a little more complex with pages, titles, etc. I am going to show you how to create this simple cover with just a dab of paint, some patterned paper, and a few layered stickers on top a cool "vintage tag."
I painted the interior of the pages because the paper tape in the merry & bright kit are a bit translucent. 
Next i added the My Mind's Eye paper and grabbed the paper tape. it was the right pop of color. 
I tried each paper tape until i settled on the striped one. The tape hasn't been simply folded over the edge yet. I wasn't too worried about how the tape looked on the back because i had a plan. 
Once the front was done, i flipped it over & covered up the edging tape with the polka dots. Honestly at this point i wasn't sure if i was going to use the text or the polka dots for my cover both were so pretty. 
the vintage tag was created with the simple tags that came in the kit. I am a huge fan of walnut ink. I have walnut ink crystals from 2002. Its one of those oldies but goodies. Simply spritz the tag & let it dry. Don't have walnut ink? Try stamping some distress inks on wax paper or a craft mat and spray it with water. Then dip the tag into the wet concoction. 
Next crumple up the tag and then open it up. Hit those edges & ridges with some more brown ink. Now you have a vintage looking tag. 
Now just layer the bits & pieces together. Try popping up a sticker to give the cover a focal point. Leave room for the title.
Merry Love
