If you make your album only viewable for specific people.. Can they see that the album you just created is only viewable to them?

No, they cannot. Unless you tell them. ;)

How do you hide a photo album from certain people, without hiding your whole wall? Every person that I blocked from one of my photo albums is now blocked from my wall. Any help would be appreciated!

You just have to follow the steps from above Joe. If you hide a specific album to a friend, he will not be blocked from your wall unless you HAVE BLOCKED him to view your wall. Please double check your settings Joe.
