Nature Walk Mini Album and Walk Thru Video

I am back! I know it has been awhile but I am finally getting my mojo back and getting back into scrapbooking, card making and paper crafting. For those who don't know I had shoulder replacement surgery on my right shoulder (my dominant arm) in December. This makes me now with both shoulders having been replaced. This time it took me a little longer to get up to crafting. But I finally did and will be sharing with you my recent work over the coming days and weeks!

One of the first things I did is this mini album project. My wonderful husband gifted me a subscription to Your Book of Memories for my birthday/Mother's Day. I have long been inspired by Frances Long and the mini album projects through the classes on their website. I was thrilled to receive this gift and there are so many projects to choose from! I decided to make a mini album as a gift for Mike using the Kindful Mini Album class directions. I am so excited with how this came out!

You can see the pages of the mini album in the following pictures. I have also included a walk thru video at the end of this post.

I hope you like this paper crafting project. Thanks for stopping by!

Best Friends Mini Album Project and Process Video

My oldest had their best friend visit this past September and they had such a great time together. I wanted to create a mini album for each of them as a gift to record the memories from their time together. I created this simple mini album for each of them. This was a simple design mini album and measures 6" x 6" with a spine that is 1 3/4" wide. There is a strap with a magnet to keep the album closed. There are 10 pages in total in the album and holds 21 photos. There are also pockets on the inside of the front and back covers for memorabilia along with some tags for journaling their memories together.

You can see the pages of the mini album in the following pictures. I have also included a walkthru video along with my process video at the end of this post.

I used the a fall paper collection I found along with medium weight chipboard and medium and heavy weight kraft cardstock to create this mini album project. You can find a PDF with the supplies list and cutlist by following this link - Supplies and Cutlist.

For this project I did a process video which walks you through creating the base album along with decorating the pages. You can see this video on my YouTube Channel.

This is my most ambitious mini album project yet. This December Memories Mini Album is meant to help you record your photos and memories from each day December 1st through the 25th. This gate-fold style album measures 9" x 9" with a depth of 1 3/4". It holds up to 42 photos and has places for hidden photos and journaling.

I used the Traditions of Christmas Suite from Stampin' Up along with medium weight chipboard and medium and heavy weight black cardstock to create this mini album project. You can find a PDF with the supplies list and cutlist by following this link - Supplies and Cutlist.

I did two process videos for the creation of the album. Part 1 walks you through the cutting of the pieces for the base, flaps, pockets, and other elements of this project. Part 2 walks you through assembling the album basse, adding pages, and elements. I did not do a video for decorating the album but did include the decorative elements in the Supplies and Cutlist file. You can watch each of these videos on my Youtube Channel.

I hope you like this paper crafting project. Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Fall Folio Mini Album and Process Videos

I have been on a roll recently with inspiration for creating mini albums. This Happy Fall mini album is a folio style album. There are no album pages - all of the elements are on the left and right side of the folio when opened. This album is 6 5/8" x 9 1/4" and holds up to 23 photos. A great mini album for photos of this season!
