How to Make a Watermelon Shaped Mini Album

For Summer picnics, food festivals, gardening or trips to the farmer market this amazing Watermelon shaped album is the perfect place to keep all those warm, sunshiny memories. Teresa used the Sunshine on My Mind collection from Graphic 45 to create this cool mini album project. The cover looks just like a quartered melon with three layers and a sweet sentiment die cut tag tied with twine. The entire album is tied closed with wide red and white chevron ribbon.

Inside the pages are filled with tags, stickers, die cut photo mats, ribbon, frames, rub-ons and much more, all in red, pink, white and green with yummy fruits, pretty flowers and more sunny delights.

She’s sharing a process video on how to create this album along with lots of additional photos over on the Graphic 45 blog.

Niella used the Color Me Crafty collection from Doodlebug to create this adorable crafty themed mini album. The cover and each page are shaped like giant tickets and there’s a disc binding on the edges and fun dangling charm hanging on the spine. The cover has a cute stack of Polaroids accent and a layered scalloped border with button pattern paper.

Inside she used more crafty pattern papers, embellishments, stickers, cardstock, puffy words and more to designs wonderful pages that have lots of room for crafty photos and journaling.

There’s even a pocket to tuck in mementos and ephemera. I love the color scheme of this collection, it’s so bright and cheerful! This little album project is perfect for all your memories of going to scrapbooking classes, crops, conventions, retreats, hanging out crafting with friends or pics of your craft room.
