How To Make Mini Album Made from Recycled Cards

Aly Dosdall used pre-printed boxed greeting cards to create an easy mini album. She punched down the side of the cards to use as base pages and added discs for the binding. She got creative on several of the pages creating pockets, flaps and vellum overlays for lots of added interest.

Recycled Easter Cards Mini Album

DIY Recycled Christmas Photo Display

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.
