Themes, layouts and inspirations
Here’s a clever idea for customizing the cover of a mini-album from Katie at Punk projects. She made that stained glass looking circle with a melted crayon technique! Plus did you know that such a thing as Paper Crafter crayons existed? I sure didn’t! Click here now to get all the details.
Mini albums are great little projects for using up scraps, trying out new products and experimenting with techniques and designs.
Andrea used the Fun Times collection from Simple Stories to create this fabulous mini Travel Tag album. She even found a cute tiny plastic suitcase to fit it inside of, decorating the outside with a few chipboard elements and a scalloped border.
The album itself has different siezd and shaped pages, some rectangle, some tag shaped, some with scalloped edges but all stitched around the edges. It’s held together at the top with a metal “O” ring.
The pages have 3″ x 2 1/2″ photos that are accented with metal buttons, vintage cameras, floral and map papers, chipboard embellishments, tabs, labels and travel related designs in fun retro color combinations.
She’s even included some fun interactive pages too for a really cool tiny but mighty album design.
