A Fresh Air Mini Album

Η άνοιξη έχει μπεί για τα καλά και ετοιμαζόμαστε πια να γιορτάσουμε το Πάσχα: να φτιάξουμε χειροποίητα δώρα για τους αγαπημένους μας, διακοσμητικά για το σπίτι μας αλλά και το mini album το οποίο θα γεμίσουμε με τις φωτογραφίες απο τις γιορτινές μέρες με τους συγγενείς και φίλους μας!

Σήμερα λοιπόν θα σας παρουσιάσουμε ένα πολύ όμορφο άλμπουμ, απο την Aline Martins με την συλλογή Fresh Air της Simple Stories.

 

 

 Aline crafted a simple 5-fold spine, similar to an envelope!

Start by defining the size of your album and cut chipboard accordingly. Then cover it with paper. For a flawless finish, use bookbinding glue to adhere the paper to the chipboard.

For the closure, you can use magnets or a ribbon—both should be attached before adhering the cover paper. Adding a design to the flap was Aleene's excellent idea and she did it using a die-cutting machine.

 

 

Inside, she created a pocket to hold the mini album as well as some tags.

She bound the mini album with spiral binding—using the We R Memory Keepers Multi-Cinch.

The interior of the mini is quite simple, focusing on showcasing the amazing papers and embellishments from the collection!

 

 

 

 

She explains...

Before I started creating this mini album, I thought that I wanted it to be both cheerful and interactive, so that my nieces and nephews would enjoy flipping through it. I decided to make an album with spiral binding, which makes it easy for the pages to move and is also convenient for those cute little hands!

The collection features an amazing color palette and the embellishments are so fun, making the creation of the pages very easy and relaxing. I used a lot of dimensional stickers to highlight my favorite die cuts, almost all the stickers from the sticker pad, and of course, my favorite rub-ons!

This album, although small, can hold many photos, whether large or small. I prefer smaller photos, so I was able to fit 26 of them into this one!

Thank you for the inspiration, Aline!

A truly perfect mini for our favorite spring moments!
