One sheet mini album
Covers created by cutting cardboard at 3 1/4" x 3 1/4", which was also covered with pattern paper. (Cover says dream but camera did not pick it up due to the glitter)
Please see the video for all the fun page elements. I think I'll be making for just in different colors and trying to sell them. What do you think?

Mini home made album
Hi all,
I watched Elsa Ustream class on replay and she made a cute little 4 x 4 mini album from a Splenda box and mini paper bags. Since my son finished off a large Pop Tart box - I used that as the cover/spine/back starting piece. (great re-purpose idea!) (Now I am looking at more boxes to save and make minis!!)
Here is a left side page element - I used the Stampin' Up petal punch and when you fold it a certain way it makes a heart pocket!
I had to make my own pages (as I did not have paper bags as Elsa used or perhaps envelopes) for the size of my album. I took a 12 x 9 3/4" piece of card stock - scored it at 4 3/4 and 9 1/2 to make the pages. The 1/4" tab has glued applied - I then folded it in half at the 6" point and there you go - I get the two pages, with two pockets as needed.
I copied her binding technique - but changed up the closure a little bit.
I punch a hole in the back cover and double thread the ribbon and then ties an office binder clip. (sorry I do not have a close up pic)
Here is the binding and the charms I made using Tom Holtz fragments. I added pearl beads and the clear facet beads to the dangled ribbon for a bit of fun!
The card stock is from American Crafts "a la carte" selections
Pocket with tag.
This is a shower gift form my nephew's fiance.
My next post has the you tube video - my first!
