For my project, I decided to make an Accordion Mini Album.  This is a very easy album to make.  You do not need anything special really except your imagination and mojo.

I used a Cricut for my cuts, but you can decorate an album like this any way you like.

• Start off with 2 pieces of  8 1/2" x 11" cardstock.
• Cut each piece in half @5 1/2" so that you have four pieces of cardstock measuring 8 1/2" x 5 1/2".
• Score each piece in the middle at 4 1/4".  Fold all pieces and give good creases.
• Unfold each piece.
• You will adhere the pieces together to form an accordion fold or "mountain and valley". 
• For example, half of one piece will overlap half of the added adhered piece entirely.
• You can add pattern paper, pockets, tags, ribbons, flowers.... anything you want to decorate your mini album!

Here is Halloween Album #1

And here is a second one I made with the same theme:

I used the Cricut to make the die cuts and tags, and this was so fun to make!
