Several Types of Handmade Mini Albums


TOILET PAPER ROLL MINI ALBUMS:





For the 2 Toilet Paper Roll Albums above, I took 4 empty toilet paper rolls and flattened them.  I used pattern paper to wrap around the rolls.  On one end I used my Crop-A-Dile to punch holes and then insert eyelets.  Two binding rings were then inserted through the eyelets to hold the mini album together.  The other end of the roll was left open so you could insert a tag.  I used Cricut cartridge PLANTIN SCHOOLBOOK to cut the tags and added some ribbon to the top of each one.  These tags can be used for photos or journaling.  My sister picked these up when she came over the other day and "ooooo-ed" and "ahhhhh-ed" over them.  She couldn't believe it when I told her they were made from empty toilet paper rolls. LOL

POCKET PAGES LET IT SNOW MINI ALBUM:








This Mini Album was so fun to make!  Each page is actually one sheet of 12"x12" pattern paper folded creatively to create 3 pockets per page - 1 on front, 1 on back, and 1 at the top.  No, this is NOT my idea.  

PAPER BAG MINI ALBUM:











This is my FAVORITE Paper Bag Mini Album I've ever made!!!   All the papers and embellishments in the mini album are from K & Company.  Awesomeness!  We plan on using this one to hold all our memorabilia from our Texas life while we are here for the next several months.

Whew!  That was a lot of pictures!  

Thanks for stopping by!  I'm having fun!  Aren't you?!!??
