I've made several of these minis. They're so easy and so much fun to make. I've given a few as gifts and they've been very well received. Thank you so much for sharing your talent so generously.
+Lynn Wayne You sent me a comment on my "Contact Me" today on my blog, but didn't give me your e-mail address to contact you. Please e-mail me at webofcreativity@gmail.com so I can help you. Thanks.
My grandson is going to his first prom. I am going to use your tutorial to make his girlfriend an album for pictures of the special night. Thank you so much for generously giving us this great tutorial!!
I finished making the album last evening. I think scoring the cover 2 times meets my needs. I plan to add the photos to complete the project and gift it to my brother for his birthday. Thank you for sharing your creativity.
Awesome tutorial, thank you for sharing your talents with us.... I can not wait to make these for Christmas gifts.... Your tutorial was easy to follow and understand.. I hope to see more of your videos and learn more from you... thank you again!
You are awesome! I loved your tutorial, the instructions are so good and it is so easy to follow! Loved, loved it. Thank you so much for sharing your time and talent with us. Happy paper crafting. Sandy
Thank you for the videos they are very helpful. On most of the videos I have watched the lighting makes it hard to see up close...your shadow is over your project. Not sure if you are using a light but that might help or maybe film from the other direction so you shadow isn't over your project. Again thank you for great tutorials!!
I just started this hobby, will try to make one. I like 4 by 6, it’s most photos size. How thick is your card stock base. I used 65 # but when I glue them they start getting wrinkles. Thanks
Hi have been looking for mini albums to get some insperation and i liked this one it looks easy. i was just wondering is this accordion binding the same binding that Kathy Orta K. Taught? thanks
+Janell Perez This is a very popular album of mine because it is super easy to make and pretty fast. There is technically no binding to this album. The accordion pages are attached by a 1/2" tab. This is not Kathy's accordion binding, which has sections to attach pages too. My album is one continuous page connected by one 1/2" tab. I do not know if any of Kathy's albums are attached like this.
Wonderful! I have purchased the same paper but I have one question.........why you score the chipboard 3 times? To make the spine isn't enough with 2. Tanks.
+Lupe Valdez The belly band is Tim Holtz Elastic Loop and you can get those at Michaels, Joanns, etc. The Magnets are Basic Grey (my favorite) are online and you can get them at www.joann.com, www.walmart.com, and www.amazon.com.
Love it. Video was too long though. We don't need to see you ink all of the pages. You could fast forward through that. But I love your idea and skill. I'm making one tonight. Thanks!
+iamgemskii ideas It is an ink applicator with foam pads. You can get them at any box store like Joanns or Michaels or your local scrapbook store. The applicator is for distress ink or any kind of ink pad.
+dgmlmax It's called Paper Accents Light Weight Chipboard and there are several online scrap stores like www.scrapadabadoo.com or www.createforless.com that carry it.
Again love the album but didn't need to watch you mat every piece of the accordion pages. One or 2 would do. Great tutorial though and well explained. Thanks

I am looking for the written directions on your blog but cannot find them. Could you possibly provide a link to the exact project? Many thanks!

Awesome tutorial
Thank you very much Melissa. 😉😍

I like 80lbs or heavier for page construction. I like Hobby Lobby's heavy weight cardstock which is 80lbs, but is limited in color choices.
I LOVE it!!! And FREE...... So refreshing!!

Christina Nilsson I score it three times for flexibility. I don't see why you can't score it 2 times. Give it try.
+Web of Creativity Thank you for your answer. Look forward to watch more of your tutorials which are so easy to follow and inspiring.
Awesome tutorial...may I ask where you purchase the magnets and belly bands from? TFS 😉
+Lupe Valdez The belly band is Tim Holtz Elastic Loop and you can get those at Michaels, Joanns, etc. The Magnets are Basic Grey (my favorite) are online and you can get them at www.joann.com, www.walmart.com, and www.amazon.com.

Where did you buy your chip board?
Hi! What do you call that thing you use to brush the distress stain? I have the distress stain but I don't have that brush. Thanks! :)
+iamgemskii ideas It is an ink applicator with foam pads. You can get them at any box store like Joanns or Michaels or your local scrapbook store. The applicator is for distress ink or any kind of ink pad.
Thanks! :)
Great mini. Where do you get your light weight chipboard from?
