Itty Bitty Accordion Mini Album by DT Kriti

Namaste Friends!!

This is Kriti and today I'll inspire you all with a cute little itty bitty mini album.

I love making these kinds of mini albums. Making your own mini albums gives you such a sense of accomplishment. This mini album can be easily completed in an hour or so and this can be a perfect last minute gift. Record special life moments in these tiny books that a loved one will treasure forever. 

These are so fun to make that you will want to give them to everyone you know.

So, here is the project:

Some more pictures:

Size of this album is 3-1/4" x 3-1/4".

Here's a brief on how to make it:

Take a cardstock of size 9" x 3-1/4". Score it at 3-1/4", 3-3/4", 7", 7-1/2" on the 9" side. This will be the cover.

Now take two cardstocks of size 12" x 3". Score both of them at 3", 6", and 9" on the 12" side and join them at the end pages so that they make a complete accordion. (If u want to add more photos you can attach more pages accordingly).

Now for the belly band, take a cardstock of size 1" x 8-1/2". Score it at 3-1/4", 3-7/8", 7-1/8" and 7-3/4 on the 8- 1/2" side.

Mat them with your choice of scrapbook paper. And your cute little itty bitty mini album is ready.

Have made Accordion mini album which would be great way to give as a gift to your loved ones and beautiful way to store your memories. It's simple and cute to make. So I've made one for my husband with me and my son's pictures.

Let's get started!!

To start with i cut down 4*4 size Papericous sigma cardstock, I must say it's an amazing cardstock for colors and stamping and randomly colored it with different distress inks and some photo transperent inks. 

 

While assembling i used vellum as hinge between two pages ,took hinge of 2"×1.5" vellum before sticking panels together placed velum and stuck. Finally for embellishment i stamped Mudra butterfly stamp with different colors distress inks and cut down some frame from Papericous often paper collection and assembled my mini album
