Another 12 x 12 paper mini

 Hello Friends!

  Hope you liked the last mini tutorial! A while back I made a similair one for my niece's birthday. It was also made from 1 sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock, but it was smaller and had more pockets. It was her 21st birthday, so I made it into a little cocktail recipe book using tags as the recipe cards. I kept it really simple and it was easy to put together.
These could be a really fun project for a little girls birthday party....you could have the 12 x 12 cut and scored and they could make the little album as their party favor....it would also be a simple, fun girls night out, crop project. Great little gift album! Anything can go in the pockets....money, gift cards, tea bags, coffe packs, gum, small sheets of stickers, small clear stamps.........
I'd love to hear your ideas for filling these little pockets, so feel free to share in the comments section. Thanks for taking a peek...the video can be found here http://youtu.be/rq-EVfvApw4

1 sheet of 12 x 12 paper mini album

Hello Friends!
 I've just done a new video showing how to make this adorable little mini......out of 1 sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock!!! I haven't finished mine...just threw some tags and things that where on my desk in it....when I get it done I'll post more pics.

 It's super easy and would make a really great gift album. Or you could make a bunch of cards, fill this little mini up and give it as a gift.....fill it with cocoa and coffe packs...gum...candy, tea....boy do i have a ton of ideas for this!!
 Anyway, go check out the video if you have a minute...   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_geyOZiezB8

"Charm Bracelet" mini chipboard album

  Hi Friends! I wanted to share with you a little mini that I'm calling a "Charm Bracelet" chipboard mini. All my pages are a different shape, just like the charms on a bracelet. I thought these would make really great gifts for your Moms, Grandma's and Friends. The idea is that you can make a couple of pages and present it to the recipient, then, on holidays, birthdays or just because, you can make another page for them to add to their album....just like a charm bracelet! Think of how detailed and elaborate you can make each page! Who wouldn't love being presented with a beautiful piece of art on special occasions? So, here's my sample, the chipboard pieces can be purchased in my Zibbet store if you are interested.     http://www.zibbet.com/shabbybeautiful

You can view a video of this album Here:  http://youtu.be/j_hV_h1zMdY 






Hint: with an album like this you can be very creative, you can off set the pictures so they hang over the edge of the pages etc




I love these little chipboard pieces...they really look like little charms





The tag acts as a pocket, the little rose card is removable and opens up so pictures or journaling can be added

The butterfly is stamped, colored with Spectrum Noir markers (available in my Zibbet store) and then glittered with stickles
