TUTORIAL - Accordion-Folded Mini Photo Album

Image
 HELLO EVERYBODY! Exciting news—the first tutorial of 2026 is live!  Pop over to my YouTube channel and let's create together!    I will guide you step by step in making the blank album base for that gorgeous accordion-folded photo album I showed you yesterday. I had originally planned to add this project to the Eleventh-Hour Xmas Gifts series for 2025. I created this holiday series to share simple, quick ideas for making blank album bases. Therefore, this project is also easy and enjoyable. It is super beginner-friendly, totally relaxing, and honestly just pure crafting joy.         So grab your supplies, clear some time this weekend if you can, and come create with me! It'll be so much fun! 💕 Have a fantastic Friday evening!   CHEERS! *** If you are interested in buying the album, please visit my Etsy online store.

HELLO EVERYBODY! I'm excited to share my recent Halloween project —an adorable accordion-fold mini photo album I just made!  I can't wait for you to see it! I decorated the album with my Halloween paper collection, Spectral Touch. The album measures 21cm x 14cm (8.3in x 5.5in) and can hold approximately 50 to 70 photos, depending on how they are arranged. It is designed for pictures sized 10cm x 15cm (3.9in x 5.9in), 9cm x 13cm (3.5in x 5.1in), or smaller. There are so many fun ways to store your photos in the album! You can slide them into pockets or attach them to flaps, booklets, waterfalls, or photo mats. Plus, you'll find four tags and eight cards, perfect for jotting down notes and memories.    If you're interested in more details, I invite you to visit my YouTube channel, where a short album presentation is available now.  I hope you like it!

TUTORIAL - PART II - Decorating the cover

Image
HELLO EVERYBODY!  The second part of an accordion-shaped mini photo album tutorial is now available on my YouTube channel. Last week, we focused on decorating the inside of the album.  In this part, we will decorate the cover.     As I explained in the first part of the tutorial, the front cover decoration is removable, and I did it on purpose. When viewing or filling the album with photos, the cover decoration may be damaged. However, once it is removed, this risk disappears, and the beautiful decoration of the cover can please the eye for a long time.       So, take the next step and enjoy the second part of the tutorial!   PART II      A list of products used in this tutorial:  - paper set from the "Rainbow Meadow" collection by MS Craftshop, 20.3cm x 20.3cm (8" x 8")  - extras set the "Rainbow Meadow" collection by MS Craftshop  - 250g white paper  - banner die cuts (AliExpress)  - 1cm neodymium magnets...

 HELLO EVERYBODY! I invite you to the first part of the accordion-shaped mini photo album tutorial.  For this project, we will not be starting the album from scratch. Instead, we will be using a pre-made accordion-shaped base from ECO Scrapbooking. The album dimensions are 14.5cm x 19.5cm and can hold up to eight photos, each measuring 10cm x 10cm.   I divided the tutorial into two parts. In the first part, we will focus on the inside decorations and show you how to arrange pictures of different sizes. In the second part, we will decorate the cover, which will appear on my YouTube channel in a week.

 HELLO EVERYBODY! Creating photo albums is a wonderful way to cherish memories. However, the heart of these albums is the collection of photos that make them unique and meaningful. Imagine you balance showcasing photos and highlighting the beauty of the paper decorating the album. In that case, your album will become a precious keepsake for many years.   I recently created an accordion-shaped mini photo album that I'm excited to share with you.      It is incredible to see how it transforms once you add pictures!*     I invite you to a tutorial series on my YouTube channel, with the first part coming this Monday. The album is small and designed to hold only eight photos. Still, I will be showing you how to arrange pictures of different sizes to create a unique gift for someone special or a memorable keepsake for yourself.      The papers and extras I used to decorate the album come from my new "Rainbow Meadow" collection.
