Pemberley Mini Album

I love mini albums.  I made another envelope accordian album of the best snapshots from Jess & Neal's wedding using CTMH's Pemberley workshop on the go.

Here's the first cover flap opened.

And with both flaps open, exposing the envelope/accordion center.

A better shot of the accordion feature.  I used hearts as tabs on all the inserts.

And lastly, a shot of the inserts removed from the accordion, all ready for some journaling.

Footloose Mini Accordian Album

Back to crafting!  I've been wanting to try this mini accordion album for a few months.  I got the idea/pattern from a friend, Shari, who I met at a crop in Colfax.  I used CTMH Footloose papers and coordinating embellishments.

You can tell from this angle the album is about a half inch thick.

When you open the trifold, the album looks like this, with spots for pictures on each flap.  I didn't go over-the-top beach themed with this one, just a a nice bright summery theme.

Finally, this photo shows the accordion feature.  The center is made from envelopes adhered together to form lots of little pockets.  For this book, I added just a piece of cardstock with a ribbon pull to each pull-out.  I'm working on a step-by-step tutorial for this type of album, so check back!
