April 30, 2012 Update: a Tutorial to make this album is now available for $10.
We made this cute album at my class on Friday. It is such a cute album and can hold fourteen – 4 inch square photos, plus two or three larger photos. It takes about 2 and 1/2 hours to complete the basic album before you add the photos and embellishments. It is 5-3/4″ square.
I used a tutorial by Andrea Walford. Here is a link: Playful Petals Triple Flip Mini Scrapbook Album. The Scrappin’ Kit used in the tutorial was in the Summer Mini catalog. I followed her directions pretty closely. You can make 2 albums from one Scrappin’ Kit and Whisper White card stock.
I also made one with 8-1/2″ x 11″ card stock and 4 sheets of DSP from the Paper Stacks. I tweaked a few things on this one, just like I do when cooking. It is really fun!
I am thinking of giving some of these as Christmas Gifts with family pictures in them. I plan on putting pictures from our Germany trip in the Green one. I have at least downloaded them from my camera card and looked at them a couple of times.
I decided to go ahead and show you pictures of both albums. I think they turned out really well.

good work, carry on the great blog….
How do you attach the pages into the album? I love that it can be stored like a book. Great job.
I used a lot of sticky strip. I will be selling a tutorial album hopefully by the end of April or early May. I will put the information in in a Post and in The Creative Corner Store when it is ready.
Thank you. Will look forward to it.
