Hi, it's Sandy sharing a gift I made for Liz. It's a mini-book created from one piece of A4 size paper. The accordian-folds in the spine gives the pages good separation so you can include chucky embellishments like chipboard and buttons.
Tutorial :
divide your paper into 16 rectangles.
cut along the solid lines and crease on the dotted ones
fold according to the photos
glue together the accordian folds of the spine
Hope you like this fun, little project idea and be inspired to try your hand at making one. It's perfectly sized to slip into those Christmas stockings. This is my final Christmas project but the other designers will be posting their projects for the rest of the week.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this...I just finished a version of this, recycling the paper that wrapping paper is rolled around. I used up all of the wrapping paper and was surprised to find the paper instead of a tube, and knew this was the project to make with it. Thank you for sharing, and here is a link to my book using your tutorial. Have a wonderful New Year! http://creativeoperation.blogspot.com/2012/01/recycled-mini-album.html Michelle
