Hello paper crafting friends! Have you had a case where a long lasting idea meets a perfect partner and finally becomes a project? That’s what happened when the idea of a denim fabric cover and the “Passport” collection collaborated into a perfect little mini book! Anya here today, and I am thrilled to share this travel book with you!
To create this book, I started with the cover. This book measures about 6x7” and it is 1.75” in thickness. I used heavy cardstock for the cover that was covered with a piece of denim and a strip of white faux leather.
I decorated the front with pieces of paper and ephemera that were stitched down to keep them in place and added stickers and chipboard pieces on top. Before finishing the inside of the album, I also added a few brads to the cover.
All the inside pages were made of White Linen Cardstock by Carta Bella. This cardstock is pretty heavy and holds the pages of the album nicely.
This mini book was made entirely from the “Passport” collection set. I covered each page spread with coordinating pieces of patterned paper and added die cut frames for the photos to be added later.
Also, I’ve added an interactive element to every spread, like a folding page or a pocket for additional photos and journaling. This mini album holds at least 40 photos, mostly 3x4” size.
Products used to create this mini album:
“Passport” collection by Carta Bella
