Hello memory keeping friends! Anya is here today and I so happy to share with you an accordion style mini book I created with the amazing Believe in Magic collection by Carta Bella. I don't know about you, but I love to take ton's of pictures while being on vacation! And is there a better way to store them than in a cute little mini book.
For this mini album I created a camera shaped cut file (which you can download below!) and cut a bunch of pages. There's a small flap at one of the sides that I used to connect the next set of pages. After connecting all of the pages together, Iadded to photo mats and decorated each page spread with a stickers, ephemera pieces and enamel dots. You may also use stamps in your journaling and throughout the mini book as additional decorative elements. This mini book measured about 4.5” x 6” but had plenty of space for those precious memories and stories.
For the cover I used the Stitched Nested Circle Die Set to cut a number of circles in black and silver paper to create the imitation of lens on the camera. Chipboard is always the best option for decorating the cover. Adding a few brads is also a great finishing touch.
If you were inspired by today's project and would like to create a similar one, here is a downloadable cut file you may use. Thank you for visiting Echo Park Paper and make sure to stop by again for more inspiration!
