My take on the receipe book. I added several of the 4x6 plastic sleeve pages to hold the cards. I love how it's nice and thin but has a lot of space.

Another winter collection with the slender album actually done this one a few weeks back before I started posting in the community.

For my first project in over 15 years, I tackled the quick mini album with some paper I bought a long time ago. I had some issues with the spine. I tried to hide the ridge with some ribbon. 😬 Yikes. I'm giving it to my best friend how owns a farm. She will never notice it.

This is the book I just finished for my grandson’s 6th birthday. It was so fun to make! I used the Slender Mini Album to start with. I doubled the spine width and doubled the pages. I also used only the smaller sized photos and didn’t use any of the 8x10 spots, I then added an expanding pocket to the back inside cover. I couldn’t find a monster truck paper collection, so me and my old friend, Etsy, made a run for it, lol. My grandson apparently has a strong feeling about mint chocolate chip ice cream, as shown in photo #6 😂. Such a goofball, lol.

Hey all. I finished one of two albums using the new Petals Mini Album Tutorial. I used 2 different Beach Day Shabby Chic papers from a store called Imagine the Art Designs on Etsy. LOVE this store's papers.
The 4 pockets, I covered both sides with the paper but made a pull out for inside each pocket that holds 4 photos.
I made this album in 1 day. Really, very easy to make. No windows or acetate. :-)
I will have a video walk-thru today or tomorrow.

The petals mini album was a blast to make. I chose to use up some of my winter paper stash from Echo Park on this one. I absolutely love the creativity used to design this album. I had to incorporate the peek-a-boo window of coarse and made a shaker picture frame for the cover.

Utter newbie here, but my daughters (11 & 13) and I (46) are starting books for our upcoming spring break.
Quick question - is it common for the paper edges at the spine to split? (The 80# cardstock). Am I using too much force to bend the cover of the album? not enough force? or is it a "calm down newbie that's what happens" thing?
Also - I have a hard time following a tutorial exactly, so I love that I can watch a few and add bits and pieces from one album/folio into another. I'm totally geeking out right now.
