Mini Scrapbook Albums

Mini scrapbook albums are such good gifts! They can be special keepsakes you can carry in your handbag or keep in a desk drawer at work. Sometimes it isn't convenient to display framed photographs at work, so a tiny album is a great solution.

You can purchase mini albums that are 2"x3" in size. They are often constructed with pocket pages so are easy to fill up with little photos and embellishments.

Why not make one out of chipboard and tie it together with a book binding ring?

Why not make one out of little paper bags and bind it with ordinary cardstock and paper binding pins?

Another idea is to look for evenly sized objects like drink coasters or an old pack of cards to decorate. Bind them together with a single ring or several rings if so desired. You could even bind them with yarn or twine or other similar materials like thin nylon surfboard rope!

Try different shapes for your pages. Old CDs make good mini album pages, and you can punch holes through them with a Crop-a-dile as mentioned on the page about Papercraft Tools.

What about some themes for your mini album?

  • If you have a good relationship with your Mother-In-Law, a lovely idea is to make a special little gift for her showing how you and your husband are happy together.
  • Make a 'New Baby' album for Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt, Uncle...
  • Create a mini book about your latest trip
  • Make a special present for your boyfriend to carry with him if you have to be apart or to celebrate a special anniversary or occasion in your lives

The possibilities are endless!
