Summer Mini Album and Free Download

Summertime is so fun here in the Leopard house. It's filled with swimming, camps, trips, reading and a ton of fun so I thought it'd be great to make a mini album to document the highlights and tell our stories. I'm offering a free download to recreate one for your summer adventures.


How to:

Step 1: I created this 4" x 6" mini album with the help of my Silhouette software and CAMEO. You can DOWNLOAD the cut file HERE. Cut your cover out of pattern paper and set aside.


Step 2: Cut 3 - 4 pieces of pattern paper for the inside pages of the book.  This is included in the cut file so it's all pre-measured. Stack them on top of each other, making sure the patterns are in the right directions. Upside down hearts are cute and all but I prefer mine right side up.




Step 3: Stitch the cover to the inside pages. Again, make sure the cover and pages are all in the same direction.  Add a strip of paper to the cover if you prefer.


Step 4: Embellish the inside with sentiments, frames, accordion pull-outs so you can include many photos on one small page, etc.
