Micro Mini Scrapbooks

micro-mini-1Mini Scrapbooks out of One Sheet of 12×12.

I have had a request from one of my fellow crafters Jill to make a Micro Mini measuring 2” x 3”.

I have made them on the same theme in 3 different designs so I hope you like them?



Here are the measurements for each Mini Micro Album, now you can watch the video and make up your albums.

Card Frame for Father’s Day

card-frame-2Here in the UK Father’s Day is in a couple of weeks, so here is a quick and easy project.

The Card Frame makes a great gift, all you then need to do is slip in your 6×4 photos and you have the perfect gift to put a smile on any Dad or Grandfathers face.

So get crafty and make a special gift for the man in your life.

 

Supplies you will need;

2 sheets of A4 Kraft Card

I sheet of kraft packaging or chipboard

Embellishments if you wish

2 photos of 6×4 measurements

Measurements;

Cut one of the A4 sheets to measure 7″ x 11 1/2 ”  Next I put this through my Ebosser using the A4 Cable embossing Folder.

I then on the longside scored this in 5 1/2″ on either end. Using a distress ink pad I then inked over the embossed pattern to show more texture.

Next I stuck this down to my Kraft packaging/chipboard using Collall All Purpose Glue and set it to one side to dry. While this is drying you can then make your frames.

From your other sheet of kraft card cut 2  pieces measuring 5 1/2″ x 6 3/4″ and score this in at 1/4″ on 3 sides. Now using a cutting die or kraft knife make an aperture frame to showcase your photos. Ink you edges to match your project.

Using your stamp of choice you can stamp a background to your cover to give this a patterned look. I then used a letter stamp set to make my words to give my project a personal touch. I cut these out and stuck them down with 3D Glue.
