Four sets of mini envelopes are back in stock, which reminded me of this fabulous album by Kristin (and the summer beachy theme is perfect for this heatwave).

Kristin used the Travel Album Covers Collage Sheet for the covers of her album (and cut scrapbook papers to match the size as her pages). That collage sheet has 3 covers that are large enough to be covers for a book of ATCs, and the wide blue covers (the ones Kristin used) can accommodate lots of sizes of envelopes (like those tiny square glassine envelopes on another page from Kristin’s album, shown above).

Vintage albums with a beachy vibe! Here’s a little souvenir album I created with all the fun new products. Hopefully it brings to mind someone’s long ago summer fun memories. The book is such a fatty that it needs clips to keep it closed. Thank goodness washi tape can make a plain black clip a little more fun! Can you believe that cover is from a collage sheet image, just glued to shirt cardboard? It looks like real leather!

Here’s Kristin’s supply list and you can see more photos in her blog post! ALL of the supplies from ALL THREE mini albums AND today’s new items are on sale in the Vintage Mini Albums SALE. (There’s a big group of related beach-themed charms on sale, too! That includes some that are back in stock… see 3 preview pics below.)

Accordion Books with Mats

Two sizes of Black Photo Album Accordion Book & Mats are back in stock and included in the Vintage Mini Albums Sale (and the larger size is used in two more album art samples below).

And just look at those adorable sweeties in the samples at right! Those mats were originally in a kit (now sold out) but the two collage sheets at right (A Mix of Spring Beauties and Bonne Annee Postcards) have ATC-sized images, which are a perfect size!

FREE Gift with All Orders

A set of the Black Photo Album Accordion Book & Mats – for 1 Inch Covers is FREE with all orders placed today through Wednesday (ends at midnight July 10, 2024)!

Note: as designed for 1″ tall covers, the height of this mini accordion book is smaller than 1″ tall (the book is about 7/8″ tall by almost 3/4″ wide).

It’s the tiniest size of the two back-in-stock sets above (this set includes one accordion fold booklet and 4 mats)… Laura Carson used this size as a tiny photo album in her Poe Book Nook shown at left: more photos here.

They’re also included in the sale (in case you’d like to order more)!

TWO More Mini Albums

First: the beautiful and clever Animal Family Album by Kristin Batsel! Kristin used the Black Mini Photo Album Accordion Book with a collage sheet of color mats…

I used two copies of the Photo Album Covers Collage Sheet to make the cover of the book and the front of the slipcase. The collage sheet has a front and back image of the book covers. I used one image of the front covers for the front of the book, and cut the center part of the same front image out to place on the slipcase.

Nice work, Kristin! A few more supplies are shown below; see everything Kristin used to make her Animal Family Album in the Supply List. And see more photos and a tutorial on Kristin’s blog post.

So…one thing led to another… since Kristin made a slipcase to “house” her album, like the Matchbox Letter Box, I added that letter box AND the 2 sizes of the related book stands to the sale, too!

Final Album: the Mini Animal Album by Rhonda Thomas using the same Black Mini Photo Album Accordion Book as Kristin, but with a simpler cover (a collage sheet cover image attached to the front of the accordion book) and with a clever use of Square Library Drawer Pulls as part of a metal clasp.

See everything Rhonda used to make her album in her Supply List. And see more photos on her’s blog post.
