Anne

I decided to create something a little different this month - a piece of book art with an underwater sea theme.  You can see what's inside the box HERE on my blog.


This month I'm sharing the beginnings of my Junk Journal. To see how it came to be and a peep of what's within please pop on over HERE.


Nancy

Apparently I've been slacking because I missed a super easy way to create a mini-book cover.  Check out my blog to see what's been going on in Nancy-land.


Heather

Catherine Moore is our sponsor this month! Her Character Constructions stamps, dies, and papers are fabulous and I've used some in my book for this month. Come See!


Inna


Hello mini album friends!  I am very inspired by the summer that came to us in Siberia. And I made a mini album that shows how beautiful the summer is.  I recorded a video tutorial for you. Welcome to my BLOG to see how I made parts of the album.

May Mini Album Tutorials and Challenge

Welcome to Mini Album Makers Challenge for the launch of our May challenge.  We were thrilled to see your beautiful entries in our April challenge and cannot wait to see what you come up with this month.  Our DT is busy at work to bring you a fresh batch of inspiration for all of your book making pleasures.  Without further ado...


Here´s my new mini album that is basically just cardstock and paper! I made it by combining two mini album bases by Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts, as well as three paper collections by Stamperia and Mintay papers. Check out the super mini tutorial in the end of the blogpost on my blog!


Jennie

I have used Eileen Hull's new Notebook die to make this gorgeous little Vintage Notebook. It was made in no time at all, which was a relief as I had forgotten all about a friend's birthday! Do join me over on my blog if you would like to see how I pulled this all together in less than 30 minutes.



This month I'm working with a brand new album from Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts. Inside, you'll find two pockets with 2 separate mini-albums. Check-out my blog to see all the workings.


Tracey

For the month of May I have created a Butterfly Album, using Sizzix Bigz Dies, old papers and Vintage Lace. The perfect companion for journaling and mixed media creatives. For those how to do's please pop on over HERE.



I have had a file folder sitting on my desk for ages and decided to use it to create a mini album along with some Tim Holtz dies and some vintage looking papers from my stash.  You can see more HERE.


Heather


It's always a good time to recycle! I recycled various bits from my studio to make these fun little pocket-sized journals. See the process HERE.


Inna

Hello friends!  I found that in my workshop there are many old collections of paper and decided it was time to find a use for them.  Therefore, I made quite a voluminous album and recorded a video lesson for you.  Come to my blog. I would be very happy to you!

Our generous prize sponsor this month is The Funkie Junkie Boutique.  One lucky winner will receive a fabulous prize pack of assorted art supplies.  If you're looking for even more crafty inspiration, make sure to check out the Frilly and Funky blog.

April Mini Album Tutorial and Challenges

Happy spring book makers!  As our March challenge closes, we look forward to what April has in store with a delightful array of design team inspiration to get your creative juices flowing.  We do hope you will check out our March challenge entries and be inspired to join us again this month.  Now look with the team has to share...

Inna

Hello, friends! I found that the stamps scattered all over the scrap room began to bother me ... They did not have a permanent place, they lay in different boxes. So I decided to make a beautiful folder for them. I recorded a video tutorial for you, I hope that it will be useful to you. Welcome to my blog!


Nancy

Hi Everyone.  Spring is in the air and I'm thinking about anything botanical.  Trying my hand at one of my first junque journals using Eileen Hull's Wrap Journal die.  Having fun with this journal on my blog.


Heather

Hi all! I have a couple of little treasures to share with you all. I hope you'll come join me on my blog and see what I've been working on. I have lots of pictures to share!


Tracey

Hello Creative Friends!  Using the Passport Die from our Sponsor this month Eileen Hull I've created a Journal to keep all your Hope's, Dreams and Fears within.  For more info on how it came to be please pop on over to my blog.


Maria

Hello! I want to show you a pair of steampunk wedding albums I made. It was a custom order from a young lady. She had a romantic steampunk wedding 3 years ago, and she wanted to have two albums for her wedding photos. The names on the covers are hidden for public as this is what the client wanted. I looked through the wedding pictures and the video from that day, and took inspiration and the color scheme from there. I also enclosed several memorable decorative elements that the wedding couple can definitely relate to. Check out the video tutorial in the end of the blogpost over here.


Anne

Since Eileen Hull is our Sponsor this month, I have made a Journal using Eileen's Wrapped Journal die and two of my new Tim Holtz stamp sets.  If you would like to see how I put this together, I hope you will visit my blog HERE.


Jennie

I have spent the last week treading the boards at our local theatre in a fabulous play I Remember Mama. I decided to make a book for our wonderful director/producer with a page for each of the characters to pen their memories of the play with photographs of Edwardian characters sourced for all the characters and backstage crew. I have used Eileen Hull's Passport die and made a mixed media cover. There are many more photographs on my blog and details of how I made the covers. I look forward to seeing you there!


Gina 

Here's a quick and easy album that I made for a young friend.  The pages are created from 8.5x11 cardstock and made with only 2 scores and a cut.  Come over to the blog and see how they are made and see the fun elements I added to the album.

Our generous prize sponsor this month is Eileen Hull and she's offered a $35 gift certificate to her Etsy shop for one lucky winner.  Eileen's innovative dies make book making a joy, so do check out her fabulous assortment by following the links below.

Heartfelt Creations Interactive Inserts Mini Album Tutorial


Hi Everyone.  Nancy Wethington here with another mini for the Mini Album Makers Challenge blog. Each month someone on the Mini Album Makers Design Team takes their turn at a mini album tutorial.  This month it's my turn.  I've chosen a pre-made mini book from Heartfelt Creations

Thanks for watching, Nancy

February Mini Album Tutorials and Challenge

Happy February book makers!  We hope your year is off to a great start.  Thank you for your patience with the delay in announcing our November/December challenge winners.  We promise those will be forthcoming.  If you didn't get a chance to join our January challenge, please make sure to take a look back and see those fabulous entries.  We are thrilled to announce our latest DT member, Heather Maxwell of Vestige Blog.  Let's see what she and our other designers have created for our challenge inspiration...

Heather


Sometimes it's fun to work small. This sweet little journal is made starting with a kit from Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts. I then had a lovely time adding and embellishing. Come visit my blog to see how I did it.


Inna


Hello friends! I made a mixed media cover for notebook and recorded a video tutorial for you.  Hope this video will be useful for you.  Subscribe to my channel.


Anne


Each year I like to make a mini journal / diary to keep notes, thoughts and appointments in.  If you would like to see more of my project, please visit HERE for more detail.


Nancy

Mini books don't have to be complicated to assemble.  This is so easy to create.
With just a few rings, an easel-type construction and the size pages you want
you can create your own easel flip book.  Please visit my site to see each page.


Jennie


If you are like me and love making ATCs it is great to have a mini album to showcase some of your favourites. I have made this mini book using envelopes which was fun and quick to make and of course easy to decorate as the ATCs were all ready to stick in.   Do join me over on my blog if you would like to see more.


Gina

This adorable album is created using the newest album kit from Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts and features flip panels with a shaped edge.  Check out my post to see the kit and how I decorated mine.
