Illustrated Craft Tutorial - Scrapbook Paper Mini-Album

All you need are sheets of thick scrapbook paper to create an album for any occasion. This album looks interesting because each page has 4 small sections to fill, which makes the album seem like more pages than it actually has.

 

 

Tutorial - Scrapbook Paper Album 1

1. For each page, cut your 30x30 cm (12 x 12 inch) sheet of scrapbook paper in half so that you have two 15 x 30 cm sheets.

2. Fold both halves in half again and use the bone folder to create a nice crease.

3. On one of the two paper halves, fold then the open edges towards the center fold.

5. When opened up, the sheet looks like it has a valley fold, a mountain fold and then a valley fold.

Set the half aside for a second.

6. The other half now only gets folded in half so that it looks like the image to the left.

7. Take your first folded half (with the valley and mountain folds) and place glue on the bottom of the two side edges (the glue should cover the entire area) and glue these down onto the other half.

11. Now to create the album with the pages, you simply glue the pages together. A bottom area of one page gets adhered to the top area of the next page. Make sure all your pages are facing the same direction before you glue them together.

Keep adding more pages as needed.
