Transform the Li'l Sprouts page kit and a sheet of mat board into an adorable keepsake album. It makes a great gift, and the recipient is sure to cherish it for years to come!
Li'l Sprouts Mini Album
Gather a Li'l Sprouts kit, one 12x12 Mat Board along with the U-Hinge Album instructions download. Choose your paper assignments and trim according to the cutting diagrams. (Note: I had removed the pink metallic for use on a different project, so I replaced the papers with a coordinating shade of blue from my stash.)
Finally, follow the instructions (and/or the video tutorial) to assemble the book structure. While wrapping the book covers, I added a length of blue ribbon from the kit to create a closure for the album.
Are you ready for a tour?
Embellish the cover with a cutapart sentiment and two silver charms, adhered using CS® bookbinding glue.
Use the cutaparts and other goodies included in the kit to decorate the finished book.
I adore the versatility of the duplex paper in this collection. It's a lovely shade of blue on one side...
...and purple on the other.
Decorate the outside flaps of each trifold page...
...as well as the inside.
The finished book turned out even better than I imagined! I can't wait to give it to my friend so she can begin to fill it with photos of her precious grandson.
You won't believe how easy it can be to transform any CS® Page Kit into an awesome handmade gift, allowing you to customize each book to the personality of the recipient.
I'm pretty sure I'll be making a few more of these for the holidays. Click on the links below to gather everything you need to make one for yourself.
