Flip and Fold Mini Album Tutorial

Flip and Fold Mini Album
Hi friends, Thank you so much for your kind supportive words on my last blog post. Sharing a unique mini album I designed using fabulous dies from Crealies and gorgeous papers from Dress My Craft .
Octagonal Mini Album
I framed a beautiful girl [ fussy cut from the pattern paper] in a handmade frame[ made at home using a silicon mold and Sakura clay] and added  handmade foam flowers atop an octagonal box which houses the mini album.

The octagonal mini album is held closed with a felt band embellished with a lacy border and a gorgeous pearl carpet!

The mini is made of 9 octagons and each octagon flips over in such a way that when all the pages are opened you have a lovely  floral design!

I was just playing around with ideas for my Crealies DT post when this design struck me and I love how it turned out. It is very easy to make and can be adapted to other shapes also.
Here is the video showing how the album unfolds and also a quick Tutorial

  1. I have just watch this video on the crealies FB page Sonia and fell in love with it when I saw it not realising that it was your project. I love the papers they are gorgeous and the idea of a book that opens out around the octagon is fantastic.
