Hello crafty friends! Today, I'm sharing my new Lori Whitlock Design Team Project. It's a fun vacation mini album I made with Lori's cutting file called 4x6 Horizontal Pocket Mini Album Tabbed Pages (SVG, Silhouette). It's filled with pretty shaped pocket pages and tabbed cards that are perfect for saving your favorite memories. I added pictures of our trip to Hawaii and it made the cutest little keepsake! 🌴🦩🌞
I decorated the album with the Doodlebug Design, Fun in the Sun Collection that I found in my stash. But ... this file could be made with ANY theme for photos of a holiday, family, friends,
new baby, school, your pet, or a season. It's 4x6 inches and has a flap that folds over onto the front cover to keep the pages secure.
There are 6 pocket pages with a tabbed card / photo mat tucked inside each one. Let’s take a look inside, then I’ll share the tutorial ...
The front of the pockets have a cute cut-out shape and plenty of space for embellishments. I added the sun and palm tree icon stickers and the Hello Sunshine card from the 6x6 paper pad.
The back side of the pocket pages are blank so I added more photo mats and cute tropical embellies!
The tabbed cards that are in the pockets can hold 2 photos (front and back) or be used for journaling.
On the page above, I created a flip-up card on the left with the 4x4 Sweet Life card. Then I added a fun family photo, a few fruity icon stickers, and the scalloped sticker from the This & That.
I added word stickers to each of the tabs that coordinated with my photo. This day we went ziplining and it was a big adventure! I loved it and highly recommend.
I love that Lori designed this mini album with so many pockets. You could even use them for small memorabilia, like ... postcards, tickets to an event / activity, a recipe, wine label, or business card.
Ok, now for the tutorial …
1. I cut out all of the pieces, including 6 pages, the
covers, 6 tabbed photos mats, pattern paper for the pockets and a
binding piece.
2. I adhered the patterns to the front of each pocket, and the covers, before gluing everything together.
3.
To create the pockets, I fold the right and left tabs inward and glued
them against the back, leaving the tab on the left free.
4.
To assemble the front cover, I adhered the remaining tab on the first
pocket just to the left of the score line on the cover piece. This
score line will eventually be the album’s binding.
5.
Next I continued to adhered each of the pocket’s tabs to the back of
the page in front of it.
6. The pockets created a stack of pages to the left of the spine. At this point, I also adhered the back cover piece to the tab on the front cover.
7. To adhere the last pocket to the back cover, I used the binding piece that comes in the cut file to adhere them together.
Once I finished assembling the album, I decorated it and added my photos. I had so much fun making this little tropical scrapbook and including some of my favorite memories of Kauai.
I hope you'll try Lori’s 4x6 Horizontal Pocket Mini Album Tabbed Pages File. It’s not only great for your own photos, but … it also makes a wonderful gift idea! Below are the product links and have a great day. 😊
