Modern Mini Accordian Scrapook Album/Tree Decoration

Last year I started a new family Christmas tradition for each of my boys. I usually buy them an ornament for the tree but to change it up I made them each a mini album ornament. You can see last years ornament here.

So this year, in keeping with tradition, I designed another ornament/album for my guys and will also be selling DIY ornament/album kits on my etsy shop. Here are some sample photos. The kit will include wire word hanger and heart charm. There is room for up to 10 photos. In my sample there are 9 spots for photos as the accordian has been glued to the box, but there are endless possibilities I have left the back of the accordian blank so I can journal on it. Box measures 2 3/8" x 2 3/8" (6 cm x 6 cm). After the box is cut it is embossed to give texture and dimention. (Mostly because I love the look of embossed paper)
Inside the box the accordian mini album total length measures 11 1/4 x 2 1/2" (28.5 cm x 5.8 cm) Each square of the accordian is 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" (5.8 cm x 5.8 cm).

I have left the back blank for journaling.

Kit will include:

1 die cut box cut from embossed sage green cardstock with gromets added for strength

1 pre scored accordian strip 11 1/4 x 2 1/2" (28.5 cm x 5.8 cm) Each square of the accordian is 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" (5.8 cm x 5.8 cm).

4 each of die cut butterflies and hearts in various coordinating colours

One album cover with wire word...partially opened
details on flaps (same for both albums).

Fully opened . . .
Close up of rubber stamped images with versamark ink (no colour - very subtle).
photo cards - ready to load with baby photos. I like to use a dark background for photos to make the images really pop. It should be more about the picture than anything else.

Entry #12 - Mini origami fold album for Dad

Dad headed back for Thailand - I put this book together for him in about 4 hours which is amazing for me. I have only created about 4 four scrapbook pages during my entire scrapbooking career most of my layout ideas are in my head. For this book, I purchased a Martha Stewart extra large (I think 24" x 24") sheet of paper - chocolate brown - from Michael's for $3.00. I am happy with how it turned out. I journalled in White pen in the blank spaces. A couple more hours would have made a huge difference, but deadlines.... haha!!









These are the inserts: We each wrote a message to Grandpa on one
