Flip Album
I've been wanting to make a flip album for awhile. I've been seeing these mini scrapbooks all over the internet. They're just so cute and they're not that difficult at all.
Materials Needed: 3 pieces of 12 x 12 solid cardstock (2 in contrasting colors) 3 pieces of coordinating 12 x 12 patterned scrapbook paper Ribbon Double-sided tape
Cut solid cardstock as follows: 1 piece measuring 6 x 12 3 pieces measuring 5-3/4 x 12 Cut contrasting solid cardstock to four pieces 5-1/2" square
Score piece of 6" x 12" at 2-3/4" and 3" on one end. Flip it over and score it on the other end at 2-3/4" and 3" also. This is your cover.
Score the (3) 5-3/4" x 12" sheets at 3" on each end.
Place double-sided tape on both of the 3" ends of one of the 5-3/4" x 12" pieces of cardstock.
Adhere the other two pieces of 5-3/4" x 12" pieces of cardstock to the one with the double-sided tape so that it looks like this.
Fold flaps in. This is the inside of your mini album. Take your 6" x 12" cover and put double-sided tape just inside the middle score lines.
Place the inside of your mini scrapbook onto this double-sided tape.
Attach one of the 5-1/2" squares to the inside first flap, which will create your cover.
Adhere a piece of ribbon as shown using regular tape.
Run double-sided tape down both sides and attach another piece of 5-1/2" square cardstock on top. This is now your completed cover.
Attach another 5-1/2" square to the back flap to create the back flap of the book.
Attach ribbon as shown.
Adhere the final 5-1/2" square over ribbon.
Cut patterned scrapbook papers as follows: 6 @ 5-1/2" Square 8 @ 5-1/2" x 2-1/2" Adhere these to all the inside pages.
Embellish as desired.
