Today I am sharing with you how to create this mini album.




I started this mini album by tracing a "template" on pattered paper. I had this template for years, and I got it at a scrapbook convention. Here is a Mini 4x4 template that is very similar.
I used my Scor-Buddy to score all the lines for folding. I used Super Stik Glue Stick to adhere the chipboard to the patterned paper. I cut and scored the inside edges of the album.


I punched a strip of patterned paper, lined it up along the top of Scor-Buddy and scored between each scallop. I used  a Jumbo Zots Adhesive Dot to hold the fan fold flower together. This was my first time trying to make the flower and it was pretty easy with the Scor-Buddy.
 Next, I used the 1/8" grooves on the Scor-Buddy to score my white cardstock. I cut a heart out and inked the top with Clearsnap ColorBox Fluid Chalk Ink: Toffee. Later, I sprayed the heart with Smooch Spritz in Cosmic Pink.


I used Clearsnap ColorBox Dye Ink: Pinkolicious to stamp the frame that I cut out. After it was cut out I scored it the same way as the heart, using the 1/8" grooves. The top is inked with Toffee ink to define the groves. I really like the way that turned out. 



After the inside pages were scored and assembled I stamped each page with an image using Clearsnap ColorBox Pigment Stamp Pad: Chestnut.
The photos are from our Summer Honeymoon in Tahiti (Bora Bora and Moorea).
