The perfect sized mini Christmas Keepsake Book, Original Design by Karolina’s Krafts.
This little book, although small has so much space for memory gathering.
I had a size reference given space and postage, so it had to be less than 6.6” long and 5”wide, thankfully this little gem was only 5” by 4” so perfect. My book has most of the function and features of Karolina’s minus the half page pocket and magnets, I also filled mine with goodies and pre-made Mats to glue in to spaces on pages you want to, so they are loose. I also made the Matt’s and glued them in on the z fold spaces. I added corner photo minders and other embellishments to utilize.
The album has front inside flap and pocket, a zfold photo spread, belly band, extra fold out pages to matt another inside back pocket, special mini magnet flap and included is several framed Mats 4- 3×3 gift cards with envelopes, 2 gift tags and a tree tag, and a bull nose clip on the zfold, it turned out really cute.
The patterned papers, and cutaparts I used were all from, Echo Park, Carta Bella, Simple Stories, Stamperia, DSWV, Photo Play and Tonic Studios. Sadly I cannot remember each papers collection name as they are were all leftover scrap pieces from last years Christmas makes.
The Cardstock is all in the color “Licorice” by card stock warehouse, the album base is 100lb – 11”x8.5” and the inner pages is 65lb – 11”x8.5” – www.cardstockwarehouse.com or via Amazon
The adhesives I used are Bearly Arts – Precision Glue, Elizabeth Craft – Double Sided Adhesive, 3M Scotch foam tape, ACOT 1/2” foam dots, Beacon All purpose Clear glue for the bow.
Embellishments are Offray Ribbons, Spellbinders half back pearls, gems, washi tape, American Crafts Washi Tape, Jolee and Jot stickers, The Paper Studio – Glitter Bows, various paper companies(see above) leftover scraps, stickers, cut aparts and other bits n bobs.
