Beach Themed Mini-Album

7/18/2016 | Lynn Lilly

Who says you have to do a full 12×12 album for your beach vacation? A mini-album shares your favorite photos and is a fast way to get those pictures off your phone and ready to share. And the fastest way that I know to make a mini-album is by using Deflecto 3″x5″ flexible pouches, Deflecto pear clips, and mini-collections from Keller’s Creations!

This 10 page beach-themed mini-album was made in about 30 minutes, and it uses the “Alisha’s Beach House” mini-collection. That’s two full sheets of 12×12 paper, one sheet of 6×12 paper, an alphabet sheet, and four embellishment sheets, and I had lots left over! These mini-collections are fantastic because the 12×12 double-sided printed paper is divided into 6×6 quadrants. This gives you a ton of options on how to cut and combine the papers. All I added was white scrap paper, a couple of brads, blue ink, and some ribbon — all supplies I already had in my stash.

The album is the perfect size for Instagram photos or photos using those adorable little Instax cameras. Plus, you can easily throw it in a purse so you can share it with all of your jealous co-workers when you return from your beach getaway!
