Personalizing Mini Albums

Step 1 Remove the album ties. Cut desired Background & Texture (B&T) paper 1" longer and 1" wider than the album. Leaving a 1/2" border on all sides, begin attaching the paper, working from the spine out. Cut small slits on each side of the spine bends.

Step 2 Fold the excess B&T toward the inside of the album and attach, wrapping like a present. Start with the top and bottom pieces, followed by the sides.

Step 3 Re-attach the ribbon or twine using Mini Glue Dots®. To keep the inside covers neat, cut a piece of coordinating cardstock 1/2" smaller than the inside front and back covers and adhere.
