Crealies A Christmas Star Mini Album Tutrorial Part 1


Hi It's Patty
Today I would like to share with you the start of a new mini album series, this one is Christmas inspired.  I'm calling this one A Christmas Star. 
In today's post I will show you how to make 4 pages if this mini. I have a full tutorial on this. 


To create my base pages I used Crea-Nest-Lies XXL no:24  This is my go to die all the time for my base pages. You can use any of the Crea-Nest-Lies XXL dies for your base pages but this one is just my goto and if your looking to start making these mini album this would be one I would recommend as a must have.  For my pattern paper I used Crea-Nest-Lies XXL no:95  the rough edges on this die makes for fun edges. 


To put both styles of these pages together I also used Mini Album Binding System C  and On The Edge Die no:48  One page I made a side pocket and a top loading pocket on the other page.


I wanted to make a fun element to my pockets so using Crea-Nest-Lies XXL no:102  and a piece of acetate I made this see thru window. 


Below is a closer look at the fun stitching on these dies. 


For my next 2 pages using all the same dies I created this center spread of the mini album when we put this together. 


For these pages I made a fun closure to keep this all neat when closed.  Using Mini Album Binding System C  in a different way I made my stars (made with Crea-Nest-Lies XXL no:102  )flip up to allow the pages to open. 


I keep all this closed by attaching my closure on top of For Journalzz and Plannerzz Small Pocket Die .


Then from going largest to a smaller die I made these pages flip open for photo mats.  These were all made using Crea-Nest-Lies XXL no:24  for my base pages and Crea-Nest-Lies XXL no:95 for my pattern paper and all attached with Mini Album Binding System C 




I hope you enjoyed these first 4 pages and I can't wait to show you the next ones.
