4 in 1 Mini Album Tutorial for Country Craft Creations

[@dindranew.6808]

Imagine if you made this for a 40 year old, with each quarter showing photos of their life. Or the 4 years of college, or someone's two children and the parents, or their 4 cats, or.... I love this idea.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Wow, great idea! What a present that would make!

[@timegirl7737]

Fabulous!!! I love 4 in 1 Mini Album!!! I can't wait to give this a try. Thank you!!!

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Thank you! I hope you like it!

[@znycelondon5313]

Hi, Hoping all is well with you…..missing your tutorials here on your channel🥰

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

I have some coming in the next week. Two in fact, stay tuned. I have just been swamped but I’m coming back! Thank you for checking on me!

[@CreationsWithHrt]

You did a great job. A novel way to use 12 x 12 paper with big images and still see the ENTIRE image. I love it!

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

I thought it was pretty fun to do!

[@dindranew.6808]

I adore that vintage look on the Christmas pack! I need that! I love vintage anything, especially Halloween.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Christmas Cheer is a beautiful collection!

[@louisatanner4306]

The most beautiful album I've seen in a long time. Thank you

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Oh, thank you!😊

[@TheresaBrown]

Simple yet brilliant design with so many possibilities!! You are a creative genius!! Thanks so much for sharing! 😍👏🏼👍🏼

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Thank you so much!🤗

[@carolynaderman5185]

Fantastic girl !!! I am just loving all your cool ideas. The baby book idea is fabulous.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

There’s a lot you can do with this one. Enjoy!

[@pattymurphy8395]

Thank you I am going to make one and I will show you....

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

I can’t wait!

[@alyndaw4934]

Will watch again. It is confusing especially the save the paper album. I liked the 4 in 1 album, so will give it a try. TFS

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Sorry about that. I thought about not mentioning that, I was afraid I would confuse folks. Cutting 6 x 6 papers then using connectors instead of cutting the larger pieces and scoring does save on cardstock but it is more labor intensive.

[@jackievass8961]

Beautiful album

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Thank you!

[@annieweisbeck5922]

Super cute! The 12 pages makes me think of CCC's Remember the Time collection. Hmmmm.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Yup! Me too!!!

[@jessicachamps3949]

u r BRILLIANT! love both options, you always come up with something completely original that I would never even dream of thank you for this tutorial!

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Thank you! I really appreciate your kind comments!!!

[@henriettawilborn7682]

Love it!!! Thanks for the tutorial.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

I’m so glad ! 🤗

[@lindamarker9534]

You’ve done it again! These are fantastic ways to really showcase the beautiful CCC paper collections! You are so extremely talented. TYFS!

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Thank you so much for that very sweet comment! 🥰

[@znycelondon5313]

I looooooove the project🥰 So easy and comes together very quickly. I like that the base pages are all created and put together first. They can be batch made …….ready and waiting for that special occasion that you want to give a personalized gift. Just finished making three albums from your last tutorial……so will be cutting three sets of each of these today…….. Again…..appreciate your skills so much and your sharing here on your channel🥰 Also the saving paper by adding the gussets…….great idea…..doesn’t eat into the 12x12 so much……🤗🤗🤗…..for me that really makes a difference😊

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

That’s awesome. I’m so glad and happy that you are having so much fun with these tutorials!

[@kathycox6967]

I love that it’s quick and easy. Going to make some. Thank you.

[@itrulabrissett139]

Thank you so much for sharing ☺️. I understood perfectly the paper saving method so thanks for that option

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Oh good! I almost didn’t add that because I thought it would be confusing. I appreciate the feedback.

[@robinhillman4219]

I'm looking for the miter corner punch and having great difficulty. Thousands of corner rounder and decorative corners but not this one. I must have one! Can you direct me please? TIA I love everything you do and your tutorials are such a gift especially considering they are free.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

It has been in my stash for years. It was made by Fiskars. I have no idea where I bought it. I hope this info maybe helps to find it. Good luck.

[@elisabethjnjp8953]

Nice really.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Thank you!

[@danaharper6968]

Oh my gosh, another amazing project. I love all your ideas and appreciate all your hard work to get our creative juices flowing again. You’re simply amazing

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

🥰Thank you!

[@znycelondon5313]

Cut out these and was a bit challenging folding the body…..the realized the flaps were too big. At least I was able to cut them down🥴 Could you please share what equipment you use to film your tutorials? Thank you……..🥰

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

I use my iPhone and the iMovie app to edit and upload. Nothing extra fancy, but it works great!

[@racket9]

Thank you for this fabulous tutorial. I can’t wait to give it a go ♥️♥️♥️

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

I’m so glad!!

[@anitaholmes6824]

Love this one....actually both of them....wow...making it right away. seriously this one can't wait...LOL I am thinking 110 lb for the base and reg weight for the pages? Thanks for sharing and inspiring me to do this one today! No idea what I will cover it with yet but it will come to me!!!! Thinking this could work with different sizes as well!

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Oh yes, this is completely versatile. I used 110 cardstock for the demo and it worked great.

[@anitaholmes6824]

@@michelleallenacreativeoper6112 So I made the original 6x6 and a 5x5 and a 4x4 this is a really versatile Mini! Thanks so much for sharing your talent!

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

@@anitaholmes6824 That is awesome! I’m so glad you liked it.

[@tali-ew2gh]

love and your tutorials. . for this album how many foto can be? and if I want to add some pockets and flap can I do or it eill be to much for this kind of album ? thanks from tali from Israel

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

The photo number really depends on how large you print them. You could do one large one per page. You could add pockets but I probably would only add one per booklet if it were me. It will get a little too bulky once you add pictures.

[@gloriarobertson4016]

Hi Michelle, did I understand you to say to cut the pattern paper 5 7/8"? thk u in advance for responding? Blessings

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Yes, I cut my papers 1/8” less than the cardstock they cover. Thank you for watching!

[@znycelondon5313]

Q: If I decide to cut my paper at 6x6……. Will the scores be done the same?

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

You will have to make all of those connectors if you want 6x6 pages.

[@carolstandrew8143]

Cute album. What is your punch you used to make the tabs?

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

It’s an old tag punch by Fiskars that I have had for years.

[@carolstandrew8143]

@@michelleallenacreativeoper6112 what is it called

[@mariemullan8682]

The two bottom pages do u put them in the guset or out side it

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

You put them on so they are not in the gusset but to the side of it, I think that’s what you are asking.

[@mariemullan8682]

Also do u mat them or do u put design paper on top

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

I just put the patterned paper on without mats

[@michellemaddox5086]

What weight is the artisan cardstock you used?

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Artisan cardstock is 87lb. Specially made for Country Craft Creations

[@conniephillips840]

Love this concept however I find you instruction on scoring rather confusing. Guess I'll have to watch it several more time to get it straight.

[@michelleallenacreativeoper6112]

Sorry about that. Is there a specific question I can help with?
