Free: Mailable Mini Album Tutorial

Back in February I shared one of my Mailable Mini Album designs, and invited you to let me know if you’d like me to do a tutorial. Well, you guys let me know 🙂

So, here it is, enjoy!

Sharing Pictures with a Mailable Mini Album

Why send a birthday card when you can send a Mailable Birthday Mini? 🙂

This week I’m sharing my latest design in this Mailable Mini category, created with Prima Marketing’s beautiful Amelia Rose collection. It sports two pocket pages held together by a photo booklet-in-a-booklet and offers room for 10 pictures – or 9 plus a journalling spot like mine.

If you’d like to see more where this came from, check out my other mailables: the Mini Folio version, the 6-Panel Fold-Out version and the Actual Booklet version! Still can’t get enough? Go ahead and browse through my entire Booklets & Wallets section.

Another Mailable Mini – But Different

I guess I’m into some mailable minis… So here’s a different design altogether! You only need 1 sheet of cardstock and some design paper. The flatter you keep your decorations, the easier it will fit into an envelope and off through the mail.

In this video I’m showing you an example of such a 1-sheet album, and I’m also taking you with me through my decorating process.

Btw, you can turn this project into a mini album page for my Double-Stacked Too mini album design. There’s a video class series for that entire album available here.

Hope to have inspired you to create a fun & quick project!

Tutorial: Two Mailable Minis (and a photo card)

Sometimes you want to mail someone more than just a card, especially if they’re far away and you still want to give them something special. Well, meet my Mailable Mini! This is a great way to send an elaborate all occasions card-slash-mini-album.

The two examples I’m sharing with you today are a birthday version and a commemorative version. One for a man, the other for a woman (my aunt) but filled with pictures of a man (my late uncle). So for both I used the masculine themed Barbershoppe collection by Kaisercraft. For my aunt, I used more feminine embellishments plus a rose paper on the back, for the man, I left it at clean and straight as possible, with of course a little bit of technique – in the form of a magnetized closure.

If you want to make one yourself but don’t know how, there’s a tutorial in the second half of the video. I’m also gladly referring you to my free video tutorial on matting, so enjoy!
