• Deflecto 4″ x 6″ Clear Craft Frame
• Scrapbook Paper-Jen Hadfield Collection (Pebbles Inc.)
• 4″ x 6″ Cardstock- Kraft, Black
• 3 3/4″ x 5 3/4″ Corrugated Kraft Cardstock

How to make a Mini Flip Album:

1. Make two marks on the top of the frame approximately 3/4″ in on each side.  The marks need to be approx. 1/2″ down from the top of the frame.  (If the holes go down too far the pages won’t flip correctly.)  Drill two holes in the top of the frame with a 3/16″ drill bit.
2. For the mini album cover…Adhere a 3/4″ x 4 3/4″ scrapbook paper strip onto the top of the corrugated paper leaving a 1/8″ margin on the top.  Adhere the 3″ x 4″ journaling card (cut from the scrapbook paper) onto a 3 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ piece of blue scrapbook paper layer, add those layers onto the corrugated paper and then onto a 4″ x 6″ black cardstock layer.
3. Using the drilled holes on the craft frame as a guide, mark the cover and the Kraft cardstock pages and punch two holes on the top.
4. Mark and punch holes into a piece of 4″ x 6″ decorative scrapbook paper and insert into frame.
5. Attach cover and pages to the craft frame with book rings.
6. Tie ivory ribbon around cover.
