So many photos. So little time. And I have several years of trips I haven’t documented. But to make full size scrapbooking LOs of them would be exhausting. Minialbums though…. Today I will show you real quick my latest little album.

I modeled this minialbum from a gate folded card template with a butterfly at the gate. I scored extra lines to make space for the waterfall of pages.
The album fit ten small pages approximately 10*5 cm each.
I decorated the front of the album extensively with ephemera, fuzzy cut objects from paper and chipboard.
Here you can see the inside of some pages.
I just love the petite design of the pages. I use Canon Selphy photo printer to print the photos in a fitting size.
Making a minialbum also gives you an opportunity to adapt shape and decorations of the album itself to the occasion. In this I tried to capture a romantic weekend to Wien filled with art and culture.
These are also a nice size to leave on the coffee table to flip through and remember.
Hope this inspires you to have a try!
