Basic 8x8 Mini Album Tutorial Part 1
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 січ 2025
- Here’s step one of a simple 8x8 folio style album. The purpose of this was to only include mats and layers for 6x4 photos without the need to trim them down. This is an easy folio to make, decorate and to fill with photos.
In this part, I will show you how I make the cover using construction tape. If you prefer a cardstock cover, then that’ll work too and there are plenty of fantastic tutorials online.
This is an easy make that uses minimal paper too. Great for your more expensive papers as it will stretch then. Remember to share your makes on the Facebook group too.

Paul, thank you. I needed one that was quick, easy and effective and your design was exactly that.
Kandis Andrews You’re welcome. Please share with me how it turned out!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this tutorial!! I have been looking for something that I can put only 6 x 4 photos in to give to non-crafters. It is so confusing for people if they have to cut down their photos to put in a book. This will me so much easier. Great tutorial and instructions!! Thank you from Ontario Canada!!
Joanne Saurette So glad this may be of help to you. Promise me if you try it that you’ll share the final product with me!
this looks like fun!

Hi Paul. I have just finished making my first of your albums. Your instructions were brilliant & I found it quite easy to follow. It is not the neatest but I am sure it will come with experience. The thing I did find tricky was the construction tape. It is very sticky, especially sticking to me. Would dusting my fingers with talk help with that - or do you have other tips. It did roll over on me as I was going around the covers which was very frustrating. Thank you.
Muito bem feito!Também vende Kits?Obrigada. Sintra,Portugal
Love your videos. Im using masking tape many colors--but it won;t stay stuck do you use some type of glue to make it stick?
Masking tape won’t work. This tape sticks on its own and has been sourced to be used for papercrafting.
Just wanted to say two major reasons why I love your albums - they don’t use huge amounts of designer paper, and they are designed for “proper sized” photos
Thank you so much. That is exactly what I aim to do!
Can we have a link to the Tiger tape you use please.
Of course

Where do you buy construction tape please Paul
Sue Lewis - Paynter from a local shop but it’s the My Creative Spirit tape. Have also tried the Stix2 one. It works and is much stronger but it doesn’t like to stick to itself (after wrapping it around) so you have to trim it where it meets.
Can you please name local shop as I might be going to Carmenthen next week
Sue Lewis - Paynter It’s in Milford Haven
Oh no is there anything else I could use like coloured duct tape I need to make an album quickly thank you
Sue Lewis - Paynter not really. Duct tape is too strong
Please share your craft room with us.❤
Oh keep an eye out on the Graphic 45 UA-cam Channel as have a video done for them. It’s not impressive like the others but I know I’m lucky just to have my own space.
What is construction tape? Is this a type of tape that is used in the construction industry, or is it just the tape that you are using to cover edges?
It’s also known as frame or framers tape. I get mine from here
www.coolkatzcraft.com/new-tiger-paw-black-frame
Is that painters tape?
Or electrical tape.
Its a construction tape that had a papery texture. I get it from Cool Katz Crafts

@@paulford6686
Like washi tape?
@@livethegoodlife1740 Bit stronger than washi I think but I don’t really know enough about washi sorry.
How many 4x6 photos can a person add to this album
Where do I find the tape?

How many 4x6 photos can a person add to this album?
Think it was 19 fixed places plus then the room in the pockets attached to the covers and the central one.
That is the most ridiculous and lengthy way to put a mini album together
its brilliant and quick, much quicker than score tape and cardstock and cheaper!!
It is my preferred method. It is actually very quick once you’ve got into the swing. I also prefer it as it has no possibility of cracking like you get sometimes with cardstock.
amanda sanmugam Thank you!
I agree Paul. You take your time walking us through the individual steps, but the actual process is quick and easy. Thanks for your excellent tutorials. I love them!
