- How to Use G45 Metal Dies to Make a Mini Album

Featuring Graphic 45's Let it Bee paper collection and Metal Dies
Hi everyone. I am so honored and excited to be returning for a second year with the Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador team. I am constantly inspired by the gorgeous paper collections by Graphic 45 and cannot wait to see what new releases are coming soon! Of course, I also love the older collections, and actually own all but two Graphic 45 collections! Needless to say, I have a Graphic 45 paper addiction :)
During my first year as a Graphic 45 brand ambassador, I have dabbled in many different paper crafting techniques. From traditional scrapbook layouts to mini albums to cards to home decor, I’ve tried it all! That’s one thing I love about crafting - there’s so much you can do! Mini albums are my absolute favorite project to make, especially baby albums. However, I am always trying to challenge myself to go outside my comfort zone and my art has grown tremendously as a result!
Over the past year, I’ve been focusing on another side of my art as I finally launched my own small business, K. Nichole Designs, Limited. I have been learning how to design digital files and in my Etsy shop, I sell laser-cut wooden embellishments for crafting. Two of my designs (the wooden cover and the wooden bees) are featured in my Let it Bee mini album.
For my project, I created a video tutorial showing you how to make your own tag base and decorate them using your Graphic 45 metal dies. Then, I will show you how to use the same dies to create the pages in the mini album.

Love love 🥰
That seems so much easier. 🤩 Thank you 💐💝👍🏼😇🌷
Beatiful album, expertly done. 1 hint I'd like to point out; regarding those pieces that the paper is more narrow than the die and you don't want to cut the score line into the paper. Feed the extra paper to the top of the die so you can't accidently feed the die to far through the machine. Great tutorial, TFS
Thanks for watching and your feedback, happy paper crafting!
Very nice. Love the sunflower papers.
So talented stunning 😍
Great use of the G45 dies.. Love the little mini.
thank you so much Renee. I love to use my G45 dies and am glad you like it!
thank you so much Renee. I love to use my G45 dies and am glad you like it!
Great album Kristine!!
thank you so much Cecilia!
So pretty and doable! Thank you for showing me something I can do with those does that won’t take 3 weeks to finish but most of all, thank you so so much for showing the pretty side of the papers in your project. For some reason, most of the projects hide the side of the papers that have the beautiful designs. If they are used, they’re covered by the solids & patterns. I don’t get it but I love love love your project. I fully intend to make this one for my mom and another myself, but first for mom 💕
Happy paper crafting!
How creative! I am going to have to try this. Great tutorial by the way.
Thank you Mary. I hope you enjoy making one!
Love how you used all the dies to make this album!! Beautifully done! ❤️
thank you so much!
thank you so much!
This collection is so wonderful! 🐝 Great album and great inspiration, thank you Kristine
Lovely album, and Lucky me - I already have everything!
Yay! Happy paper crafting!
Thanks for your tutorial! 1st time seeing these beautiful papers and projects. I don't know where to start. My interest is in making an album and/or scrapbook. Will have to search and purchase this collection. So Pretty!
I love this! I’ll have to purchase the envelope and tag dies, I don’t have those yet. Thank you!
I love the G45 dies. I hope you will too if you buy them!
I absolutely love this project. And I have the papers!!! I went to Etsy but couldn’t find the store you sourced your wooden cover from. I did find other stores that sell them though. Do you know if the store you used is still active? Thank you so so much for sharing your gorgeous project. 🌹Rosie of Oz & 🐶Omega the Cavalier🐶
This is awesome! I really haven’t used those die’s much! Thanks! One question, do you have a tutorial to make the folio itself? Gail
The video above shows you step by step how to make the whole album, from pages to inserts. You can use chipboard (measurements included in the video) or you can buy the wooden cover that I used from my Etsy shop.
Agree get shore of ideas what to do with them. Beautiful clear instructions thank you ♥️
@@nurseae I'm glad you found it helpful!
How do I make the chip board cover? What size?
Great question, at the 19:14 minute of the tutorial Kristine shares the measurements for the album cover. Thanks for watching and happy paper crafting! ua-cam.com/video/cCZgBPxGf4g/v-deo.html
Hello, great question! At the 19:14 minute Kristine shares the measurements, ua-cam.com/video/cCZgBPxGf4g/v-deo.html Happy paper crafting!
PS: I found the shop. I went through safari. ❤❤❤
How do you attach everything to the chipboard cover?
Hello, any adhesive that you have should work. A wet adhesive might be best then you have a little more wiggle room while positioning the pieces. Happy paper crafting!
Such a beautiful album! What kind of kraft cardstock do you use and where did you buy it? Thank you for sharing!
thank you Terri. I buy my Kraft cardstock at Michaels.
@@KristineDesignsHandmade Thank you for your quick reply.
