Chunky Mini Book

Today's project was a lot of fun and easy...

Marion from A Piece of Craft does live UStream videos for Prima Marketing every Tuesday night.....This was one of the projects she did last week and it was so easy to do....If you like origami you will love making this little book...I think the actual assembly of the book only took about an hour to make.

Here are a few pictures....

 For the cover I used some Prima E-line flowers that I Glimmer Misted and add pearls to the centers. I also added a small piece of left over Prima gems from another project to the cover as well...


Here is another view of the book, just so you can see how chunky it really is...


and here was what the inside looks like.....


Wouldn't this make a great brag book for your purse. You can fit some wallet size photo's in here and toss it in your purse.

Have a great Tuesday....

Your mini album looks great! I saw the same Live with Prima class but haven't had a chance to give it a try yet. I just love Marion's classes for ideas and inspiration and it's really fun to see what others take from her shows too. Thanks for sharing yours,
Kristina

I thought you were going to show me a "Squash" album, but this is gorgeous... I'll have to check out Marion's site for a tutorial.

Hi Cristina,
This is such a cute mini. I have made several of them from another video I saw a long time ago. Everyone loves them because they are just so cute and easy to fit in your pocket book !
Your cover is really pretty !

Beautiful! Thank you for posting this video. I have never done orgami, but followed Marion along and picked it right up. It is so much fun! I am going to make a bunch of them to give as gifts. You are right they are perfect for all those wallets.
