Hello, crafty friend! Previously I shared some seasonal embellishment clusters and tags I created using one of the recent Sizzix & 49 Market releases, working up toward adding these to a mini album using the Build an Album Thinlit. And today is the day that I'm finally sharing this mini album tutorial!

I really appreciate you all being so patient with me on getting this tutorial done and out to you. If you follow me on any of my socials, you may have seen my recent posts about my health issues. I have officially been diagnosed with lupus and I've been having to pace myself a little more with my craft projects, so this mini album was a little more delayed because of that. 

And the best part--I did have the energy to make this into a YouTube tutorial for you!

Number of Die Cuts
Here's what you'll need to cut from the Build an Album Thinlit in order to create a 4 paged mini album:
  • Album Base: 2 from cardstock
  • Album Page: 8 from patterned paper (front and back cover + inside front and back cover + 4 pages)
  • Album Binding Piece (Spine): 3 from cardstock, 2 from patterned paper
  • Waterfall Binding: 1 from cardstock
  • Page Attacher: 4 from cardstock

The best thing about this album set is that it is versatile and you can add even more pages. All you need to do is cut more pages, album spines and waterfall bindings to expand it. Once you have made a 4 page album and understand how it comes together, it will be a cinch to create another album with more pages!
