The perfect gift-sized 8×8 album covers are back for a limited time, so now is the time to create something special to give for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and any everyday occasion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few years ago I developed this easy-to-follow method for creating a simple, yet decorative 8×8 album. This method works with any paper pack and combination of Border Maker Cartridges. I’ve turned to it several times when I’ve wanted to make a small gift or specialty album, so I thought I’d share it once again with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This time I wanted to create a little coffee table album of some of our family’s cherished moments at the cabin. I’m using the Spring Cottage Designer Paper Pack and Stickers, as well as a few of the newest and cutest Border Maker Cartridges \u2014 Climbing Vine Chain, Gemstone Chain, Bridge and Clouds. Watch how I use a simple cutting guide to create elements I can mix and match for all the pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
