lunchbag mini albums

[Dandyspandy]

Could someone please explain how to make one of these? do you just use one bag, folded? Several bags? Tops cut off?

They're so cute, and I'd love to make them, but can't figure it out from the picture.

thanks a bunch!
Danielle ;)

Hi Danielle

The way I made my was with 3 lunch bags folded in half. I punched holes in the fold and tried with ribbons. You could also staple the fold if you wanted. This are very easy to make and alot of fun.

I hope this helps.

I wanted to know about that too, a month or so ago. Someone on Splitcoast recommended this link:

I'm sad to say I haven't tried making one yet (never any time!) but this gives step by step instructions with pictures. Hope it helps!

Does anyone have a pattern for a 'diamond-fold' scrapbook mini album?

I have made only one album. I used 12 bags total, 11 for the book and 1 for the binding. (I had to make my binding different because there were so many bags). I had 22 pages, and 11 insterts in the flaps. I also laid the bags down so the square part would be the front and the back, with two bags in the middle having the flaps together. The book turned out super cute. I used binder rings so I could add ribbon to them, but they are only for looks. They don't serve a purpose to hold the book together. I gave it to my friend for her 40th birthday in a matching box. She absolutely LOVED it.

Mainpage: The only thing I know about the diamond one is that you use 6x6 squares and attach them in the corners. I think you score in an X shape, I haven't made one of theese yet though.
