6.5 x 6.5 Mini Album full Tutorial - Beach Theme

Hello, Crafty Friends! I am happy to be sharing the first in a series of tutorials showing how to make 4 different sized album bases from 2 sheets of chipboard. This pretty beach themed is made using the 6 ½” x 6 ½” pieces cut from those 12 x 12 sheets of medium weight chipboard. My intention is to bring you one tutorial every week for four weeks…hopefully posting on Thursday, but, as I have realized with this posting, sometimes life and technology aren’t as cooperative as I would like, LOL! The next tutorial will be for the 5 ½” x 7 ½” mini album and I am so excited to see how that will turn out since I haven’t even begun working on it! 🤣 Thanks so much for embarking on this journey with me!

I misspoke in the tutorial and said they were 10mm.
