beach minibook with the pier

I created a little minibook to document our beach trip using the Crate Paper Pier collection for the Crate blog. Minibooks are fun to make and the perfect way to document a vacation! 

Here's a look at the finished minibook - 

The prep was easy because I created a silhouette cut file for the base pages. You can download the free .studio file here. 

If you are cutting your pages manually, the dimensions are 5.75x4.25 inches. Score a line one inch from the left side. Punch a hole for the ribbon about one inch from the top and bottom centered in the one-inch section.

Once I had my pages ready and my cover completed, I printed my photos at 2.5" square and gathered embellishments to match my pages. 

I created each page with a photo and embellishments from The Pier. The last page includes a pocket from the Party Day collection that I filled with journaling about our trip.

Once I was done with the inside, I tied the pages together with a ribbon. Here's the finished minibook!

I love to make minibooks, but they are usually very time consuming. This one came together much faster than the others I've made. That's a good thing because I always have more ideas for scrapbooking than I have time!
