Celebr8 Thankful Heart Mini Album Designed by Sandi Kok for Celebr8.
You will need: Celebr8 Thankful Heart Mini Paper Pack Double-sided tape (DST)
Celebr8 Mini Album kit (Base album) 2 x Graphite cardstock
2 x Sunflower cardstock A4 sheet acetate
Brilliance Galaxy Gold 1m Thin piece of white ribbon.
Scoreboard Bone folder
Paper trimmer / craft knife Small, sharp scissors for fussy cutting
1 x Small gold brad 1mm Foam tape for shaker box ( cut in ½ lengthwise).
Important Information, please read carefully before you start. • All measurements are given in centimetres.
• Measurements are given width x height.
• Cut all your base pages first and keep all the bits for matting and making tags etc.
• Please note which side of the pattern paper is used! Large format photos of each page can be
found in the cutting guide.
• Cut fussy cutting element sheets as follows:
o PP6119 Fussy cut elements sheet – cut both sheets.
o PP6118 Tags, circles and tabs – cut one sheet.
o PP6114 Sentiments – choose a few from one of the sheets – I used the following:
▪ The 3 sunflowers in a jug (pg 2)
▪ Single sunflower on black script (pg 3)
▪ The word “Love” (pg 12)
▪ Use balance of paper for matting etc.
o PP6116 Choose the Journaling cards that appeal to you. You will need to keep 2 of them as a
strip (pg 13)
• Ensure that you use good quality double-sided tape.
• DST = double-sided tape AS = Advertising strip (barcode)
• RHS = Right hand side LHS = Left hand side
• PP = Patterned Paper
Album Cover (use photos below to assist)
• From graphite cardstock, cut 2 identical pieces measuring 18cm x 22cm.
• Join these 2 pieces of cardstock together to create a single piece of cardstock measuring 36cm x
22cm.
• Adhere DST around the outside edge of the hardboard as well as a few strips in the centre of the
hardboard.
• Starting with the spine, place it in the centre (top and bottom and left to right {approx. 2cm border
all around}) of this newly created “outer cover”, then add a piece of 6mm tape on either side of the
2
spine (you need this gap to stop the spine from tearing) before attaching the covers in line with the
base of spine.
• Pop some DST all around the outer edge of the cardstock. Mitre corners, remove DST and fold
cardstock in to complete the outer cover.
• From PP6109, cut a piece that measures 15cm x 16,7cm for the front inside cover and stick DST
around the outer edges on the wrong/plain side. Make sure that you cut the paper so that you have
the little image in your cut piece.
• From PP6108, cut a piece that measures 15cm x 16,7cm for the back inside cover and stick DST
around the outer edges on the wrong/plain side. Make sure that you cut the paper so that you have
the little image in your cut piece.
• To stop your inside covers from bulging, you will need to do the following:
o Add a strip of 12mm tape on each side of the 6mm DST on the hard board (4 pieces in total
running from top to bottom of the spine).
o Add another strip of tape to the spine.
o Add 2 strips of tape to the inside covers to assist with anchoring the pattern paper.
• Carefully remove the DST from the hardboard, including the DST from the 6mm gap between the
hardboard and the pattern paper, and attach the inside covers to both front and back.
• Make up the base pages as per the instructions in the Celebr8 Mini Album Kit and adhere to the
mini album.
• See photos below – (I have used white cardstock in the instructions, however, your will be using
Graphite cardstock for your base album)

Decorating the Front Cover and spine
• From PP6111, cut a piece measuring 12cm x 16,5cm – this is your “base page”.
• Sunflower cardstock, cut a piece measuring 10cm x 14cm – this will form the mat to your frame.
• From kraft, cut a piece measuring 9cm x 13cm. Measure in 1cm from the outer edge and draw a
line. Cut out the inner rectangle so that you are left with a frame.
• From PP6113, cut a piece measuring 12cm x 15cm. This will be used to cover your kraft paper
frame. Stick your frame onto the wrong side of the piece of paper. Cut a diagonal from inner corner
to inner corner as seen in

• Apply DST around the outer edge as well as the inner edge. Remove the excess paper from the
middle of the frame as seen below. Mitre corners! Score around the outside and the inside of the
kraft frame and then fold the PP inwards to create a frame – start with the long sides. Remember to
“tuck” the corners so that you get a perfect finish!
• Cut a piece of acetate to 8,5cm 12,5cm. Adhere to the back of the frame using 1mm double-sided
foam tape as seen below. I used a full 12mm piece along the bottom but cut the piece for the sides
in half lengthwise. Once complete, adhere to front of album. Add one of the fussy cut elements of
your choice as well as the chippie, “Something Beautiful”.
• From the white cardstock, cut a piece measuring 7cm x 12cm. Adhere a photo to both and the front
of this piece so that you can change your cover simply by switching around the white cardstock
mat.
