A few months ago I saw this tutorial for a Mini Album. Since then I have been collecting the sleeves whenever I see different ones, with this idea in mind. At a local coffee shop I found completely plain sleeves. I basically followed the directions in the video, but altered slightly for my coffee sleeve and used Traci & Lauren Grier’s new kit, CYa L8r Bo that came out this weekend.
Here are my supplies (although I ended up printing out some extra pages and a few sheets of paper for the cover & inside.)

I decided to cover the front and inside of my coffee sleeve. I simply used the sleeve as a template to cut the printed paper to the correct shape (like in the video), then used some 3M Photo Glue to attach them.

I used some rough measurements to create my inside digital pages in photoshop, then used the sleeve as a template again to cut them out. I glued the white “backs” of the pages together and trimmed the pages to fit inside the sleeve so nothing extended outside the coffee sleeve. I added some ribbons and embellishments, then put 2 holes in the pages with my crop-a-dile and threaded a longer ribbon thru tho tie them together.

Then I threaded the ribbon thru the enlarged holes I made in the coffee sleeve.

I tied my ribbon and then added a few extra ribbons and embellished the cover.

Here is another shot of the inside pages

I completed the whole project within a few hours. These would make really fun simple gifts to give friends and family. If you have any more questions on how to make these please let me know.
Till next time, happy scrapping!
