How to Make a Fall Pop Up Mini Album

How adorable is this little Fall mini album!? The style of this design is called a circular album, not because the cover is round but because it pops up and folds out to form a round circle of pages when you look down on it. Created with digital dies from Lori Whitlock (that can be cut with electronic die cutting machines like a Cricut or Silhouette) this album is fill with Autumn pattern papers, cute animal stickers, leaves, pumpkins and lots of sentiments and ties closed with ribbon.

You can find step by step and video tutorials on how to put this album together over at the Lori Whitlock blog.

This isn’t a free resource but it’s 31 pages all about toucans, their life cycle, anatomy, what they eat, role in the rainforest ecosystem, activities and more well worth the cost.
