Hexagonal Pyramid Mini Album for my sweetheart  | Celes Gonzalo

Hexagonal Pyramid Mini Album for my sweetheart | Celes Gonzalo

Happy Tuesday! Hello everyone! I'm Celes and I'm sharing my first idea with the new Simply The Best Collection. It's such a beautiful collection that you can create any type of idea with it.

Hexagonal Pyramid Mini Album for my sweetheart 1This time I'm going to make a lovely pyramid mini album using the Nested Hexagons Die Set. Yes! It's a hexagonal pyramid mini album for my sweetheart... Sebas. Let's get started.

Hexagonal Pyramid Mini Album for my sweetheart2 We are going to need white cardstock as base and we are going to use the 10 pieces of the die set. We will use each piece to cut double pages.

Hexagonal Pyramid Mini Album for my sweetheart3Double pages: cut pieces of white cardboard considering twice the size of the die (you have 10 different sizes). Score and fold each paper in half and cut every doble page.

The size depends on the height of each double page. But they should always be a "U" with a 1/4" bend depth. To join them: glue each one to the back of each double page. Then, make a cut in the piece of design paper from the double page that continues in size so that you can join it. Repeat the same with all the pieces.

Remember that the smallest is only glued without a spine.

Once we have the entire structure assembled and decorated with the papers from the collection, we only have to use all our embellishments to decorate.

Closure of the mini album: the smallest page we will paste without a piece of spine. Inside it we will glue the closing hemp cord. The closure will be on the back of the last page using a brad and a piece of chipboard flair.
