Hello scrappy friends, happy Monday! Speaking of Monday, I just finished a live MAKE WITH ME MONDAY showing how to create this quick & easy Circle Accordion Mini Album! Once you learn how to make the base, you can change the patterns, colors, collection, attach two or three bases back-to-back, decorate both sides, and so many other ways to change and adapt this project for your needs!
You can watch the replay below:

Here is an explanation of all the files in the Circle Accordion Mini Album Dropbox folder and to create this mini album you’ll need one circle accordion mini album base sized at 11½” across, 9 wedges (sized about 3¾x5”), and one photo wedge template printed out for making shaped photos:
PE-circle-accordion-mini-album-base.studio3 - this is the file to use to cut the mini album base from your chosen patterned paper or cardstock if you have a Silhouette Cameo.
PE-circle-accordion-mini-album-base.svg - this is the file to use to cut the mini album base from your chosen patterned paper or cardstock if you have a Cricut or Brother.
PE-circle-page-1.pdf / PE-circle-page-2.pdf / PE-circle-page-3.pdf - if you do not have an electronic cutting machine, you will need to print these three PDF templates at 100% on regular 8½x11” printer paper (the thinner the better) and we piece them together during the live to be able to create the mini album base by hand.
PE-photo-wedge.pdf - print this out at 100% onto 8½x11” paper, the thicker the better, to use for cutting wedge-shaped photos.
PE-wedges.pdf - if you do not have an electronic cutting machine, print this template at 100% on regular 8½x11” printer paper to cut out 9 wedges from your chosen patterned papers. The dots are the templates for poking holes for hand stitching which is optional.
PE-wedges.studio3 - this is the file to use to cut the 9 wedges from your chosen patterned papers if you have a Silhouette Cameo. You can choose to cut the wedges with or without stitching holes, both styles are included in this file.
PE-wedges.svg - this is the file to use to cut the 9 wedges from your chosen patterned papers if you have a Cricut or Brother. You can choose to cut the wedges with or without stitching holes, both styles are included in this file.
*If you resize anything you'll need to resize all the pieces together so that they fit.*

PATTERNED PAPERS I USED:
Mini Album Base - Paper 10 and 9 Wedges - Paper 2, Paper 9, Paper 15, Paper 18, Paper 20, Paper 22 and 3 patterns from the 12x12 Project Pad (dark pink, purple checkered, and pink plaid).
