Pineapple mini book + FREE cut file.

With summer in the air & this weeks focus being on ‘Fancy Cuts’, I thought you, as loyal FP fans, might enjoy a FREE cut file & mini book idea.

Using the gorgeous Summer Sun collection, I created this Pineapple shaped mini book, I know you will love!

Pineapple Mini Book by Kim Watson 

To create the cute pineapple shaped covers, I layered yellow & orange plain papers which can be found on the reverse sides of the Summer Sun patterned papers. I used the aqua papers for the leaves & cut pineapple slices in x2 sizes, layering them together with buttons for the decorative flower. Twine & a fewephemera complete the arrangement, with a title cut from another brag card.

The inside pages are brag cards inserted into a folded paper strip, concertina style. SEE my post here for a FULL TUTORIAL. Just add photos, simple embellishments & journaling.

Here are a few of the inside pages, to give you an idea of how less is more when designing these decorative kinds of mini albums. I still want to add a few journaling strips, but the simple embellishments, definitely keep the focus on the photographs.

Here is another close up of the cover…and you are all done! This pineapple is sure to be a showstopper on your summer mantel!

As promised, here is the FREE Pineapple Mini Book cut file.
