Mini Album tutorial as requested part 1

Hi everyone

Today I've got this beautiful mini album to share with you all. I shared this on my YouTube channel and I've had a lot of requests to do a tutorial on it.

I'm so pleased with how it turned out and I can't wait to fill it with photos.

The tutorial I am having to do in two parts as it's a huge project. The measurements I will be leaving below is for the cover and the mats.
The next part of the tutorial will be going out on Tuesday (hopefully) as that's my next day off from work.

So here are the measurements that you will need:

Chipboard
2 pieces measuring 6" x 6 1/2"
2 pieces measuring 6 1/2" x 5 1/2"
2 pieces measuring 6 1/2" x 1 1/8"
1 piece measuring 6 1/2" x 2 1/4"

Card (to cover the chipboard)
2 pieces measuring 8 1/2" x 8 1/4"
2 pieces measuring 8 1/2" x 7 7/8"

Card for hinges
2 pieces measuring 6 1/4" x 3. Score on the short side at 1", 1 1/2" and 2"

Card to cover middle spine
6 1/4" x 4"

Mats for all sections of the cover
4 pieces measuring 5 1/4" x 6 1/4"
4 pieces measuring 5 7/8" x 6 1/4"
2 pieces measuring 2 1/8" x 6 1/4"
2 pieces measuring 1 1/8" x 6 1/4"

I will leave a link below to my tutorial showing how to put this together.
