8 1/2 x 8 1/2 - 4 page Mini Album Base

8 1/2 x 8 1/2 Mini album Base
This album can be made with either 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 or 8 1/2 x 8 1/4. It will only affect the cover of the album the hinge and pocket pages will not change.

I had originally made my albums a 1/4 inch shorter and at some point decided that a square would be easier thus the 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 cut list below.

Pocket Pages (I recommend holding off on page installation until you have decorated your pages, this allows you to work on a more flap surface and will reduce wear and tear on you cover).
