... I'm set for albums at the moment. These do look appealing, but if I needed albums, I think maybe I'd rather try Citrus Twist Kits albums. They have been on my wish list for a long time. Citrus Twist offers a beautiful array of album colors; unfortunately, they're not offered in 12x12, the only size I use.  |

Do you have go-to favorites, or do you buy a variety? It seems to me like there are a lot fewer manufacturers making 12" x 12" albums than there used to be. But I don't have a horse in that race any more, because I switched over to using smaller albums (to save space). I do miss scrapping 12"x12" but am content with scrapping 6"x8" under the circumstances. |

Since stocking up on black American Crafts cloth albums when they were discontinued/on clearance, I haven't purchased albums in about a decade! |

They have quite a variety of colors, and that is a good size.
I’ve made mini albums in a lot of different sizes, but very few minis with page protectors like these have. Part of the fun for me in making mini albums is to add flaps, fold outs, things that turn, slide, move, etc., (all things that I never do in my regular albums) and it just seems easier to do that without the page protectors.
I was looking through my completed mini albums earlier today. Most were chipboard based. I had made more minis than I thought.
So, do most here make mini albums for special events, to give away as gifts, or mostly as just a fun exercise in creativity?
Also, do you have a favorite basic mini album to decorate, do you make your own, or do you prefer the type shown at the start of this thread?

Sorry that I'm of no help, since I exclusively use 12x12 albums (containing a variety of sizes/configurations of page protectors) & have never created or purchased a mini album. |
