Back in 2007, I shared a post on how to create a mini book from a single sheet of paper. I took that idea and ran with it using the technology I have at hand now: I created a cutting file for my Brother ScanNCut and made these two little books — each made from a single sheet of double-sided cardstock!
In the blue book I placed some tiny art prints. I left the other book blank — perfect for putting in some text or a few little photos!
Totally cute little books to give as gifts, don't you think? And because it's a cut file, I can actually create tons of books in no-time at all.
Check out the 2007 post for the basic instructions on creating a book from a single 8.5×11 sheet of paper!
Thanks for stopping by!

P.S. I was compensated by Brother to create this project, but the opinions and ideas are all my own!
Pretty cool for a gift especially.

Fancy!! Love how the contrasting side peek-a-boos through the cuts.

Cool! Thanks for that connection – very different looking in a finished work from the blank white paper of the demo. (p.s. I think the Scor-It link on that page may need to be updated)

Julie, is the layout for doing the cutting going to be available from Brother? Yours are the best instructions they have!
