I know it is hard to come up with something that is suitable for the masculine side of the spectrum. I thought I would post this small folio also.

This would make a perfect mini travel folio for a special trip or adventure. It is in shades of brown, it could be masculine or feminine. It folds out to hold up to 10 –4 x 6 photos. The front has a beautiful nautical star in gold foil.  The base is kraft colored cardstock matted with decorative paper. It has a ¾ inch spine on left, folds open with a ¼ inch spine on each side to allow space for pictures and low decorations. Overall size is 4 ½ x 6 ½ x ¾.

Thought I would post another of my ‘Mini Photo Albums’. This one is a generous size 6 ½ x 6 ½ with a spine of 1½. It has 3 interactive pages although they each have flaps and pockets, so you get plenty of space, I have counted at least 16+ for pictures and journaling. The covers and spine are of chipboard covered with cardstock then matted with decorative paper. The pages will fit up to a 4 x 6 easily maybe with a little trimming. Base is in black cardstock, the decorative paper is feather background with purple, rose, teal, green all coordinating nicely. Front has a black suede paper swirl with silver butterflies. I have left the inside for you to decorate as to the occasion of the album.

I hope this is enough for you to get the idea of how they are constructed, this is one place your imagination can run wild. Sometimes mine does.

I have been working on some 'Mini Photo Albums and Folio's'. I have made several of these for family members and sold some of the smaller ones on my Etsy shop they are so fun to make. They are ready for you to place your pictures in and decorate each page for the occasion. I will be listing a few of these in the days to come if you see anything you are interested in please let me know. 

I have used coordinating paper in each of these, not specifically a set. I go with the saying of 'use what you have'. These are small enough that each one can be used for an occasion. I have made recipe, baby, wedding, family, several just general.

This folio is 4 1/2 x 6, has 6 pages and a pocket page. Would be wonderful for a day trip or special day. Main colors are lavender and green with a touch of teal. Front is a die cut so picture behind will show.

After a cold grey start this morning, the sun is trying to shine and there is at least some blue sky showing. I have been working on another set of cards for my kit category, these are very masculine. There are Fathers Day, Birthday, Sympathy, and of course any occasion. Take a look at these over in my Etsy shop - https://www.etsy.com/shop/AllThingsNecessary?ref=seller-platform-mcnav&section_id=23480923 - let me know what you think.   (SOLD)

These are not put together, they are just in layout mode as to how I would finish with these choices. However the finished product is up to you, mix and match away. Make it your style, you will need your favorite adhesive and basic supplies.
                                                                                                                    Enjoy!

I listed a couple more 'Card Kits' on my Esty shop this morning. They are very feminine and would be great for any of the lovely ladies on your greeting card list. These I have not made a finished card they are all different, I have listed a layout of what I would make if I were doing it.

                                                                                                             I hope you enjoy these sets.
