Photo Album

Step 1
Cut 3 10x10 pieces of cardstock. I used 2 white and 1 red for this project. Also cut 2 5 1/2 pieces and 2 5 1/4 pieces.

Step 2
Score the 3 10x10 pieces at 5" horizontally, vertically and once diagonally. Stamp snowflakes all over both sides of cardstock.

Step 3
Glue the 3 pieces together so that they look like the picture above on the top right.

Step 4
Fold the photo album like an accordion. The diagonal points should meet in the middle. It will feel like it is fighting against you but will settle after it has been tied together.

Step 5
Cut 2 pieces of ribbon at 15" each. Using mono tape, glue one to each side of the folded album in the middle.

Step 6
Stamp snowflakes all over the 5 1/2" cardstock on one side. Using mono tape, adhere to the smaller 5 1/4 cardstock. Fold over the edges and make a cover for the smaller pieces. Glue down the 5 1/4" pieces on each side of the album and tie the ribbon together.

Step 7
On a scratch piece of cardstock, stamp the truck and tree and numbers for the year you want to add to the cover. Color using watercolor pencils and blender pens. Glue down on the front of the card.

Stamps used for this are Loads of Love, Snow flurries and Headline Numbers.
