BONUS Double Pocket Page for Landscape Memory Book

Here is a new page fold you can choose to add to your Large Landscape Portrait Memory Books. You could also create new Landscape Memory Books by using the same cover and hinge measurements but by adding this new page for a totally new look.

 

You will see below I have filmed a Step-by-Step Instructional Video for you to follow. For convenience, I have filmed 2 videos, one in metric for those who like to use centimetres, and the other in imperial for those of us who choose to use inches.

I first shared this idea on the Craft Show on 22nd November 2021.
If you would like to do the tutorials, click here and I will take you Step-by-Step through putting it together

Metric – centimetre version

Imperial – inches version

8×8 Gatefold Trifold Mini Album


This gorgeous 8×8 Gatefold Trifold Mini Album is the perfect Keep Sake Mini Album.
This has been made as a sample for the up and coming Pink Frog One Day Special Shows over on Hochanda TV Friday 12th March 2021 until Saturday 13th March 2021.
I have used the Pink frog 20cm x 40cm Super Smooth Cardstock and the Brand New Spring Flowers and Typewriter Sentiments Stamps.

The Album itself is really quick to make so gather your supplies and lets make this super quick Mini Album.

The measurements are,

Cut one sheet of card at 20cm so you have 2 pieces of 20cm x 20cm.
Score another piece of card at 9cm & 10cm on either end and burnish the score lines.
Now stick the 2 square of card to the flaps on each end of the piece you have just scored, this is your cover.
Take the next 3 sheets of card and score each one at each end in 10cm and burnish the score lines.
Watch the video if you wish to add the shaped pockets to your project.
Once you have cut shapes (optional) you can stick the 2 end flaps of the centre card to the out side ones.
now stick the middle large panel to the cover you have created.
Attach your ribbon fastening and you are ready to decorate.

Decorating your Album with Patterned Papers.

Patterned Paper sizes.
Large panels are 19cm x 19cm
Small panels are 9cm x 19cm
to cut shaped pockets see my video as I show you 2 different techniques to do this.
