Fold Out Album Instructions


1. Begin with A4 peice of cardstock and fold this in half length way. Fold this in half once again and then take each half separately and fold these in half once more so you end up with accordian style pages/pockets. (see diagram below)


2. Fashion the pockets as shown on diagram below, tearing, cutting, punching holes where necessary.


3. Ink your pockets at this time if you wish


4. Use the brads to secure the pockets on pages one and four, use double sided tape for the remaining pockets along the fold lines


5. Add finishing touches and embellishments


6. for the covers, cover the chipboard peices with the patterned paper, attach ribbon underneath your embellishment on the front cover (only the front cover) then attach the covers to the centre accordian album


7. Embellish your tags and place inside your album


8. you have finished your gorgeous little album now ... congratulations!
