- Took few coin envelopes in kraft color, as its suits my pps much.
- Chopped off the flaps and matted with Patternpapers.
- Now the base of the album is made using Chipboard, following a simple basic album making procedure. And its matted on top using Patternpapers.
- The pp matted envelopes and non-matted ones are stacked together in an alternative fashion, and they are glued together just at their midlines. This gives accordion fashion look to the album. (check the pic)
- The front and back panel are glued with the first and last envelopes completely.
- Few tags are made as inserts here.
- The whole album is not embellished now, as you can fussycut, paperpiece all lovely elements from the paperpack itself.
- This gives a basic idea of the album made here.
