Gatefold Album

This is a ‘take’ on the card that I made for my design team application. This time I added photos to make it into a small album that opens and stands impressively to display its beautiful photos. Below you will find one of the videos I made for my Design Team Application; it explains how to make this, go on, give it a go, it is super impressive and not that hard!
So here is the album fully, opened!

Below, you can see the front is closed with a simple belly band adorned with beautiful Kaisercraft Blooms.

The first opening reveals some beautiful papers and photos. Notice that I have limited my embellishments, anything too bulky and the album will not close nicely!

The story continues with more beautiful photos as you turn the pages.

When the album is opened and standing proud ….. it looks so impressive!

I hope you want to make one of these gorgeous gatefold albums; to help you I have made a step by step video, click on the video link below and see how I made the card base. I have decorated the card in the video with papers from the yet to be published ‘BoHo’ Collection. The good news is this stunning collection will be available in just a few weeks.

The pale gold foil is perfect and a bit understated which I love.  My second Card uses papers and embellishments from the Ephemera set.  I also used the Square Gentleman's corner die.
