Typeset Mini Album

Here is another mini album which I made using a True Fit File Folio as the base. I scored
it at 6 inches in each direction then opened it out so that it was 24x12 then folded up the bottom half - 
thus making a 24x6 piece which I think concertina folded to make this.
I used the Typeset Workshop on the Go to decorate it and added some of
the Silver Glitz Gel glue for even more sparkle :O)
I am going to give the main pieces - you can decorate it however you like :O)

  3. Stunning! I have one more True Fit Folio piece that I'm going to have to try this with. Question: Does it open up accordion style? Or is it bound and open up book sytle? Thanks so much for the inspiration!

  4. Lisa it is folded accordion style then I attached the spine so that it is like a book with one very fat middle page = which houses the 3 tags - one the 2nd and 3rd sections and one between the 2nd and 3rd. hope that makes some sort of sense :O)
