Lynne's "PS. I Love You" Fold over album with double spines inside.

Using the Mini fold over album kit, with “Nutcracker Sweet” papers from Graphic 45.

Pic 1 - Shows all parts covered with black frame tiger tape, the front, back and fold over I used the 25mm thickness of tape. For the spines I used the 50mm thickness of black frame tiger tape to ensure the grey board was covered.

 

Pic 2 - Shows the constructed album. I used the 50mm black frame tape to put the album pieces together. 

 

Pic 3 - Shows the spine covers in place as well as card covering the front/back and fold over parts.

Cover the following cover parts with card.

To cover spines 2 @ 4^7/8” x 4¼” (H x W).

To cover inside front/ back cover 5½” x 7½”.

To cover inside fold over 5½” x 1¾”.

Extended spine format used.

Spines – Cut  2 @ 4^7/8” x 2^3/4”.

I then scored at ½” & 1” inch each long side. 

 

 

Pic 4 - Shows the placement of spines for left and right. It is not necessary to put patterned paper on the spine covers and spines, it’s a quirk of mine.

The left spine placement is 7/16" in from the outside edge of the spine.

The right spine placement is 3/8" in from the inside edge of the spine. 

 

Pocket pages – 4^7/8”x 6^7/8” finished size. I cut my card to 5^3/8” x 6^7/8” and scored at ½”. Once I had glued the pieces together to form 4 pocket pages, I used black frame tape to cover the joins. 

 

Pic 5 shows - the pocket pages.

 

There will be more from Lynne next month so you have plenty of time to get creating the first section before the next blog post.

 

Happy New Year to Everyone and Happy Crafting.
