Animal Crackers Pocket Album Tutorial

How are we all doing today! I hope all

is well especially now that summer is

in full gear.

Today we will be putting together a pocket

album which is super easy and fun!

With a few simple supplies this

album turns out stunning.

Let's begin!!!

Select a few sheets of 12x12 paper which

will in turn be your pockets.

Evenly measure out 4 inches across which

will render 3 strips that will create pockets. It is totally up to you

how many pockets you want in

your album.

Take one of your strips and score/fold about

6 1/2 in mark horizontally.

Measure about 1/2" in on both sides

vertically also scoring/folding at marks.

It looks like so:

At the horizontal folds cut both corners

in an angle like so (see photo). This will make it

easier to fold the sides in clean and neat.

Apply glue to the insides of the 6 1/2 in. sides

and adhere down.

To the other sides, apply glue to the

outside of the sides, fold in half, and adhere

to the other end.

It will look like this!

Easy, right!?

Now gather the rest of the strips and 

repeat the same steps.

If you desire, a half hole can be cut out

of the shorter end of pocket to

create a notched look.

Make sure that it is cut out first

before adhering. 

After all the pockets are dry break out

your Bind-it-All and start punching away.

After assembly, you will have your

very own pocket album to

embellish to your heart's content.

The pockets also serve as extra places for

pictures, notes, etc.!!!

Here is what I did with mine:

                                        I love the end result. Now this album is ready for some
                                                                     great memories.
