Yikes! I had a busy weekend folks. Sorry I didn't get this posted sooner!
Tonight, I’m sharing this AMAZING double-stack folio book that I made on Thursday night. I was so happy that the design I came up with actually worked out perfectly! I thought the Storybook Moments and Timeless Plaid papers go so well together, and they are perfect for this folio! I didn't do too much to the front cover. Until I know what pictures I'll add...I'm keeping it minimal.
Finished size of the folio is 4” x 8” x 1”. I think you could easily put 15-20 pictures in this folio, depending on how you print/trim your pictures. Lots of room!
Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET. I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously. NOTE: Facebook has been sporadically giving me fits lately, so I recommend viewing on YouTube.
If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube. If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it on YouTube.
I used only cardstock and designer series paper to make this folio. No chipboard. Using the Art Glitter (or Bearly Art, whichever is your favorite) glue makes any project a little bit sturdier. You will definitely have to watch the video to see how to assemble this book, but I’m including all of the paper measurements along with a few pictures.
The book opens with basically a folio on the left, and a folio on the right. Both are exactly the same, just opposite.

Thanks for visiting, and Happy stamping!
