TUTORIAL - Folio Album - Blank Base

 HELLO EVERYBODY!

 Some time ago, I showcased a folio album named 'Retro Feelings' on my YouTube channel, and your feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Many of you expressed interest in a tutorial, and I have heard your requests. So, here we are, ready to dive into this tutorial.

Usually, when preparing tutorials, I combine two activities - I create an album base and immediately decorate it with scrapbooking paper. However, this time, the tutorial will be slightly different. I will show you how to create the folio album but only the blank base. The scrapbooking paper I choose to decorate the album will be used only where necessary.

Although the folio album is not large, measuring 16cm x 22cm, it can accommodate many photos. This makes it an exciting and practical solution for every photography enthusiast and collector. 
 
You will find the tutorial on my YouTube channel: 
 

 I would also like to hear your opinion on this type of tutorial. Do you prefer tutorials where I create and decorate a project at the same time, or do you like the format I prepared today? Please share your thoughts. 
 
I will be back soon with the final decorated album. 
 

CHEERS!

But after some troubleshooting, I finally got everything sorted out.    Folio album - blank base Vintage-style folio album Vintage-style folio album So, here we are, and I cannot wait to dive into this tutorial with you!

HELLO EVERYBODY! In my previous tutorial (please see the last post dated July 8, 2024), I showed you how to make a blank base for a folio album. Today, I will walk through the finished and decorated album and show you the final reveal. I hope you will like it!    The album's dimensions are 22cm x 16cm (8.6in x 6.3in), with a spine of 4cm (1.6in). It can hold approximately 50 to 70 photos, depending on their arrangement. The album is designed for photos sized 10cm x 15cm (3.9in x 5.9in), 9cm x 13cm (3.5in x 5.1in) or smaller.    The album is ideal for collecting photos from travel and summer holidays.

Because of its compact size and flexible layout, it is a quick, easy, and versatile way to preserve memories.      There are several ways to store your photos in the folio. You can put them in the pockets or attach them to the flaps, booklets, or photo mats. Three cards, two smaller booklets...
