Creative Elements Pocket Album
This is the Pocket Album I showed at convention -
The front is stamped with Creative Elements and has several Beau Chateau SIde Notes - and a vintage tag with an antique brad - to decorate. Here's the inside -
To make the album you need two 6 x 12 pieces of card stock (Pink Pirouette) scored in half for the covers and a 6 x 12 piece of card stock scored at every inch for the accordion middle. The cover is attached on each end of the accordion. Make 5 Petite Pockets (3 in Pink Pirouette and 2 in Marina Mist) and attach them to the exposed accordion folds. I added some inside pockets and some more Side Notes (because I just love them!)
Inside each pocket I put a note card like the one above. The ribbon to tie it closed is run through the back cover piece only. I used my hobby blade to cut a slit on the folded edge so it could run all the way through. Enjoy! Hugs, Fran

You are a genius to figure this album out - it is beautiful. I had to CASE it right away. Can't wait to use some of my stash of DSP for more albums.
