I made this small album from just one sheet of folded paper. I wrote out these instructions years ago and finally decided to give it a go. To be honest I was just "trying it out" so didn't put as much effort into it as I usually would. However I'm pleased with the results and will definitely be making some more.
I made the album for Brian and it contains a few lines from my favourite poem. The whole thing was very quick and easy to make so if you're looking for a project you can complete in one short sitting, give it a go.
I've scanned the instructions and hope they are easy enough to understand.

HINT - I would suggest you first practice with a piece of scrap paper, just in case you make a mistake ... no point in ruining your good paper. And while we're on the subject of paper, don't use cardstock to make this album. It's too thick and the pages won't line up once they are folded. I used some cheap 180gsm smooth watercolour paper and it was the perfect thickness. Thinner paper would work just fine too.
