Hope you enjoy and make sure to share with us on our Facebook Page, we love to see your creations.
Start with 2 pieces of chipboard that are cut at 7 1/2x5 inches. Mark 1/2" from the end on the long side and cut this part away. I use tyvek to tape between my pieces so that they would not come apart. This is just a very strong envelope, that you get through the mail sometimes that has the fibers through it. Those that you can't tear...that is it.
To cover the chipboard I use cardstock that is 9 1/2x7 inches cut two of these.
The pages are cut at 7x5 inches and you will need to score at 1/2" on the long side.
Mats for the pages are cut at 6 1/4"x4 3/4"
Cut two pieces of cardstock that are 5x12" and 1 piece that is 5x6 1/2" score on all at every 1/2", accordion fold and glue the ends together.
Mats for the inside covers are cut at 6 3/4x4 1/2 inches, cut two more the same size for the inside covers.
I use seam binding to put mine together, but you can use twine, ribbon, or whatever you would like.
When putting your pages in you can glue them or just put them in with your ribbon or twine. You will put one on the second mountain and then skip 3 mountains, then another and skip 3 and another and so forth.
Hope you give it a try.
Enjoy E
What is the name of the white strips you put on the chipboard so they would bend. Thank you.
