Mini album

I have not been doing very well at posting my work lately.  Don't know why except maybe laziness, and forgetting to photograph my work before I mail the card or give away the album!  In the past couple of weeks I have been working on a small (about 3 1/2 in. x 5 in.) interactive album and I actually remembered to take some photos this time!  It was fun to make, but I am a bit saddened by how tight I made the binding, so it is harder to open up than I would like.  It made it more difficult to photograph than I like, but I'll learn from this experience for the next one.  I will make a larger space between the spine and the front/back covers to allow for better opening ability.

But, that being said, here is the finished product:




There is a waterfall album on the inside of both the front and back covers and each of the 3 pages is full of interactive elements that you unfold or open up in some way.

I covered the spine with some hammered gold metallic paper which went very beautifully with the brown and yellow cover papers.
