Paper poppy tutorial

Hi! Here's a tutorial on how to make your own little poppy flowers. I LOVE making my own embellishments. Its fun, saves a whole lotta money AND you can make them any colour you like!  I hope you'll give it a try too.

Quick and Easy Mini Album Tutorial

I just completed my FIRST tutorial and its currently uploading to YouTube. I'm feeling brave lol!
The tutorial is for this cute little Mini Album.

The covers are 9 by 5 and the paper pack I used was Bundle of Joy by Echo Park.

Here are the measurements:

Interior pages: using a 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper. Score at 4 1/2 and 9 turn the paper to the short side and score at the 8 inch mark making a half inch for the binding.

Fold the 1/2 inch binding back and forth. With the binding to your left bend the small flap up and the large flap down. If your planning on rounding corners do so now. Then glue the small flap on both ends to make the small pocket. Turn the paper over. For the page with the flap cut from the bottom of the binding up to the 4 1/2 mark, this makes your flap for the three photo mats. To make the pocket  just glue down the binding and along the bottom to create the large pocket.

To mat the pages; cut from patterned paper

small pocket 1 3/4 by 7 3/4

behind pocket 2 1/2 by 7 3/4

large photo mats and large pocket 4 1/4 by 7 3/4

Large tags are 7 1/2 by 3 3/4 mat is 7 1/4 by 3 1/2 

Small tags are 3 1/4 by 4 1/2 mat is 3 by 4 1/4
