I am beyond thrilled to share this amazing album made by my sister Di! There are 69 places for photos or for journaling and it took my sister 12 days to complete this gorgeous book that measures 8 x 28 inches when fully opened.
The book is gatefold style (opens from both sides) and has a very intricate binding system and amazing pockets. It even has a waterfall card and much more! It was impossible to take photos that showed all of her amazing details so I decided to show you the entire book in the following video. Also included on the video is a quick demo of how to make a basic binding using duct tape. Next time my sister comes for a visit we will make a detailed video on how she made this incredible book.
The camera lens is really a mini book. Wow! Most of the papers are from the Graphic 45 Steampunk Debutante collection and DCWV La Crème collection. In addition, she used several free graphics from GraphicFairy.com and Tim Holtz Idea-ology elements. This is only a one page, sneak peek from her amazing book. You won't believe how many hidden pages there are in this book. Be sure to watch the video below to see the entire project, including how to make a basic binding using duct tape. You will love her book!
A special thanks to my sister for sharing her amazing work with me. Also my sister would like to give a special shout out to Cynthialoowho’s YouTube channel for her video on how to make a binding using duct tape! Also a special thanks to Anne from Annes Papercreations for all her inspiration!
Have a great day.

Your sisters album is breathtaking. I have never seen a book more stunning. I can hardly wait to see the video you two will make.
Wow this album is beyond amazing... such detail!
The album your sister made is AWESOME!!! Wow! I love books like that! I especially LOVE the waterfall page!
Wow that album is incredible!!! It is so filled with terrific tidbits, large and small. It is like opening presents each time you turn a page. What a magnificent gift!!! I can't wait to see the video the two of you make!!!
This is so cool! I love it that your sister crafts too. I recently got my sis into it. Sometimes we're up all night!
I absolutely love this album. Making albums are a new found interest and can't wait to make my first. I love the waterfall card inside. Have you created any videos on this technique? I will be sure to stay tuned for to see the video with you sister. Best!
This is one of the most gorgeous Mini Albums I have seen. Your sister is incredibly talented. Have never tried a duct tape binding, but now that I have seen how gorgeous and durable it is, I am sure this will soon become a favorite. Can't wait to see your sisters tutorial on how she combined two together for the larger albums. g45 collections are just fabulous in my book, and steam punk debutante was a favorite of mine. It's a shame it is no longer available.
How wonderful that the two of you have the same interest and artistic abilities to share.
Hugs,
Marcie
