A project from our live show IDEAL WORLD - Join Toni for the latest Stamps By Me product launch - Broadcast Wed 21st May 12 p.m. · 05/21/2025 · watch it from 10:00

Create a charming mini album with multiple pockets using die-cut pages and decorative elements. This keepsake album features vintage-style embellishments in soft pinks, creams and metallics, with hinged pages that open to reveal pockets perfect for holding photographs, memorabilia, or small treasures like tea bags. The project uses simple assembly techniques including hinging pages together and creating functional pockets from folded die-cut elements.
Run the die-cut album page through your die-cutting machine to create the hinge and basic page shape. The die will cut the folios with decorative edges and score lines for folding.
