CTMH Picture My Life Surf’s Up – Meander Book

Meander Book

The meander (or maze) book gets its name from the way the paper is cut and folded to make the pages. This size book is great for scrapbooking a single event! I used the CTMH Picture My Life Surf’s Up Cards to make this cute little album. Please let me know what you think and if the directions were helpful to complete the little fun mini album.

Instructions:
Take the 12 x 12 piece of scrapbook cardstock and mark at 3, 6 and 9 inches. Score and fold accordion style. Turn 90 degrees and do the same in the other direction. Your page should now be divided into 16 portions.

To create the pages you need to take a cutting knife and straight edge and cut from left to right across the first and third folds only as far as the last portion of the cardstock. Then cut the middle fold starting from right to left this time, but only as far as the last portion again.

Now to fold all the pages together. Starting at the top left corner fold each page accordion style until you get to the end, where you fold all of the folded pages underneath the first one on the second row. Keep folding accordion style and once again fold all of the pages underneath the first page on the following row. Repeat until you have all of the pages folded together.

Next take the smaller, 6-1/2 x 3″ cardstock and mark at 3″ and 3-1/2″ and score. Fold along the scored lines to make a cover for the book.

Adhere the front and back pages into the cover.

Now you are ready to decorate your mini scrapbook.

This is a squash booklet using CTMH Balloon Ride paper and Picture my life cards. Love to hear your comments. This post is photo intensive.

Here is a pattern that the project is very loosely based upon. Written directions available at: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/squash_book/#?printable=true. Lots of fun to make.

 

CTMH Laughing Lola Occasions Folio

I so enjoyed making this unique and wonderful Laughing Lola Occasions Folio to keep memories of the wonderful vacation season ahead with warmer temperatures. It uses the CTMH Picture My Life Laughing Lola Scrapbooking Cards and unfortunately retired CTMH Laughing Lola  Paper. This post is heavy with numerous pictures of the various section of the occasion folio.  I based this folio based on the Occasions Folio by Kathy Files of Paper Phenomenon in this YouTube. It was a present for someone special.
