Instructions: Construct 5 X 7" layered card (White) then cut designer paper for each side of each page. Distress all the edges of all pages. Sort the panels with the largest oval on top and nesting to the smallest oval. Select the papers from Festive Holly Collection that you want to use on each panel. You may want to coordinate the panels that face each other when each page is opened. To create the windows, tape down the selected designer papers back to back, align the Eyelet Oval and Basic Large Die and run through the die cutting machine. The papers were glued to all the pages on all the sides using appropriate nesting oval die, except the last page which is solid. I also cut an oval frame on white cardstock using two oval dies.
The back side of the album has a pocket which can hold tags for journaling and photo mats. A decorative border was cut from a smooth white card stock which is then glued on the top of the tags and photo mats. On the second last page, cut some tags, layer them outwards as shown and tie a seam binding ribbon (painted using Festive Berry) to add an extra accent to the project.
