G45 Voyage Beneath the Sea Folio Album

For the first time in several years, I taught a class today!
(please click on photo to enlarge it)

I love this paper line, with the turquoise,
coral and green coloration.

The right side of the album has 7 waterfall flaps
and it has a pocket on the left with 3 slim tags

and one large tag.  You'll find lots of room
to journal and for your photos,
making it a great album for
your summer beach photos!


At the end of my post is a link to the YouTube video that inspired my album.  To make it easier for you, I'm including the measurements for the album here:
