“Hi Graphic 45ers! It’s Paul back again with my latest Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador project. When I first saw the Scenic Route papers, I spotted two sheets that had images in blocks. This means that they can be cut up to make quick album covers. So for this project, I chose the 8×8 collection as I saw a nice tall slim portion to one of the papers and figured out my dimensions from there. Whilst figuring it out, I was thinking what else would work with the tall, slim style and I thought about the large Graphic 45 tags and they ended up being ideal to slip inside the pockets.
I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do…
Here is the cutting guide, all scoring is explained in the video.” ~Paul Ford
