We love a good pre-made album in the world, the hard work is already done so you can just have fun. That is just what Teresa Cruz aka Andor Violeta has done with our Rectangle Tag & Pocket Album. Teresa has added a fabulous pop-up mechanism to the pages making this a Twist & Pop Album. Watch it come together in her video tutorial and then take the tour of this gorgeous album. We hope you enjoy this technique and try it out yourself, it works great in cards too!

Twist and Pop-up page album with ABC Primer

By Teresa Cruz aka Andor Violeta

“Hi everyone!

Today I have an album that I made for my father. The album is the pre-made rectangle tag & pocket album from graphic 45 in black, which I decorated with ABC Primer. I know you can’t get this collection now, but maybe you were waiting for the right moment, or the right inspiration, to take those gorgeous papers out for you to play with and for everyone to see how beautiful they are. Or maybe you can grab any new or deluxe collection that you have and try to make something like this. So this one I made as a surprise to give to my father that used to be a teacher.

I have to tell you my favorite tutorial for this one, twist and pop, where I learn how to make it, is from my friend Kathy Clement, and you can find it here.

I made my own tutorial for you to follow for this project, but I have to mention I learn from her, and with her method, I find it is so easy to follow.

Are you a fan of the graphic 45 trims? I’m totally a fan, I use them all the time. They are gorgeous and give this special touch to the projects. Here you can see I use both sizes, one for the closure and one for embellishment on the cover. If you didn’t try yet, go grab some, you have many different colours.

So I hope you find this project inspiring. I don’t have the photo of the Twist and pop page, but you can see it here on the video that I prepared for you, where you can see the tutorial and flip Through. Enjoy!
