Last year Stampin’ Up! created a super cute brag book template that was wallet sized. It was a very popular creation and I thought I’d make a bigger version for a gift for my Grandma. This can be done in so many colour combinations for so many reasons. It makes a perfect gift and the best part it is super fast too!

Instructions: Step 1. Cut the envelopes to measure 5 ½ inches in length. Make sure you cut the open end of the envelope.

Step 2. Using the 1 ¼ inch circle punch, punch half of a circle through the two layers of envelope. This will make sliding the cardstock in and out of the envelope much easier.

Step 3. Adhere the Taken With Teal DSP to the backside of the Purely Pomegranate DSP. Have approximately ½ an inch showing and the other ½ inch adhered to the Pomegranate DSP.

Step 4. Using the corner rounder, scallop the edge of the Taken With Teal DSP. Start by punching a partial scallop. Progress across the paper by lining up the scallop so your corner edges just barely overlap then punch.

Step 5. Adhere the Purely Pomegranate DSP to the flap of the Old Olive Cardstock. The Pomegranate is adhered to the 2 inch flap for extra strength and stability. Step 6. Adhere the flap of the package to the body of the package. I used Sticky Strip to guarantee the project to hold tight. Step 7. Crease the 3 ½ x 2 inch pieces of DSP in the middle (1 inch). Adhere the one inch flap to the unopened end of the envelopes. Step 8. Adhere the other side of these DSP flaps to the body of the package. This will create a flap so you can flip the envelopes over. Adhere the tabs to the cardstock pieces. Now you are ready to fill the album with photos! You can fit 9 (or even 12 if you put photos on the front and back of your pull outs!) 3 ¼ x 5 ¼ photos in this book!!!
