How to create a journaling cards mini album

Attach two 8" x 12" double sided cardstock pieces lengthwise to create a large 15" x 12 size paper.

Arrange three chipboard pieces - two 6 1/4" x 4 1/4" pieces and one 6 1/4" x 1 1/2" piece on the double sided cardstock leaving a 1/4" gap between them.

Wrap the cover with the paper. After the glue is dry close the cover gently.

Take a 5 3/4" x 12" solid cardstock piece. Score on: 3", 3 1/2", 4", 4 1/2", 4 3/4", 5 1/4", 5 1/2", 6", 6 1/2", 6 3/4", 7 1/4", 7 3/4", 8", 8 1/2", 9".

Glue the two sides of each pyramid together.

Apply glue on bottom of binding mechanism and attach to the center of cover and the sides. After the glue is dry close the cover gently.
