Memories Flip Fold Album

Hi everyone, a couple of weeks ago I posted some photos of an album I was working on using the new Flip Fold albums and inserts from Heartfelt Creations and today I get to share with you the finished project.  I used the Arianna Blooms paper collection.

It's so easy to make an interactive album with the Flip Fold inserts and pockets, no more spending hours and hours figuring out the engineering of the project, instead you get to go directly to the decorating and embellishing.
I made the flowers with the Arianna Blooms stamps and coordinating dies.
As you can see, lots of pockets and inserts for all your photos.
Hope you enjoyed my album and thank you for your visit.
