Nature Sketchbook Folio ~ Mini Album with Video Walk-through and Tutorial

A couple of weeks ago, I shared this Nature Sketchbook Folio Cover and promised a video tutorial for the album that I made to go inside the folio - and (finally) here is the album and tutorial!

A complete video walk-through and tutorial on how to create the album's base is included in the video on my Youtube channel - so be sure to pop by for the details about the album!

Here are some photos of the folio and album. The measurements for the pages (as detailed in the video tutorial) are listed below as well.
