Immortal Love Mini Album and Tag Pull Tutorial

I just got this paper stack a couple of days ago and I LOVE IT!  It is by DCWV and it is called the Immortal Love Stack.   This line is Twilight/Vampire/Immortal love themed, and it is wonderful!!  I am a huge fan of Vampires (they are my favorite "monster"), Gary Oldman in Bram Stoker's "Dracula" being my all-time favorite!! I have to admit that I am probably the only one left who hasn't seen the Twilight movies, but Jackie is going to loan them to me! Right now, I am watching all of the Dark Shadows episodes that my hubbin got me.  It started a couple of years ago, and just last night I started the last of the DVD sets.  Woopsie, I am getting off of the subject...

I used the same technique as the Triple Fold, Never Ending Envelope Book.  I am going to do a tutorial really soon on how this comes together.  I am also going to share with you another variation of this book, which is really cool!  I will have that up soon.

I used a belly band to close this book. In this book I used cardstock to create the "envelopes" because I couldn't find red brochure envelopes.  I will get that written up for you all as well.

I made a ribbon rose for the belly band, and put Stickles on it.



This book has 12 pages and 6 pockets.  The pockets hold a tag, that is double sided.
I realize this is not a great picture, but it shows the tags I made.  I was trying to figure out a cool pull for the tags, and I ended up using my corner punch to do it.  Here's how:
I cut a 2x2" square of cardstock, and then punched two opposite corners.  I trimmed off the unpunched corners, folded it in half, rounded the corners, and taa daa...a cool pull for my tags that match the corners I punched on the red cardstock.  I added a punched heart to it to "complete it.

Thanks for looking!
