When I started this mini [using Documentary] I wanted to use page protectors for my pictures but couldn't find anything that fit (the album size is ~3.5 x 4.75)
so i made my own :)
[supplies: 8.5 x 11 page protectors, paper trimmer, hole punch, scissors, ruler, pen, 1" loose-leaf rings]- start with a regular 8.5x11 page protector
- measure your album cover
- mark the sheet protector (so you know where to sew ;))
- sew 2 vertical lines (3.5" wide each) to create the pockets
- cut out the pockets. for this particular album you'll end up with 2 double pockets
- punch holes and add them to your album

Love this album! Thank you for the fab tutorial!
Fantastic solution! I will be doing this to all my 12x12 page protectors.
what a creative idea! I just was wondering, do you know if you can purchase 8.5x11 page protectors that are scrapbooking safe (no acid, etc)? thx so much for sharing. :)

Brilliant! Thanks for the tip!
Fabulous post! I'd seen this post quite a while ago, used the idea the other night, then saw a link to this on Pinterest! I thought my friends and fellow scrappers would love it too, so I featured it today on my Scrapbook Wonderland Facebook page as 'Today's Scrapbook Wonder'.
Here's my share if you'd like to check it out!
