One Little Book from One Piece of Paper
I learned how to fold paper to make book pages from Carol Duvall, so I adapted this technique to make this little book. It's a ton of fun and a great stamp camp project. I did this for a class on Scrapbook Embellishments and precut and scored the paper ahead of time to make it easier for my students.
To save the PDF file to your hard drive, right click on the link and chose "Save Target As". Then you will be able to open it in Adobe Acrobat reader. This file is compatible with version 4.0 and above. The file includes the picture, so you don't need to copy both.

Jan,
Can't tell you how long it took me to figure out how to open these things on my own - how thoughtful of you to give the newbees a heads up! Can hardly wait to try to make this cute little book! Thanks!

I finally got around to uploading pictures of the little book I made with this pattern. Thanks so much for sharing it -- I really love my little scrapbook with pictures from last year's Halloween. This book was perfect for a beginner scrapper like me -- didn't have to think too much about layouts or embellishments. When your page size is 2.75x2.75", a little goes a long way!
Our annual Halloween party is tomorrow and I just know everyone will love to see our last year's party scrapped in this little format!
Here is the
front (kind of scarry and not a lot stamped -- the flap of the book tucks behind the black band onto which I've attached "Mr. Skeletor's" picture),
back ,
page 1-2 ,
3-4 ,
5-6 ,
7-8 ,
9-10 and
11-12 .
Again, thank you so much for sharing this pattern! My Christmas book for this year has already been started!
