Graphic 45 
Life's a Journey
Double Fold Card (Album)
Club G45 Vol 02
'Life's a Journey not
a Destination'


Hello dear G45ers! 
Happy to share with you my
 #ClubG45 project this month
 featuring the beautiful Life's a Journey 
Collection. I love the colours and patterns
 in this collection. It is just stunning!

For my assignment this month I was 
asked to choose any of the projects 
from the Club G45 Kits and level it 
up, so I decided to recreate the 
Double Fold Card by the talented 
Robin Shakoor. I made the card a 
little bigger and added an extra 
double card on the other side too.
I also added two photo frames on the
inside of the card to use as an album.

Charee Filimoehala has an easy step
 by step video tutorial on this project,
 you can follow the link here.

Herewith the Supplies and Instructions you 
may use to recreate such a project:


Other Supplies used:
2 Frame Cutting Dies
Ribbon
Acetate Sheet
Black Cardstock
White Cardstock
Film Strip Ribbon
Adhesive Foam Squares
Double Sided Tape

Cut a card from black cardstock measuring 30 cm x 17.5 cm.
Score the card in half at 13.5 and the flap at 3.5 cm. Next cut an extra
 piece for the left side measuring 13.5 cm x 12.5 cm. Score the flap at 3.5 cm.
Mat the cards and flaps with the pattern sheets to fit front and 
back leaving a small border.

Cut four small cards (for the double fold) from white cardstock 
measuring 9.5 cm x 11 cm for the right and 9.5 cm x 10.5 cm
for the left. Score all four cards at 1.5 cm for the flaps. 
Mat the cards with the pattern sheets to fit front and back
 leaving a small border.


Mat the tags with the pattern sheets front and back 
 using the G45 tag cutting dies. Score the small tags (2 of them)
at 3 cm. These will be used as a closure for the card.
Cut a square piece from a pattern sheet for the large tag (not shown in 
picture) measuring 11.5 cm x 9.5 cm.  This will be used as pocket 
to slide in the large tag behind the journaling card.


Cut a few photo frames from the black chipboard. Add some acetate
 sheet behind the two small frames. Add eyelets to the 
chipboard pieces and die-cut assortment tags.
Tip: Remember to cut two extra photo frames and adhere to the other. 
Adhere tape to one side, the top and bottom. Thus being
able to slide in a photo on the other side with ease.


Add two of the metal door knobs to the eyelets of the tags. 
Tip: Add the ribbon first before adding the door knobs.


Add the die-cut assortment pieces to the small cards and tags.


Add some chipboard elements on the inside of the cards.


Add some phrase elements to the tags. Mat these onto
black cardstock.


Add some filmstrip ribbon to some of the pages.


Add a frame to the journaling card and some swirly shapes
from the die-cut set.


Adorn the tag with an ephemera/journaling card and some die-cut 
assortment pieces from the collection.


Adorn the photo frames with some chipboard pieces and 
die-cut assortment elements from the collection. 

Some more photos...











This was such a fun project to recreate! I hope it inspires you to
create your own double fold card album.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Papercrafting!
