Scrapbook in a Box

Since this box was 3 5/8 inches wide on the inside, I cut two strips of cardstock that were 3 ½ inches wide leaving an eighth of an inch so that the pages have room to pop up out of the box.

Next, score each strip every 3 ½ inches creating squares.

Fold each strip, accordion style and affix them end to end with photo tape to create one long strip of folded cardstock. You can add additional strips as desired to add more pages to your book.

Optional Step: At this point you may wish to use a corner rounder to round the corners of each pair of folded pages. You will slip each folded corner into the punch and press firmly. If you punch will not go through both sheets of cardstock, simply press the punch firmly to score the paper and use your scissors to trim along the mark left by the punch. The rounded corners define each page and add a nice touch to the book.
