  1. Mount brown paper to white foundation paper to create the base page.

Figure A

  • Adhere the hidden photo template to the page.

  • Trim wood colored paper to the size of the moving panels and adhere to the panels.

  • Figure B

  • Add photos to the moving panels. The photos on the top panel should overlap the top of the track. Photos on the lower panel should tuck under the bottom of the track.

  • Cut several 1-3/4" strips of maple colored paper and adhere as photo corners.

  • Using a marker, make small black circles on the strips to look like nail heads.

  • Cut four 1-3/4" x 8-1/2" strips.

  • Figure C

  • Adhere strips to the page in a frame format.

  • Trim and mat photo, and then adhere to the center of the frame.

  • Make black circles for nail heads with a black marker.

  • Adhere hammer and saw die cuts to the page.

  • In one corner of the page, journal about the photo and place inside a page protector.

  • Cut a 1/4" slot along the bottom edge of the cover to expose the tab on the lower panel. This allows the picture to move in and out of the page protector.
