Extra Large and Long Page 4

Hey! not only is this page 4 as long as the other folios: about 34 inches long when expanded, but it also took me a long time to get back to cutting the matting for this page. Again, I think I need to make a new cover and spine as this book will not close! The folio below shows all the pages with large photo mats. you can add more pockets if you did not want so many spots for large photos.

To find all my Extra long pages start here: Page 2

Long Page 4

Again, this page 4 is a folio page that when fully opened is about 34 inches long. I did not open the flaps for this post as I am still rethinking the arrangement and bulk that these large folio pages add to my brag book.

Once I know where I am placing the magnets , I will take photos from start to finish: how satisfying that will be for me!

The photo below is the page fully closed up. The closure is from the paper pad I am using and will have a backing and magnet when finished so that the folio is held closed in the book.

Long Page Starting To Be Visible

I really love paper and how it just folds, expands and become a 3d object. For this long page 4 , the narrow panel will open to the right.

narrow flap open to right — Extra Large and Long Page 4 starts to open

Folio Expands

The larger space could be used for a photo.

I think I will put some decorative cutting or a quote on this large space as a photo may get scratched on the front page .

This page and every other page in this folio will open to the left. What you are seeing below are two flaps (gold paper) that will open upwards and below are two large pages for photos.

I did not open the flaps for this post but will have finished photos on my last post for the finished product.

left page flips open left — Longer and longer

Large Photo Mats Continue

The page to the left, opens again to the left.

page on left open to the left again — Almost open all the way

The large gold page is a full sized flap that opens up and has space below the flap and on the page below for large photos.We are almost to the end of the opening of this folio.

What Do You think?

page to left opens again to the left. — Extra Large and Long Page 4 open all the way

Well, what do you think? It is an Extra Large and Long Page 4? The last page showing to the left has a pocket. Don’t forget that the back of these pages where seen before each page opened and will hold quote, journaling and photos also.

Yeah! on to the last two pages and then i will put all the magnets in, stick everything down and decide if to redo the cover and spine.

Folio Page 4 :Best Brag Book

The folio for page 4 side 2 is now all glued together, In this post I will walk you through exactly how this folio opens and mention any changes I made or options for layout.

Recap of Folio

Side 2 of page four is complete: a little final gluing down to be done, but I am OK with that! If you are just getting here and want to see the other pages and templates take a look here:

Use this Folio

The folios can be used in many ways. Side 2 of page 4 can be a stand-alone folio, and so can page 4 side 1.
A lovely mini photo album to give as gifts.
Add your own photos and give as a very elaborate greeting card or
attach as to a page in a brag book: like we are doing here.

This is what it looks like all closed up. You could put a photo here on the cover if you wanted… maybe put a photo mat on top then the photo.

Pages of this Folio

Cover for page 4 side 2. The folio is all folded up in the photo below and has a magnetic closure.

Next, open it up . The tag “the Witch Night Party ” is a magnetic closure.
The large piece front page can also hold a photo if needed folds
The cover opens to the left.

Opened Folio up once

there is a pocket on the left.I welded on the skull and candles to the pocket. If you would like to try this my post on how to weld items is here.
On the right is a flap with a cat tab attached. The cutout pieces are from the scrapbook paper and can be used as spaces to hold notes or small photos.

Opened up twice

The left piece opens and there is a half page with a cutout candelabra, this page could be matted and used for photos or any of the flaps in this insert can be eliminated.

The central panel is a cutout Halloween scene, small tags can be slipped into the cut sections and the oval-shaped moon can be used for a photo… It is not glued down yet (notice the paperclip?) Both candelabra and Halloween scene are cut files from the Silhouette Design store

Let’s open The Folio for the third time

The half page on the far left is matted and can be used for photos.
Next to this is a page with a flap that has a cat tab attached, this pulls down .
For the rest of the pages on the right, the view has not really changed much.

Fully opened Folio: all flaps open

Ok, we are getting to the end of all the flaps and folds…here it is all opened up.

NOTE: it is NOT upside down, it was not 100% glued down and at the very last minute, I changed where i wanted the flaps to be on this last folio page. The template digital files are flexible that way, Changed how the flaps are attached, the number of pages, pockets…each time can be a different look and feel using the same cut files.

My layout when I cut the cardstock was arranged differently, see the post here

Things to note

The middle page flips up and the gold “Halloween” cut out file is from Silhouette Design Store.
The pocket with skulls (GOLD) can be a flap that folds down instead.
The flap on the top has a narrow pocket to hold items.
On the right, there are slots for tags that can hold photos…I need to cut the large tags for this.
The bottom flap got cut off in the photo…it has a magnetic belly band to hold items.
