The Uniquely Creative Flip Album is THE perfect base for a travel album. There are so many ways to add photos and lots of them if you need to! Lydell is sharing some ideas for you to make your own, with the Scenic Route Collection. Below we'll flip through the album giving some tips and ideas along the way.

Instructions:
1. Add in envelopes to hold any ticket stubs or other memorabilia. The Slimline size is good for something a little longer.
2. Build little embellishment stacks with all your little fussy cut and die-cut pieces, this makes it super easy to put your pages together. If you don't know where to start on a project this is the perfect starting point. There's no pressure in making these, you can build as many as you like to get your creativity flowing. Then you just coordinate them to the papers you want to use on each page.
3. Utilise some of the collage-style papers as backgrounds. Build onto them with layers on top. This makes them look way more detailed than they are.
4. Use the edge distresser to rough up the edges of the paper. This creates so much more interest. Ink it first and straight stitch along the edge to really create more definition.
5. Add in Slimline Cards to create more space to record stories and add photos. Adhere some of your embellishment stacks to incorporate them into the page design.
6. Look for any journaling cards to record specifics in a simple and to-the-point way.
7. Note: you don't need to cover the entire album page with patterned paper. You can make your collection go a lot further by using the raw album page as the background and then adding a paper mat to add your photos to. This also unifies the look of the album as well, so win, win!
8. Mark where folds are on your patterned paper and score well to fit the folded pages in the album. You can get a seamless look without the need to cut your paper on either side of the folds.
9. Score folds in your paper and glue down along the fold to create extra pages within this flip album. This helps create more real estate to add photos and information to.
10. Look for details on the patterned paper to use as designs for your spreads. Here I cut out the circle, then cut that into two pieces (keeping the text around the edge intact) and used that to make this double-spread page. (See photos below to see the entire open page)
11. Here's another sample of a slimline card that is tucked into the back pocket. Lots of extra photo space here. The envelope below it had been cut down and glued just along the three edges on top of the pocket, creating an extra pocket to hold tags or photos. The envelope also opens to store even more bits and pieces.

12. The back cover... (I like to keep the covers fairly flat and simple to be able to effortlessly slide in and out of a bookcase)
