This is a full walkthrough and page tutorial of my 8 1/2" album featuring Simple Stories Simple Vintage Essentials Color Palette. The album measures 8 1/2"X8 1/2" with a 2" spine. Be sure to watch the entire walkthrough at the beginning of this video for tips. Please note I made a couple of changes in the end when decorating as you will see in the walkthrough. I did the signature 5 side b a bit different than I show in the tutorial however you can do it either way.
Here is a video that shows how to attach the pocket pages to the album spine piece. It begins at approx. 32:50 in this tutorial
