Footloose Mini Accordian Album

Back to crafting!  I've been wanting to try this mini accordion album for a few months.  I got the idea/pattern from a friend, Shari, who I met at a crop in Colfax.  I used CTMH Footloose papers and coordinating embellishments.
You can tell from this angle the album is about a half inch thick.
When you open the trifold, the album looks like this, with spots for pictures on each flap.  I didn't go over-the-top beach themed with this one, just a a nice bright summery theme.
Finally, this photo shows the accordion feature.  The center is made from envelopes adhered together to form lots of little pockets.  For this book, I added just a piece of cardstock with a ribbon pull to each pull-out.  I'm working on a step-by-step tutorial for this type of album, so check back!
