I decided this one would be for a friend of mine in Ontario.
Here are some of the pages I had decorated.
The Matchbook closure of the card really works great because it gently covers the pages, expanding as needed to go over any bulk created by the inside decorated pages.
From the side when closed, it really does look like a matchbook. This one measure 4 1/2 by 5 inches, but really you could make the album any size.
Also, you don't have to have any inserts - that way it would just function as a card that closed.
Hope you enjoy. Here is the link on the web with the instructions:
