I was inspired by a fellow paper crafter, Maymay, to create a trifold 3‑page folio and then added my own creative twists. Using Early Espresso cardstock as the base and pairing it with vintage‑style DSP, I’ve started building a Heritage album that will become a meaningful Christmas gift for my sibling.
