ArtS Report post Posted June 6, 2009 (edited) My son came to me earlier in the week and asked me to make a photo album for him to give as a wedding gift. He was laid off a couple of weeks ago so he really didn't have any money for a nice gift. So I rushed this one out the last couple of nights after work. I'm happy with it as I had to rush it out. It's basically a cover for a three ring binder. I was lucky that Wal-mart had their photo pages on sale for $.75 a pack. Good timing for a change. The back is plain with just my logo stamped at the bottom. I made him pay me a dollar for it. I told him that way the gift was from him not me. LOL I used chap leather on the inside.
