Going through the process of making a handmade greeting card is always one of the best parts of the creative experience.

However, when the creative process ends and you’re left with the dilemma of storing your cards, how do you do it?
Some people might place their cards in some envelopes or storage pockets, or maybe stash them in a drawer. If you’re looking for a way to better organize them and keep your cards safe, look no further than the new 9” x 12” Three-Ring Album and A2 Card Dual-Sided Pocket Pages!
What is a Cardmaking Album?
A cardmaking album is a multi-purpose way for you to store projects. That way, you can feature the beautiful designs and also keep your cards safe from dust, water, or any other type of damage when they’re exposed to the elements. It’s also meant to keep your workspace tidy and help you tuck all of your projects away on a shelf or near your desk, as opposed to having cards strewn about, risking loss or damage.
What to Expect in Altenew’s Three-Ring Album & Pocket Pages
Elegant, Faux Leather Designs
Introducing Ivory and Rouge: two beautiful shades you can choose from when selecting your Three-Ring Album from Altenew. You can build your collection with just one color, while others might like to color-code by choosing both shades! Plus, you can enjoy the high-quality, luxurious faux leather finish and cushioned texture of each album.
Customize Your Album Spines
If you look at the top portion of your album’s spine, you’ll notice a slot dedicated for labels. Once you have multiple albums, you can fill in these labels according to your preference. That makes it easier to keep track of your handmade card collection, whether you prefer to organize by theme, category, occasion, or anything else.
Pocket Pages Made of Durable Material
Every purchase of the Altenew Pocket Pages will get you multiple clear, dual-sided pocket pages that perfectly fit A2 cards. You’ll notice that there are 4 slots per page side, and 8 slots total per pocket page. Rest assured that there are plenty of opportunities to place handmade cards on each page, carefully filling out your album as you progress through your collection.
Top-Opening Pockets & Great Storage
Wondering how you can securely place your handmade projects inside the pocket pages? The top-opening feature allows you to easily slide your card in the slot, and keeps it secure as you accumulate more projects. Just be sure to keep your albums stored upright so the cards don’t fall off!
Here’s Why Every Cardmaker Needs a Three-Ring Album
Still on the fence about getting your own cardmaking album? Although its use is pretty straightforward, we’ve prepared a rundown of how you can use it. Of course, the sky’s also the limit when it comes to how you want to organize and personalize your albums too!
Store Handmade Cards You Receive
If you love the crafting community as much as we do and have a great relationship with your fellow crafters as well, we know you have your fair share of cards received. Instead of tucking them away in a drawer and having to individually take them out every time you want to look at them again, it’s so much better to place them in an album! That way, you’re free to flip through all of the cards you’ve received from friends, family, and loved ones with convenience.
Store Handmade Cards You Want to Give Out
We know lots of crafters love to make cards in bulk around Thanksgiving or the holiday season, or maybe you enjoy making multiple versions of cards for occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. If you’re making cards with no particular plan to give them out just yet, you can always store them in your trusty Three-Ring Album! That way, in case an event rolls around the corner and you’re short on time, simply flip through your album and find a card worthy of the occasion.
Store Your Favorite Creations
You might like the idea of using the albums to store cards you want to give out and receive, but what about the projects that you simply want to keep for yourself? Maybe you’re particularly proud of a handmade card and don’t want to give it away just yet, or you made duplicates of a project that you want to keep as a reference for future cards. Store them in your album nice and tidy for reference!
Organize Your Cards with Altenew’s Three-Ring Album & Pocket Pages!
We know how important it is for crafters to not only make beautiful projects, but also have someplace to store them safely. If you want to have a cardmaking album to store cards you want to give away, cards you received from others, or simply keep the favorite ones you made handy, then this is right up your alley!
