This is one of my pocket album creations. For this first time since I started making these books, I deviated from the normal run of brown paper and used cream instead, went the extra mile and printed in a shade of emerald rather than black for the inside text, and used two separate colors for the covers that, when lined with the interiors, better match the Irish flag.

The Irish Farthing series is short and works either for the regular bookshelf album or just this pocket size example. For me, personally, this opens up the door for more color options regarding paper and text for all the other books too.

    Well done- it looks to have that Library of Coins influence in the design and the Irish Flag color combo works well.

    What a talent. Did you have any problem finding paper with no Sulphur?

    At first I did, same with finding non-PVC plastic to cut into slides.
