Nature Journal- Specimen Page

This specimen is a set of butterfly wings that we found on the ground. They are glued to a yellow card.

Like the previous specimen page examples, this one is made from archival photograph holders. This one is designed for vertical 3 1/2" x 5" prints.

cover

To make it, I folded the photo page in half and secured the other side with tape.

I trimmed the top, but not flush. I made the top so that the upper pocket would have a flap that could fold into the pocket. The flap secures the specimen card and prevents it from falling out the top.

photo page This specimen page uses all four sleeves from a photo sheet. The top is trimmed in a way so that the excess height is made into flaps that is folded and inserted into the top sleeves.
