MINI, MINI FOLIO PART 1 - PREP and Construction

Imagine a Mini, Mini Folio which has lots of places for photos and added bits and pieces. You need to watch my new step by step video on making one. As the name suggests it's a cute little size at 6 1/4" x 5 1/4" size and has places for 6 x 4 photos and 3" x 4" photos too. This is part 1 and we construct the album and cut out all our elements from my chosen cardstock.

PAPER BAG ALBUM - USING LIFE'S A BOWL OF CHERRIES #graphic45

Here's another Paper bag album that I have made and this time I have used the Life's a Bowl of Cherries paper from Graphic 45 Please do give this video a look as I have made a few changes which I didn't do in the Curiouser and Curiouser Tutorial. Double points if you can find them lol.

As with the previous album I have used 6 of the Lunch/Grocery bags these are the large bags (6" x 12") so a really good size. I have also add a bit of glossy accents to the bottle caps which makes the front cover come alive, (in my humble opinion)

We are on the home stretch with this project.  I make up the last 2 pages in the Natures Notebook album.  This is the tutorial for the "Lifes a Bowl of Cherries" album that I did for my entry into the Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador call.  I use tags and create a tag holder for them to sit on as a stand alone page. Some of the tag holders I have used acetate to create a window which look fab! Please take a look at my video and give it a thumbs up and comment.  It really does help my channel grow.   

GRAPHIC 45 TUTORIAL - Scoring, Waterfall and Pages 4 & 8 #g45bacall23 #g...

Here is the next instalment of the Life's a Bowl of Cherries album that I created for the Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador call.  To give a very different perspective on the album, I have chosen very different papers to use as the demo album.  Let me introduce you to the Natures Notebook collection.  I have had this in in stash for a while now and this was the perfect album for them.  In this video I show you the different score lines and folds, making up the Waterfall feature on the front and back inside covers and make a start on Pages 4 & 8 which are the interlocking booklets pages.  I would so love it if you would click the link and comment on the video, leave me a like would be great too..  

LIFE'S A BOWL OF CHERRIES - Graphic 45 album for Design team call 23 G45...

I would like to show you my newest project that I have been working on over the last couple of days. As some of you will know I do love a good mini album and this one is one that I have so enjoyed creating. Its my entry into the Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador Call 2023 and I've been waiting all year for this to come around, I then had the huge task of choosing the paper that I was going to use, as its all just so beautiful! I did decide in the end with one of the newest collections which is "Life's a Bowl of Cherries" I just love the vintage 1950's feel.

I have a project share below on my You Tube Channel.

SUITCASE & INTERACTIVE ALBUM - made from Graphic 45 Alice in Wonderland ...

Hey my lovely peeps. PART 1 - SUITCASE.

Its the start of another project for you today. This is the instructions and tutorial for the Suitcase and interactive album that I have on my You Tube channel. I absolutely adore this project sooooo much. I love the factor that it has a mini sized suitcase that is perfect for keeping your precious albums neat and tidy and also helps to preserve them as well.

The album has 4 pages (8 sides) and plenty of space for lots of photos and believe it or not but the strapping and handle have been made with kraft card and a few mixed media supplies!

I have a walkthrough of a similar one called "A Suitcase Full of Couture" as I used the Couture papers from Graphic 45. This one I will be using The Alice in Wonderland papers also by Graphic 45.

Please subscribe to my channel, like and comment too as it really, really does help, I'm so close to reaching 6000 x
