Simple Stories Vintage Lakeside Folio

      I wanted to support my local Scrapbook Store that I frequent in Dalmeny Saskatchewan called Scrappin with T so I thought I would try something new... I am doing a Tri Monthly Kit Club that is open to anyone in Canada as long as you are willing to pay the shipping for a Canada Post Flat Rate Box.       The kit includes the supplies to make the project, a PDF Cutting Guide and Video access to a NEW project made just for that Months kit. Prices vary depending on the Collection we choose for that month but so far it seems to be going well! I have made a proto type for the actual project and am currently working on the actual Kit Club Project that I hope to have finished next weekend.       Here is a look at the Proto Type Project for the 1st Tri Monthly Kit Club - July Project...      I call this style of Memory Book my 2 Day Folio because when I started making them, I could get one pretty much finished in a weekend...

You’re The Zest || 2 Day Folio PLUS || Project Share

      My favorite color is orange but I absolutely love the Simple Stories Vintage Lemon Twist Collection! I decided to use it on the NEW 2 Day Folio PLUS - Folio #2. I quite enjoy making this style of Memory Book and love to share with others!      I created an Etsy Shop and have a few tutorials as well as finished albums & folios for sale. I have also made my own Art Glitter Glue Bottle Bling Charm Dangles that you can find in my Etsy Shop as well.      This Folio will hold quite a few photos for its size and depending on the size of the photos, cropped 8" x 10" and below. Finish the Folio measures 8" x 10" x 1 1/4".      There is a Tutorial for the Construction of this project in my Etsy Shop ! There is also a Full Project Share Video on my YouTube Channel but I have added it here as well 😊 Products Used:     - Simple Stories Vintage Lemon Twist Collection Kit     - Simple Stories Vintage Lemon T...

Country Harvest Folio

     Every time I make a new 2 Day Folio or decorate an already existing 2 Day Folio, it becomes my new favorite! 😂  Here is the latest of the 2 I have done of 2 Day Folio # 7. This one I call Country Harvest Folio and it is done with an updated Cutting Guide. I had to expand the spine and change how the cover flap fold in. I didn't want to confuse anyone so I did Version 2 of the Cutting guide.

Back In My Craftroom!!

      Well... it's definitely been a while since I've done anything in my Craft Room but I have finally gotten my mojo back! I have made a quick 2 Day Folio that will be a free tutorial for those in my Bee A HappiCrafter Facebook Group! And I'm most excited about this project...      I had started a project back in June or July of 2021 then decided to list my house for sale thinking it would take forever to sell and DID'T! It sold within a month so I moved in February of 2022. Everything packed up and in a new location, got things organized and all ready to go and had a heck of a time getting in there and doing something!       I decided to do a little re-arranging which usually helps and what do ya know... it worked! I found my pages to the "big" project and decided to downsize the individual project into 3 projects!       I am going to do 3 Albums with 2 signatures. It will still be a "big" project, actually likely ...

You’re My Honey Bee Box Album

I know I say this pretty much every time but I think this is my favorite project so far!!      I had always wanted to do an Album that looks like it’s in a box when really, it is the box! I also always wanted to do a landscape orientation Album. When I saw this paper collection I started the landscape album and as I progressed, I decided to try the album box as well!       When I was doing the lid, I mad it a bit to big but didn’t want to remake it so I was thinking how I could use up that little extra space… as you can see, I decided on a shaker! This is the top of the box! Nothing fancy but I REALLY like it!!       I wasn’t sure what to do at first because it was slightly longer than 12x12 but while scrolling on either Pinterest or Instagram, I seen a card designed like this so I thought that would be perfect! I had and extra element that didn’t go in the Album so it was set aside for the lid!  Overall I am extremely pleased ...

Tropical State of Mind Plus Size Gatefold Folio

      I hadn’t been crafting in my craft room for quite some time when I was messaged by a member of my private Facebook group. They were having a little trouble with the Tropical State of Mind Gatefold Album  cause I changed a few things in the written instructions and never got to doing a new video… or video series which I did! I really procrastinated I think cause I didn’t want to do another one just like it, so I asked if it would still make scenes if I made it bigger but kept all the pieces in the same order and she was ok with that! So became the Tropical State of Mine Plus Size Folio! 😃       I really want Stampin’ Up! to design some scrapbook papers like other companies so it wasn’t so repetitive while making projects like this. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE Stampin’ Up!, they just need better designer papers!!      I used the Simple Stories Vintage Garden District for this project, 2 packages of the 12” x 12” and some from the 6” ...
