Catching Up! More Tutorials

Hello my crafty friends, I feel like I need to catch up with all that I have been sharing. My latest is this easy to make one page wonder. A really easy to make folio to hold ephemera, and this one has a lovely surprise cover! I had so much fun making these.


I mentioned in the video that I would have the measurements for the smaller size also, so here they are:
Paper size 8 1/2" x 11"
Score on the long side 1 1/2", 5 1/2", and 9 1/2" turn to the shorter side and score at 1 1/2" That's it. You can make them larger or smaller!

We also made these really easy collaged postcards / journaling cards that you can make with all you already have in your crafty space. 


Have fun crafting!

xoxo Liz

Mini Album / Journal - Using One 12x12 Paper +

I super love how this mini album / journal came out. It is so fun to put together, and you only need one sheet of 12x12 paper to do it. If you wanted to add the centre pockets to it (optional) you will need an extra scrap piece of paper. I show you in the video how to make one, make sure to check my instagram for updates on others that I am finishing up. 


Here are the measurements I used for this project:

12x12 paper - if you have single sided paper / non directional that works best
Score at 5 1/2", 6" and 6 1/2"
Turn once and score at 4" and 8"

For the pocket page:
12 x 5 1/2" paper
Score on the long side at 5 1/5" x 6" and 6 1/2' 
Turn once to the short side, score at 1 1/2"

Have fun crafting my friends. Remember to tag me if you make one, I love to see what you create!

Mini Album - One Page Wonder - Fall Theme


Another one page wonder mini album to add to my playlist. I had previously made one similar back in 2019, but decided to make this one a little bit different and in a fall theme. It is a quick project to put together and you can make many bases at once and save them to decorate later! Use up those paper pads and 12x12 sheets of paper.

I was happy to be able to use some of the new supplies I was able to get my hands on, like the #paigeevans Bungalow Lane collection. I love this collection so much. I paired it with some items I already had in my stash.

I hope you find some time to be creative today!

Mini Album / Journal Tutorial - One Page Crafts


I had so much fun making this easy one page wonder mini album. It has several pages that you can add embellishments, pockets and tuck spots to. What I love is that you don't need to sew the pages together or use staples or rings. You will love how quickly this comes together.

Start with a 12" x 12" paper of your choice. I used single sided in the video, but you can certainly use those double sided sheets. Follow the instructions in the video and see how quickly you can make one.

I embellished the pages with my new printable, mini happy mail ephemera kit. I send out so much happy mail, that I thought I would add some ephemera and embellishments I can print out as often as I need it. Here is another example of how I have used my mini flag sentiments in previous projects.


I used the crafty, just a note and happy mail ephemera here. Which I have added to the inside cover page of my mini #album / #scrapbook / #journal.


I also added the #creative flag to this gift bag topper, I am loving making these at the moment!


I added a few of my ephemera pieces to this mini envelope also! Love how it looks!

Another Mini Album - One Page Crafts TUTORIAL

 


I had so much fun making this little mini album / booklet. What I loved the most is that you can use up your paper scraps and it only takes one sheet of 6" paper to put the base together. The possibilities are endless with a project like this. I also really like that it can be mailed out in a regular envelope because it's so tiny! Snail mail, here we come!


This is truly a quick and fun project. I walk you through the process in the video of how I put mine together. I will leave some of the measurements below in case you wanted to see those as well. Check out the playlist on my YouTube channel - One Page Projects - they all take one page to quickly make the base and then you can embellish as you wish! See how I make it here and follow along with the tutorial!


I hope you enjoy crafting! Please remember to tag me on instagram or facebook, if you happen to make one and wanted to share how yours turned out!

Measurements:

1 x 6" paper
1 x 3" tracing paper (will trim when you add it to the mini)
1 x 3" x 2" paper scrap of your choice

Step 1. Trim your 6" paper to 2 pieces x 3" x 6"
Step 2. Score piece 2 - 5/8" and 5 5/8" Fold at score lines
Step 3. Score piece 2 - 2 1/2" and 5 1/4" Fold at score lines

Follow the steps in the video to put it together! Have Fun!

Happy Crafting!

Tuxedo Tri-fold Pocket - Ephemera Holder


I had so much fun making these tri-fold pockets. I like that you only need one sheet of paper to make the base then add your embellishments and ephemera as you go.

It holds so many pieces and it is great to send in snail mail and for swaps! You can use any paper you have and all you need to do is cut it to size. 

I have a quick tutorial video showing how I made them. I hope you enjoy making some!.For more ideas and inspiration, check out the playlists on my channel. 😊

Happy crafting,

New Digitals and Project Share

 


I am really enjoying crafting by using my left over paper scraps and fabrics. I also love to make something new with the pieces I have. I wanted to make something pretty that can be put together and shared with friends. Since I have always loved the 'designer' ways of showcasing fabric samples, I thought I would create my own digitals that would look great in putting something similar together.

I show you a super fun and easy way to make some yourself. Of course you can always use whatever you have on-hand to make this fun project. However, my new digitals are a perfect combination to go with this type of craft!


You can find the digitals I showed and used in the link above, as well as other digitals I have in my shop. I hope you enjoy using them in your projects. Please tag me on IG / Facebook if you do make something using my digitals, I would love to see what you make!

Happy Crafting,

Liz

Hope you find some inspiration!

One Page Projects

 


Using up my book pages to make new projects is one of my fave things to do. I love repurposing these book pages. 


I show you how to make 3 different styles in my video. You will find this and more ideas on my YouTube channel: Liz The Paper Project.


I enjoyed making these, using up my left over paper bits from other crafty projects.


Happy Crafting!

What is a Zine? Mini Book Love!

 

What is a zine? Well here is the description I found: zine (/ziːn/ ZEEN; short for magazine or fanzine) is a small-circulation self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images, usually reproduced via a copy machine.

I had previously shared this quick and easy project using 1 sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of paper. These are called zines, or mini journals. I enjoy combining left over paper scraps with some quick and easy to use supplies. You can make these with any paper. 

 

I love the size of these Zine's, they are approx. 4 1/4" 2 3/4" closed. Tiny little books. No glue or sewing  needed to make the base of these cute projects. In the video below I show you a few versions of them. 

I love the idea of being able to make copies of your completed work that you can share with friends and family. I think that is what made this project to exciting for me. That you can duplicate a little book and share that. I also took those copies and made them unique in their own way. 


I love being able to use 1 page to create a mini album. I recently started working on a new version, and will be sharing that with you soon. Keep an eye out for those posts!

I often get asked what paper and printer I use for my creations. Here is a link to my fave supplies, including paper and printer.

Mini Album - Use Up Your 12" Papers

 


I really enjoyed making this easy mini album / folio. The base is made using one sheet of 12" paper! You can use a single sided sheet or a double sided one. 


I found using a double sided sheet of paper makes it easier for decorating, and it looks just a lovely! I added some of my new mini digital ephemera, which I made to fit in this mini album. You will find my digital links on my shop tab. 


Measurements: Use a 12" x 12" Sheet of paper. Score one side at 3 1/2", 4", 8" and 8 1/2", turn your paper to the left, and score at 3" and 7 1/2" 

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial! Leave a comment if you want to see more of these types of crafts!

Happy Crafting!
