A Few Of My Faves

YouTube Celebration! Plus So Much More...

Hello my crafty friends! I have been away for a little bit, as many of you may already know, I've been recovering from surgery and I am slowly getting back to my usual activities. However, it's still a little while to go. I need to bring some happy back, so I thought I would start this month of June by making some videos with some giveaways! This is the first one (of what I hope is many more) I hope you check it out and enter.

I have so many reasons to celebrate. I can't believe this month I have 29K subscribers, what?? how?? I've been on YT for 6 years now, and trust me, I did not ever see this coming. However, I am super happy to be part of such an amazing community of crafters and so appreciative of all your support.

Check out my latest video, for the first giveaway I am planning. 

So I am starting out with this unboxing video with some of my latest goodies. I had to share this right away, I'm loving the items and I can't wait to make some of the goodies. If you want to enter my giveaway, remember to be a subscriber to my channel, like the video and leave a comment. I can't wait to pick the winner(s)

What do you suggest I make with some of these goodies? Where are you watching me from?

Slider Card EASY DIY - With Options

Hi Friends,

On my YouTube channel I show you how to make this easy slider card, step by step. I also have links to my fave supplies list, where you can find the mini envelope dies I used to make it. However, I know that many of you might not have the dies or want to purchase them, so I have shown you an option here on how you can make your own mini envelopes to make this same design.

Step 1 - Make an envelope. You could use your envelope punch board, or make your own. These are so easy to make. I also have a quick tutorial on my channel on how you can make an easy envelope. See my tutorials playlist.

Step 2 - Mark and cut out your slit on the envelope. I like to use my hole punch to start me off, on each side of the envelope slit.

Step 3 - Cut your slit. Easy peasy. Now you have your own slide envelope that you can add to your projects.

I hope you enjoyed the share. Please leave a comment if you would like to see more projects like this on my channel or if you have suggestions on what else we could use to make this project easier.

The dimensions for the card I made in the video are 2 pieces of cards stock. Card base is 5 7/8" x 4 3/4" and the card top is, 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". The rest you measure depending on your envelope size.

Happy Crafting!

Snail Mail Ideas - Stacked Friendship Envelopes

Hello my crafty friends! 

I had so much fun creating this stack of frienship envelopes, so perfect to make and share! I liked the idea of having something that could sit on your desk or could be displayed. A place that holds wonderful pieces of ephemera.

This is my design project for nitwit collections, I really enjoyed putting this together. I can't wait to make so many more! Remember to tag me #lizthepaperproject if you make one, I would love to see what you make!

Snail Mail Ideas - Use up your 12" papers!!

Hello my crafty friends!

I am so happy to have another quick tutorial to add to my channel's playlist. This one is a quick and easy one to make, using up those 12" scrapbook papers that we seem to never be able to finish. Maybe I should stop buying them..nah :-) Let's use them up!!

Snail Mail Ideas!

One page, 4 pockets, and you can then add whatever else you want to the ephemera holder. It is perfect to put in an envelope and send to penpals or in swaps. They can all be so different, depending on how much you decorate and add to them. I've made several and they are all unique. 

Let me know if you are inspired to make one and tag me on Instagram / Facebook or leave a comment below. I would love to see what you have created!!

Hugs,

Easy Tutorial #58 New Waterfall Idea

Hi Friends!

I am so happy about the project I will be sharing on my YouTube channel today. I have made a new album / ephemera holder. I have used some of my printables, plus lo's of left over paper bits and my fave part is that I get to rescue / repurpose somethings that would have ended up in the recycle bin or trash. I think it looks awesome and it is so super easy to make. I show you step by step in the video. :-) 

Lately I have been inspired to make quick, fun and easy crafts that you don't need to be an experienced crafter to make, things you can share with friends and family. Remember to check my YouTube channel for the tutorial, and while you are there, check out my many other tutorials and craft with me projects. 

Remember to tag your project by using #lizthepaperproject so that I can see what you have made, since I have lots of tutorials on my channel, I am sure you will be inspired to create something! 

Happy Crafting!

Quick project share

Hello Hello!

I have a quick project share today. This is for a custom order, I had forgotten to share the video before. It is one of my stationery loaded pockets, with a mini flip book. I super love these projects. I love making loaded pockets with removable ephemera pieces. The tiny flip book is also one of my faves. So much versatility in these style of projects.

I hope you get inspired! 

Happy crafting!

Valentine's Day Shaker Card!

Hello my crafty friends!

I have been making little projects here and there, while I organize my studio. I have also seen Valentine's Day projects popping up everywhere, I thought I would share my latest twist and pop-up card. I used some left over bits that I had and also some gorgeous retro Valentine's digitals from Digital Collage Club. I love how it came out!!

I have shared a tutorial before on how to make these cards on my YouTube channel. I am having so much fun making different themes! I recently shared this one on Instagram. Are you a big Valentine's Day crafter? or not so much?

Craft with Me!

Hi Friends!

I am going to have a new craft with me video on my channel today. In this video I share a couple of design project I made for On A Whimsical Adventure. I share an album / folio filled with pockets, tuck spots and lots of hidden sections. 

The second project I will share is a twist and pop card I have seen all over Pinterest and YouTube. They are so fun and easy to make. It also gives your cards a new level of handmade goodness. IMO. I will be sharing the tutorial on my YouTube channel, but thought I would show you some pictures of what I made.

If you make a twist and pop card following my tutorial, leave a comment below - share some pictures with me, I would love to see what you make!!

Hugs,

Happy New Year!!

How I get organized!

I hope you are having a wonderful start to the new year! With a new year, usually comes resolutions. One quick thing that I always enjoy doing, and it makes it easy to keep my resolutions, is start small. To organize my craft supplies, I like to use quick and easy things that I already have around (also I could always make something) to organize my supplies. This makes it easier to find things when I need them. 

In this video I will show you how I organize some of my stamps, die cuts, ephemera and embossed folder papers using things that you may already have at home. Some quick and easy ways to accomplish this and check off one my resolutions, keeping organized.

I hope you find these ideas helpful. Let me know what you liked the most and also, any tips or ideas you might have. Also, let me know what other items you have been meaning to organize, and would like some tips and tricks on getting that done.

Happy organizing!

Easy Album Tutorial

Hello my crafty friends!

Here is my latest tutorial. This super easy and fun album is using 12" x 12" sheets of paper. Use up those paper pads!! I think it's one of my faves so far. If you haven't seen my tutorials, check out the playlist on my channel, I have so many tutorials that I have shared. Ok so this one I will upload soon, is so versatile and it helps use up those paper pads and craps! I am looking forward to new project ideas using up my paper pads in the new year. Wait until you see what it looks like inside!

I like that you can put it together with glue (no sewing) and there are so many ways you can change it up. It has many pockets, tuck spots and so much space for pictures or ephemera. Another great one for snail mail!

Let me know what other tutorials you would like to see me share on my channel, I am always looking for suggestions. Also keep an eye out for my next giveaway winner announcements and also, what I will have for my next giveaway.

Remember to follow by email (there is an option on the right side of this page ) to know what's coming up next. I hope you are all having a wonderful day!

Hugs,
