Tutorial - Mini Album Journal

 

I really love how this cute little mini came out. I had so much fun putting it together and I hope you enjoy making one yourself.

I did have inspiration to make a mini because I wanted to use the cute valentine themed ephemera from @simplestories that I had and it goes so well with my valentine papers!! 

I also wanted to feature that cute rosette that I made from the latest @cocoandreno kit, these are so fun to put together. 

Happy Crafting!

New Unboxing Haul - The Washi Tape Shop

Today I am sharing a review and unboxing of washi tape and washi tape stickers from The Washi Tape Shop. I was so inspired by the designs and the lovely items that I got to play with. 

First I noticed the packaging was great, not overly packaged!! It is the first time that I was able to play with the flower petal Washi's and I LOVED how it comes out!! So versatile.

The washi tape stickers are great!! They come in a roll and you can use what you want, when you want it! They have a backing to them so they don't get stuck until you pull them off their paper backing! Love it!

DIY One Page Wonder Ephemera Holder

Today I am going to show you how I made this super fun and easy ephemera holder / mini album. For the base we will be using one 12'x12" scrapbook paper and as always, grab your scraps and any embellishments you want to add to it. I also show you an alternative way you can add much more pockets and tuck spots to this project - watch to the end of the video to see more ideas. I also have used some embellishments from some #simplestories collections to make this project stand out! As well, I also used some pages from my latest kit, Hugs XO - you will find my shop details by clicking My Shop tab. :-)

I really enjoyed making this with so many areas to add ephemera. So fun for the recipient to find all the goodies you've hidden inside.

It's a little deceiving, not knowing how much is actually in there!

I think my fave part was adding all the areas to flip out and discover!

Just when you think you are done, you flip it over and discover more!!

The more you look, the more you find!

So in the video, I also show you some additional ways to add more pockets, tuck spots and even an accordion area with pockets! Take a look. Let me know which one you are going to make! Video link below.

Happy Crafting!!

Daphne's Diary 2022 Planner / Journal

I was so happy to have Daphne's Diary contact me and ask if I wanted to take a look at their 2022 journal / planner. Um, yes please!! haha. I have not had a chance to get my hands on this beauty before, and I am so happy to have been able to receive it. 

If you are a subscriber to my YouTube channel you will know that I have been buying and using the Daphne's Diary magazines in my creative projects. Mostly for my creative journals. I love cutting it up (after reading it of course) and using it up in my projects. I have also made quite a few journals with them, different sizes and styles. I super love it.

I think I will be using the planner / journal for 2022, so far I have so much inspiration from seeing all the lovely images and designs on the pages. Take a look at the full flip through here. I have made some slight alterations already. :-)

Here is a hint for my subscribers / followers. I may have another little giveaway soon, so remember to watch, like, comment, keep an eye out. :-) PS if you watch the video to the end, I have a tip on how to find some freebies from Daphne's Diary that you may not be aware of.

EASY Gift Bags DIY - No Dies - 3 Styles

Today I have a video showing you how to make 3 different styles of gift bags. You only need one sheet of letter size paper for each. I think the last style is my fave right now, but they are all perfect for gift giving at any occasion. I think I will replace using envelopes for my greeting cards and use these instead. I hope you find some inspiration. 

I do think adding a nice bag topper to the larger bags is a great idea, it makes them look a little more special. The best part, is they can be reused over and over - so they are very environmentally friendly!! LOVE LOVE!!

Happy Crafting!
