Anna Griffin has hit the bar with this one! It goes together perfectly and is so easy to make. The hinge die is amazing and so simple to assemble. There are so many possibilities with these album dies. Hope you enjoy this tutorial!
Thank you Carla, that’s the easiest way to make a mini album using cards - why didn’t I think of that! Your choice of cards and embellishments was lovely. When I’m using tear tape, I use a small acrylic block to hold the tape down and then tear, it gives a dead straight edge, but then you probably know that! Thanks again for posting
Carla I made my album today and I want to thank you for all the directions especially about folding and scor tape the edges. This is the first time I actually even made the album before I only used bought albums. Thank you it is going to so pretty when I finish. I can't thank you enough if it weren't for you I just couldn't do it. I love it. Thanks again now on to decorating.
Yes I know it has been several years, but just now wanting to make an album. I am reaching out to all those who made comments on this video. I am hunting for the embossing folder. I am willing to purchase the whole set or just the folder if you are willing to sell. Thank you.
Super cute and you could even mix/match in with some of the Crafters Companion album dies to create unique page additions and change it up a bit. Really cute! Thx for demo. ~Stacy
I’ve had this die set for a while...hoped to see a Finishing School Class using the die set.😉 I really appreciate your tutorial and the time you took to demonstrate the process! I’m sure your granddaughter loves her album, it’s really adorable! I’m excited to make one for my granddaughter! Thank you so much!🥰
I know it has been 2 years since this video but I am desperate to locate the embossing folder. I have lost mine but then again, I am just now getting the courage to make this album. If you are willing to sell any of it. Please let me know. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing, I need to see it made then I can do it. I just received my album making dies and I am so excited to make one. YOur granddaughter's is so adorable she is going to love it. I love it!!! thanks again
I cut my front and back cover pieces 12" x 7" and scored at 5" from one end of the 12" side and 2 inches from the other end of the 12" side. Then, I overlapped the two inch ends together and glued them to the spine. Hope that makes sense. That covers the album spine and it ends up with three layers of card stock. It also makes the front and back covers one piece so that it's pretty stable.
I love those little albums they are so adorable I would like to make one like that for me I have so much scrapbook paper embellishments and everything but it is adorable it is very pretty that little one you made for your granddaughter is beautiful she's going to love it you know what you could do too is leave one of those pages over before you fold it over and put another one on it like a half of another one so folds in so it like pulls out to another page that would even be a good idea too
Your kitty album is just precious. I might be biased since I'm an avid cat lover!! Anna said you can adjust the size by gluing more spines together. I have the die set but haven't had a chance to use it yet. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful video.
@@carlagetscrafty5880 I made my first album and I'm starting on a second one already. This die set is so fun to put together. I'm so glad I watched your video first, it helped.
"Hidden Hinge Plus" is the one Kathy Orta successfully patened. She claimed she invented the hidden hinge..but was met with lots of backlash and failed to patend it. So she came up with the 'Plus' which has an extra flap (so your pages lays very flat). So you are Ok to sell these from Anna Griffin and from Crafters Companion, I believe. 😀
What die cut did you use to make your pockets in the album? I love the white boa on the side, and the kitties are so cute. I have several friends who love cats i will see if I can fine that topper box.
This is the second tutorial of yours on Anna Griffin that I have watched and you do wonderful at explaining the steps, especially for this set because it is intricate and you have simplified each step. I almost thought about returning this set before I saw your tutorial. I subscribed to your channel and I am looking forward to your future tutorials.My next question is what brand of tape did you select to use on the quarter inch spine? I have 4 granddaughters so this is adorable to make for them.
I’m so glad you enjoyed my tutorial! Anna is amazing! The double-sided tape I was using in the tutorial was Scor-Tape. I purchased it on Amazon, however, many craft stores carry a double sided tape that would work just as well.
I am desperate to find this folder for this die set. I am hoping by writing on here someone might have this set and ready to sell or at least sell the embossing folder. I do not have one with my set. I don't know where it went but now wondering if I had it in the first place. Thank you for any help to find this.
@@imaquiltingfan Yes, I can get in trouble when she’s on HSN! 🙂 Did you find her on the HSN website? There’s a craft day January 19 on HSN. You might be able to find it on RU-vid...
