So - in metric, the photos are 7cm x 7cm (4 off) and 14cm x 7cm (4 off). I inserted my images into MS Word then I used the 'crop' feature (Picture Format Toolbar) with the above measurements, then I placed the crop box to suit the images. After placing them all on 2 pages, I converted the Word doc to a PDF (for easier printing with no crazy formatting) then I printed them on A4 page labels (ie the whole A4 page is one big label), but T really think normal 80gsm paper would be suffice (as Julie says in the vid). I still used PVA glue to stick them down (especially the corners), but I found if you make the images slightly less like 6.98cm and 13.98cm the corners don't pull up after each turn. It pays to let the glue dry on each photo first, and applying pressure (esp on the corners), before cutting too.
Giving this to my boyfriend for our six month anniversary today...hope he'll like it! Also, I used photos on regular photo print and glue obviously and while it didn't flip as easily, it still worked. It wasn't exactly a disaster as she described it, but it could've gone better. Great video though!
Tamar Smith use four 2x2 photos & four 4x2 photos. you can just upload your photos on a google doc & click on the photo and click “image options” then click “size and rotation” and in the size type the dimensions. that way you can print them through your printer on paper
Lady, thank you very much. I wanted to such a thingy as a gift for my girlfriend and every video i watched was so confusing and everything. Im so glad i found your video.
Hahaha "DO NOT CUT THE TAPE". Seriously though thank you for the great explanation on how to do this right. I'm making one for my 6 year old daughter with pictures of her with her mom and I. I'm sure she's gonna love it!
Thanks so much for the extremely well done lesson! Such clear step by step instructions, and very helpful tips for where it is easy to go wrong. Thank you.
OMG thank you so much. I was following the other video, but yours is so much better. I love how you walk us through each part and show us the different cuts we have to make. Very clear and easy-to-follow!
thats so funny that you made this because of five minute crafts because I got here due to them aswell. I made an origami version of these when I was like 9 and I am excited that I am inspired to make a flipping cube for my boyfriend for either christmas or our one year coming up in February. :)
Yeah I’m making this gift for my friends and I watched the 5 minute craft video and I actually failed and ended up crying. Then my sister send me your video and it literally hyped so much thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this video. I do a lot of pop-up cards and this is something different. I can't wait to make some of these. Your video was great. Not too much information but what you need and understandable.
Thank you so much, Julie! I was looking for one more project for my middle school students for their PhotoShop Unit! Yay! I totally think they can handle it. What a great way to display multiple images. Cheers!
How freaking easy! I went and got the cube and was so excited that I wanted to get the hinges done. It took me about 10 mins..and that’s only cause I didn’t follow directions in the beginning 😂😂 now I’m going to bed. Will put the pictures on tomorrow. Great tutorial!!
Glad to see this tutorial. I have a card that folds like this but flat. I hadn’t thought of photo( I have brain dead symptom that can blank out creative activities at times) but the photo would be cute with it too, thanks.
Soooo cool Julie!!! Tfs and taking the time to simplify the process! HUGE THANKS FOR THAT 🙌😄I like the pictures and the patterns. Both are really cool.
OMG Julie...WOW How Super Funtabulous is your Flipping Photo Cube!! Love your Photo One You and Steve are so cute!! Thanks for the Outstanding Tutorial and sharing your Tremendously Terrific Tips, Tricks & Techniques...this cube is totally cool! It definitely is intriguing and love all of your ever so Clever & Creative ideas!! YOU so ROCK!! Joan Smith
Well done! Thank you. This is the first one I fully understand. Have you ever sealed each individual edge/surface with something like ModPodge to keep the edges from coming up with use?
Super cool!!! Can’t wait to make a project with this awesome idea. Thanks. Your channel always has inspiring cool ideas to spark the creativity within.
I am currently tearing my hair out hahah...love this, your tutorial is great Julie (apart from missing out one step...but it’s obvious once we get in to the making it.x) but for me it’s getting the photographs the right size lol...I’m back and forth from word and pictures trying to size them...but I WILL GET THERE lol...thank you so much.x
hi I loved this gave it to my teacher ,it just took really long because I didn't use the sticker machine that she, used but overall it was nice. she gave really good instructions also .
