I really love the craft envelopes. Michael’s had theirs on sale. Honest they have some sizes you can literally create an regular sized journal with smaller ones as pages !! And the weight is just right. Bit pricy UNLESS you happen to go in for ribbon pass by the envelopes and 🥳🥳🥳 50 % off and you have a Michael’s coupon for 10.00 !! That’s a real live blessing. Because I typically hoard them. Oh my goodness Melina I am in love with that cover paper. Too cute for words. I’m already burning my brain. These are such fabulous lil too cute embellishment holders for my 11 “pen friends” mostly overseas..I just love sewing and adding a button or two. My ATG is really too heavy and cumbersome. I’ve waved the flag sent to a sweet woman in New Jersey who spends her own money to teach some senior woman how to create journals and Ephemera. I sent off the rest of my “we are memory keepers” scrapbook items after 22 years last week. I’m back to score tape. Is it not just so fun incorporating fabric of any kind in our creative process??
I can big believe it’s 2 AM and I’ve moved in to my studio to pull items to create these tomorrow. Geez today !! Likely not but have it on my desk when I feel better. These colors blues, pinks, celery, are too sweet for words
Cute as a button Melina. This is so brilliant. So versatile. Wonderful item thank keep on your desk full of your fussy cut pieces , dye cut thinlet flowers, words, sweet inspirational words, even small pieces of laces fabric ruffles , tags , tickets on the ready to make paperclips. Just wow 😮. Thank you so so much. Hugs see you soon. 💕💕
I just had to comment again on this project...I made one tor my granddaughter who turned 18 this week , I made a page for each year with photos of her as she grew up.She absolutely loved it ...brought tears to her eyes so again TFS
I’m already placing clear acetate on my pages to ready for stitching to place all of my labels. I think I’ll create inspirational words and some of my fav quotes fussy cut those ( all on different color paper) then put in fussy cut florals and some embossed papers and some diecuts to send for Christmas pen friends. All in possibly spring theme. That way they can use the items in their after January clean ups?! So excited !! Oh great idea I learned. Instead of muslin - check Walmart. They have the ol fashion slings for say, broken arm sprang wrist et!! The fabric is really robust! And the cost ?? 10.00 for 8 and they are huge!! They dye really well and fray nice. Hope it was ok to post that
Ok it’s really late, Melina. Or I should say early!! I’m having to sleep sitting up ( pneumonia) and I’m miserable SO I thought 🤔Melina !! She will change my mood!! And oh my lord immediately. The paper pad is absolutely amazing. Miss Betty once again did a wonderful job with her creative and inspirational talented pages. Then u do measurements, and I got it!! I’m not so anti 1/4 , 1/16 anymore!! I might even begin baking !! I never did enjoy baking because you have to be so precise! These are already amazing
This is my first time watching a kit reveal. This album is so creative and unique. I didn't think I would like that fabric at first. But it is perfect, Thanks for sharing your ideas with us.
Melina,you are such a big inspiration, you have no idea. I have been a long subbie to your mom's channel but really have discovered your awesomeness recently. Silly me. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity. 😘😘😘💗.
I had no doubts in you, but I want sure about getting it through my head for a while! This would be a great gift for a bride to be for her shower or girls night photos or for new parents or grandparents to show off their new little bundle of blessings! Good job!❤
I really like the accordian style journal! I wondered why you were using such a wide hinge between them, then saw the clever way you used it as a page tab! Loved it! 💗 TFS🤗
This is one of my favorite videos now every month. The kit has stunning papers and wonderful ephemera to work with. Your ideas are so unique. Your creativity inspires. ❤️
That's really nice 😊 I made something like that years ago when I was making cards. I put pictures on the pages and gave it to my daughter as agift Thanks for sharing.
