My baby albums made using France’s 8”x8” baby album tutorial. These are the 2nd and 3rd albums I have made. I really enjoyed making them even though they took me over a month to make. I am pleased with the outcome and can’t wait to give them to my daughter.

Folio mini, again, but this time bright and bold!! I was inspired by the poll. I've had this paper since 2009.

I used little square mirrors here and there for a disco ball effect.

I added an extra pocket page where I included a zipper. I was wondering around the notions in the sewing section of HL and thought about how I could incorporate it. Instantly messaged YBM and asked Frances what she thought! I can't believe it actually works. It sticks a tad, but even when I tug it, it holds in place. I will definitely do it again!

Hello, Peggy here from Texas. Just finished working on an album for my granddaughters 4th birthday next month. Her request was to be a princess, so I did Frances's "Flutter Folio" using Echo Parks "Once Upon A Time" paper. Lots of rearranging and not so perfect cuts but am finally done- I think...

I just finished another album based on Frances`s beautiful creations, the Mini Sota Album. My daughter asked me for a baby boy album she wants to give to a friend as a present. Used a paper collection I bought long time ago. Cavania London is the name of the paper stock.

Hello there from Laurel, Montana!! This is my first project that I have been able to finish! Lots of mistakes, lots of adjustments but it’s finished! I work as a Vocational Specialist and the office needed a “voting” box for everyone to vote for the employee of month. I offered. I went by the instructions that was based on the “Maria Memento Box”. I had to make the box bigger. It's approximately 11x11x6 inches but I did go by the instructions in the videos, except for the acetate. I needed to make a smaller hole so the office staff can insert the ballots inside the box. It was fun doing this! My next project is going to make the same “Maria Memento Box” for daughter who is expecting a baby in July. Thank you for your wonderful videos!! I hope you enjoy my photos. The last two photos are the pads of paper I used.

hi fellow crafters- I am new here and a long time crafter.

I used to used the xyron machine w/repositionable adhesive for my albums. I have since changed and used either art glitter glue or bearly art glue. both work well, but I would prefer using something that I have just a bit of time to rearrange if I choose without worrying about messing up the paper. I would welcome any suggestions as to what works best for you.

Thank you and happy crafting!
