Hi! I'm Annie, new to YBM! I've been making mini albums for a few months now. Love the process & results, even with boo boos! here is one example of one of my albums. Mostly following tutorials & cutting guides, but learning to reach for creating my own pages little by little. This was my first album & I couldn't find the paper I envisioned in my head for the front cover & I somehow was able to create & print my own Canva design!

Hi everyone👋🏻
I'm Madison from Utah and am so excited to start crafting with these amazing tutorials! I am a graphic designer and an just getting back into bookmaking.
First up, a to do list gift for my mom as a Mother's Day gift and then a Winnie the Pooh themed photo album for my expecting friend! I'm trying to decide between all of the albums, there's so many options😄

Hi! My name is Magali Garcia, I’m 71 y/o from Johnston, Rhode Island. I retired at the beginning of this year and I found myself with a lot of free time. I’m very crafty so I decided to start this new adventure. I’m looking forward to learn from all of you and thank you for having me.

Hello to you all, My name is Dawn and I'm from London, England. I am hooked on watching crafting tutorials especially the gorgeous albums that I see you all making. I love the way you present the Albums Francis, your clear and relaxed tone of voice makes for an excellent teacher, and one I feel I can learn so much from. So now to pick my first project, I'm so happy to have your joined your community👍.

Hi Kerrie from Arizona! Long time craft but just found YBM because of an Facebook Ad, which I am always hesitant to click on! I am so glad I did -- Just completed the 12x12 Folio and well now I am obsessed!!! Cannot wait to start another book!!!

Hello - Terry Fest here as newbie. I have posted before introduction. I guess you could say I am excited. I am an experienced crafter who loves paper crafting. Live on a farm in Oregon with hubby of 60 years. Family all live near by with one daughter next door on 10 acres....fun, yes. My days are lovely and free and therefore allow me to be in my STUDIO creating. Wedding this summer on our property for granddaughter puts me into creative mode for designing albums for her. I love classes, love creating and putting my experience with someone like Frances. Thank you
