Hi. Making my first book. The Christmas Veleeta book. I am a slow crafter. I made my cover but in a spot my paper split. What causes that? Sorry if it seems silly question

Hello, I’m new to the community. Are there any projects that would work great with 6x6 paper pads? I made the Christmas folio, but had to do a lot of paper piecing. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Thanks,
Linda

Hello everyone! I’m truly excited to post my first project on the YBM app. I followed the Ester folio tutorial and learned so much through it. Thank you so much, Francis, for your inspiring work and kind guidance. I’m so happy to be part of this creative community! 🌸

I am new. I have been scrapbooking and card making and doing journaling and mixed media for about 30 years. I keep seeing your books on YOUTUBE and decided it was time to dive in. I reside in the Seattle area with my hubby and two gorgeous BOXERS. I have 3 children and 4 grandbabies. I LOVE crafting and am pretty good with a CRICUT too :)

Hi Everyone. Super excited to be a part of this community! Frances makes some amazing books and super easy to follow instructions. I have made a few from a few years ago. I have been crafting for many years and recently closed my business teaching crafts to kids so I can focus on slowing down and making some fun stuff for and with my grandchildren.

This is my latest project for my Son, he's well into fishing, but never recording his catches, so now he can
