Help!  I have a book I prepped but set it aside for later completion.  Well, it is later.  I cannot recall the name of the class! 

Here is a description of the book:

9 1/2 by 10, 3 pieces (front/back and spine was covered separate and I am not sure what this style of spine is called), FIC pouch base, booklet base with another booklet flap, frame and frame base, 4 1/2 by 6 1/2 folded booklet, small tag pocket about 2 by 2 1/4, and another notable feature includes 3 bands that I believe are attached to the back inside cover that each measure 3/4 by 10 inches long.

I remember loving the 3 bands in the back of the book, so hopefully that feature will trigger someone's memory.

What’s your go-to pair?

Is it even papercrafting if you don’t have a small army of scissors?😋

✨Note about the Notepad Holder Class!✔️

Everyone’s style is going to be different but I thought I’d share this. If you don’t mind having that base cardstock pocket construction being in 1/8” in and matted onto your cover base—then this method is an easy way to get everything adhered on, all in one shot. Everything’s united as one piece so I was super excited to share this! ( for those of you who already figured this out…lol—High Five! 🙌🏼)

Adhesive recommendations

I use sookwang double-sided tape for most of my creating. I do like to add photo mats with the tape runner. The best I had found was ad tech, but they have begun to break mid roll. I’d like to know what others are using. Also, what do you use for vellum. Everything I’ve tried Shows through.

✅ Our Scrappy Mad Libs Story is Complete!

🌟 The Day My Mini Album Took Over My Craft Desk!

I thought I was having a calm, Cattywampus morning in my craft room… but no.

I pulled out my Mini Album ready to create, and chaos struck almost immediately.

I grabbed my trusty Bone Folder and cut Fourteen and Two Thirds pieces of paper before I realized I was Celebrating the wrong Vellum the entire time!

Then, out of nowhere, my Paper Poinsettias fell on the floor and made a huge Pspspspsps.

I tried jumping over the mess, but all I could feel was Elastic and a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, a handful of Popcorn calmed my nerves, and I grabbed my leftover Pipe Cleaners to fix the disaster.

Somehow, despite the madness, the mini album looked amazing — a true masterpiece of creativity… and chaos! 😆

❤️ I love how each of you added your own touch to this silly story! Should we make another round soon? Maybe “When My Bone Folder Went Missing”? 😂 Comment below if you’re in for round two!

✂️ Scrappy Mad Libs: The Day My Mini Album Took Over My Craft Desk!

Hi Friends! ❤️
I thought we could do something a little different and a lot of fun today — a Scrappy Mad Libs Game!

I have a silly story about a wild day in the craft room (you’ll hear it soon 😉), but first, I need your help filling in the blanks!

There are 12 prompts — things like an emotion, a snack, or a craft supply — and I want each of you to pick one number and comment below with a ridiculous answer.

Once all 12 numbers are filled, I’ll plug in your words and read the full story aloud on a video post. I think it will be hilarious! 😆

✨ Example: 
“#4 — twelve-and-a-half!”
“#11 — chocolate-covered pretzels!”

🗒 The Prompt List:

1. Adjective
2. Type of album (mini, folio, journal, etc.)
3. Craft tool
4. Number
5. Verb ending in -ing
6. Type of paper
7. Embellishment
8. Funny sound
9. Verb
10. Emotion
11. Snack
12. Craft supply

(Be sure to check the comments before you post so we don’t get doubles!)

🎉 What Happens Next:

When everyone’s answers are in, I’ll reveal our silly story on a video post here in this channel..hehe!
🌟 “The Day My Mini Album Took Over My Craft Desk!” 🌟
— written by all of us! 💗

It was so cool to learn to cut a frame using paper trimmer. I was struggling with it in my previous projects using a cutter🥲Thanks to you Francės Long 🤗

This is the Slim Folio with an extra pocket on the spine for extra pictures and storage. This album was sooo much fun. I resisted the urge to add a shaker on that tall frame in the back cover. I need to stop being so obsessed with shakers!!! I'm constantly looking for fun confetti. 🎉

A friend wanted 2 softball scrapbook for her daughters for Christmas. I played softball a really, really, really long time ago in high school. Like way before the softballs were this neon yellow 🥎. Which doesn't color match with much.

I found this PhotoPlay paper and it's cool, but the black pages are kind of shiny. I've never worked with paper like it before.

There are so.many fun things in this album. Fun to explore.

Hi Friends,

I’m so happy to be here with you for this special one. 💕 This project came to life through a fun community collaboration! I reached out to three of our active friends here in our community and asked if they’d like to share a sketch idea for an interactive page, then I would teach it in class—and they absolutely ran with it!

✨Introducing our three amazing Concept Queens: Veronica Hebard, Lee Zenko , and Syreeta Thomas

Each of them brought such unique inspiration to the table, and I had a blast turning their sketches into a reality. I really hope you love it you three! I cannot wait to see yours--and everyone else's renditions!

Come watch the full album walkthrough and class here

Thank you again Veronica, Lee and Syreeta for this unforgettable opportunity to connect with you ❤️
