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!

Jodi

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

How does a new member find past classes that I can participate in.  The February challenge specifically I adore.  I am just posting questions here hoping someone manages to help me.  I have also sent an inquiry to Francis - it's just me not totally understanding how this works.  Thx. Love all the work seen here.

Hi all, finally finishing February’s challenge😅I messed up a little bit with the pocket angles. I used to work with wet glue. So I have room to adjust a little bit. This time I used double sided tapes. It was quite challenging to put papers in right place. I used « Chocolate kiss » collection by mintaypapers. Thank you Francės Long for this awesome class. Love this structure✨

My first attempt at the #mariamementobox ! I will definitely try this again. It was challenging but I love the endless ideas for this. I used the graphic45 Life is Abundant collection.
