Hi everyone!

My name is Liz and for my birthday, my mom bought me some craft supplies and we made these books together! It’s been so long since I’ve had the time to actually bond with my mom, and now I have a new obsession hobby!

I can’t wait to see what everyone else creates ☺️

Working on my version of the Veleeta album, Using a Wizard of Oz theme. Finished the album and base pages, As well as the Shaker. Taking it with me on a weekend scrapbook retreat this weekend. Will finish the designer paper and add the photo mats. Using photos from a girls weekend last summer. We went to see Wizard of Oz at a dinner theater, and had a scrapbook weekend. So much fun. Cant wait to post the finished product. Lol

I'm Julie. After discovering YBM on Pinterest a couple of years ago, I finally created an account and joined the group yesterday. I chose the XL Notepad for my project using loose papers from Hobby Lobby. I have yet to master the art of embellishing and the struggle to have it all line up perfectly is real but it's an accomplishment and it's so cute.

Hi crafty friends! How do you all keep track of which tutorial you used for which album?? I need help organizing this

My first album from the mini polka dot class. So much fun! Used my favorite Ech Park Paper; Have A Nice Day! Thanks Frances for the wonderful instructions!

I am done with the Flutter Folio February Challenge just in time for Valentines 💘 Day! I used Stampin UP’s “Made With Love” Designer Series Paper as well as their “Love Notes” 6x6 paper pack. I made the front cover a shaker cover with “Loose Valentine” assortment from Stampin Up and some of their retired clear round shaker balls. This was so much fun, I had a few minor mistakes, but don’t think they are noticeable. I am getting so good at having a “work around” for any mistake. Frances, again you make these challenges so much fun! Thank you so much!

Made this beginners mini albums for my niece her beautiful dog Brody pass away on Monday. Just a little something to remember him by..

I finished the Flutter Folio!

I followed the original internal structure as given, but I did not recreate the original cover — mostly because I couldn’t find my acetate. And the fact that it is clear is not helping me locate it. It could be anywhere. It could be nowhere. We may never know.

So instead, I redesigned the inside cover using inspiration from the Petals Mini Album and called it a creative decision.

I also added a heart-shaped die cut to create a peek-a-boo pocket.

That heart die cut was supposed to be a “cute little feature.”

It is now a lifestyle choice.

I used it roughly 50 times-okay, it was 5-but once I commit to a shape, I COMMIT. There are hearts in places that don’t even need hearts. I regret nothing.

Paper-wise, I used a mix of Echo Park and Cartabella collections — definitely My Valentine and another Valentine pack from my scrap bin that has forgotten its own name but still delivered strong floral energy.

So overall:

✔Original internal structure

✔Missing invisible acetate

✔Inside cover redesign

✔Peek-a-boo heart pocket ✔Aggressively committed heart era

And that’s my official build report.
