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.

First time posting. Nervous to share my finished projects. This is the Gatefold Folio v2 using Echo Park Disney Voyage. I made this as a gift for my co-worker who took her children on a Disney cruise. Hope you all like it.

I didn't like my purple fairy book so tried the challenge again. I like this one more and had a fun time with the new base color (I don't think I've don't craft paper color before). I love these challenges! I can use some of the papers on the back shelf.

The school book is finished. It's gaudy😂, but I love it.
It holds around 80 pictures and has designated spots for K-12 pictures.

I completed the August challenge! A couple of little details only to do but overall done. Wanted to post now before pre I forgot! I used Echo Park “ Let’s Go Travel” Paper pack— I had a bunch left over as I used to make “ The BigOl’ Album” a couple years ago for our New Zealand trip! This was a fun project! I hope you like it! There were a couple mistakes where I reversed things but overall it does not make a difference, I was able to make it all work.
