I’m back home and settled in. Been home about a week! I’ve been working on the bring it on holiday challenge and hope to have it complete in a couple days! I’ve run out of paper lol but when did that stop anyone? Hmm? Trip to hobby lobby and I’ll be back at it!




Hi there!
I created this little guy, yesterday, in about 4 hours. I've yet to decorate the cover but I'm all ready to go.
I used the Free Folio to start me off & remind me of Frances's awesome tips, like how to fold around the corners when creating the cover. That step makes such a difference! It's been a year since I made my last album, & I've just made 2, so I'm super grateful for the availability of the classes!
I kept this book super simple because it's a belated Christmas gift for my MIL & I needed something her fingers could cope with. I love all of the different pages & pockets that we can have but I know that she'd struggle somewhat.
I'm still waiting on the photo store to receive its paper order, hence the book being late. They ran out of paper 2 days before Christmas!
This book is dedicated to my youngest son's graduation for senior Formal, AKA Senior Prom for those in the US.
The blue paper is from the Gorjus collection.
I'm super excited to make my own album with these photos & I'm having so much fun practising on smaller books.
Thank you Frances for your classes & this group. It's the answer I've been searching for. ❤️🙏
















Hello Friends! Hope everyone in the LA area is safe and if you’re in the Midwest, I hope you are staying warm and enjoying the snow 😊
3 versions of the Cheer Flip Folio. Used ribbon ties instead of magnets, increased the size of 1 by 1/2” to show more of the fun paper, and used decorative paper instead in black base paper on another. Extremely quick to put together and makes a great gift.
Enjoy!l
TIP 2/3 - If you do a slightly different angle for your "BC Pockets you'll STILL be totally good to go! ( Abstract Folio - Part Two 35:47 )
Process - 3/3 TIP: wanted to throw this in there so you know what to do if you happened to make your large BC Pocket a swoop shape :)


Added some texture to the front of my album. Almost finished!
