Made my Abstract Folio!! Last weekend we went on a walking tour in Sāo Paulo with a photo club and I decided to make the Abstract Folio with a photography theme. I had to make this quickly and did not do all of the cutouts that Frances did.
I made a blog post with links to everything I used, more photos, and a link to the walk-thru on my YouTube Channel -

Enjoy the rest of your day everyone.
Utter newbie here, but my daughters (11 & 13) and I (46) are starting books for our upcoming spring break.
Quick question - is it common for the paper edges at the spine to split? (The 80# cardstock). Am I using too much force to bend the cover of the album? not enough force? or is it a "calm down newbie that's what happens" thing?
Also - I have a hard time following a tutorial exactly, so I love that I can watch a few and add bits and pieces from one album/folio into another. I'm totally geeking out right now.
Estoy muy enamorada del Slim fotofolio! Fue el primer proyecto que hice de Francés y lo volví hacer con esta bella colección!
Translation : I’m very in love with the Slim Folio! It was the first Frances project I did and I did it again with this beautiful collection!
To all crafters. I have been asked to make 5 different albums for males from age 8 to 21. Can anyone share some page samples? Can't wait to see what your ideas are.
All albums will have 4 interactive pages.
Thanking you in advance.

Happy Halloween everyone - at least to those that celebrate. I finished my Ho Ho Hello album for the Move My Mojo Challenge and I freakin love it. I used Harry Potter papers from Paper House Productions. I did have to change it a bit on the inside due to different photo sizes here in Brasil. Here are a few photos. I will post a video and more photos today on the YBOM Facebook page and on my YT Channel and Blog. Cannot wait to see what everyone else made.


Cleaning my desk I found a stack of white photo panels only to realize I didn’t write from which album it is 🥲🥲🥲😫😫😫
Hi everyone. I am so excited to have found Frances’ YouTube channel and joined this group. I am a retired RN and love having time to do my crafting. I live in Beaumont California with the love of my life, husband Tim. I have been making cards for a long time and just recently got interested in making folios and albums. I am hooked. Frances, I love your tutorials. I love how much you love what you’re are doing. Your teaching has improved my craft a lot. Thanks so much. I am working on the album Today. I hope to post picts eventually. There are so many of your classes I want to do. Being retired doesn’t mean you are not busy. 😵💫
Sorry I have been MIA work has been crazy. I love see everyone albums.






Here is a couple of pictures from the challenge I started decorating my book.
I am Ravenclaw so my the outside of my book will be blue plaid.
Hello beautiful YBM fam! Do you know where I can find the class tutorial for album/page design?
