Tammy Kirk, you will find that in this beautiful community of paper crafters, we all want to help each other learn, whether it’s paper issues, cutting issues, etc. I have found that there just aren’t unkind people here. Never be embarrassed or timid about asking questions. Someone will jump in and help you. No one will belittle you or make fun of you. I definitely believe that this amazing space is because we all love Francės and the group is made up of all just really kind and helpful people. 🥰

I'm loving this idea!!! Sometimes when I stop, I write down the time on a post-it so that I know where to start when I come back to finish. This will make it so much easier!!

Maybe I’ll have time to make this one 🤭🥰

Syreeta Thomas, I use Design Space for some things but I haven’t gone as in-depth as you have. I use the Beginner’s Album to make baby books and I have a template saved in Design Space for the baby stats…name, date, weight, etc. I also have some mats in there as well. The layered tickets that go in the front and back pockets are also in there. I’ll have to use it more for the other albums though.

I love everything about this album!! It’s beautiful!! I use this album almost exclusively as a baby album for gifts and to sell. I absolutely love how different it looks using different paper!! Paper Rose is one of my very favorite paper companies and you really used this paper pack to its best ability. Well done!!

I always do. If it’s an album I know I’m going to make over and over, I print it out so I can add notes so I know if I changed how I did something, or if I want to try something different the next time.

Francės, buy one that looks soft. They have some that are “stiffer” looking. I don’t like these as much. It is, after all, an adhesive eraser, which means, if you try to use the stiffer one, it can tear your paper. I use it in my books as well for erasing adhesive. I’m not sure about glue, but it works great to remove things like ATG tape, AdTech, etc.

I have a small arsenal of scissors as well, lol. My go to pair for most of my cutting, especially fussy cutting, are a pair of Cutterbees snips. I’m a Stampin’Up demonstrator so I also gravitate toward my SU snips. (Side note, I clean them often with an adhesive eraser. They come clean quickly and without having to use something like an alcohol wipe or something else that you have to wait for to dry.)
