Just want to clarify...Frances, you have created a 2 page scrapbook page and when we are done, we will be able to create a 12x12 total book?Ā  Ā If I wanted to make a book to commemorate say an upcoming family trip, can I choose my patterned paper with that in mind?Ā  Ā Or are you going to use a different theme for your design?Ā  Ā I'm thinking in terms of a cruise trip we have planned next year and making the entire book with cruise themed paper?Ā  Ā What do you think???

Hi Frances!

This was such a very interesting and valuable podcast. I have been making your albums since about 2021. As someone mentioned mine have been mostly for gifts. I will be participating in my local Churches, Holiday House Festival in November and I will have some of your projects that I have made to sell. I will be purchasing the teach and sell permit today or tomorrow. This was so helpful. My question for you is since I am dealing with my Church I was going to keep the prices reasonable, but I will be giving a stipend to my Church as a donation. Thanks so much for your information. This was great!

When you plan / make a project do you ever ā€œover purchaseā€ your design paper? I do that and then sometimes I half enough to make a second project but sometimes not.

I am always using scraps to make new cards— many times able to match up with some old solid color scraps. I recently made 5 ā€œCheerflipā€ Folios and with the scraps I used them to make Christmas card fronts. I think so far I have about 8

I am Angela from Buckeye AZ. I too found Frances by accident when searching for album designs. My first YBM album was in 2020, the 8x8 Baby album as a gift for a conworker having her first baby. I decided to make 2 at the same time and being it was my first album, it took me forever, at least it seemed that way! My friend was having a girl and her nursery theme was cherry blossoms. I struggled finding scrapbook paper with cherry blossoms and ended up finding wrapping paper that I bought online and cut down to 12 x 12 sheets. It came out beautiful! I was buying only single tutorials back then but have since subscribed for all the classes and get the podcasts too. I have made several designs since the first album mostly for gifts. Frances’ teaching style is awesome as she takes her time and gives encouragement all the way. I am getting to know her style better and can anticipate her next steps! I love the visuals and having a cut list. I post all my projects on the Mini Album Artists—YBM Students Facebook page. Thank you Frances ad hope everyone has as much fun as I do!
