Folio - Flip Journal


Folio - Flip Journal


This project was inspired by Idaize on YT. I found her videos so easy to follow and not over sensory loaded either. Go check her out, she has plenty of projects to be inspired by..

So this was included as a part of the swaps for this month.
Of course, like normal, I added extra layers to make the project fit my style and sprinkle of creativeness to make it a bit different.

I used the Ephemera Queen collection from Graphic 45.
For those that have been around for a while, you'll know that I've used this collection a few times for some BIG projects, but I can honestly say I still have a little bit left. Definitely enough for one or two more projects in the future. :)

Below you'll see the photos of each page and added extra bits like the layers that have Velcro dots on the front.

I certainly love all of the tuck spots and pockets this album has.

Insect tags

I'm so lucky to have so many different collections in my craft room, (even after culling almost half), that I am able to make ALL of these projects that I've share so far this year without having to spend any $ on new supplies.
This also means that I am able to bring the spotlight back to some older collections and remind everyone to USE YOUR SUPPLIES.


The first I'm sharing is using the Seize the Day collection from Uniquely Creative.

Fairly simple tag with some fussy cut added pieces. Snails and Ladybugs make this the cutest little garden scene.




Next tag up was made using Bottlebrush collectable pieces from Kaisercraft.




Keeping the Kaisercraft collections flowing, I grabbed out this incredibly OLD collection "Junglebug".... Honestly, I would guess it has to be at least close to 15yrs old. lol

But seriously, how good is it that I'm using up these old supplies!
I used the 6x6 paper pad for this tag.

Features plenty of little bugs... Rhino Beetle, Snail and Butterflies

Frame clusters

 


I was on an absolute roll with making swaps last month. I actually put these together at the same time as the Pocket Windows cause I wanted to use the same collections.

Frames with Clusters

Vintage Coastal - Simple Stories
White Christmas - Kaisercraft
Happy Place - Asuka
I honestly believe I could sit here all day and put these together. It was very relaxing and since the collections all matched, I didn’t have to put too much thought into coordination. lol.

Feminine Slimline card

 


Slimline Feminine Card


First off, I'm going to send a special shout out and thanks to Maureen who jumped in and volunteered to be my swap partner for this swap. I was making this card during a zoom crop, only to realise that I had folded it the wrong way and was not quite up to the correct size specs. Maureen was so lovely and said she'd partner up with me instead of me having to redo the card.

I absolutely LOVED putting this card together.. It just kind of keep growing and evolving as I went along.

I used the Romantic Journal collection from Stamperia.
then add a couple of frames, flowers and that feather just makes it all seem so lush! The bling key and glass butterfly to make it sparkle too.

Window Pockets with a Twist


Window Pockets with a twist.

How adorable are these!!
The pockets have a window cut out. I haven’t seen these before, and had so much fun putting them together.
You can add acetate or vellum over the window if needed, but I didn’t need to.
I used three different collections for these projects.
Vintage Coastal - Simple Stories
White Christmas - Kaisercraft
Happy Place - Asuka
Each pocket has their own tag included with a couple of small pieces I added in, incase the swap partner would like to use these in their future projects.

Card topper

 


Card Topper - All about books


This one had me on the shelf for a little while.
I knew I wanted to join in, but I couldn't remember if I still had the required paper and pieces still in my stash or if I had thrown it all out during the cull at the start of the year. lol ...

Thankfully I actually had HEAPS that would suit and landed on this one. With a Harry Potter theme, I used the colour cuts from Scrapbook Fantasies and cute paper backing from a genuine HP set.

This was so much fun to finally put together.
What do you think of the library scene I tried to set here with Hedwig, the writing quills and the lantern Harry uses to sneak around under his cloak.

Aussie themed card

 


Aussie themed


I honestly couldn’t decide which Animal fussy cut I wanted to use, so ended up creating a pocket and slid the Emu & Koala in as design elements. The focus of the Crocodile allowed me to make a square 5” card for something a bit different. Basic, but different.
I used Kraft cardstock as the card base, then an ivory cardstock as the card topper layers.
Scrapbook Fantasies - Aussie Grunge collection for all of the cute fussy cut & colour cut pieces.
