- Learn how easy it is to create sweet and pretty journals using file folder dies from Elizabeth Craft Designs. In this video I share three ways, from easiest to more advanced, as you'll learn the basic 3-hole pamphlet stitch, how to make a traveler's notebook cover from scratch, and then a hard-bound book with a stitched binding.
The 49 and Market collection I used in some of the projects is the Curators Botanical 12 x 12 Collection. Here is a link to it and some of my other current favorite crafting supplies: www.amazon.com...

This reminds me of books we made in grade school. It may have been for Young Authors. You wrote a story and made a book for it. I really want to share this with my daughters!
Cool! I hope you do!
What a great video! This is exactly what I wanted to learn, and Annette, you made it so easy to understand. Thank you for posting such an excellent video! ❤
Thanks so much! I'm delighted you liked it, found it easy to understand, and left such a wonderful comment. Thanks!!
Thank you so much Annette I really really enjoyed watching you create all these amazing and inspiring journals. I made my granddaughters a journal each one year, instead of a birthday card. And even though I say it they turned out really well and the girls loved them too. So mission accomplished. I love ❤❤❤❤❤ these that you’ve created too. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Wonderful! I'm so happy you were inspired to make your own. What a great idea to make these in place of birthday cards. How nice!
I love this Journals and the your way of teaching. Thank you for the tutorial.😘😘
Hi Adelaide and thank you! I'm happy to hear that. Thanks for watching and for the kind words. 😊
Fabulous walk through and book making tutorials Annette, I loved the last one, lots of room for all kinds of everything 🤗🥰🤗
Thanks Sheila! These are all really fun to make, but I agree that last one is my personal favorite too. Thanks for watching.
So beautiful. Thank you for the instructions you are a great teacher
Thank you so much Alma. I'm so happy you think so. Thanks for watching.
WOW- this is amazing. Annette, thank you for generously sharing all your tips, tricks and fabulous finished journals. Your teaching style and step by step instructions are exceptional- very easy to follow! Your paper and fabric choices are wonderful. Thank you!
Thank you so much Marilyn! You've officially made my day. 😊
I love this video so much💕Thanks Annette😊Gina Peterson-Tennessee
Wonderful, thanks Gina! It was a long one, so thanks for watching.
These are amazing! How have I not seen your videos before?! I just subscribed! 💕🌸
Hi Karen, and welcome! I’m glad you found me, and enjoyed this video.
Loved watching you make these. Xxxx
Thanks Julie! That makes me happy. Thanks for watching.
This was so informative. I’m going to try that elastic version first.
Wonderful! Thanks. Have fun making yours. I did find that the Kraft Tex alone was a bit flimsy, which I think I mention in the video, so you'll want to line it or double it up for it not to bend too much. Especially the prewashed kind.
So beautiful and professional TN.
Thank you so much Raquel!
Love your videos.❤❤
Thanks so much Marie. That's so nice to hear.
Thank you for the fantastic video ❤️
Thank YOU Wilma for watching. I'm happy you enjoyed it.
Fabulous. These are so great!
Thanks Celine. So happy you like them. They sure were fun to make!
Great video. Love these ideas.
Awesome, thanks Cindy!
Thanks for the Instructions, love these, maybe one day ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much Chris. Once you do one, you're kinda hooked. Just saying. Hope you give it a try.
loved this!!
Wonderful! Thank you.
Just found some Kraft Ed in my stash that I had forgotten I had purchased 🙃. Tyfs these ideas!!!
Awesome Jama! I would definitely double it up, or put a layer of reinforcement on the inner spine if you go with the Kraft Tex method. It tends to bend too much on a single layer. Thanks for watching.
I really like the 5 stitch binding thank you for sharing your talents.
Thanks Torree. That's my favorite too. Thanks for watching.
Great tutorial, as always! You are both a very talented maker and teacher!
Well thank you so much!
Absolutely fantastic, thank you so much for taking the time to show us step by step 💐💕
Happy to help! Thanks for watching.
Great tutorial. Love all the booklets, TB and book. ❤
Thanks Sharon. 😊 I wish I didn't have to sleep because I want to make lots more!
You know I'll be trying these! Love the various ways to build them. Just beautiful.
Thanks! That's great to hear. I hope you have fun trying one of these out.
Love it! 🖤
Thanks Marie Claire!

Love these! Great ideas for next year!!! 📚
Thanks! Or any time of the year!
These are so cute and unique - thank you Annette for this tutorial!
Thanks Cheryl. So happy you enjoyed it.
I am so going to try all 3 !!! Thank You for sharing ! (I’m pretty excited!)
Yay! I hope you do! Thanks for your excitement!!
Love watching your tutorials!! Your absolutely amazing at what you do!!
Thanks SO much Kristie. That's very kind. I'm so happy you're enjoying my tutorials. Thanks for watching.
Wow Annette, again I've learned so much watching you. You really have a great way of teaching. All of your books are amazing. Love them
thank you so much Shirley! That means everything to me. My goal is always to educate and inspire. ❤
I usually wait until the sewing is done and then trim the fore-edge, then round those edges.
Very nice journals, Annette! I would love any one of them in my stocking. I've done the three hole phamplet stitch, but not the five. Didn't look too hard to do. I will more than likely be making some of these. Thank you and take care.
Hi Carole and thank you! The five-hole stitched binding is definitely not "hard" just a little tedious for some people. It's my personal favorite though. It really holds up well like a real book. I hope you enjoy making yours.
Fab!
Thanks Mary!
Wanted to tell you I enjoyed your vlog! Maybe you could demonstrate your selphy printer. I have one that is much smaller and would like to see how the large one works.
Hi Kathy and thank you. I am keeping a running list of things to share in my next vlog, so thank you. I've added your request to the list. Thanks for watching.
I love each of these journals Annette. Thank you for taking the time to prepare this instructional video. I really want to try creating the chipboard journal. The designer paper you used is beautiful. I wish you and your family a joyous Christmas season. 🎄
Thank you so much! I hope you DO try one. The hard cover one is my personal favorite and I hope to make more soon. Have fun with yours and Happy Holidays to you as well. ❤
Absolutely LOVE these! You are so talented. Would you mind telling me what die cutting machine do you use?
Sorry for such a late reply. I use the Sizzix Vagabond 2 machine for most of my die-cutting.
I always get so excited when I see that you have a new journal out!! I love them all. Can I ask what glue stick you use? I’m having trouble finding one that works well
Thanks so much Sherry. I've been using Uhu Stic lately and it's my new favorite. Here's a link to my Amazon favorites if you want to check it out: www.amazon.com/shop/annettegreen?ref=ac_inf_tb_vh
Thank you. I just ordered it!
Tyvek or other synthetic paper (stone paper) is great for strengthening the spine.
I've never heard of Stone Paper, so that's interesting. Thanks Sharon.
I’m new to your channel. I have purchase some Elizabeth Crafts planner essentials and would like to store on magnetic sheets. Can you recommend a brand. I’ve looked online and many comments say the magnets are not strong enough for dies. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the inspiration, you could also have used tyvek to re-enforce the first journal
Yes! Tyvek too. Thanks. I even have some of that in my stash.
Love the journals. I'm new to inks so I have a question. I love the faint image of the flowers. Do I remember or misremember, oxides are water reactive, will the ink smear if writing in the journal with a marker? Thanks.
Thank you Nancy, and that's an excellent question. Yes, Oxides are water reactive, so I would stay away from a marker. Instead I would use a ballpoint pen. If i had a light enough ink in archival, I would've used that. Thanks for watching and for your question.
What die cutting machine do you use? I am so inspired by your videos that I want to buy one, but I have no idea what to buy! Thank you for any help!
Sorry for the delayed response. Here's the perfect video for you to check out, as I recently reviewed different die-cutting machines and what I like to use: ruclips.net/video/kXSWFaGI5FI/видео.htmlsi=5jZcuXxkzbCTwv4W
@@AnnetteGreen thank you so much!! 🥰♥️
File folder set 1 and file folder set 2, are they the same size folders on both 1 and 2.
Yes, same size
Love how you made the journals Annette, thank you for showing us ! ❤❤❤
Thanks Esther! I loved making them. That file folder die is the perfect size.
