This was a great video. I learned so many tips on how to do the book and hinges. I have so many problems with those. My pages always go on crooked!! I’ll try these on my next album. Thank you got sharing.
Not sure how I started watching this today but love your teaching, your voice is calming and I am left handed so we share in lots of mechanical problems, like ink coated hands from just writing!
You are amazing! Can't believe this is your first video! Well, I do believe you, it's just that it's done so well. Can't wait to see what you come up with next!! Thanks!
Hi Daphne, I have been watching your Blossom series while I am making the same for my mother, and I have ended up watching the base video over and over again to make sure I have everything right. In this video, you insert and glue the pocket pages into the album without the flaps and decoration. But when making the individual pages, the base (I presume this is the pocket page), is not attached to an album. Is this because you're trying to just focus on making the base of the album in this specific video? In your normal process, do you complete the pocket pages while the page is glued into the album? Or do you use a base piece of black paper to position and decorate everything first, and then glue the base piece of black paper to the pocket page? BTW, just love your shop's service, how quickly the paper arrives, the little baggies with charms, and great prices. I make an effort to budget some money every money to get something from your shop. Your videos are so great. You guys are just amazing.
Hi Teresa, thank you so much for the kind words your business means everything to us. Now, on to your question, I use the base build video's over and over so I wanted to show how to install the pocket page as part of base build. I do not install the pocket page until I have added interactive elements because it's at bit easier to manage in my work space. So you can do it either way. Again my prefered method is to work the page outside of the cover because you'll have a flatter surface to decorate. Daphne
@@ScrapNCreateVideos thank you for your answer. I will try it both ways to find out what’s easier. But As I watch the video and practice, it is getting easier to put the package page onto the hinge with all decorations attached so maybe waiting till I’m done with decoration before putting on package page is best way to go too.
I would have never guessed that this is your first tutorial - your explanations and tips are excellent! I just received my Love Notes bundle from you and can’t wait to get started. Thank you for providing this tutorial - you’re a natural at this....
If this is your first tutorial you are a natural! Very easy to follow and clear and concise instructions. One thing which you don't appear to mention is the weight of paper that you use for your cover and pages - I would be grateful if you could let me know as it looks to give a professional finish. Thank you!
I am in total awe of you and these books! I've been watching your videos all weekend. This video was very easy to follow and once I get chipboard and G45 paper (lol), I'm going to give it a go. Wish me luck!!!
I finally gave up on it for two reasons 1) how difficult it was to use 2) the scotch tape was failing on my after a few years. I now use ScorTape brand exclusively. Daphne
I have only just started watching your tutorials but I can already tell that the precise way you do things makes a huge difference in the finished album. I’ve watched a lot of videos but none that look like yours. But you can be sure that I will be using your methods in future! Awesome job on the tutorials!
Thank you so much for sharing your talent...your video is amazing for your first time ...and I spoke to Julie the other day she is just so sweet.... you two ladies are wonderful...
Hi Daphne, thanks for all of your tutorials, they are so Great! I couldn't find in any of them the thickness of the chipboard and cardstock that you are using for the album cover, can you please tell me what is it? or to put a link for the best materials to use? I am trying to order from Amazon the right chipboard and cardstock, I will really appreciate your help. trying to make something beautiful like your for V-day for my husband
What a wonderfully complete video. It is very easy to follow and all the explanations are helpful. Thank you for all your perfectionist techniques. I haven’t made an album yet, so this may be an ignorant question. But, when you are scoring the hinge, why not just start scoring at 2 1/2” and then score every 1/2” from that beginning? Seems less confusing that way. Congratulations on your obvious skills.
I like to have exactly the same amount of paper of each side of the hinge when I'm finished. It is much easier to start at 2 1/2... Glad you liked the video. We have lots in our playlist so check them out. Daphne
Muchas gracias por compartir, la estructura esta súper clara y a partir de ella podemos hacer lo q queramos con la imaginación, aunque no se si podré algún día hacer cosas tan bonitas como las q haces. 😘😘
Hello Daphne. I am just about to start this and I see two different measurements for the album cover when it comes to the chipboard sizes. In the instructions it says the front and back cover are each 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 in. But when I watch the screen it says to cut it at 8 1/2 x 8 1/4. 🤔
Because you need to score 3 sides to create a pocket you really have to go against the grain. I would recommend going with the grain for two of the scores and against for the bottom of the pocket. Daphne
Hi Daphne - I am binge watching all of your videos and loving each one. You are a very talented book maker! My question - you do seem to have a preference for 8.5 x 8.5 albums and I wondered why that is. Is it because the design papers from G45 and Stamperia tend to lend themselves to the 8x8 page size so that you're not getting too much waste and off-cuts? Or do you just prefer that size and are able to use more than 1 pack (in the case of Stamperia) to accommodate whatever design you choose? Thanks for a reply!
I have polled viewers and that is the most requested size. It is a size that works works well with both 12 x 12 paper packs and the 8 x 8 paper packs. I generally use more than one pack as stamperia only has 10 sheets that would not allow for any interactive pages. Daphne
Hi Daphne....you are going to get a kick out of this... I'm new to all this...and have been mostly watching "card making" videos...and something came up from your site and the Stamperia paper caught my eye...so watching your new videos...and love them...so I'm like.. I love the book...and thinking...oh...let me go grab one at Michaels or Hobby Lobby....so off i went to Michaels today...looking at ALL their albums...and nothing with the hinged inserts...nothing with the pocket folders...so i was like...drats...now what....anyway...came home....started watching again...and you mentioned your "playlists" of all the videos......and bam...here it is...you make your OWN books.... I love it....soooooo...just watching this first one now....and looking at the dates from 2 years ago and how this was your "first" video....sooooo see...2 years later...someone (me) is starting from scratch and learning!...cant wait to catch up...so thank you and look forward to many more tutorials!!... Joleen from Florida!!!

Hi. I just finished my cover, after following your wonderful video. Ive had a bit of warping/lining (dont know how to describe it) on the spine edges where the gap is between the spine and covers. Was wondering if I could somehow send you couple photos for your opinion ??. If yes, where would I send them ?....if no.... I understand. thanks
Scrap N Create I wondered if you carefully folded it backwards you could sneak it out... I think the retreats sound so wonderful! My tool is at Etsy. I just created it early this year!
Hi Daphne, me again! Can you confirm the measurements for the chipboard cover and spine? The video shows 8-1/2 x 8-1/4, but the cut list shows 8-1/2 x 8-1/2. And for the inside liner, the video shows 8-1/4 x 8, but the cut list shows 8-3/8 x 8-3/8. Thanks!
Hi Ann - you can use either measurement. At some point i decided to make it square seemed easier and I wanted the cover to extend to protect the pocket inserts which usually stick out about 1/2". If you go with the 8 1/2 x 8 1/4 you will want to make sure the inserts don't stick out beyond the cover (if they do just trim them down a bit. Either way the internal pocket pages remain the same 8 x 8. Daphne
@@ScrapNCreateVideos Thanks for the quick reply Daphne! I was going to use G45 Midnight Masquerade to make this, but now I'm leaning towards G45 Sun Kissed! Can't wait to start! Thanks again for the hard work you put into your video.... greatly appreciated!
wow I love them both - but they are very different. Have you had a chance to check out my other tutorials? Interestingly enough I don't have tutorials for either of those collections...I do have a walk through of G45 Midnight masquerade ruclips.net/video/119yXLRAPfI/видео.html course its not 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 but it might inspire you.
What’s the name of this beautiful part and where can I find it! Love your tutorials! Doing a great job. Just keep giving the measurements! Your awesome!
Where can you get chipboard? I never can find it. What do you cut it with? What kind of paper is the black paper? Do you prefer a specific brand? BTW your albums are beyond gorgeous! Masterpieces!
I use medium weight chipboard and I buy it online www.amazon.com/Grafix-Chipboard-12-Inch-Natural-25-Pack/dp/B0013JRFUA I use Neenah astrobright cardstock in eclipse black, white and they have cream. I find this at walmart in the office printer area (not in the craft area). I only use Neenah for my base albums I have tried lots of brands and prefer Neenah (I rarely have and issue with the paper splitting or warping). Glad you found us!

At 26:43 it looked like you didn’t peel off the spine outer tape when placing it down. Please say you did or my ocd will keep me awake wondering, as it has already done so for a bit now. :/
Hello! Just found your channel and your tutorial is AMAZING! You did a great job for your first one. My only question is where do you show how to make the pages? I watched in segments but didn’t think I skipped anything not sure if it is in this video or another one. Thanks for sharing you talent!
It's right at the beginning of the tutorial goto "2:10" The pages are pocket pages so there are two pieces per page. Daphne Glad you found us! Be sure to subscribe and you can browse the playlists we have all our projects grouped by paper collection.
Scrap N Create AHHH! Ok in my defense I watched the video over several days!!!! 😂. I can’t believe I totally spaced that whole part and when I just started it again where you said I knew I had seen it because I remembered thinking I pull my score tape down partially so I can center and place just like you do. Thanks for the patient reply and sorry for the ditzy question!
No problem - find myself "spacing out" when watching youtube and often have to rewatch its kinda like having to re-read the same line in a book. Daphne
Hi Daphne, quick question....below the video it says cut chipboard 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 but video says cut chipboard 8 1/2 x 8 1/4...I am assuming the video is the correct measurement but wanted to double check first. Thanks!
Hi Rita! You can make it either way. I sued to make my albums 8 1/2 x 8 1/4 then switched to make it a square 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 . The chipboard only affects the cover the pages flaps pockets inserts will not change. Daphne
Hi Daphne. When you did your Microcosmos album, you changed the base to 8 1/4 X 8 1/4. Which one do you prefer? Would you go back to 8 1/2 instead? Thank you.
I like both - I think that the 8 1/2 inch does a better job of protecting the pocket page inserts. So I'm most likely going to go back to the as a standard. Daphne
Hi Paula can you give me a little more information on what your looking for? This video is a base build. If you are looking for interactive elements that get added....see our playlists.ruclips.net/user/ScrapNCreateVideosplaylists?view_as=subscriber
Im going to make this album next, but it will only be my third one. Im really worried about attaching the pages properly to the hinges. I am wondering if there is another way to do it. I did do a previous album using a waterfall technique but that had single pages not pocket pages.
www.bloglovin.com/blogs/annes-papercreations-3646478/how-to-make-hinges-spines-binding-for-mini-4187722997 Here is one of the most comprehensive tutorials covering different binding methods for mini albums. Daphne
when it comes to hinges its really preference. with/or without the pocket the overall mini album looks pretty much the same you just have less photo space. Daphn
For my album bases I use 8 1/2 x 11 Astrobight by Neenah, and I use recollections. Having said that I have not really found a good 12 x12 cardstock and reinforce my spines with book binding tape. Daphne
Honestly you have done a wonderful job job in all

Hi Daphne. When you did your Microcosmos album, you changed the base to 8 1/4 X 8 1/4. Which one do you prefer? Would you go back to 8 1/2 instead? Thank you.
I like both - I think that the 8 1/2 inch does a better job of protecting the pocket page inserts. So I'm most likely going to go back to the as a standard. Daphne
The black card stock for this mini album is what weight?
65 lb I used Astrobright in Eclipse Black
What brand of black card stock is used for the cover?
I use hobby lobby 12 x 12 for the cover then add book binding tape to the spine hinge area
Hello, I see 2 different widths of Sor tape. What are the widths ?
My two goto sizes are 3/8th and 5/8th inch
Question! What if you are interested in a 5 signature album? What do you need to do?
Hi Linda, I’ve created a quick tutorial on planning your hinge and spine. Daphne
ok where is the next step to finish this album?
Hi Paula can you give me a little more information on what your looking for? This video is a base build. If you are looking for interactive elements that get added....see our playlists.ruclips.net/user/ScrapNCreateVideosplaylists?view_as=subscriber
What cardstock should I use to create my album?
I used Neenah Astrobight in eclipse black
Im going to make this album next, but it will only be my third one. Im really worried about attaching the pages properly to the hinges. I am wondering if there is another way to do it. I did do a previous album using a waterfall technique but that had single pages not pocket pages.

Here is one of the most comprehensive tutorials covering different binding methods for mini albums. Daphne
when it comes to hinges its really preference. with/or without the pocket the overall mini album looks pretty much the same you just have less photo space. Daphn
Hi Daphne, may I ask what 12x12 paper you use?
For my album bases I use 8 1/2 x 11 Astrobight by Neenah, and I use recollections. Having said that I have not really found a good 12 x12 cardstock and reinforce my spines with book binding tape. Daphne
What brand and weight paper do you use?
The base album is constructed with 65lb Astrobrite by Neehna

What kind of paper cutter do you use to cut chipboard, your tutorial is great, very comprehensive, thank you
I use a metal ruler and a box cutter. I've tried using several methods but have found the best results using old school methods. Daphne
