I think that your lap book came out wonderful. I liked watching you and I agree it was entertaining and relaxing. Loved this. See ya again. Lin
Love it Mike well done thanks for your lovely work 🇦🇺😉👍🏻
I really appreciate your videos. You get right to the day’s topic and demonstrate the info very clearly. I have learned a lot from you, Mike. Thank you.
Thank you for a less complicated way to do flip out pages. Excellent video.
I’ve watched 23 secs of this video and I can say I absolutely love the content of this album and I want to make one. I love how masculine it is. So cool. Glad I stumbled upon you and it’s great to hear from the men. Bravo, I’ll be hitting that subscribe button now. Judith
Welcome Judith!
Spreading the glue with a bit of a credit card is a great idea! DOH! why don't I think of such things. Simple and effective. :-)
Thank you for creating this helpful video❤
Mike love this series of videos can’t wait to make one
Thank you so much. I watched all the lap book videos and already started my own. You are easy to follow and understand.
Nice to see another William Morris fan.
Wow! How easy you make this look. I'm ready to try this in my new journal...how fun!
I loved this video I cannot do it but I love it it did a great job
Made a mistake in glueing the foldout page to the book. Ended up taping a third piece of paper to the other two then attaching the signature to the book with elastic string. Worked out, and I have pages that flip out and are foldable just like yours. I have had such fun making this project - even with all the mistakes I made. I will definitely recommend your series of videos to anyone wanting to make a lapbook.
I love this lapbook Mike. Thanks.
I'm doing this, right now, while watching. 🤣🤣 I have to use my own Tim paper bc I have no printer, but it's fine. Thanks for sharing.
I saw the whole series and I just love it!!
Great tutorial. TFS. 👍🏻👍🏻
You’re so inspiring!! I especially love your masculine projects that are so badly needed in the craft world! many of us struggle to find ideas to make/gift for the men in our lives. Every one of your tuts is amazing, clear instructions and to the point! Tfs 🙏 PS: it’d be amazing if you could please link other videos in this lap book series as I can’t find them easily right now. I have several TH paper pads and really want to make one of these lap books, it’s def worth using my TH stash lol
Great job...a very neat look....thank you.
Thanks for this. You have simplified the process so well. As always the clarity of your presentation is a great inducement to trying new things
You are absolutely right. Mike explains and demos so clearly that I know I can make a lap book too. He’s very encouraging.
You make it look so easy! great job!
Awesome lapbook!
I am totally enjoying the process of the making of your lap journals. They are awesome.
I love using masking tape. I just stamp or paint it to look more like washi. I think is looks like muslin when tea dyed. Beautiful book Mike.
Great series, Mike. You are a proper treasure! :)
Love the whole book Mike. Will be making one for sure
Clear instructions for all the compoments of your lapbook. Thanks!
Thanks ever so much for this series! I love both of your lap books. Now I will have to construct one of my own! Books are so much fun to create, and don't have to be finished in just one sitting.
Another great video! I love how you start and end your tutorials with you talking. I like to know who is doing the tutorials and a picture is truly worth a thousand words! Love the lap book and I'm sorry to see the series end. TFS, Mike!
Very cool!
Love the lapbook! I have a few family members that would enjoy one, so I'm going to make a few as gifts. Thank you for sharing these tutorials! You never fail to inspire me to get in my craft studio and create!!!
The best series on RUclips for sure!! Thank you for being so generous & kind in sharing this with us...much appreciated.
You do great work!
Mike, I love watching you create the many parts of this book. Thanks for sharing
I love it Mike thank you for sharing.
Mike, It looks wonderful! Turned out great! You are such an inspiration. Love all your work and guidance. Thank you!
Lovely clear instructions. The lapbook looks great! TFS Mike.
Thank you so much 😊 Mike. I really love 💕 that lapbook. I’ve just seen this last page, so I’ll have a look 👀 at the previous ones....but as always these tutorials are awesome and fantastic, and a joy to watch. Love it 😊
OMG I JUST FOUND YOUR SITE AND I LOVE IT. YOU EXPLAIN EVERYTHING SIMPLE AND SUCH A WONDERFUL LAPBOOK . THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SHOW US. I WILL DEFINITELY LOOK FOR MORE OF YOUR U TUBES.
Great lap book. Love it! I used your method and am creating a "friendship" book for a friend who's retiring soon. I tried washi tape with disappointing success, but rescued it with masking tape. Washi tape just doesn't have enough adhesive. It's been a fun journey watching you do yours, then working on mine. I'll share it on my blog when done. No videos, but some photos. Have a great weekend!
Having always made things to give away , this has inspired me to make something nice for myself. Thanks for sharing . Ox
Great tutorial.thank you.
Thank You for sharing Mike. Love this project :-)
Awesome series Mike! Thanks so much! ♡
Thank you for this video! I was having a major mental block on figuring this out. I have really enjoyed this series, thanks again.
Great lap book! I may have to try making one soon. Thanks for the informative videos. You are full of inspiration!
Thank you for the tutorial. Your easy to follow and straight forward. A+ in my book.
I've been watching a few videos on Lapbooks, you've convinced me!! Thx for sharing and doing the tutorial. xxx K
Love this and appreciate you straight forward directions. Very clear to understand! Thanks so much!
Just love it, thank you 😉
AMAZING!!! Love it! 😍
This is great, I've got my card ready and I'm having a go at this :-)
Thanks Mike, it's really cool x
I just found your channel. I see this was over a year ago. You really impressed me. I've been trying to find a non complicated way to add a flip page. I have 2 12 x 12 packs of gentlemen's emphera pages. I was at a loss and was wavering on passing them on. Not anymore. I look forward to exploring your channel.
Thank you! Spectacular.
Hello Mike, I have throughly enjoyed this series. I have created two lapbook journals myself. Thanks for sharing all your tips and tricks. I look forward to your next video.
thank you.fantastic job.love it.
I enjoy watching your video's Mike. Did I notice a Tardis in the background?
Love the papers you have used to cover the flip pages. Great idea.
I just love watching you work. It’s so relaxing and entertaining. Your lap book has turned out amazing! I love it.
Love this , your instructions were very clear, I can give it a go now, thanks 🇦🇺👍🏻😉
Thank you. I love my lap book!
Great series; was so inspired, I made one! Thanks for sharing!
I'm so pleased you did! Thank you XO
Thank you for sharing the process for how to make this book. I really appreciate & Love all your videos you are very talented and I look forward to seeing what you make in the future. Thank you
Awesome, can’t wait to get started!
Enjoyed this series Mike TFS your talent
Fabulous, Mike. Great series!
Loved watching how you have built the book up in three stages. I am thinking about making a Christmas planner type one. Thanks Mike. X
Very cool, thanks for sharing!!!
I just found ur site and I love it 😍I also subscribe and order a kit to do the lap book Can’t wait to do it !! Great tutorial!
I am brand new to journaling and you tube. How do you order Mike's kit?
I love this project! I’m definitely going to try one!
Beautiful book thank you
This was such a great project. I really loved it.
Thank you... This was wonderful...
I love your lap books. You give great instructions. I apparently missed the explanation of the tape on your glass mat before, thanks I thought that was reason but glad to know.
Hi Mike to help ease your frustration paint a couple of squares of gesso where the lights reflect 😊
I just found you! Amazing work! And terrific papers you use in this book!
Ace video, Mike. You do make it look easy! So far I've cut my card for the bas and managed to kick my colour printer into submission to get the digi downloads printed up...now I just need a shove up the bum to actually start putting it together lol.
Bejay xx
Loving this. It's exactly my style and that makes it easier to concentrate on technique. Have you used magnets in a Lapbook? I'm having problems with them. I LOVE the papers you used to cover your fold out. Where did you get them? What brand are they?
Ive often wondered why there was masking tape on your mat, thought it was broken... very ingenious on your part
Great stuff 👍🏼 I just wondered why it is called a lap book though? 🌹
Really enjoyed this series Mike and your lapbooks look great. I have one started, but have gone a little smaller 6 x 4. I felt your irritation with the collall lid lol. Looking forward to your junk journal. Will you be doing that as a series? Thank you as always for sharing your creations :)
Great flip-out share! I realize this video is a couple of years old and you may now see my question... but is masking tape strong enough to hold the flip-out for a long period of time? Thanks for sharing, from a newbie and a new subscriber!
there is also medical paper tape .....not the reinforced medical tape but its a thin medical paper tape which is very strong and can be found in the dollar tree store in the USA. not sure if UK has an equivalent tho
Very nice Mike. tfs. =^^=
very nice. I'm wondering if I could do this with cloth tape instead of masking tape
I really enjoyed your technique. How durable is this tape idea?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😊
I just found your site.. the lapbook looks good so far.. I'm making one right now,, my first.. so I'll see how it goes. I've heard a lot about PVA glue. Do you know if it is the same as Elmer's glue? Thank you.
Not 100% maybe a look at the ingredients label will tell you what the active ingredients of Elmer’s are.
By the way, I am almost finished my 6 x 9 in. lapbook. My traveler's style notebooks are done, ready to attach to the lapbook once I finish adding the foldout pages.
I am your biggest fan , love everything you create ,my question for you is why is it called a lap book.
Ha! I'm not the only one then Donna! I would also like to know where the moniker came from. I've only recently found this channel, does Mike answer questions in comments?
Sue Werner sometimes not always
Hi Mike, love these journals you are making. But it does worry me that I see so many people on RUclips using masking tape. As an older artist I’ve seen what happens to masking tape after 30 or so years. It becomes fragile, loses all adhesive properties and what’s worse, it leaves brown stains on paper. Thirty years isn’t as long as you think! I’m thinking tyvex with glue might be a better choice.
Yes I understand the differences, however, I’m not creating museum grade or heirloom pieces. I’m showing how I make them for my personal use. Most people will substitute stronger more longer lasting materials if they want to create their own hand me down projects to leave to future generations.
I have low-tack glue. Can I use it like the glue you used to glue down the decorative papers? Sadly I was using a glue stick on this project and it's all gone.
I'm part way through my first one. I'm having problems where I used washi tape on pages that bend both ways as it doesn't have enough stick.
Most Washi tape that I've used isn't very tacky. You can make your Washi tape more permanent by using some gel medium, glue, etc. to stick it down. Matte gel medium is my favorite. I've done that with various journals and the tape has stayed glued for several years.
I have the same problem, the masking tape does not hold the pages in. Did you all end up gluing it in? Maybe mike has some magic super strong masking tape???? 😜
My masking tape is holding up but the washi tape isn't even with glue. I think it's a width problem that there simply isn't enough in contact with the page to hold esp when the pages are moving. Mike's tape was wide. Anyway isn't all a learning curve!
By the way, I glued pockets to my book using glue dots. I found one side or both would come loose if I put too many pages into the pockets.
Why do you put tape on your glass mat?
To stop the glare reflection from my lights above my workstation.
Ahh ok. Thought it was some sort of measurement or blocking a trademark lol ,
Was it integrity? Or was it OCD that caused you to break out the ruler to determine whether you were correct about your measurements??? The world may never know 🤣😂🤣❤❤❤🥰😘💋
Tutorial for the lapbook
This guy has some very sexy hands, for a guy......oh yeah very informative thank u
