Another fabulous process video, Laurie. I'm new to crafting and learned lots already from you. It's already June 2018, so just know that your teachings are timeless! 💗
Hi Sue :-) Thank you very much. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I was thinking about these little albums just the other day and thought I wouldn't mind re-visiting them soon. Then this comment pops up on that video. Must be meant to be. lol Thanks again. :-)
I will be honest. When I started watching and you had the original base and cut that one part off, I thought nope this isn’t what I want to do, it’s not going to be all that great. Well, shame on me. This morning I continued watching and before I knew it I was saying to myself this is Perfect. I absolutely luv it, luv how you went back and forth deciding what would or would not work. Thank you so much for sharing with us, and yes I did subscribe. Can’t wait to watch another one of your lessons.
This is just beautiful. I love your color choices and how you juxtaposed all the different pieces to give it that really perfect look. Thanks for all the great design ideas!
Loved this one also Laurie!!! Both of these albums are done quickly. That's right up my alley.....instant gratification!! As always, thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you Denise. Yes, they can go even quicker if you aren't jabbering like me. lol I love something I can see quick results with too. :-) You are very welcome. :-)
You make it so easy to follow. Thank you so much !! My grand daughter and I both made one of your mini albums this morning and it was easy enough for her to follow along as well. She is 12. Will be making some of these 6x6's soon !!
Thank you! :-) I'm so glad you found it easy to follow and I am so happy to hear you made some mini albums with your granddaughter. That's so sweet and wonderful memory making with her. Have fun making the 6 x 6's too. :-) Thanks again. :-)
It's 5:30 a.m. and I just watched this video as I drank some coffee. I would have put the flower where you ended up putting it, I like distressing too and I look forward to seeing your crafting room now and the new one when you re-do or move to another room. I enjoyed this video. I see that you were using new papers and things but this would be a great project also to do using leftover bits and parts. Lovely little album and the itti bitti one too..
Very pretty album. I love the paper color choices. I was in total agreement with down. I'm glad you're doing the journaling by 5. I'm almost through with mine. It's been fun to do.
Thank you Carol. :-) I am looking forward to the Journaling by 5. I am not sure if I will film or not. I haven't decided. So many people are doing it no one may want to see another one. lol
Thanks Peggy. :-) I am sure your friend will love what you made them and I do hope they get well soon. Thank you for watching and I appreciate the comment. :-)
The blue flower was a good choice. I enjoy your videos, I like how you explain what you're doing and how you talk yourself into or out of what you are doing. I loved both projects. Also you said you like November, my birthday is in November.
Thanks so much Mary Ann. :-) I'ms so glad you enjoy them. Oh yes..I love November. I love the weather and my birthday is in November too. :-) Thank you for watching. :-)
November is my favorite month too. November 9th is my birthday and I totally LOVE fall. I am definitely going to make a few of these albums. I have some really nice Graphic 45 card stock and I think my friends would really like these as a gift. They love Graphic 45 as well.
Isn't November the best? :-) It's feeling like Fall here already in the mornings. I love it. I'm so glad you will make some. They are really cute and great little gifts. :-) Thanks Yvonne. Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. :-)
Very pretty! It was fun to watch you make it. I'm glad to hear you're going to do the Journaling by 5 project. I'm anxious to see how you will do it differently. I thought about doing it, but not doing the time limit on step 1, just to dry the paint before moving to the next page.
Thank you Lori. :-) Well...I thought I was going to do it differently but in order to follow the "rules" I will probably do it the way it was intended. I was going to do it in the form of free pages, icads, rcads and other types of backgrounds but that is being done as a separate challenge. I will still give it a go though.
Beautiful, Laurie. I was very inspired by your little mini albums so am in the process of making one of those. Now I want to make one of these too! I just love the papers you chose, and down with the flower! Good choices:)
Those are great papers, and I love these little journals. Thank you for sharing how you make them. =) Those are cool cutting dies too. =) *LOL!* "Just because is a good reason to do stuff. ;) Yeah, decisions, decisions... =) I agreed with you, on the placement of the flower, on the cover. =) And I love the butterfly. =) the button is cool, too. =)
I really like it, love the colors but the glitter butterfly is odd but the cover is beautiful. I love the paper with the Erupean thing is pretty. I knew u will take the 'perfect " page that page got me crazy every time you pass it just like the roses ones.
Thank you for replying and I ordered the die need a lot more practice with making mini. scrapbooks but I will get it Newbie to the crafting world lol:)
+Cheryl Johnson You are very welcome. I am glad you were able to get the die. :-) Well welcome to the world of crafting. Now that you are in it you can never get out. lol Have fun and just remember to enjoy the journey. We are always learning. :-)
Thank you Victor. I hope you do make one. :-) You are welcome. Yes, I have a lot of paper. I have been collecting it a long time. I used to live close to a very big scrapbook store that had a separate store just for clearance items. I got a lot of things over the years that way.
Thank you, this is where I should of started from first instead of trying to learn how to make a mini scrapbook :) the die cutout with heart where can I get one???? Again Thank you :)
+Cheryl Johnson Hi Cheryl. You are very welcome. I am glad you enjoyed it. The die I used is one by Sizzix. It's an older die so I don't know if they make it anymore. I did a search for you though and found one on eBay. I will post a link here to it so you can see what it looks like. I think the die is called "Our Baby". It's a frame but the words "Our Baby" are not on it. You have to add that. I just wanted the shapes. :-) . www.ebay.com/itm/like/320991766806?ul_noapp=true&chn=ps&lpid=82
Hi Robin. Thank you very much. :-) This video is pretty old so if you could tell me which part of the video you are referring to I'll be happy to see if I can find out that info for you. :-)
you said the die was called"our baby" a frame with a heart at the top of it with a completely usable and beguiling centerpiece. you said you found it on sale somewhere and had never used it til this project. very cute!
@@robindebolt1383 Hey Robin...Ohhhh yes. I remember now. I went and checked my die and it's made by Sizzix. It's called "Sizzix BigZ Die Frame with Heart". I think it's a retired die but search on Amazon, Etsy, Ebay etc. and you might be able to find it. I hope this helps. :-)
You are so welcome Elaine. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I honestly don't remember the weight of the paper. This video is a few years old so I have no idea. It's not super light because it's double sided paper but it's not as heavy as watercolor paper. I would just use whatever makes you happy and if it's double sided it should be just fine. Thanks for watching. :-)
l bought some today 250gsm double sided only 2.99 . l ended up using thin paper and making it stronger but using thicker card stock as l had mucked it up;. l also made a extra flap. x
Hi Shirley. I would love to see your album!!! :-) There are a few ways you can try to share it with me. You can email me a photo. My email is on the "About" page of my RUclips Channel. If you use Facebook or Instagram you can post your photo and tag me so that I am able to see it. :-) Both links are on the "About" page as well. :-)
Hey :-) It's been a while since I made this video but I am pretty sure everyone agreed with you on the flower down on the bottom too. :-) Thanks so much for watching. :-) Have a great day. :-)

You are so welcome Melissa! I'm so glad you were inspired. Thank you! :-)
I just had a fun two hours making one of these, yesterday I made the mini books so I've had some great inspiration from your videos, thank you 👍🏻
Awesome!!!! I'm so glad you made some and enjoyed it. Thank you for telling me. :-) I'm so glad you were inspired. :-)

Thanks for sharing. I really like the colors of papers you used. You have inspired me to create some myself for gifts.
+Laura Murphy Hi Laura. :-) You are very welcome. I am happy you were inspired. That makes me sooooo happy!!!
Agreed with you, you have an excellent eye for composition and color
Thank you Rebecca :-) Thank you for watching,
This is just so pretty. I love those colors too. I voted for the flower to be low just like you put it. :) Once again Im inspired! :)
Thank you Paulette. :-) Woo hoo....another check in the "flower placed low" column. lol I'm so glad you feel inspired. That makes me happy. :-)

Hi Linda. :-) Oh yes...a great project for scraps. Thanks so much for watching and commenting...especially at 5:30 a.m. lol
I did not know you could make a 6x6 mini album. And you are right. Some of us need to see you cut out the paper and measure it. Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome Eileen :-) Thank you for watching, :-)
SUCH LOVELY IDEAS,THANKS FOR SHARING-HAVE A BLESSED DAY.
Thank you Karen. :-)

Thank you Carol. :-) Oh good...I will go look for them in the group.
I love this project!!! I'm bad about not finishing them so maybe this is one I can handle!!! Lol!!! Thank you!
Thank you Debbie :-) Oh gosh, I am bad about not finishing too. lol I hope you gave it a try. :-) You are so welcome. :-)
I am so glad you heard me telling you where to put that flower! I love the papers you chose.

the button is cool, too. =)
Very nice! I would have put the flower in the upper corner due to habit, so I'm glad that you chose the lower corner. TFS!
Thank you Lynne. :-) It seems there is about an even split on the choice of where to put the flower. lol
Wonderful project ! Thanks for sharing 😘
