- Hi Guys, here is a video showing how I made one of my notebooks. I hope you will agree that it goes a little beyond just a plain old notebook? Enjoy and have a great craft day, Amanda :-)

I'm enjoying this again after seeing it all those years ago. You know, I have never seen anyone yet who has realized that there is a little center mark on the Cinch. All you have to do is fold your paper in half and make a tiny crease or pencil mark and put it at that center mark on the Cinch. Then the holes will always be evenly spaced from the sides. Thanks again for all your wonderful videos!😘
Thank you and thank you for the tip, i will check that out next time I use the machine xx
I had the same thought. I'm a fairly new user, but I always fold some scrap of the same size in half and use that with the centre line.
Hi agian Sweetie Pie...
LUV LUV LUV it...
I have 2 bind it alls (the blue and the pink one) ~~ and I was holding off purchasing the cinch...I couldn't figure out why I would need it...NOW I KNOW...you can not add the eyelets with the rectangle holes...so now I guess my next toy might be the cinch...lol...lol...
Thank you so much for sharing this fun journal book...perfect mother's day gift...
Have a fun fun fun spring day...ir is it snowing by you...

Very nice.I want to make a book now ! I need to save up to buy the Cinch !
Glad to have been some help, and I dfinately think the cinch is a 'cinch' to use :-)) It seems to me from what I read much simpler to work out sizes than on the BIA. The crop a dile is one of those tools that you find you dont think you will use and then do. I even used mine to punch an extra hole on a leather handbag strap! lol TFW x
Thank you for the video. I want to see the cinch in real world application. I just love the book. Beautiful.
what a great video! i will be doing some of these as end of year teacher gifts. thank you for the detailed and thorough explanations.
Thanks for this video. I also made an album with 2 different size paper and went through the same problem, but it worked out okay and I learned alot. I like the way you suggested using the paper folded in half to make it pages. It sure makes it more easier. Love your videos.
Thats what I love about the cinch that it is easy to make these adjustments. Not sure i made it sound easy as it is hard to put into words but anyway hopefully it made enought sense for everyone. I am glad you enjoyed and thanks for watching ;-)
that was so nice and so much work and now we know why note books are so expensive.. lots of work, materials and alot of thought goes into it..
Thank you - glad you enjoyed. It was nice for me actually to see your comment as I had forgotten about this project as it was a while ago now and it made me think I must do something with my cinch again :-)
gorgeous! I was going to get a bind it all but my husband talked me into the cinch. I'm so happy he did! And I'm glad you showed using the eyelets. I keep tossing around getting a crop dile, I keep thinking I won't use it, but now i'm sure I would! :)
Absolutely beautiful!!! I've been on the fence about ordering a Cinch, but after watching your video I'm convinced I need one!!
+Lisa “Boo” MacDonald It is so easy to use which is a blessing cos Im not really into album making etc so it needed to be foolproof and it is :-)
thank you, yes it looked even nicer in life as the red paper at the top had a very subtle pattern on it which the camera did not pick up. I am getting some photography lights so am hoping that will improve the videos. :-)
This was great - I learned alot! Your friend should really appreciate the notebook.
Lovely ♥ With the paper, roses and the eyelets :)
Thank you :-)
She did, she is always very enthusiatic about my stuff which is good for the ego! lol! And I am glad you enjoyed it, I did worry it was so long but I didnt want to cut any more out as I thought that people would like to see as much of the procedure as possible, hopefully I wass right? TFW :-)
Great vid - a little tip for you, if you use the sticker making cartridge without the cross shaped holder you don't get that wastage at the beginning of each use. x
I love the cinch really easy to use :-)
Glad you liked it hun, and i didnt know that about the bind it all, that must be so annoying. I got the cinch as it just seemed so simple to me compared to the BIA? As for snow, nope we havent had any and has been really sunny until yesterday when it blew a gale and rained cats and dogs! Mind you i am pretty much as far south as you can get apart from devon cornwall as we are in the newforest just above bournemouth so it tends to be milder. TFW :-)
hi amanda! do you happen to know what size the eyelets you used were? ive been trying to do the same thing but i cant find the right eyelets.
Thank you for the tip. I dont actually use it very often i normally just use my tape pen but it was useful for a change :-)
Glad you enjoyed and what a nice idea for the teachers - and once you get the dimensions sorted on one they will put together real quick. Post some photos of them on my facebook page would love to see. hugs and tfw ;-)
Can someone please tell me, what is the newest version of the Cinch, when I do a search I see yellow ones, pink ones, blue ones, and black and white ones....I went to the we r memory keepers website and typed Cinch binding machine in the search box and all that came up was accessories for the machine and not the machine itself. I looked on the Michaels site and couldn't find one, is this a discontinued item? Just to let you know, I am asking this question on other RUclips sites in hopes of someone answering me. Thanks
I am so sorry I know this is really late in a reply but believe it or not this only just showed up! Someone else left a comment on this video and for some reason it made this one pop up too - most odd. Anyway if it is not too late I believe these are all the same machine just produced in different colours. Yes they were released at different times and some are colours exclusive say to a craft shopping channel. But I think time wise, although machine wise again I believe they are the same, the We r memory keepers blue is the latest just because i think they are consolidating all their things into company colours. Hope that helps if its not miles too late :-)
Hiya for some reason your comment has only just come through to me which is a bit weird after 9 months, I punched the holes on the cinch and I looked up on google and it seems that the cinch makes holes for a 1/4inch eyelets. I did not know specifically as i just used from my stash but as this seems to be the size of hole for the cinch I presume this is what they are. Hope that helps and so sorry for the delay, have no idea what happened :-)
I've purchased the square holes Cinch but now starting to regret a bit. I won't be able to use eyelets 😣
@@thisismetime me too! Might have to buy another one :)
Hello from South Africa 💕
Thank you for the tutorial! I am a new subscriber, can't wait to see more of your videos 🤩. Did you paint the edges white before you put on the red chalk?
welcome to my channel and thank you for commenting. This project was a long time ago but as far as I recall I just inked straight onto the edges with the red ink no painting first. I think i would be too impatient lol, you might not have it on this video, but on all the newer videos they have a link in the para below the video to the blog post on my website that goes with whichever video you are watching. The great thing is on the blog post you will have loads of photos - I always take tonnes, and links to the products used. I have literally only a month ago completely redone my website and there are new features on it like video library etc so worth a visit. It's www.lollilulucrafts.com Thx again for watching, amanda xx
@@lollilulucrafts awesome thank you for your reply! I will definitely have a look tonight! Can't wait!!!!!!
Hanlie Taljaard My pleasure, and thanks so much for visiting my channel. I hope you become a subscriber on here and my website but either way welcome. Oh and by the way you still have a couple of hours to have a vote, here on RUclips on my channel page under the community tab, on the poll asking which video you would like me to post next and there are three options to choose from. Love and hugs, Amanda
Nice) What is the sparkles at the end of the video? Is this ice stickles? What colour?
Want too)
I had to go back and watch as this was 4 years ago now - wow anyway I caught that I said it was Stickles and I would imagine that it would be the Crystal but I didnt hear that but just judging by how it looks xx
+Lolli Lulu Crafts thanks)
Why did she ink the edges if she covering them up?
Hiya, I explain at about 2.48 why I decided to ink the edges - it was such a long time ago I had to check back to what I had actually done on this project, but basically it was all explained there but also I would think now in hindsight that it is a good thing to do so that when you smooth the edges with your sand paper or even distress them with a distress tool that if the paper is slightly rubbed back further than anticipated that you have the colour there instead of the horrid brown. The corners in particular are susceptible to being worn a bit more and actually look quite good if you do so deliberately. So it also gives me the opportunity to change my mind later and do distress the edges if I wanted. But the reasons on this project are I think all explained at the time mentioned above - I just dipped in to see what I had done and literally landed on that spot so it may be there is more said but this at least is a start. I do tend to try and explain my reasons if I think of it xx
Wow
I’ve watch other video for the cinch and are not as long as yours. I think you did way too much measuring.
Joyceteen Holmes oh dear sorry you think that. But there was a reason, I wanted the paper to be slightly smaller than the outer board so I needed to ensure that not only were the holes even but that when put inside the outer boards that they matched up. I also wanted to fully explain how I worked it out rather than just saying I punched the paper end of. If I don’t explain my workings out then if someone wants to make the same but maybe a different size then they wouldn’t know how to work it out on their own. I always like, with a tool that is new to my channel, to explain it fully so sorry you found it too long but hope you will enjoy the more current videos of mine which have moved on a lot from this one 😀
I think she did a great job!
