The Picking Garden Folio

 A behind the scenes look at the making of The Picking Garden Folio. 

Inspire & create.

To make this folio I first made a template for the base. 

To cut the base I used 2 12 x12 scrapbook paper pad covers as these are cardboard. 

Once the base was cut I needed a large sheet of paper to stick it to so I used a sheet of newspaper from a 1955 newspaper! (Gotta love vintage paper).

Once the base was done it was time to cut out the patterned paper panels using a template I had made. 

Now the real fun begins! Creating the pockets and ephemera to go inside! 

This sweet folio was a super fun project to make. 

Journal Cards & Tags

 It's been a lovely week crafting and creating journal cards & tags using some beautiful papers and vintage images. 

Vintage Cat Junk Journal

 Hello crafters!

It was such a joy putting this vintage cat journal together. 

Rather than stitching the pages in like I normally do I thought I'd try something different and use book rings. I'm very happy with the overall result. 

Hope this gives you all some inspiration to get creating.

Notebook Folio

 Hi crafters

Today I have made a cute wee 'notebook folio' using a patterned piece of A4 card. 

This folio was so simple and fun to make. 

I've added some notebook pages to the inside and a pocket containing some ephemera. 

To make this folio simply choose a piece of A4 card and score two fold lines at your desired width. 

For the pocket I made a template and cut from patterned card.
