Mini Hybrid Journal Part 4 ~ Construction of Mini Folio # 2

Leave a comment

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Hello, wonderful readers! This is the 4th video in the series and today I am taking the next step in creating the Mini Hybrid Journal by constructing the second of the 2 folios that will make up the ‘hybrid’ part of the journal. I have put a link to the first folio below as well as a downloadable recipe containing all the measurements and scoring for each piece of the folio.

What is a Hybrid Journal – that basically means it has a couple of folios and then some regular pages in the middle. I am also making my first Medori-style feature to hold those middle pages together! There will be a total of 9 posts and videos – I hope that you will follow along with me as I work my way thru!

2026 Flip Over Desk Calendar ~ September

Leave a comment

Welcome to my Corner of the World

For the last 5 – 6 years I have designed and enjoyed making my flip over desk calendar for the ladies who came to my classes.  As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. Like last year, I recognize not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month and included a video to show how I went about making the card.

So today I share, Autumn Toadstools – which I think would make a great masculine card!

Check out the video to find out how many pockets and tucks I managed to squeeze in!! 🙂
