☀️Good morning! I have a walk through/talk through tutorial on a 6x6 version of my recent Nature’s Haven Trifold Folio Album❤️
📖The only difference in making this album are measurements and the waterfall has fewer pages. It is made/constructed exactly as the original 6x8 version, so please see the original tutorial for construction. The measurements are discussed in the video and in a cut guide in the video’s description
💕All links for the original album are in this version’s video description.
👻I used “Luna” by Prima👻…I had purchased this from Country Craft Creations a couple years ago. Since it was out (as I had used some for Kim’s file box tutorial from the 🤠Rodeo Roundup) I thought I’d smash it, and I did! This would look amazing with any collection!
Hello! Here it is, the tutorial for my Country Craft Creations July design team project using 49 & Market's Nature's Haven collection. This is a gorgeous album that has a few fun new surprises. It is 6 x 8 with a 2" and a 1" spine. It also has no pages attached to the spines. All of the interactions are on the covers themselves. I think you will like it. As always, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask, I am always happy to help. Have fun and stay crafty, my friends!
There is a lot of information in the tutorials video description, including a cut guide for the chipboard and cardstock, and also links to all of the items I received in my design team package, so please check it out.
Videos for this design team package:
In the walk through video I go though all of the decoration and how I cut the frames to make photo corners, please do check it out if you haven't seen it.
I used Natural Artisan Cardstock from my Country Craft Creations stash for this project, about 16 sheets of 12 x 12. I also used two large Basic Grey Magnets. Links for those items are also in the tutorial video's description box.

Good morning! I just wanted to share some goodness with you today. I received the Vintage Stamps Collection from Your Creative Studio, and I think you will love it. Above is a video with a quick walk through of the items in the box...and there are a ton of them!
Then I made a fun folio using some of the items that I just love! I combined the items with a Tim Holtz folio and it is just too cute. Come and see!
Click on the videos and you will go to the Youtube videos. In the video's description is more information and links to Your Creative Studio so you can check it out for yourself! The boxes are amazing!
I had an idea...I had made a prototype for my Season to Celebrate project folio (that I ended up not using) and decided to use it. In this video I will share how to make that, how I made the flowers, and share a 12 x 12 layout that I did with my Patchwork Paper Technique. ENJOY! At the end I will share what I did with the folio I created in this video using Country Craft Creations "Blossom in Springtime" paper! The folio is 5 1/4 x 7 1/4 with a 1/2" spine.
There's lots of info, so here we go...

I recently made a couple of projects you have to see. This first one is by Nicole of MadeFromScrap one YouTube and she did an amazing folio that I made twice. You have to see how these turned out, and then check out the link in the video description to see her quick and easy tutorial. You will love it!
This one is by Karolina of KarolinasKrafts, on Youtube. She did a tutorial of a 4 x 4 mini album that I adore. It came out too cute and I am just so happy with it. I'm keeping this one for myself to use as a 2025 journal of things I want to do in this year.
Good morning! I have a new tutorial for you. I decided to list all of my videos for this paper collection so that you can see all of the fun things I have done with it.
These are design team projects for Country Craft Creations, and I'm using the gorgeous collection by Graphic 45 called "Season to Celebrate". I hope you like them!
The first one is my latest project I just shared today. I used leftover paper and scraps to make these stunning tags that you can use on their own or add to the previous project I just made.
Below is the first project I made and it is a big one, and sooooooo wonderful. It is a yearly folio project with a box to store the folios. You can add your memories throughout the year!
The video below is a full walk through of the folio and box project I made.
I also put this link to the design team package haul video I did, just in case you want to see that too.
I have a list of the supplies I used. Please check out Country Craft Creations and get all of your supplies for this and more!

You have to see what I did! This is a fantastic folio I made using a paper collection I have been hoarding in my stash since 2012!
I purchased the folio and dies from my local scrapbook store, Cobblestone Creek Studios, and I know that you will love this! Thanks in advance for watching!

Here it is, thanks for being patient! I finally have made the tutorial for my Junk Portfolio. This is made from 4 grocery bags and it is loaded with pages and pockets and possibilities. The bags I used were 12” wide, 10 1/2 tall and the bottoms are 6 3/4.
I have used Tim Holtz papers for this version, along with a lot of fun ephemera and goodies that I have made in the past and kept for just the right project to use them with.
The full walk through of my first portfolio is here ...
Thanks for watching and I hope you have fun making one for yourself!!!
She wanted a Document Folder that would be big enough to hold large certificates and items for safekeeping, could be stored in a file cabinet and could also be pretty enough to be out on the coffee table to share with family.
The shopping haul video where I shared the prototype I made is here in case you missed it.
I came up with this design, and with the papers I purchased from Country Craft Creations I made this tutorial. In the video's description are a list of supplies from Country Craft Creations and a cut list for the cardstock. The patterned papers will be discussed in the video. Thanks for watching! The tutorial is here, https://youtu.be/tT-SzRAmzPE?si=xFA7j33XwojbtMrw
This is a fun one, and I hope you like it. I'm using the "Birthday" paper collection from Country Craft Creations, and it is just beautiful! I made this folio with the Artisan Cardstock (no chipboard needed). It is full of fun places to put pictures, and even pockets big enough to hold cards received. Below is a cut list for the cardstock (the patterned paper measurements are in the tutorial, so have a notepad handy), and a supply list for the items I received in my design team package for this project.
Have fun, and stay crafty!
I did a haul video for this design team package, and it is here.

This is a quick tutorial on how I made an ephemera folio to hold bits and pieces you want to save for future projects. I shared this in the Country Craft Creations Welcome Summer Retreat Facebook page, and was asked about a tutorial, so here it is. 😎 It's very simple, and free-form so you can really do whatever you want with it. I hope you enjoy this and make some for yourself. I’m using my last bits of the exclusive collection, Soar, by Country Craft Creations. Soar, and many other different and beautiful papers can be found at Country Craft Creations, https://countrycraftcreations.com
The measurements and scoring are in the video, and you only need 2 patterned papers at 8x8, and then scraps to make the pockets. That's it! Easy Peasy!

Thanks for watching, and remember to stay crafty, my friends!
My current design team package from Country Craft Creations is so amazing, I couldn't wait to play with it! I have Part 1 available. We will be making a folio, similar to how I did my pages in my Bountiful Blessings project.
Here is the first video. Part 2 will be available as soon as I can get it done.
In the video I show how to make the pieces for the pages. Each piece comes from a 12 x 12 piece of cardstock. The cover is two pieces of cardstock, and I also used light weight chipboard. So, since I go over how to cut all of this there is not a cut guide for this project. It is all in the video, and I show you how to cut, score and fold every piece.
You will need 10 sheets of Artisan (Kraft) cardstock, 2 sheets of light weight chipboard, a magnet and some seam binding for this piece. In the next tutorial I'll show you how to do some of the patterned papers, and share what I did with mine. Thanks so much for watching and I'll be back soon with the rest of the tutorial.

I created this because of a request from one of my YouTube viewers. Thanks to gcoop493 this project was born! Please come and check it out. I'm using the gorgeous papers "Love You Forever" by Country Craft Creations. A list below will tell you how to get your supplies to make this! I hope you like it as much as I do.
I know...another round up...LOL! This is a folio I created using products from a local scrapbook store, Cobblestone Creek, in Damascus, Oregon. If you are reading this and are local, please go check it out. It's super cute and she has all the things.
This is a flip flop folio that I made that I am EXTREMELY happy with. It is beautiful and full of things that I have been making...they fit perfect into this amazing piece.
Planning never stops...So here is what I'm up to this month.
And, last but certainly not least, my August design team package from Country Craft Creations. I'm using the exclusive collection called "Bon Voyage" and it is GORGEOUS!
I created a fun folio using this beautiful paper kit, "Bloom Where You're Planted" and the 49 & Market "Envelope Gatefold Flip Folio" kit that I purchased from Country Craft Creations. Please stop by my YouTube and check it out!
Hi all, and welcome back to my channel. Today I have a tutorial for a fun project. This started as a kit (that I have had in my stash since around 2005), I added some Graphic 45 papers (Place in Time from 2012 and Time to Flourish from 2014), and this is the result.
I altered the CD folios that came in the kit and altered the size and orientation of the box and made this project, which I will go over in the video. Then I had some interest from quite a few people about a tutorial. I recreated this project with Kraft cardstock and some chipboard. I hope you enjoy the tutorial.
I do not know if you can get these specific Graphic 45 papers, they are older collections. I do know that there is a newer calendar paper collection available. Check the Graphic 45 site or your local craft store.
I also know that Country Craft Creations has a wonderful collection called
“Remember the Time” that would be lovely with this project.
During the tutorial, from Country Craft Creations I used:
Kraft CardstockChipboard (Heavy weight and light weight)Art Glitter GlueSeam Binding
The basic cut list for ONE folio: Please note you will need to multiply these by the number of folios you want to make.
1 - 11 1/2 x 8 5/8
1 - 6 1/8 (-1/16) x 1 3/4
1 - 4 1/2 x 5 1/8
For the box:
Chipboard:
1 - 5 7/8 x 5 7/8 (Heavyweight). Please note that the bottom will depend on if you want to use the box feet or not, I discuss this in the video.
4 - 2 7/8 x 5 7/8 (Lightweight)
Cardstock:
1 - 6 x 6
2 - 7 x 6 1/2
2 - 6 x 6 1/2
Thanks for watching and have a great day!
Hi all, and welcome back to my Haunted Craft Room!
Today I have tutorial #3 using Carta Bella's "Hocus Pocus" paper collection. This is a design team project for Country Craft Creations, https://countrycraftcreations.com. I made this fun folio that features a tuck tab closure and three ways to use your Sizzix Essential Mini Album Die set by Lori Whitlock https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/sizzix-thinlits-dies
I hope you enjoy this tutorial. From the scraps I have leftover I have another surprise...but you have to wait until my next video!
Below are the cutting guides and the links for the products I used. I used some cardstock that coordinates with the paper collection for the album die pages, and the patterned paper as well. The cardstock listed below is Artisan Cardstock from Country Craft Creations, https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/artisan-cardstock. I used light weight chipboard for the cover, https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/chipboard-light-weight-12x12-sheet.
The paper collection, Hocus Pocus by Carta Bella is here, https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/chipboard-light-weight-12x12-sheet#/cd9f1be9-5b7d-494c-9001-d53b43632e20/fullscreen/autofilters=true&filter[brand][]=Carta+Bella&page=1&query=hocus+pocus&query_name=match_and&rpp=20
