Come see Part 3 of my tutorial using Whispering Way by 49 & Market, a Country Craft Creations Design Team Project!


 You are going to love this!!!  Come and see how we make the back of Page 3 and Page 4!  I am so excited about how this is coming along...I hope you are too!

We are doing it in parts because I think that it will be better and make more sense than one long tutorial. Some of the pages will be more interactive than others, and we will be doing some fun interactions. Below is the cut list for the pages we’re focusing on today. I have started a Playlist for this album so that we can have all of the tutorials for this series in one place (as I am anticipating quite a few of them). Please see this playlist for all of the videos for this tutorial. This playlist will also contain the haul video I did for this paper collection. That playlist can be found here, https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVXuAIShaVSVnC32oiY-LiFkmUBcC7acI Thanks for watching, and have a crafty day!! CUT GUIDE: The measurements below are for the cardstock. The measurements for the patterned papers will be given in the tutorial. Back Page 3, Corner Fold Pop Out 1 - 9 x 11 1/2 Front Page 4, Explosion Page 1 - 5 1/4 x 7 1/2 1 - 7 x 7 Back Page 4, Photo Mat Page Mat, 1 - 4 1/2 x 3 1/2 Photo mat, 4 1/4 x 3 1/4

The entire Whispering Ways collection is here, I received 2 each of the patterned and solid papers, as well as the rub on's. Granny's Buttons in Powder Blue. Ribbon/Seam Binding/Jute: I received 2 yards each of the following... Seam binding, in Yellow and Light Blue Jute, in ivory Ribbon, 1 1/2" Luster in Sage Green Flowers, I received Uniquely Creative Chantilly Flowers I also received 2 sheets of Scor Tape sheets, 8 1/2 x 11 and 2 sheets of heavy weight cardstock I will be using the white Artisan cardstock that came in my design team package as well. While you are at the store, don't forget your adhesives, cardstock, and chipboard...these are what I love to use: Artisan Cardstock Art Glitter Glue Scor Tape Basic Chipboard, Heavy and light weight, in many sizes Seam Binding by the roll
