File Folder Photo Book/Mini Album

Hi Crafters!

I love looking at YouTube videos to find inspiration for my craft projects, there are some very talented ladies on there. A really easy project I saw recently was a little mini album that was made from Manilla folders. So, as I had some Kraft folders laying around I thought I'd try this...you could also use free papers from a magazine to cover the pages, which is a great way to use those papers that are hanging around in your stash.

You can find tutorials to make the file folder albums on YouTube from Dawns Inspirations and The Paper Addiction.

This is what I made, it has a sewing theme.

Happy New Year & Update

Happy New Year Friends!

I thought it was about time I did an update on my blog, before it disappeared in to cyberspace for ever!
Last year was so busy, as I started renting a shelf space in a local gift shop, to sell my crafts. I also opened an online shop on wowthankyou, ( there is a link in the right hand bar if you'd like to check it out). Sales are trickling in slowly, if I keep up with social media promotion... that does help I think!

I'm hoping to really go for it this year with getting more products in both outlets. So, I'll try to keep you updated with all that.

I've added a few photos below of projects I worked on last year.

Thanks for taking the time to read my blog, I really appreciate it, please leave a comment if you wish.
