Can you do a a flip pocket 12x12 directly onto a 12x12 pocket protector without the fuse tool sealing all the way through? I wanted to do a 12x12 scrapbbook page and the flip the top page up to revel a treasure chest underneath. How would you do that? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

@MaryGilles 6 жыл бұрын
You could fuse along one of the vertical sides for sure, but a page that big might need some reinforcement with washi or stitching. Might be a lot easier to buy these: www.joann.com/memory-book-12inx12in-panoramic-fold-out-page-protectors-6pk/2045086.html

Yes, I am doing 9x12 with a lot of different sized page protectors! I love it so much already, I have a video on my plans for 2018 from a couple weeks back. I definitely get that feeling from my 2017 album; lots of the same every week. I am not pressuring myself to do it at any sort of frequency this year, it's just going to be as I feel like it, and I think it will be more fun this way.

I started project life in 2017 and I am amazed at how much stuff I have accumulated! I will be working from my stash this year and have 2 sub of course Kelly Purkey and the new Ali Edwards kit. I hope I can stick to only these. Love your videos! Can't wait to see what you do this year with your new format I will stick to 6x12 I have an extra album so I might as well use it.

Thank you! It is really crazy how much comes in a monthly kit: more than a month's worth of supplies. And of course I bought plenty of things outside of that last year. I am going to try to focus on using more of my Kelly Purkey cards this year because I love them and don't use them enough!

Love this spread! Suggestion for removing the liner from red line tape: I use a pokey tool or a blade to remove the liner. Heck, you can probably even use the tip of your tweezers. I don't have long nails, so a tool definitely helps me with this. I like a sped up video myself. Even if a video is in real time, I tend to change the speed to 1.25x or 1.5x.

Thanks again! I got most of my page protectors at Tuesday Morning. It's a store similar to TJ Maxx or Marshalls in that they get closeout stuff, but they have a craft section. They are such a great deal there! I just recommend calling the store first to see if they have them in, because they go quick. A lot of times they can tell you what days they get their shipments in. I've also bought some off JoAnn.com if they are having a good sale, or use the JoAnn 50% off an item coupon to buy them in store. It's definitely not necessary to subscribe to a monthly kit, and you do usually end up with more stuff than you need, but it does help give you ideas for your layouts.

@ssd1453 7 жыл бұрын
I haven't heard of that store but I do have a Michaels not too far from where we live. You are so right about the monthly kits- they end up being wasteful. They're so pretty though! I used to subscribe to the studio calico kits but fell so far behind that I had to cancel my subscription. I am caught up as far as June 2016 as of now. I don't think I will do PL for 2017 and will start from Jan 2018! Thanks for your suggestions! xoxo
@MaryGilles
@MaryGilles 7 жыл бұрын
Michaels has the 50% off coupons too! That makes sense about skipping a year if it's too much. I used to be subscribed to studio calico but wasn't happy with what you get for the price. Also all the kits end up on sale about 6 months after they come out, so I have picked up a few then. I wouldn't even be subscribed to a monthly kit, but I just do it for the exclusive stamp set!

I got them at Tuesday Morning. I call to see if they have page protectors before I go because they always go fast. I did a quick google search and they don't seem to make them anymore. So annoying! Maybe they will pop up on Ebay or Etsy at some point.

I totally concur with you about white ink when it comes to stamping. I have both the Staz-on and Brilliance White ink pads, and no matter if it's paper or photo I always have to stamp more than once for the design to come out clear. I also really hate the fact that they have a spongy type of pad. I plan to get the Tim Holtz/Ranger version because I remember him saying in one of his demos that he can't stand those types of pads either and made sure his ink pads have a raised felt pad.

The 9x12 album is fun to use and I love how it doesn't stick out too much when it's on my bookcase. I'll be using a 6x12 album for 2018 which will be challenging since there's not a lot of variety of page protectors compared to 9x12 and 12x12. Looking forward to your 2018 layouts!
