Following 😊 My dear, your kids sound awesome. Playing, helping you out…just being kiddos ❤ They weren’t loud or bothersome at all but I’m a mama so I get it 👍🏻 I actually love to hear the laughter and bantering that they do 😅 I’m living and impressed with this little book. I’ll be back with supplies in hand to make one with you 👍🏻💕 Have a wonderful day.

I love how you attached the extra to make less paper waste. Genius.

[@kathyekblad596]

Thank you so much Caroline! I found your video as I am starting to make folios. I made a small one for my nephew and his wife for some of their Norway photos and am excited to try and make yours. I am now a subscriber.

You are the real MVP! I have throughly enjoyed your tutorial. You are the only person I've seen that uses wet glue to assemble your work. I use wet glue and I love it but so many creators make wet glue seem like it's wrong to use it for assembly. The fact that you wiped the glue off with your finger.....made me subscribe lol 😆 you are a REAL ONE! Very detailed and not to wordy just to the point. And you shared a way to make a beautiful album without having to buy the entire collection and still have a beautiful handmade work of art. Thank you so much. I love making albums but I don't have a lot of money so I work with what I habe and you've shown that it's possible to do.

The lost footage was a bonus opportunity for us to see even more beautiful paper!! I enjoyed every minute of this video!

[@Scatterbrain47]

Awesome Job!!! I just ordered myself a corner mitering tool!!! So excited, can't wait to get it.

[@chowardmathis]

First time finding your channel. I’m a long time CCC follower and was at the Carnival retreat but I don’t think we met. Just wanted to say, great job on the tutorial. I’ll be watching more of your stuff.

[@lequitahicks9076]

Wet glue also stiffens the paper, which I like. I don't always have 110lb paper so the wet glue (or glue stick in conjunction with the wet glue) stiffens my paper and makes it more durable.

[@normavega3473]

I love it. It’s easy and beautiful. I will be making a few for my family. You are awesome. Thank you so much

[@veaniecar3507]

wow this is such a wonderful little album, such a great tutorial.

[@snwbnnyinoz]

Beautiful, I will make one for my Mum for Mother’s Day

[@paulafuller1002]

I thoroughly enjoyed the tutorial AND the album design. It was fun to follow along and make my own. A lot of stopping and rewinding the video trying to keep up, but lots of fun and great instruction. Loved it all!!!!

[@winnieallison8617]

I love this album. It is such a good size and very pretty. You are a good teacher, clear and concise. Thanks for the inspiration. x

[@lorikapiczowski1536]

I absolutely love this album. I made one today and it turned out great, thanks to your easy to follow instructions. I think I've opened and closed the pop-up page 50 times. I just love it. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

[@scrapbooksandmemories]

Your twist & pop is so cute! Love the tip about cutting the tip of mechanism & thicker magnet with it.

[@debraleblanc6122]

I will be referring to this tutorial often. I learned SO much. This album required alot of work on your behalf, and I appreciate having access to it. Thank you!

[@SoulfulXprssion]

What a great tutorial- I will definitely be following your channel and blog.‼️😊

[@thehouseofjane]

This is such a detailed tutorial...thank you! I never made one so this will probably take me awhile to do this, but now I have your instructions...perfecto! TFS, Lisa

[@theresakassa4889]

Absolutely love this project! You have made the Twist-n-pop so easy for me!! Your a great teacher💜

[@oricle81]

Great tutorial, Caroline! And I love the printable cutting guide! Thanks for sharing and can't wait to make it!
