Yes I love to see the finished art and the direction an how to put it together thank you so much I'm sure it seems so repetitive but I LOVE IT!!!!

[@kathyclementkathybydesign]

Thanks so much, Vickie! I think this one is still available in my Etsy shop. It's one of my favorites, and so much fun to make. We learn by repetition, so it's good to say/show things multiple times! Happy crafting!

Hi I just recently found you. I had tried to find you a few months ago because I saw something in a scrapbook store someone made. But they could not give any info other than the it was inspired by "Kathy By Design". Any how, glad I found ALL your wonderful videos. I have already spent most of my day watching you make beautiful projects. I did have a question though, you said you needed 6 pieces of 8 1/2 by 11 card stock but you only used 2 maybe 3 at the most. Did I miss something? What happened to the other card stock. Thanks so much for all your hard work and time!

[@kathyclementkathybydesign]

Wow, it's been years since I made this, and I no longer have it here as I gifted it. The extra pieces might have been used as photo mounts,matting or flip elements within the project. Or, I might just have goofed when I was talking and working at the same time. Sometimes that happens, too! LOL So glad you are enjoying the channel and thanks for your kind words. I love your story of how you found me! Thanks for sharing that with me!

[@abshireinterpreting8443]

Rochelle - I too wondered where the sheets were used too. But, seeing so many crafters, they do love the flip outs. So maybe instead of using the design paper to make that flip out, use the cardstock then cover. Enjoy the craft.

[@maryvicente85]

I loved your tutorial! I think I might hace missed it, can you share the name of the glue you are using?

[@kathyclementkathybydesign]

María del Carmen Martínez Vicenté thanks so much! The glue I use is Art Institute Dries Clear Adhesive. Be sure to order the precision tip as it gives you great control.

[@gokey5455]

Can you tell me the name of the tags? I love the closure, what a great idea!

[@kathyclementkathybydesign]

Thanks, Theresa! Yes, of course! These are Graphic 45 Staples Black Standard Tags. You can buy them direct from Graphic 45 at G45papers.com

[@MarilynB-MariLuv]

Hi how are you? Just watched & subscribed to your channel. I'll watch your others. I'll try this. And may use as gift or etc..Thanks

[@kathyclementkathybydesign]

Hi, Marilyn! Nice to meet you! So glad you found my channel! I'm very happy you found a tutorial you can use. This is one of my favorites! Hope you have a great time with it, and I look forward to getting to know you!

[@lilateas880]

What is the weight size of your base pages? Do you have a problem with tearing?

[@kathyclementkathybydesign]

I typically use 100# to 110# paper for these folio bases, and I have not had any trouble with tearing. Happy Crafting!
