[@mitchymomma]

​@@SevenplazaCreativeWell you should be.

[@judyneubert6687]

Margreth, Love this!! I have way too many 12 x12 paper pads (especially Christmas ones) so I think I will make a few of these. Not sure who I will gift them to but it should be fun. I love Christmas projects! Until later, Judy

[@nanmau6234]

Fabulous idea Judy this would make super Christmas projects !

I love rain and storms. We don’t get much of either in CA 😕. This is brilliant! You are brilliant! This really is amazing. I love watching you work with TH goodies of all kinds. You always knock it out of the park. Hugs 🤗❤️

[@nancada5435]

I crack up with your videos. The project is LOVELY!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@denisebrown4933]

Oh, Margareth, lovey! I have not been watching any of your paper videos (or anyone else's) for a couple of weeks now. The reason is that I have been working on sorting, purging, cleaning, reorganizing my craft room and I knew if I were to watch a video I would get too many ideas and want to ignore the reorganizing and make something. But the room project is nearly finished and I decided today to let myself watch one little Sevenplaza video. What could go wrong? Well now I'm down here in the craft room and I'm telling myself "Oh, this place is already in much better shape than before, and after all, I do have the TH paper and the TH fabric...go ahead and make an accordian folio while the idea is fresh!" I have missed you and now I have some catching up to do on your videos. Oh yeah, I'll have to catch up on the reorganizing too. Maybe tomorrow! 😁

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Hi lovey, so good to have you back 😘🥰

[@tigerberryberry3223]

Getting stereo. It is raining in Missouri, USA while I am listening to your rain. LOL

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@Westielover-m8h]

This is great Margreth, perhaps TH might get some inspiration from your ideas 😁 I love how you have created your own style based on his, and improved it too. It looks lovely made out of papers rather than plain folder card or cardstock. So pleased too to see you are in Tracie Fox's collaboration - just your style so looking forward to seeing it too. I love mix it up may so many new things to experiment with and learn too. Thank you for sharing. Crafty hugs Jacqui 😸😻❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks sweetheart 😘

[@ew8137]

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Well , I had to tell it to stay outside of my house 😂😂

[@FriedaFriemel]

The accordion folder turned out just beautiful. ❤ I love the idea of using Mr. Holtz' admirable art to recreated one of his... uhm extraordinary new products. 😅

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😁👍🏻😘

[@ozjan7927]

[@dahgotthis6890]

This is fabulous! I'm thinking of making this accordion journal for the "creep on June" challenge. Or a tag accordion journal. I can't decide. Thank you for this excellent tutorial. By the way. I just love the sound of RAIN. 👍

[@SevenplazaCreative]

☺️👍🏻😘

[@gracielatirado4110]

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😁👍🏻😘

[@cynthiatinker2657]

OMG what an amazing result. I love this. And hey the rain didn't bother me. I love the sound of the rain. But I understand the need to do damage control. Been there done that. Hope the damage wasn't severe. Thank you.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

👍🏻😁

[@thejunkjournalstudio]

Brilliant as usual Margreth! 🎉 love it!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks sweetheart 🥰

[@donnaquick5173]

Fantastic Fabulous Awsome ❤❤❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@rosemareemclure3227]

Oh Margreth your enthusiasm today for using Tim’s products was just awesome and had me smiling the whole time. Love the idea of your boo boo tape. Loving the sound of the rain in the background it is my favourite sound. Glad you are not underwater in the conservatory though 😊.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@karenhughes3558]

Hi Margreth! I love how you recreated Mr. Holtz’s accordion journal. I noticed how his pockets were bending when he closed the journal and you fixed that problem. I just love how you did this, it looks amazing! I would never have been able to recreate that accordion but you made it understandable, thank you! Boy, that rain was heavy! 🌻

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😁👍🏻👍🏻😘

[@reneebarger5194]

I love the “harmonica” fold folio, lol. You can magically extend the panels as far as we need! 😅

[@SevenplazaCreative]

👍🏻😁

[@Mocha77793]

Absolutely Adorable 💯. And, I enjoyed the rain. Thank you. God bless. 😊

[@SevenplazaCreative]

👍🏻😘

[@sandikalin636]

I loved this video, your directions are so easy to follow, as far as the rain goes, I’m sorry that you had issues and almost drowned 😬🤣, but I love rain. In fact as I was watching your video it was pouring down rain and storming here. The bad news is, we’re celebrating Memorial weekend here and it’s going to rain the entire weekend. That’s not so great Can’t wait to watch your Sunday video!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😊👍🏻😘

[@karenbelbin6790]

Totally out of the park 🎉🎉well done ❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@kimberleymaloy1728]

Oh my goodness girl! You have certainly got the gift of creator! It looks gorgeous! Love all that tim holtz fabric too! TFS Have a great weekend!😊

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@DonnaBerryArts]

You’re so funny! This was great! Thank you!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😁👍🏻🥰

[@rataturner]

I crafted along with you, with less lovely papers and my fabric wasn't ironed, so my covers are a bit wrinkled (like me). I had the added bit of fun with a kitten trying to grab my scraps and make off with them, instead of the rain that you had. I'm pleased with my results, but my covers are a bit loose and I'm thinking I might just have to glue them to hold them on. Mind you, that just makes mine, my own unique craft. Yours looks lovely!💖

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😘😘

[@lorlor2831]

Very nice project thank you. I can’t wait to give it a try ❤❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

👍🏻😁

[@corvuscorone7735]

Three minutes in and you have already givne me a "Why did I never think of that!" moment with using the paper trimmer as a score board. Absolute DUH! moment. Thank you :D I have just moved and have much of my stuff still in boxes, and cannot find my score board. I was *this close* to buying a new one, now I don't have to!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

👍🏻😘😁

[@robinmcgrane7507]

Fantastisch. ❤ Je hebt het heel duidelijk uitgelegd en is heel goed te volgen. Er kan niets fout gaan. Dank je wel daarvoor. Nu kan ik er zelf een maken. Helemaal top. ❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Super 👍🏻😘

[@onedaysoon58]

Great folio x

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@Ms.W529]

Your nails are looking great! I hope they’re not sore anymore.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Almost back to normal 😁😘👍🏻

[@jeraldbaxter3532]

Fantastic! Thank you!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

My pleasure 😇

[@donnaborda]

I just made this with some manilla folders because I don’t have any double sided 12x12s. Your instructions were fantastic! Thank you.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😁👍🏻

[@karenkettering1725]

Hey Margrete! A fat quarter is half a yard x half the width of the fabric. So the one you measured was a 44" wide fabric. I live about 30 miles north of Los Angeles and NO ONE!!! within 50 miles carries the Tim Holtz fabrics! You are so fortunate. If you search hard you can find two or three of his fabrics designs, but you can't see the whole line in person before buying.

[@terrigolish6184]

OMG! I’m using this pattern from here on out for my flip flop journals! So cute! Love the fabric cover. Looks like you did some sewing so you must have made up with your sewing machine! Just love this! You are brilliant!! I learn so much from you every time we get together. Best teacher ever!❤❤❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Nope , no sewing machine involved 😂😘

[@atarahlevy3827]

Wonderful!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😘

[@lindaknol1647]

oef , ik dacht al , wat kan je deze keer snel. maar het had dus een reden. ik hoop dat je de waterschade een beetje hebt kunnen beperken!. hier hebben we tot nu toe alleen enkele druppels gehad.... maar deze folio iserg mooi geworden , met dat stofje en al die andere vakjes en pockets! erg mooi en inspirerend weer! bedankt daarvoor Margreth! en oh , leuk weer , een trifting haul en in een antiek shop, ben heel benieuwd!!! heel fijn weekend lieverd🤗😘😊

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😘😘👍🏻

[@helijosefsson641]

Hi love 💖 This is very beautiful 🤩

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks ☺️

[@dianed4353]

Love how you decorated the folio! So many clever ideas once again!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😘👍🏻

[@KimberlyChristy-ql8ww]

I can't wait to do this ❤. I'm just using coffee dye paper for prototype

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Cool 😘👍🏻

[@kathim182]

Love this journal! I thought of another way to do it as well. Take a 12 x 12 sheet of card and make flaps at the top and bottom. Didn't try it but thought it might work.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

That will work 👍🏻😁

[@Jayne287]

Beautiful.xx

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😊

[@jannikretlow7128]

This was such a helpful video -- thank you! And the timing of watching this video was perfect, as I'm starting work on a commission project (making a book for someone who is retiring) -- and am going to use this format for the book. I got some great ideas from your video (as always). Thank you so much!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

My pleasure 😇

[@magnoliahillpapercrafts]

I enjoyed the sound of the rain, as long as you are inside it's all good 😅 I also love what you've made ❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Me inside , rain outside please 😂👍🏻😘

[@Ms.W529]

Fun as usual!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😘

[@karenkettering1725]

It is dancing!

[@MyMariesol]

I love the rain.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

I love rain too, but not inside my house 😂👍🏻😘

[@whitneykosters9102]

Love the project. You can always tell if there is a junk journaler in the house because everything is missing the backs as we take them & repurpose them 😂😂😂

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😂👍🏻😘

[@lindacurl6337]

Really awesome! ❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks ☺️

[@44hopeful]

Wonderful, Awesome, and so inspiring! Thank you so much for showing how to do this!!!

Love it! Turned out amazing! I've got the measurements all copied down so I can give it a try as well!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😁🥰👍🏻

[@deborahcooper1729]

Love this project. And I LOVED the rain. But then, rain is my favorite weather.

[@deborahcooper1729]

Also, praying your water damage isn't too bad.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks 😁👍🏻

[@melanieanderson1886]

Looks even better than the original!!! Your nails are looking fabulous by the way!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thanks sweetheart 😊😘

[@suziescrapbook3574]

I love this! I do not love the bugs but I do love your project.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

👍🏻😘

[@sandypeppers6861]

You pay for quality. I use Bart instead of Art, but it lasts a long while as well and the quality is superb. Couldn’t do without it!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

That’s how I feel about my Art 😜😘

[@annemillion1501]

This was so much fun to follow along and make! Mine is too ugly to use because I didn't have 3 pieces of scrapbook paper that matched, but it was perfect for the prototype. You did a fabulous job of explaining what to do and how to do it. Thanks!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Prototypes need to be a bit ugly 😂👍🏻😘

[@telenaeldridge3737]

Love this!!
