Making a Mini Folder

Learn how to make a mini folder from one page.

with ScraPerfect

The basic mini folder is made from one sheet of double-sided scrapbooking paper. Using the Best Glue Ever with the No-Clog Writing Cap holds the seams together by applying a small amount of glue, which is needed. From the basic construction, you can embellish the folder as you desire.

Materials:

double-sided card stock
the Best Glue Ever
ScraPerfect’s No-Clog Writing Cap™
ribbon
stickers
scissors
The Works Board
circle punch

After you have cut the paper to size, there are three lines that need to be scored. A small cut with your scissors and you are ready to glue the folder together.

I chose to use stickers and ribbon from Dollar Tree to embellish my mini folder. The embellishment options are limitless and can really enhance the look of your folder.

Here is a look at the inside of the mini folder.

How to Reverse a Stamped Image

Quick and easy mirror a stamped image.

I know a lot of crafters want to flip a stamped image. It seems like when you have a stamp facing one direction, you find a way you want to use it the reverse direction, but how do you accomplish that? I found a simple, easy way with a tool I already had in my collection.

Materials:

stamp
ink pad
Gelli plate
cardstock

Video Tutorial:

When you use this technique, the reverse image is a bit lighter but when colored in, the difference isn’t as noticeable.

Curvy Box SVG

Grab a free SVG file to make a curvy box. #sponsored @cutcardstock

The design team at CutCardStock is featuring projects made with Astrobright card stock this month. I love the three colors I was sent and how they work well together. I created a curvy box SVG to use with them.
