Day 11 of my 31 Days of video's. This video is a long time coming. When I made my Vintage mini, I have a lot of requests on how I did the binding on it. I said I would do a video..so here it is about 9 months late :)
Here are the photos of the binding. This is it normal and flat.
But because the binding is wide, it can open 1/2" for each page. That way you can embellish your arse off and not have a book that looks like a "V".
We got snow again today...all day. When is spring coming? I could use some warmth and sun. I think Kristy agrees with me on this one :)
Hubby and I did a bit of running around and that is about it for my day today.
Plan on having a nice relaxing weekend. I tried to upload or download a short video on blogger. It didn't happen. How do I do this. It said it was uploading, but it never stopped. Is there a trick to this?
Hope you got some creative time in today.
Tracy

ReplyDeleteI love this binding method. I also like how you painted the edges of the chip board, so much easier than fussy cutting it.
Thanks for the great ideas.
I wish you lots of sun to melt that snow!

ReplyDeleteWay cool video! I'm ready for spring too, I think it's my favorite season. Everything is new and green and smells so good! We're running errands today and then I'm hoping to get lots of crafty time in!!!

Hi Tracy, after watching your videos and seeing all your wonderful creations, I am now hooked on making mini albums. Although I love making cards and paper toles,I am determined to make some of your mini's especially the toilet roll ones.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the inspiration :)

Tracy,
ReplyDeletewhat a great project. I have that book and didn't want to fussy cut it either. What a great way to finish it off. I am so glad you told me the tip about giving my self a bit more binding for embellishment.;)
Thanks for another wonderful video. I am loving every minute of it.
Ugh...you can keep that snow. Why do your nails always look so dang perfect?!!!
