Michelle Allen, A Creative Operation | Country Craft Creations, Hearth & Holiday Album Tutorial, Special Bonus Redo of a Previous Tutorial! @michelleallenacreativeoper6112 | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Hi all and welcome! I have a special bonus tutorial for you today. This is a redo project of a previous tutorial I did using Simple Stories Simple Vintage Berry Fields. For today's tutorial I am adding some fun things, including a PULL TAB REVERSE WATERFALL assembly. The differences between the two albums are explained in the video, which also starts with a full walk through, then we will dive into the new ideas with tutorial for how I made them. I hope you like the new additions I made to this album.
For the Christmas album I used papers received two years ago in Country Craft Creations Mystery Boxes. They are not available any more, however there are many new and exciting collections you can choose from at the store. countrycraftcreations.com
The original album's videos are here...
Quick Walk Through, youtu.be/MhaC2IftdU8
Complete Walk Through, youtu.be/V_q60hSyBj0
Complete Tutorial for the original album, youtu.be/zrvDLVcitpc
For this album I use the lay flat method for making the cover, and that video is here. youtu.be/VDrBoasyqtc
Below I have the original cut list and information, followed by the NEW ADDITIONS that I used in this video.
A special thanks to Bonnie Kandulski, of All Things Paper by Bonnie, youtube.com/@allthingspaperbybonnie. She is another Country Craft Creations designer and she helped with the cover/hinge/pages design and dimensions.
Below is a cutting guide to the ORIGINAL PROJECT. Thanks so much for watching. Let me know if you have any questions. After this, I have the new additions cut list. I appreciate you all so much!
