Michelle Allen, A Creative Operation | Simple Vintage Berry Fields Album Tutorial, a Country Craft Creations Design Team Project @michelleallenacreativeoper6112 | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Hi, and welcome! This tutorial is for the album that I did a walk through here, youtu.be/V_q60hSyBj0. I'm using Simple Stories, "Simple Vintage Berry Fields", and it is available at Country Craft Creations... countrycraftcreations.com
This does take quite a bit of product. I do go over that in the video. The colors of the My Colors Cardstock that I used to mat are Velvet Night, Carnival Red Mint Julep and Gold Rush.
I did use ephemera that I had made during my previous design team project using this paper collection. You can see that video here in case you missed it. It is my Honeycomb Ephemera Organizer, youtu.be/Gd1E_nm7IlQ
In this video I use the lay flat method for making the cover, and that video is here. youtu.be/VDrBoasyqtc
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 and links to the collection/products I used. Thanks so much for watching. Let me know if you have any questions. I appreciate you all so much!
