Michelle Allen, A Creative Operation | Willow Creek Highlands Pop Up Waterfall Album Tutorial, Country Craft Creations Design team Project @michelleallenacreativeoper6112 | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
HI! I'm sooooo excited about this one...it turned out so good...and while I was finishing this up I came up with another idea using this concept for my second project! Wish me luck when I make my prototype. But, in the meantime...heres the tutorial I promised. This is a fun album and you will love it. I'm designing this for Country Craft Creations, https://countrycraftcreations.com, and I'm using Photo Play's "Willow Creek Highlands" paper collection. I LOVE IT!
If you missed the walk through, please go watch it...I goofed and didn't really do an intro to this video! :( The walk through is here. youtu.be/2G7k5kRMpVI
For this project I used approximately:
1 - 12 x 12 heavy weight chipboard
10 - 12 sheets white Artisan cardstock
10-12 sheets of patterned paper (depending on how you cut it)
Ribbons, 6 - 14" each
2 1/2 sheets each of coordinating cardstock colors (2 colors)
I have links to the products I used below, and I have a cutting guide. I hope you like it. Remember, the die I used in this video is not available at the store anymore. I used it because I know a lot of people purchased it when it was available. You can use any die you wish and this is explained in the walk through and in this tutorial. You just need one what will fit in the space and give a nice frame for your pop up.
Thanks for watching, and stay crafty!
