[mariahub]

I am new to your site and have been searching and searching for "how to's on making amini album". Many other videos have mini albums, but they are done. I was so excited to find yours...but, I cant seem to find part 2, can you direct me to it. I really want to learn to make one, also I want to learn to make one with pockets and flip pages. So do you have a tutorial for any like that. I am hoping on learning to make some money, finances are really bad and these might help out a bit. I hope.

[Lv2learneverything]

Thank you so much for posting this video.  I'm watched at least a dozen of these mini album videos and everyone receiving from a swap. All of them are so amazing and beautiful. It's like everyone is so extremely creative and clever. I thought there is no way I can do one of these.. Until I saw your video. I know there is no way to do a wrong mini but some are on a whole different level. I love your mini's. thank you so much for helping me to see I can make a beautiful mini.

[ChapmanGriffith]

As a beginner I need this, thank you so very much.

It is such a great treat for us to see you do a tutorial! Just when I was getting flustered with scrapbooking you inspire, again, by making an ADORABLE and fast mini. Great idea personalizing the tags from your swap...painting them and inking the lines on them - there's a new one - LOVE it!!! Thanks for sharing We all miss you so much between your vids!!! Sharon :D

[Steffogal1]

@NJGardengirl1961 Ah Sharon!! Thanks .. your so super sweet ! You made my day!! ta-hee !:)

steffogal1

[alyciajo42179]

When you make your layered flowers do you have a page already in mind or have you figured it all out and just make them all at once? Is that question clear as mud? :)

Great mini and video!!

[Steffogal1]

@alyciajo42179 I just make the layed flowers all at once... so then i have something to choose from when i do a page. but everyone's different.. do what works for you:)

[ruledbylabs]

I love, love, love this mini....TFS. Can you tell me where oh where you find your eyelets at????

[Steffogal1]

Love it, thanks for putting this video up! I have lots of stuff to work with, I just get stumped where to start, and so stuff just sits there!

[MsJoyceG]

cute, good, more, more and more.

[sil2289]

Great video! Love this paper collection, it's beautiful.

[malissamae1]

Awsome video!!! I was wondering where you were, I know though, summer, kids and scrapping are hard to juggle. Did you make that mini in one sitting? Do you always buy all the elements from 1 desighn or 1 kit and stick to that or is that just for newbees to get started? sorry so many Q's. Either way your minis are always beautiful. Malissa

[Steffogal1]

@malissamae1 HI ;) thanks for super sweet comments.. I made the mini in 2 sittings, I used Basic Grey Origins as the MAIN focus of the mini and incorporated other 'coordinating' products! :) hope this helps! This is just how I do it.. everyone has their own process ! You;ll find yours too!!

with a grin,

steffogal1

[littlelyds1]
