Fantastic! I'm going to give some of my relatives sets of CDs of family images. With your z-fold album, I could place a CD in each of the large compartments and use montages of some of the images printed on plain, off-white paper to decorate the envelopes along with pattern papers (vintage yes!). The tag inserts could carry little descriptions of what's on the CD next to them or family facts or... wow. You've given me dozens of ideas here. Thank you!
With your AMAZING creativity, great library of videos, incredible teaching style, YOU NEED TO WRITE A BOOK!! (with video dvd as well) Please think about that. And maybe paying bills :( will no longer be a sad face! (as you suggested on another video) I am constantly amazed and drawn into your videos. Your book would be a hot seller. PLEASE PLEASE think about that and take one step toward making that a reality!
WOW you really ROCK!!!! I'm blown away by your creativity. You sound so sweet and I really appreciate your share your knowledge and passion with us:) blessings to you and yours
Hi Laura! I've had this tutorial saved forever....mainly because I couldn't find that size coin envelopes (I ordered them online for $25 for 100). Anyhoo, after I goofed by putting the coin envelopes upside down, I got it right!! There is a learning curve to getting this right. But the results are very cool!! I love all thee pockets.
Thanks so much for the creative ideas. I absolutely love this one.
love it, can you remember what papers you used? Do you finish all your minis? Will we get to see them? look forward every week to what's up wednesday - perhaps seeing the finished minis could be one!!! :)
Really like your expertise and your style! Videos are instructive and fun to watch. Have a question though...on my Subscriber page the background is so dark that I can't read what the videos are. :( Is is just me?
Hi, i would like to know the name of the machine that you use to make the holes?...Thanks, and all your projects are amazing. I love watch your videos.Regards from Mexico.
I have been working on creating this. However when I put paper on it to cover the envelopes I can not get the paper straight. The envelopes kinda taper down so it is hard. How did you get yours to look so great and or straight? Thanks,
Hi wow what great work love all your mini albums. new to you tube, had a question would like to know how to get into a mini album swap please let me know.Thanks
I am still working on my 2nd paper bag mini. How am I going to have the time to do all your mini's. I love them all. As for you not being technical, I don't even know what Ustream ( or is it live stream) is.
The Martha Stewart Score Board is so much better than any other scoring tool I've owned. (I have 3 others). It's much less expensive and every line is 1/8" apart. It's worth every penny!
Laura you wow me everytime with you mini's ! I am working on th 10in envelope mini right now and it has been so much fun ! Cant wait to see your live stream ! Hugs, Janie
Love it..your amazing..cant wait to see all your new adventures...do you own stock in the envelope companies? :-) cause now Im running out to buy more envelopes!!!
Wow! You are a very creative and inventive woman! I love the envelope albums and all the cool places you find to stick things. I would love to watch you on ustream and the classes/kits sound wonderful! Can't wait!!!
What's up Wednesday?? Is our Mizz Queen Bee...busy as always...showing and teaching some of the best stuff YT has ever seen!!!! I mean it Laura you are a gem! So creative! Are you gonna do other stuff, like quilting or any other of your creative goodness. We want to learn as much as we can..??...Thanks so much! BTW, I wish YT was 15-20 min that way you could talk slower and a little softer. It sounds rushed @ times and I wanna take my time watching you at your craft! :)
wow i really cant keep up lol it takes me forever to make one mini i just love everything u come up with... i always look forward to wednesdays thanks for what you do
Love, love, love all that you do! You are such a blessing to all of us! Thanks so much for all your time and effort!
Quick question for you...in using office envelopes with photos...do you ever worry about the acid free issue? I love to do minis as gifts and don't want anyone to be disappointed later if they don't hold up well long term....But, I love using the office supplies.....your thoughts? Thanks again!
I only use scanned duplicates of vintage photo's or I have digital copies of contemporary photo's in my mini albums.. Light and fingers (and my kids!) will do more damage than the acidity during the lifetime of these mini's as they aren't in page protector's! Besides It lakes a very long time for the acidity to dramatically affect the photo's.
Great thoughts....minis were made to be handled and enjoyed! I'm off to try your idea! Thanks so much for all you do! Can't wait for online classes and ustream! Eeeek!
Thank you for sharing this idea. I have so many of those envelopes from an old project from work, been holding on to them forever. Now I have something to do with them. And the USTREAM idea, WOOOO HOOOO!!! You are an amazing artist and I would sign up for your classes anytime. Thank you for sharing your ideas!
love the mini as usual. I love the idea of the ustream classes. I would love to use what I already have. In fact I need to use my supplies as some are collecting dust. Will you be posting the supply list on your blog for the ustream classes? Looking forward to it.
Oh My Laura..............You are totally awesome!! To think up all these really cool mini albums from everyday envelopes. I wish you all the best in your adventure on to Ustream . I will definitely be tuning in. Thank you so much for everything. You make my day! I know you will do great on ustream you explain stuff well.
I think this is my favorite so far, I love that it has that vintage feel and you don't even have much embelishments on it. Will be doing this one for sure. TFS
Laura, You are so inspirational to me. I love your videos and I always look forward to seeing what you come up with next. The envelopes have been a great inspiration and for that I thank you! I cant wait to sign up for your online classes as well as purchase your kits. Let me know if you need my credit card number in advance ! Sign me up LOLOL. Warm regards, Olga, Miami, FL
Once again Laura, you have out done yourself. I would love to be blessed with your talent. I use your ideas quite often and have so much fun. I, one day, hope to post one of the mini's I have made. May God Bless You! :)
