 Hello everybody, welcome to my channel. It's Eva from Bohemian Crafting and today I'm coming to share with you small project a few days ago. I created this little booklet With my patreons. It was like kind of starting up again on camera because I've been a few days off from my camera Because of your amazing orders for my paper pad. Thank you so so much to everyone who ordered it that was amazing from you that you support my Channel and my creativity with this one as well. So thank you so so much. I really hope you will like that paper pad I tried to choose really beautiful images. So thank you everyone who get that paper pad from me and I did created this small little booklet and I did use gorgeous washi tapes from Amity Bloom. Nazy had these Stunning washi tapes in her shop I didn't check it today. I will go to have a look if she does have the stock back or already or if you Probably maybe maybe will have to wait because they was gone really fast They are so good really good quality and big win or I mean a big amount of washi tape if you will compare it with washi tapes, which I have ordered from Like from China Look See so this one it's nice amount of washi tape and they are so gorgeous I did use this one mostly on that booklet and today I'm gonna be using these two mostly and for that I also choose some collections which are on sale right now this weekend only So I'll go to have a look if you if you would like to get one I do have on weekend sale these for Collections, I'm gonna go from the smallest one to biggest one One are these toppers. There is six images on the sheet You can use them as a topper on your notepads or as a tax Then is this Kind of like mini booklet So this is the base and there is also a video for this one. I will put all links down below Here is like inside a few labels mini picture tag The label Here is another another inside for that mini tag another epimeras and this is also together with this Mini booklet collection, then I do have In sales for this weekend this collection. It's called my favorite flowers and I try to do kind of like background papers With these gorgeous flowers. This is my total favorite I forgot the English name, but in Czech it's Kosatets, that's my grandpa had them full garden of the many gorgeous gorgeous colors And this and these are background papers which go with that So I hope they are very versatile and useful Okay, come on and just cleverly and striped and this one And then the last one, but the biggest one Like so many papers. I've got this butterfly blue And there is really so many so many images and I will use some of these papers today So that's why I'm showing you From Which Collections I will get that. I think I did print it out twice No, I didn't these are different images. Yes, these are different images. Good so all kind of butterfly epimeras And then you know in that blue tone postcards and tags so you can use those Small embellishments and decorate with them your papers and few adverts sheets in blue color So some of these images which I just showed you I will be using today together with Amity bloom wash tapes So for today's project, I will be using large envelope and as I said in the video before or in that talking before I'm gonna be using mostly Amity bloom tapes wash tapes and from my stuff. I found these two. They are kind of like Nicely complete, you know that those phones here. I do have a little bit darker blue Here I do have very light blue and the same I try to find in my stuff with the other kind of like brownish So my envelope is 12 and 3 quarter by nine inches Or in centimeters, it's 33 centimeters by 23 centimeters That's a size for a four size letter which can fit inside really comfortably So what I'm gonna do I'm gonna fold that envelope on the long side on the half Like this and I'm gonna flip it this way to see where is end of the entry to my envelope So I'm gonna flip it over And now I'm gonna fold it half The bottom just to that edge of entry to my envelope And because it's quite a lot of layers already now I'm gonna be all the time using my bone folder To burnish that fold to make it nice And beautiful so now I can open it and I'm gonna fold the bottom of my envelope to that fold Which I just created to that half And now I'm going to fold this edge of the entry of my envelope to that middle fold here I'm gonna kind of match it this way hold it And fold it Here I'm keeping an eye on the edges here to make sure they are matching So that's my three folds which I created Now you can take your scissors And cut From the flap of your envelope to that last fold here But I'm very bad with scissors so I'm gonna take The knife and cut it with the knife. I'm much more better with the knife because it's Kind of reminds me letter opener And I did use that quite often Just be careful if you want to use just the knife really be careful. It can hurt you very fast So I do have it open till here For that rest I'm gonna try my scissors, but I'm gonna try small ones Maybe it will be better with small ones And I'm gonna cut Not both sides Just here Kind of like Only One side of my envelope. I don't want to open it yet But it's like I'm gonna keep this together And I'm gonna cut just this top layer. So I'm gonna slide my scissors on one side Into that envelope And cut here that fold Yes, maybe a bit smaller scissors. It's a little bit better So when I fold it, I still have that bottom layer to gather And here I do have opening And right now I'm gonna fold this one here And then this one back And I'm trying to watch that bottom to make sure it will be same Matching all those edges and this one here And the edge or that end flap just back I'm gonna flip it over and do exactly the same. I'm gonna fold it this way. Keep an eye on the bottom Back and this way And back That's all folding. I'm gonna do and I'm gonna open it and where there are Uh These two sides still holding together You have something like this I'm gonna add the glue just on the bottom here I'm gonna take my glue And glue this one Just here on the bottom So once it's glued here, hopefully it's holding now I do have kind of like A sleeve here from one side to go to another another side I'm still holding it here on the top to make sure you don't get unglued And I do have kind of like harmonica or accordion With the openings here on the top to make sure That my envelope will don't get Creepy because of this I'm gonna be sewing signature here And signature here and also secure this one I'm gonna be sewing signature here and signature here. So for that I need to make four signatures And my signatures will be I'm gonna take my centimeter ruler today because the centimeters are much more Um kind of like smaller measurement, you know precise. So it will be 11 centimeters the high of my signatures And I will take seven and a half. I think it will be good To have the papers wide. So if it will be folded it's seven and a half and seven and a half, which means 15 centimeters big paper by 11 yeah so to make my four signatures I Picked from my pile of Different types of papers These I cut this one on on the smaller parts to 11 here and now I'm gonna fold it them this Hopefully will be just exactly I'm gonna try one It's a little bit smaller, but it can work. So these will be one papers I'm gonna use And I do have exactly four so for each signature I have one of them And as those signatures will be not too bulky I'm gonna try to make them interesting with different Types of papers. That's why these are here So to make sure I will don't have it too long. I'm gonna grab my book put my One side of the paper to the edge Of the first page and here I'm gonna fold it Just exactly next to that fold here So therefore, I know I can fit in it So it will be this way and here I can either cut it off that excess or I can fold it that way so then When it will be with other papers It will be like interest in my signature. So I'm gonna keep it there because you know It's like interest. So this way I'm gonna continue with other papers, too I'm gonna fold them to the size I need so I'm nearly done to prepare my four signatures I also found in my stuff handmade paper So I'm gonna add that paper in there as well You know for the texture and the color because it's so gorgeous So I'm just placing these papers, you know, it kind of mix and match Oh here, I do have opening on this side. So I'm gonna put opening on that side This one and this one from around I guess Yeah, so I do have my mixed signatures done and they are pretty cute And before I will sew them in Look at that. I'm gonna take my booklet Hey, come on And because of the color choice of here, I'm gonna use distress ink Vintage photo from ranger and distress all the edges because I think it will match nicely especially with this With this washi tape. So I'm gonna be using Vintage photo and I'm gonna distress all the edges from both sides So I do have distress All sides of my little booklet And before I will use those washi tapes, I'm gonna have a look to this To these collections, I will probably use that butterfly So from my favorite flowers, I did choose these two background papers because I think they are nicely matching The choice of my washi tapes and from butterfly blues. I do have more papers, but I'm not gonna probably use all of them I do have one of these adverts This kind of like background paper And then a few of these epimeras because I would like to cut out those envelopes especially of those envelopes and probably some longer epimeras To add them in the pockets and here What I found it was in plan, but they are exactly the size of my mini booklet or mini book So I'm gonna cut out these postcards And here these So from these two papers, I will cut the background for my pages. I just slide my signatures inside and I'm kind of You know sneak peek How thick it will be so I do have just those papers put inside not not glued yet or not sony I'm gonna cut from these two papers background papers for my mini book And before I will do that. I'm gonna actually use those washi tapes and do Layers here and there then I will cut the papers And I will probably sewn around of these papers because I like that sewing effect But if you don't like it, you don't have to do sewing effect of course So first that blue And where is the end? I think somewhere here I'm just gonna do Quick background Somewhere here Somewhere here Like this just a very soft layer And quite simple one Nothing too complicated. I'm gonna add one here And same I'm gonna do here on this paper And I do have here these I'm gonna add them there yet I'm gonna take my Lace and add there also So for quick editing my lace, I'm gonna use just Glue stick that then once it's dry. I'm gonna also sewn through I'm gonna let it dry and once it's dry. I'm gonna Sewn The lace on it as well to make sure it will hold So I do have my sewing very quick sewing just one line Through done and I'm gonna cut my pieces on that 11 By seven and a half So for each side Here and here I will create one of these mini background papers So from those two a four size papers. I was able to manage always one Full size paper and on the other side will be a little bit shorter. So there will be pocket and I can you know Put them on either side. So for each of these openings I do have one large one small And it's going same way as the book will go Here here then flip it over and we are going all around again That will be that, you know, never-ending book. It's not brand new and it's quite old Old type of books, but I think it's very interesting So I did manage to cut the pieces for each that side and I still have those two Kind of like leftovers. I do have here My inserts and also cut it on the part these postcards, which I would like to add there like flip outs And I think I can start To put it all together, but always I will distress The edges and I will use again Vintage photos. So for the first my opening I'm gonna take them off all and to show you how I will start So my book is this way Here I do have that glued page with the Tunel right here So I'm gonna start right here on the first page And I do have here these two images So I'm gonna distress the edges with the walnut stain Walnut stain. Sorry vintage photo Walnut stain is my This time favorite so that is in my head, but this one is vintage photo Ranger distress ink And I really love how it looks like with those layers I can make so sewing effect also all around all these small pieces But I think I'm not gonna do that. I'm just gonna glue them down on the page here and here I Have to remember that I would like to add there also these postcards on this on the side So before I will glue another one I'm gonna distress one of these postcards From both sides because it will be visible from both sides I'm gonna take this medical Paper tape because it's nice and strong and it's very transparent. I'm gonna Put the glue I think this way Put the glue over the edge of my Of my postcard And here I go actually around The edge so I can go this way To that next part Around the edge right here And I'm gonna open it and secure it from inside as well To make sure That the postcard will hold nicely So now I do have opening and that Tape it's glued on the background. So now I can glue on the touch tape this small small piece So I do have first opening That background done. I'm gonna open that next one and do exactly same. I'm gonna take Another two images distress them So this time I glued on this side that small one I'm gonna glue the postcard on the edge But here I do have that middle opening Where we glued those flaps together on the bottom. So I do have this Tunel or sleeve. I need to slide that Medical tape inside and I think I maybe did that too long. I will see So I need to slide it in to make sure I can get into that sleeve This way this way and good And I still can get there in And I do have beautiful opening So now I can glue this one here I will also secure that postcard from this side just in case Hold it Take my one folder and Just to make sure it can be open And I can flip it over and continue with that rest So I do have one side done And here on the end I had to slide that medical tape inside of the pocket kind of similar way like I did here In that sleeve or tunel So here I just slide it that medical tape inside and then And here it's that postcard. So now I'm gonna flip it over. I don't have to put anything here And here just because I'm gonna glue it straight away Do not forget I'm gonna Make a cover front cover and back cover. So on these two Doesn't have to be any background paper because it will be invisible anyway But when I will open it, I'm gonna continue here on that other side. I do have just these two So I'm gonna take papers and postcards And do exactly the same I do have both sides done. So this is The kind of like fist side Then flip it over and we do have this one Here is That entry and this So now I can take Each of these signatures and just very easy way to sew them in So always in the fold Here and then in the fold here and same will be from opposite side In the fold here And in that fold from opposite side This will be you do have here.

I'm gonna open my first fold And I do have my mini booklet this way here is that gluing part So my mini booklet is open this way Here I will have opening of my book. So my first opening The first signature I'm gonna place it in that fold And just poke two holes because it's quite small. So I can poke one hole here And another somewhere here and I'm just gonna go sewn With this simple stitching just really very easy way And make a knot and continue with another one And that will be from that opposite side from here So I'm gonna flip it over Take another signature And do exactly same So that way I do have sewn The papers inside of my book So I do have sewn my signatures inside Do you have one here? flip flip Flip and one here And from other side I do have one here And one here You will see that how it goes Or if you want to see it this way here, I do have that middle Here is one signature here is one signature sewn into that those folds And here is another one and here is another one sewn into these folds I do have fussy cut out all kind of these small embellishments and I also fussy cut out these Envelopes and already this slide them in but I will decorate them as well. So I'm gonna take them off I do have that base but and before I will start at their pockets and some embellishments. I'm gonna create cover I did cut out two pieces In the same size as is measurement for my For for this front and for the back page So you've got two cheap boards. I do have here these adverts And I'm gonna I'm gonna use some of them And just Wrap the chipboard into this beautiful paper Front and the back as well So I'm keeping that frame around and I'm gonna glue it down and wrap that paper around my the chipboard I have wrapped both pieces because I like to have kind of like vintage looking Sorry for that shaking Vintage looking corners. I'm gonna cut the top of it To make them a little bit worn And I'm gonna a bit my nail file. I'm gonna sand The prints a little bit down To make it like it was, you know Worn And go over the corners And because for all that journal I have used distress ink. I'm gonna distress the cover as well This will be back cover and this I will use for front cover And I would like to have that this ephemera Here on the top I will pop it up a little bit but before I will do so I want to Reinforce it a little bit. I did print out all these images on 160 gsm paper Which is quite nice and strong but for top decoration. It's not enough So I'm gonna reinforce the butterfly first With the book page So let's cut out now I'm gonna Cut into the Or around the wings Opposite side Just till here And also From here Not totally till the end Still it's holding there. I'm gonna Fussy cut out one more time That all well like this Now I can cut these sides I do have my both pieces. I'm gonna Put that butterfly somewhere here. Hopefully I'm right And I'm gonna glue the Parts Where it looks like they supposed to be So this one right here and the other one On the opposite side Right here gonna take this off So like this I'm gonna take my distress ink and I'm gonna distress all this Small part just all this oval I'm gonna distress also the butterfly here So now I can put the glue on these On this one on this one and on the body of the butterfly So on the body And also on that small part here And that top part here I want to make sure you'll actually place it the right way This way Okay It's like there And push these two pieces And the butterfly now I'm gonna let it dry Once it's dry I'm gonna lift up a little bit the wings And I'm gonna reinforce reinforce it even more because it will be on the top cover I'm gonna take piece of chipboard I used for that for the cover I'm gonna add the glue on all this oval Put it down Lift up the wings now And I'm gonna first cut out around the oval Like this so I'm gonna Distress The edge here I do have my oval. I did found this beautiful Lace And because it's too wide I'm gonna use my distress ink and make it darker Gonna be it. So I'm gonna glue this first And right here will go the butterfly And I found in my stuff this beautiful label So I will need to find something what I will put in there I do have this word relax And I'm gonna glue it on that lace so for that I'm using this multi-purpose glue Just place it right here and instead of brats I'm gonna punch the holes where they are already now. So I'm gonna just punch it also through the cover To and I will fix their annihilates And now I can take some cardstock and Put a layer which I will use under this oval For making this image a little bit pop up.

This is a little bit popped up. I'm gonna take This piece not yet. Oh, yeah, I can do that now. I'm gonna take this piece And I'm gonna rip off The small part of book page Especially, you know the edge and I'm just gonna place it all around So it will be peeking out a little bit. There you are somewhere here. So I do have Small layer of book page all around I need to poke the hole here There you are. I do have prepared a little bow made from lace With very long ends. So I'm gonna try To push it through here And to make sure it will don't move also I've got here hot glue. So I'm gonna put just a little bit of hot glue underneath and press it And now I'm gonna push it through here. Now here. I need to take Some tool. I will have decorative ends here at the front with the bow Now I can take a glue put a glue On full of that front page and place my cover on that Here and here I'm gonna make sure I'm kind of strict With those ends and here and here that I am matching the corners And press it all together I already did the back cover the same way so now I can let it dry properly. I will put something heavy on it Little Bible here So I'm gonna place it on the top. It will nicely press everything Together And I already decorated this envelope. I just put a layer of these washi tapes in there then Delays and I saw through With my sewing machine just one line There is underneath And then I placed one butterfly here The postcard for the butterfly blues collection here And here I placed the notes and secured it with those brats and from the opposite side. I just tape Tape that medical tape over it, you know to secure those ends And I think as the last one what I'm gonna do right now I'm gonna create kind of small clusters, which I will use Which I will use as a pocket So I'm gonna put here and there small piece of washi tape, but then Uh, I will make small layers with these kind of mix it All together So these small blue rectangles are from butterfly blue collection. They were uh next to those small postcards, which I already used In that mini journal So now I'm gonna use these To make a layers clusters little clusters No, maybe that one right here And piece of lace On it, you know beauty of handmade journal is In those layers that when you buy The journal In the shop, it's mostly everything print down. You can have their beautiful images But not too often Are there also things you can touch and feel So beauty of the handmade journals is exactly in that that you can Touch the texture And it's so interesting, you know to feel different types of These laces and maybe buttons and stuff like that Oh, didn't I make it too white? I think I did Okay Well, ah here. Okay, you're gonna be peeking out. That's okay And I would like to have something here. I think some button On this one will be I can go That far All right, so I do have my few little embellishments done. I put here and there some buttons And this one is somewhere else. So I'm gonna place them I feel they should go where is my glue? Here is my glue So I'm gonna place these clusters as a pocket on my pages And this is our little book how it looks like when it's filled and I'm gonna show you how I put those pockets. I add here and there Some of these small embellishments So it does have writing pages quite lots of them. I have to say for this small journal and quite fast journal So it does opening here pocket here And also pocket here. It does have also pocket here because you know that first one. So I add their um Tacks here and there and also the envelopes I decorated into some of these pockets So we do have pocket here and tuck here Opening and tuck here Opening and I forgot to put something into this Middle pocket right here. I will have to add there something So opening And pocket here And again tuck on the top another pocket here and envelope on the top In that pocket writing pages and I think Haven't I said that but I think I said myself to check it out And I did so it upside down Yeah, but that's beauty of the handmade journal You will have there some surprises And we do have opening here and pocket behind And this is kind of like back cover and we do have there that tuck and opening Opening there is that another envelope.

I use the butterfly to kind of Extend that small tuck and again some boots on for decorating The tuck on the top tuck here envelope writing pages Some openings handmade paper clips by the way. I made them I think it is last year when I made them actually and pocket here So that's my Little mini That's my small small notebook or notebook or booklet or accordion book And we do have this lace here on the bottom I didn't make any closure. I was thinking if I will make some closure, but then I don't know. I think I like it this way that it can be stand up Maybe on the shelf this way So you will see Front and back of the cover and you can see all these tacks Or it can be there this way if you will place there. Maybe maybe some small pictures so you can place it Somewhere as decoration this way So it's quite quite funny project this one It's nothing new accordion books are here for many many years And they are so fun to make and I hope Using the envelopes it's a good idea.
