I bought glue strips on Ali Express and they work perfectly. The good thing with the ones I bought they are very thin so you can use as little or a lot depending on what size book you are making. Cost was very cheap for a hundred and a good length. I live in Australia and I'm very happy with the results. Cheers Jan
that's awesome! Good to know that you can use other brands as well:)
Such a awesome sketch I loved the inspiration it gave. I will be doing it again. Loved your way to do it. Great job. and ty for sharing your telent.
thanks for playing along!
That is a handy swatch book 😀❤
yes it is!
Cute!
thank you!
Cute layout! 😀❤ I love the sketch! It is stretching my mind and I hope to figure out a layout soon😀
awesome!
I have heard Red River Paper is really good for photos
good to know:)
Wonderfully inspiring. Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Groovy layout! Cool papers! 😀❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Super cute! 😀❤
Thank you! 😊
Very Cool NIKKI!!! Love THIS!!!
Thank you!!!
Frixion erased text should re-appear if you put the document/notebook in the freezer.
Oh I’ll let my dad know!
I love it!! I still need to do my daughter’s wedding album and I am just overwhelmed with all of what to include: like getting ready, etc. maybe I just need to start with the ceremony and go from there. I really feel it could end up being more than one album!
Yes! I did a Shutterfly album for this moments that don’t require a back story and then this one has more of the story
What a fun layout!!! Love the papers as well. ❤
Thanks!
They look like great Collections!
They are!
Any company you know of with brighter colors ?
Vicki boutin is coming out with a fun line called bold and bright! It has such fun bright happy colors! I feel like in general the industry is leaning toward more boho colors I hope it changes soon
What a cutie ❤ great layout!
Thanks so much! 😊
LOVE! I think I saw a tutorial where someone DID NOT adhere the glue strip to the spine and had a hard time getting the pages to line up right. I still have my cinch in the box because of that. Now, after seeing your tutorial I can't wait to make something!
Fantastic! Just expect that it will take some time to figure out what works for you and don’t forget to have fun!
Niche is pronounced like "neesh". 😊
Bahahhaha thanks!
It's the Scrapbook Expo brand. It's been around for a few years
Some have more because they are newer and parts of the line aren't sold out yet.
Oh! That’s good to know
Thanks for sharing. I’d never heard of that company either.
Awesome! Glad I introduced you to them😍
There seem to be no perfect trimmers that work for every trimming task. I have a variety of trimmers, but I love the precision cut of my Fiskars with the wire, but the blades need to be replaced too often-very annoying. I have a Cutter-Piller, but it also has it’s limitations. I had to replace the battery cover, too, because it was lame. I have so many comments to make about this episode, but I will try to keep it short. I love my ATG, and Tape Jungle seems to have the best deal if you buy the tape in bulk. Like Janet, I use ATG to secure paper and photos, but then I come in with the Scotch quick dry to really adhere all of my paper and photos down. GREAT discussion ladies, I could go on and on.
I haven’t quite gotten in the double adhere band wagon but I’ve gone through some older albums that need a little TLC and it’s making me think I should consider it a little more closely ~Melanie
Thanks for the input! Can’t someone just make the perfect trimmer 😩
Great discussion. I use the scotch atg, my favorite liquid glue is art glitter glue. I would like to find a good pair of non stick scissors. I have a hobby lobby pair, but the non stick isn't that great. Do y'all have any tips on sharpening a pair of scissors?
I honestly have never tried to sharpen a pair of scissors… so no tips from me but maybe someone else watching knows? ~Melanie
My thing for the kitchen knife has a slot for scissors. I would try that!
Just like both of you I'm still on the hunt for the perfect trimmer. My go to adhesive is ZIG jumbo tip (no tape runners). I was surprised glue dots was not included as an essential adhesive?!?!? Similar to fabric only scissors, I have a pair of scissors I use for cutting ribbon only. I have both a trash can and a recycling bin in my craft room. A few of my favorite tools - Stampin' Up! tearing ruler and Mrs. Grossman tweezers.
@Kathleens7898 glue dots have dropped off the list for me. Used to be go to but I find I rarely use anymore. I will use scor tape instead or liquid glue. This is probably because the items I used to use glue dots on I don’t use a lot (like buttons and ribbon). That’s my theory anyways ~Melanie
I use the 3in1 where I would use glue dots. I don’t really trust glue dots for long term hold.
Love my yellow & black scissors, and my Tim ones. Love my Scotch ATG, and my SU trimmer.
@taniab2018 how often do you go through blades with the SU trimmer? ~Melanie
My friend gifted me a pair of cutterbees and I have fallen in love!!!!
Reverse tweezers, AG mini Empress machine, dies! Everything I create has some kind of die on it!
Reverse tweezers are a good one! Thanks Kay ~Melanie
That’s awesome! I should use my dies more. Are you more of a scrapper or card makers?
My favorite adhesive is Bearly art glue for a liquid and KOKUYO that I buy on Amazon. I have used this for years and love this tape runner!
@kaymcclurg9881 I’ve heard of the Kokuyo but have never tried it. Now you’ve got me interested ~Melanie
Same. I use both of these. I stopped using my ATG because of the tape boogers and it was too hard to pull up to reposition. Could be because I started using off brands.
Those kinds of tape runners don’t last long in my space… but it looks like u can get a whole case for cheap which maybe a good option
@@nikkisscrapbookingadventures The Kokuyo has a lot of tape on a roll. Much more than Tombows.
I have the CM trimmer and it’s ok, not my favorite but I invested in it so I use it, I have the large Fiskers rotary and the Tim holtz 8x11 trimmer I use for photos.
Yep … I hear you on this one. I had to laugh… I was crafting on the weekend and ended up using 3 different trimmers. ~Melanie
I’ve debated trying it out to see how the paper shift is. Do u notice that u have to lift your paper to get it square?
I have a pair of cuticle scissors in my fussy cutting arsenal. I think it’s helpful for curves. I do flip it back and forth depending on the direction of the curve.
Another great conversation! Thanks!
I never thought about using them for curves. Makes sense that they would work well ~Melanie
Woah…..
Thanks super helpful
No problem! Glad I’m able to help!
This is so helpful!!
Glad you think so!
Looks great!
It does!
What a great idea to share. Your so informative. I just love all you share ty so much.
You’re welcome!
I'm glad you made this video. I was wondering how to use Canva for this since I have a pro account and no photoshop.
You’re so welcome! Glad I could be helpful❤️
That was interesting! You made it look easy! How do you resize a png file? And what software do you use to edit it in? A need to find a tutorial on this. ❤😀
I use the pre installed editor in my phone. I usually adjust the brightness, the white and black point. Then sharpness. Sometimes I’ll use the vivid, vivid cool or vivid warm preset filters after I’m done. Just got an iPhone so trying to figure it out still. For resizing I use an app called image size. I paid for the android version not realizing I didn’t really need it just to get rid of the commercials. I might end up paying for it again if I find it limited in any way. But I love that app
That is a very handy pencil box! Thanks for sharing! 😀❤
Yes! It is super easy to take to crops☺️
Great idea!
Thanks!
Love the stitched baseball! Fabulous layout!❤😀
Thanks so much!
I've watched this video a few times and I love this machine so far!
Awesome! So glad this has helped!!!
A festive layout and I love the paper. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!
Very cute! Where did you get the sticker guide?
shrsl.com/46wbi and it's on sale!!!
So where did you get the little containers? I couldn't see the label.
At a local game shop. They hold about 100 cards
Fun layout! Fabulous storage idea! 😀❤
Thanks so much! 😊
Congratulations on reaching those goals! Loved your layout! I have a couple goals for scrapbooking that I am working on. This would be a good time to refocus my energy on them! Awesome video! 😀❤
You can do it💪
I have watched these two chats on journaling several times! One of your best chats! ❤❤❤
Aw thanks!!!
Thanks so much Colleen!
Fabulous chat! Nikki your Breathe and Not Always Rainbows and Butterflies journaling was amazing and so expressive. Thank you for sharing them. Teen Angst so awesome and thought provoking. I do make layouts of tough moments. I do tend to journal a lot and make a space for it. Such a variety of journaling, very inspiring! Melanie your song titles album sounds interesting! I would love to seea flip through! And your thoughts on pivotal moments, I need to do a few of those pages. I would enjoy journaling prompts. So many great examples! ❤❤❤
I would love to see Melanie's album too! It sounds amazing
@colleencornett342… I’ll think about it… it’s actually a couple of albums which is a lot. It’s also an older album and my style has changed quite a bit. Still interested?
Lots of lovely layouts and cards! You got so so many pages and cards! Do you know how many sheets of paper you used up? 😀❤
No... I prb should've kept better track. I bet it was 6-8
I got mine before for my birthday instead of having to wait until Christmas. The box had a big hole in it so I panicked. I plugged it, it worked, set the time, it worked. However when I ran my hand over the top, the only place that I could really feel the heat was near the top of where the timer button was. Near the back end, I could barely feel any heat at all. Is this normal or is it defective? I didn't try a book yet as I am waiting on strips to come in so that I don't ruin the 3 good ones that comes with the pink.
I think the best thing to do is to try it out and see if u can make a book with it. The sooner u test it the better so u can still contact the seller if something is wrong
@@nikkisscrapbookingadventures I did let them know so if it does have a problem I can return it. They said that it was okay to wait.
Loved your goal layout! Funny that you didn't make a 2024 goal layout until now too. Something funny went on in January this year LOL. Good luck reaching your TH-cam goal and congrats on reaching your DT goal!
Thanks!!! This year has been so weird!
So funny about the quilling. I recently made a comment on one of my videos about paper quilling and have since decided that I NEED to use the technique on a layout! Congrats on your own channel & DT successes and cheering you on as you keep going with your goals!
It really hurt my hands after an hour. And I don't have arthritis but wondering if I'm developing carpal tunnel or something
Awesome layout and congrats on meeting two of your goals!
Thanks!
