I used your technique for putting the pocket pages together (2 sheets, 8x101/2 with 1/2" score), and my pages came out perfectly matched in size! This is a first for me and I'm going to use your line up technique, pull tape in sections, and square up from now on. Thanks!
Thanks be sure to share this little gem with your other crafting friends. Daphne
This is THE BEST tutorial for starting a scrapbook album !!!! Thank you Daphne
Thank you so much! We have some interesting stuff coming soon! We have a couple new Brands Prima and 49 & Market .... we'll have tutorials soon. Love Notes from Graphic should be out in a week. Stay tuned in and share.
Being left handed, it's always great to see more lefties that have a few tricks to help! Thanks so much for this tutorial!
I know what you mean! I spent way too much time trying to get that tape on the edge of the paper I wish a lefty had given me permission to give up sooner lol.
Just watched this for the umpteenth time. Honestly this video should be in the Mini Album Hall of Fame ❤️ You really worked your heart out for us. You’re amazing 😍 Thank you for the amount of work you put into this tutorial. 👏
Thank you very much! Daphne
Hi! I’m new at watching your channel. I love how you explained about the grain of the paper. I thought it was if the paper was smooth or bumpy. Thank you for explaining that!😁
your welcome - thanks for watchinig
Being a newbie to this craft l have found your tutorials and they are so helpful...thankyou for making it understandable
Your very welcome
Excellent tutorial! This is going right into my Favorites folder! I love the idea of making a bunch in advance whenever you’re in a slump or just have some free time. What a great suggestion! Thanks Daphne ❤️
Brilliant tip on the grain of the paper! ❤😊
I was working with paper for years before i heard or listened to someone explain this.... so simple to show on video hard to explain otherwise. be sure to share the tip! Thanks for watching!
A really great tutorial! I truly enjoyed your teaching. Thank you.
Thank you so much - I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial.
Big big thanks and hug for this tutorial ☺💙
Right back at ya! Daphne
Really enjoyed your turtorial
Thank you!
What weight do you typically use for matting your photos and also for your picket pages Daphne
I use 65lb cardstock for everything in the album. Daphne
My preferred brand is Neehna Astrobright Eclipse Black. I get it at walmart a pack of 50 for just under $4.00
Hi! Great video! Can you please tell me the name of the long tool you use to lift up the tape and where can I buy that and the acrylic square? Thanks!
Here is a link to the acrylic square

I've added a popsocket to the acrylic square to make it easy to pick up - the pop ups are made for phones google it there are many options.

Glad you liked the video!
I have a dilemma...lol. I have the base done, but I used glue. I am finding that my front and back covers are "bowing". Is there any fix for this? Or will the covers flatten when I add my papers and embellishments? I have pictures if there's a way I can send them to you. Do you have a FB page? Help?
you can cut small holes or slices in the paper and try to get glue in to hold it down then cover with designer paper. Daphne
when you use the cardstock for covering your base album what weight do you use, Thank You
I use 65lb Neenah Astrobright Eclipse Black
Daphne I just did this album that was attached to the Alice tea party album and I got it all done and I even got the first page done before I realized that it was the wrong album the album that’s attached to the Alice tea party graphic 45 paper is a landscape and the album that is attached to it is a Portrait so I know I’m a beginner at it but I was wondering if maybe others had the same problem also and if you could maybe change it to the correct album
Oh my gosh I'm soooo sorry. I will fix the playlist with the landscape version. I feel terrible!
All fixed - thanks so much for letting me know.
Thank you so much I made the whole album before I realized it wasn’t the right one I just rely on you totally because you’re always right you’re so precise and perfect when you do your your albums I love watching you and I love doing your albums because they’re so good you’re so beautiful there so perfect thank you so much have a lovely day
Thank you for letting me know! Hope your album turns out wonderful. Daphne
Great tutorial. What paper trimmer do you prefer? Do you cut the chip board by “hand?” Do you also use Neenah paper 65lb for white albums?
I use cutterpilar to trim my papers, I do hand cut chipboard, and Yes I use Neenah white, cream or black for my albums. the Neenah cream is a perfect match for g45 ivory tags. Daphne
Scrap N Create thank you. Is it the classic crest cream or exact cream vellum?
It's Astrobrights Cream
Just found this tutorial and can't wait to get started. Something happened at 3:34 and when it came back there was a line drawn on the black cardstock. I've replayed it several times so it's not my computer I don't think. What is the line all about and how did you determine where to put it?
I drew a line as a reference for the chipboard pieces. Its a reference line to help place the chipboard, I usually come up about and inch from the bottom of the paper (as I did here). I forgot I was doing an 10 1/2 cover and wrapping it with 12 inch paper so I had to adjust my reference line down. Sorry that was a bit confusing. Daphne
@@ScrapNCreateVideos No problem. I am so new to this that I am trying to learn everything I can. I did get my album done and am ready to decorate. I thought you had a Lost In Paradise tutorial for this one but all I'm finding is the Landscape option. Is there one you did for this size / shape that maybe I could use the LiP paper with instead?
@@cruisingal1 Yes I have a few the most recent Joy to the World, Christmas Magic, Princess and Bloom are all 8 1/2 x 10 1/2 portrait albums. If you select playlist just under video viewing all of our projects will come up once you locate one you like select "view full playlist and all the project videos will come up. Daphne
Additionally if we have a tutorial for a Base Album there will be at least 1 project that uses that format. We have a playlist of just album builds so you can see all the sizes we currently have. Daphne
9 7/8 up and down for the binding right and then what sizes are the pages because I think I’ve confused myself
