    Yet another awesome tutorial Michelle! One thing that I have done when giving these as gifts is to cut several more strips for the top of the actual notebook and then I tuck them in the pocket in the back. That way when they put in a new notebook they can glue one of the coordinating paper strips to the top. Hope I explained that well... I am sometimes "explanation" challenged!!

    Thank you! I loved learning the accordion pockets! I only have the base done so far. I still don’t know how much paper I used, I think I could have cut it out better utilizing my paper. Now I have to figure out the sizes for my designer paper! I really love this configuration.

    • @michelleallenacreativeoper6112
      @michelleallenacreativeoper6112  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you so much☺️🫶🏻☺️I really do appreciate it. ❤️I usually don’t write out the measurements for patterned paper, however, I usually cut patterned paper 1/8” less than the piece they are covering. So for example if you are covering a 5x8 piece of cardstock I cut it at 47/8 x 7 7/8. I hope that helps you.

      Absolutely. Measure how wide and tall it would need to be, add 1/4” for the gusset/box depth space, then add 1/2” for a tab to attach it to the back of the box. I haven’t done it. I actually thought about it too!
