- Not sure how I managed to turn quick projects into a lengthy video, but there you go. In this video I show how I use scraps and off cuts to make these five rectangular items: wrap around booklet; 2-piece pocket; lift-up/drop-down; tuxedo pocket; file folder. As always, thank you for your kindness and for watching. Be well and happy creating ♥️

I love these rectangle videos, I had no idea there were so many creative ways to use them. Thanks!
Well my friend, you’ve done it again! Always coming up with amazing ideas that we can all use and adapt to our own journals. Thank you so much for sharing your fabulousness. Xx
You’re too kind Sue. You’ve inspired me so many times that it makes me happy to hear that this has given you a new idea. Bless you ❤
Oh so many ideas! I WILL be finding out my velcro dots, my d rings and I think we will all 'want' a mitre trimmer! Lets see who picks that idea up first :-D. LOVED this video x
And I LOVE you! Thank you Tracie and I think there needs to be a Tim Hotline... along the lines of the bat phone. That way when we have a stellar idea we can use his bat phone to share it!
The longer the better Cori. Some lovely idea's to make to fit any journal. Thank you for sharing 😍
Awwww Gaye. Thank you, my sweet friend. I have a small treat I've been meaning to send to you. But darn it, I'd really much rather deliver it in person 💕
Well, now your talking!!! I’m so ready to meet you in person Cori. You would be welcome to stay xx 😘
Your craft room is perfect! I love everything about it! My space is pure chaos but I hope , one day, to have a small homestead with an actual craft room or maybe a she shed. My daughter's are both grown but still at home (19 and 22) and I wouldnt have it any other way. The world is in such chaos now that I like having them close. I live in a 2 bedroom townhouse apartment so my girls are still sleeping in bunk beds. I'm try to treasure every moment that I still have them in my home because soon enough some man will whisk them away and next thing you know I'll have grand babies. So, until then, in my kitchen I will sit crafting. Thanks for the video Cori!
I love hearing that you are embracing the now, with all its delights, imperfections, challenges and love. You'll have an amazing crafting space one day, and it will be worth every minute of the wait ❤️
Thank you Cori for the tips,very informative! Have a wonderful day!🤗💜🌻💕
Thank you, Diana, and you too!
@@CoriDahmen 💜🌻
Way easier than I thought! Thanks for sharing. ❤
It almost always is. My pleasure and thank you for watching!
Brilliant!! What wonderful ideas. Thank you so very much for sharing. 💕🥰💕
Thank you, Mitzie
I get so excited when a new video of yours pops up! Once again, great tutorial and I will be trying these out!
Thank you, Pamela. I hope you have a great time creating them 😊
I don’t junk journal or art journal (just make mail art postcards to send to friends), so why am I watching, liking and saving all these fab junk journal videos!? This one was especially tantalizing to me. I may end up art journaling yet. 😂
Well gat ya eventually! 😂😂
Lol Cherry! I’m sure having several of your creations in one journal will be fun and interesting for you. Give it a go!
Catching up on your recent videos and loving every rectangle idea. Sixty minutes of pure inspiration and fun. Thank you ❤😊
SO very glad you're joining in. I know some are "really, Cori?" but I love having ideas, even simple ones, at my finger tips for when I get stuck and don't know what to include next. Options. That's it. I'm an options girl 😁
I absolutely love all your videos. You are always so inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing ❤️
Truly my pleasure, Lori. Thank you for your kindness ❤
Thank you!!!! It’s always fun to see your videos. 🦋
Thank you ❤
Hello Cori, lovely to see what you are create, stunning!! I hope you are doing well. ♥️✂️♥️
Thank you, Joosje ❤
I LOVE that wrap a round belly band! I’m new to junk journaling and I love learning new ideas. Thank you!! ❤
Thank you and welcome Kendra!
New ideas are just happy things and I’m glad you found a new one here 😊
Love that 2-piece pocket! Hugs!
Thank you, Peggy ❤
Cori this is darling, these projects are so darling and just perfect for beginners!! And be very satisfied within a day or two most !! I love these !
Thank you 😊
Thanks again, Cori, for your thorough explanation of folds. Just made my first tuxedo folds.
Woo hoo! I hope you had a good time making them 💕
@@CoriDahmen I did have a fun and relaxing moment making the tuxedo pocket. I’ll be making more. Thanks again.
Fabulous! These are all very nice. Really like the D rings, definitely need to get some of those. Beautiful and inspirational! 🤗❤️
I love those D rings too. More bulk, but I’ve never shied away from chubby 😂 Thank you.
So inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing your work! Now I’m binge watching, I’m addicted. Hugs 🤗. Robin
LOL! As long as your're gaining some useful ideas along the way, I'll call it a win!
Thank you for sharing more great ideas. 😘
My pleasure Linda. Thank you ❤
Fantastic as usual!❤ We actually did a hmmmmm together when you said “miter saw trimmer!” HA! Thanks and hugs!
And just like that, we NEED another new tool! But seriously, how cool would that be. Oh Timmmmm! Tonic studios!!!! Where are you? 😂
Great ideas. Thank you for sharing
Thank you, Rosalind ❤
Awesome video! Thank you so very much! I’ve been looking for just this info. Don’t shorten the videos. I love getting the whole story. ..the how tos. Blessings!
Thank you, Sallie. Making idea books makes me happy 😊
You really are inspiring me to make my first journal, you are so creative. The coin envelope is a cutie. Thank you so much for making videos and sharing your God given talent, you are fabulous 😍
You can do it!!!! Thank you for your kindness, but really. Just give it a go. I still say I learn something new (usually it’s what NOT to do the next time!) with every journal. So, it’s kind of a first journal each time 😊
@@CoriDahmen im going to choose papers and move forward. Thank you for the encouragement ❤️
Great ideas! Thank you!
You’re welcome and thank you 😊
WOW! Sweet Cori another wicked awesome tutorial! I've been pausing it a lot cos I don't want it to end! Lots of crafty-goodness!! Appreciate the steps and process!! Hope you are doing well!! Hugs!
Thank you ❤️ and I'm glad it proved helpful to you. More rectangles to come! Not sure when, but the ideas are there 😊
I love your work! Thank you❤
Thank you, Darlene!
Ty for some great new ideas! I've been going down a brand new "CRAFT" path, if you will. First path I went down some 20 years ago was scrapbooking using 12x12 cardstock. Then for the next ,15 years I've been making cards. None to sell, just for my family & friends. So, I've said all of that to say this, I am now sticking my toes into making an art journal! I love this!! Wow!!
So now I'm gathering as much info as I can, & u my dear are at the top of my list of "favorite" artists! Thanks for spending so much time in making these tutorials! Hugs😊
Happy new paper adventures to you! I dove in kicking and screaming, but I’m fully addicted now 😊
Loved your process today. Definitely adding some of these ideas to my inspiration list ❤️ thank you
Thank you, Cara-Renee. I hope you are doing well ❤
@@CoriDahmen thank you ❤️
Just the video I needed today!! Thanks so much. ❤
That’s great to hear, and you’re very welcome ❤
I really do enjoy your idea or sample books, they always look so nice, tyfs.
Thank you, Lorelle. They sure come in handy when I need something a bit different for a journal 😊
I just made my first one with so many of Tracie's Paperclips, I love being able to see them all when I need one,. Your books are very inspiring, I wish I had time to make them all.
Therse pockets and such are delightful addition. I will continue later.
Thank you!
Fabulous as always - love your ideas and inspiration and appreciate the time and effort you put into sharing your wealth of knowledge with us❤
Thank you, sweet Bernie ❤
I love this series of videos, Cori! Heck, I love all that you do! 😂😂 Such simple, great ideas for using our rectangular pieces. Thank you! 😀💞
You are always so sweet Keryn. Just seeing your name makes me smile. Thank you 😊
Loved this video so much!!! I'm definitely going to use the tuxedo pocket. It's so different and interesting. But loved everything! Thank you Cori❤.
Awwww Pat. Thank you, and I’m glad you got an idea or two 😊
Love all the ideas. I recently bought a tab punch board and it’s so fun!
Agree Jamie darn thing comes in really handy!
Cori, another fabulous video (and definitely not too long). Your ideas and your examples are so inspiring. Always my favorites. Any chance you might sometime in the future put together a Cori retreat …such as “make a samples book with Cori”. I’d fly across the country to attend and I know I’m not the only one. Your ideas are just the greatest as is your teaching style. Hope you’re feeling much better.
Thank you Karen and I’ve pondered organizing a retreat for a while now. Because of working it would have to be scheduled for the summer. So, I’ll definitely think on it for next year ❤
That’s so exciting to hear. If you need any help preparing I’m willing and able.
Great projects
Thank you, Sherry ❤
I've had D rings in my Amazon cart for a while for things like that so it's a sign I NEED 100 D rings right now. LOL! I love that wrap-around and the off-set tuxedo pocket (I like things less precise/perfect and a bit wonky at times, so that's perfect for me).
I mean, what’s a few D rings between friends, right? 😂 And yes. I do love things that are a bit less precise 😊
This was terrific, Cori, thanks so much! It was a challenge getting screenshots because of your speed, but…challenge accepted, challenge met! I don’t have time to make each one for an idea book, so I crop the screenshots, step by step, and each project gets it’s own set of photos so I remember how you did them. Then when I’m ready to plan a journal, I flip through my idea book and write down the page #s of the ones I want to use for that journal, and make them as I go. This was great!
What a great strategy! I generally pop a video into my “favorites” group so I can return to it when I have time to create… then I forget that I did that 🤣
@@CoriDahmen yep I tried that, but then I’d spend more time watching through the whole video because they are so good, then the squirreling starts, and before I knew it I’d be waaay of track and well, you know…😂😂😂
@@lorraineanderson5467 🤣 #TeamSquirrel
Always excited when I see one of your videos, this was awesome as usual🥰
You’re too kind Nancy. Thank you ❤
Haha, I just ordered some D rings! Love what you did with them!!!
Great timing! Thank you, Pat ❤️
TFS Cori , nice quick makes xxx
And how in the heck did I turn such quick and easy makes into a long video?! 😂 Thank you.
@@CoriDahmen lol … pass but I enjoyed watching x
FABULOUS ❤️
Thank you ❤️
Great video!
Thank you, Kristy 😊
Wow! sug great ideas!
Thank you, Mary 💕
Wow Cori these are just brilliant. I can’t wait to make some of these for my journals. TFS💕🌴
Thank you, Annette ❤
💜💜💜
💕🙏🏼🌷
I am in love with your ideas Cori! Great explanation too! Do you happen to have a link to those flowers on Amazon that you use? Hugs and hope you are feeling well!🥰

All Julie's fault (Camelia Crafts Designs). She made me buy those darn flower stickers. So, now I need to use them 😁 Thank you, Nancy!
Hi Cori, thanks for all that you do. Is the journal made out of Tracy’s digitals? I love the paper. Also, the paper you are using in your demonstration is that Tracy’s as well? I tried to find it in her Etsy shop but couldn’t . Love all your crafts. Happy New Year!
Yes, it is! All the bits in there are Tracie's digitals. Tattered paint, I believe is the name.
Cori, the background designs on your pages are gorgeous! Can you tell us what they are called? 🤩
I soooooo love those beauties! They are digitals from Tracie Fox Creative/Love Junk Journals on Etsy. They are the tattered paint papers.
🙋🏼♀️Hi Cori
Delighted to see you here showing your little ephemera
Just a question you said your pages are a little heavier in weight, do you use filefolders? Its hard to lnow since in Australia our weights are in gsm, as i trust you would know, not lbs 🤔
Thanks Cori Ill be making some of these today
♥️🇬🇸🌺
Oops forgot to mention there are no Tim Holtz papers to buy anymore.
Is there something similar available these days as Tim wont be making anymore 12 x12s what is he or anyone replacing it with
Most of the paper I use is heavier/sturdier. The papers by 49 and Market and Stamperia are a comparable weight. I enjoy adding items to each page, so more standard copy-weight paper just isn’t sturdy enough for my needs. You’ve the Kaiser Kraft papers in AU that I believe are similar. Maybe 😊
@@CoriDahmen
the Tim Holtz papers are quite thick
I do have 1 12x12 pack from years ago
Kaiser if its double sided is quite good but those are not available in double sided only a few of them like a set of 5 papers in a pack🤔so hard to get something as good as TH s
Graphic45 are similar weight I have 8 of the 8x8s and i do have some Stamperia thats gorgeous
So I will print some of Tracies compendium on 200 gsm thats quite a good weight that will work hopefully
As for making an actual journal 🤔i dont like them to be busy backgrounds 🤔ill think more about it
Thanks Cori
Do you have a video showing how you bound this beautiful book?
Thank you, but I don't. It has been requested, so I will share the building steps later this summer 😊
Do you use an inkjet or laser printer for printables? Most of the time inkjet is fine, but for collage I find it can smear/bleed with collage medium on the top 😅 I have a business so I finally have both 🤪, but I was curious what you do.
Also… just discovered you a couple of weeks ago, but I’ve been on vacation and I couldn’t begin to tell you how many I have watched. 😂 So much fun! My first ever die cut machine is waiting for me at home and boy do I have ideas now 😁 😂
Hello! I just have a fairly basic inkjet printer. It works fine for most of what I need. If I need something done on a laser, I just take it to a copy shop. Thank you!
Oh wow! Well, welcome and have a great time with your die cut machine!
Can I ask where you got you black glass mat?
Sure! I really love this mat. It's a great size, magnetic and I was able to personalize it, which makes my heart happy. I got it through GlassboardStudio.com
Thank you. I’m goin to check it out. I appreciate it.
@@CatAScrapDesigns when I first got it they offered a code, CORI20, to get 20% off. Not sure if it still works
