OK, just had to start a craft along with you! Watch...pause...craft...watch...pause...craft...Ooh it’s starting to take shape! So very grateful that you share your knowledge and techniques. I am actually making projects that produce similar results to what you show! This is so rewarding!!! Thank you more than you could know, and Bless you for your kindness 🥰🤗💐
O oh Andrea I just had to tell you I love listening to you because you remind me of my mom you sound just like her.. I'm the first Canadian born and all the rest of my family is from England I'm not really sure what areas there they're from but your accent is just like my mom's and I love listening to you and in this video when you said slither for sliver when you're taking the tiny piece off I nearly died!.. that's exactly what my mom used to say! she could never say sliver either LOL thanks for cheering me up every time I watch your videos.. do take care stay safe keep sharing your wonderful videos great to see how you create
I make those little button & string closures a lot. I always struggle to get the hole centered in the middle of my circle. Why have I never thought of doing it your way!!! What a great idea to punch the little hole first and then punch the circle! Brillient! Thanks for sharing! Such a fan of your work. Hugs, Dawn
Thank you so much Andrea, that’s really really lovely of you, to talk us throughout your process and give us all easy step by step instructions. Thank you so much for showing us all. I really really love 💕 this idea 💡 it’s really really awesome. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Playing along with you Andrea. Just got my purchases from your Etsy shop printed out. Making this for my granddaughter for her birthday, if it turns out, lol. Thank you so much for sharing your videos. I love the birds in he background.
Your a great inspiration Andrea , you very much need to open a boarding house , so us needy crafters can come stay for art therapy , can’t think of anything better tfs , love this tutorial xx
Your videos crack me up. What a great tutorial also. Thank you for another idea. I’m already not throwing anything away so now the crowding gets worse. 😂
Look at me….late to the party….meh it’s ok, I’m here and that is the important thing. I’m so going to follow your instructions and make some of these this week. It is my first time here, got here thru House of Mahalo, via Inky Owl and voila you have a new subscriber. 🥰 I love hearing the gulls in the background of your video. I grew up on Cape Cod, and although I’m not sure where you are yet, it reminds me of home 🥰🥰
I am watching this video again so that I may make one of these portfolios for Christmas... your videos are always so easy to follow and I simply adore your style... that being said, because I tend to watch the videos, sometimes at night while my hubby is sleeping or when I am washing dishes, I have the “Closed Captions” on... I am used to the interpretation being quite askew because of your British accent, but sometimes it just makes me giggle at what it THINKS you said... todays giggle? Washi Tape... it thought you said, “What’ your tape?”...🤣🤣🤣 Hugs to You and Yours...❤️❤️❤️
Your digitalss are always fabulous. You have an amazing talent for them. Your tutorial for this folio is excellent. Looking forward to making one of my own. Thanks for sharing your talents with us!
I could spend a whole day watching your videos. You are so inspirational and make everything seem easy with the way you tutor and your so down to earth.. I love, love artymaze and trying all the things you teach us. Oh and love the seagull's in the back ground lol I'm from Devon originally and miss that sound and accent so reminds me of home Love it x😊
This folio is wonderful! I loved making this! The amount of pockets and spaces to store things makes it perfect to put in your purse or backpack and take with you. Thanks so much for this fun and useful piece! Laura
Who knew you could do so many things with a file folder. I can’t wait for the rest of the tutorials. I’m saving all your videos to come back later to make all these things. Andrea, your a great teacher! ❤️💞💕
Andrea that’s really really fantastic and amazing thank you so much for all your tips and tricks that you’ve shared with us all. I really really love 💖 this folio and I’m so amazed how you think 💭 these things up. Thank you so much xxx Mags
I always love your videos, so cohesive I can always follow along. I cut up all my file folders yesterday trying to do something else. Always a day late and a dollar short. ;)
I enjoy all that you share with us. I can tell that you craft all the time and are good at what you do. I had to laugh when you were scoring the folder. I have enough problems, but if I had tried to score at an angle like that, I would drive that embossing tool allllll over that board... lol ....
Thanks for putting that video together! It was great. Made one with you! Love the use of the music paper. I have a endless supply because I played for church and weddings for more than 25 years. Lessons for 12 years and still have most of the music. I am using the exercise books first! They are the oldest and the my least favorite!
What another amazing tutorial andera loved it all the tips the matting just showing us all your work is incredible beautiful file folio that will hold alot of goodies. Tfs cant wait for more.xx
Oops, I was just watching this video with you and went to the link that you had down below. I got confused and thought I was watching shabby dabby doo dah, I had commented in ur showing of this folio that Tina was doing this tutorial with your inspiration in mind. Wrong!! Got totally confused! So dont yell at Tina.. bahahaha..
Thank you Andrea! I just love love love these folios! Our file folders are made a bit differently in the US so I wonder if you would give us the maximum length and width of the file folder AFTER you’ve cut the parts off? Then we can figure it out. I’ve never seen the folders with all of the score lines in the middle. Ours just have one score line in the middle but like I said if we have the overall measurements we can figure out (by watching you) what to do! Thank you!!💕💕💕
Donna Carraway Thank you these come from the US. Perhaps a different make, as we have some that have a single score line so I know what you mean. I will measure tomorrow for you then add in the description xx
ARTYmaze thank you! I’ll look in some other shops to see if I can find them!! They came from the US...LOL. I thought that they were some special UK. type!😊
Tyvek is very expensive in Denmark and the only thing I can find I have afford to pay are tyvek sleeves you can use when you paint. Can I use them, do you think? I think maybe fabric is going to be a bit bulky or? Thanks for great inspiration 👏👏😀
I love this! 😍 But the extra flap can’t you make that out of the cut outs from the pocket? Instead of cutting one from the filefolder? Just a thought... I will definitly try to make one of these. 😊 Thank you for sharing your folder! 💕 Hugs, Erika in Sweden
Erika Kjellsson Thank you, you can make the flap from anything you want, I do things like this , then I make something with the other file folder with a flap missing which creates another different look. My mind is pretty weird lol. Xx
Diane Duncan I can’t get file folder in Denmark ether so I make them self from hanging folder 📁 I think Tsunami Rose shows how to make a mini.. so I use the way and made some big ones 👍😀
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this and am making one along with you - so much fun. Thank you so much for sharing. One question thought do you have a video on how you prep your file folder I know you coffee dye them and gesso but omgosh the one you cut the tap off is fab I really would love to know how you made that one look so gorgeous ( HUGS )
Lynn M put mine through the pocket then covered it with washi tape. The pocket is very deep so doesn’t really matter. If you remember you can always put the brad through before matting the large pocket x
ARTYmaze thank you , I haven’t been able to do much in past couple months have been very sick, things are getting better though so I’ll work on finishing this up to ease back into JJ .....have lots to catch up on. Thanks Andrea 💕
Gill Winship Thank you, They are not easy to find in the UK Carol tinson sells them in her pop up shop also you can now purchase them from America on Amazon but in packs of 100. X
@@artymaze I'm trying to find them on amazon and not having much luck, by chance do you have exact description, because the ones I'm finding don't match lol
Gill Winship here they are still under 25p each even with postage and import tax x Pendaflex File Folder, 1/3 Tab, Manila, Letter-Size, 100 per Box (65213) www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0722L14L3/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_A3zHDb1MZKHB1

I found a big stack of them at my local thrift store. Estate sales and yard sales are also a great place to find them. Also you can use some hanging file folders as well. Happy hunting!
Mmmm still, after all this time, love to hear your sea birds! Lovely project
I love your work, creativity, so inspiring. I especially loved hearing you crack yourself up. I giggled along with you.

Wow this is completely cool.
I envision your craft room being a beach house on the beach 🏖 so you can hear the sound of the sea and the seagulls while you craft xx
Lol no it’s an old bank built in the 1700’s xx
Great idea

Just purchased from you, they’re fabulous. Love this journal TFS.
Love it Andrea, and as I got file folders from Carol, I am crafting with you :)
You're just so freakin talented girl. I love this.
I got my daughter hooked on your videos.
I can see I'm going to have to invest in some file folders. this is brilliant.
Do you live by the ocean? I love the bird noises in the background!!
Yes I do it’s a very old Cornish fishing village x
File folders are expensive now. I wish I had all of my old ones from years ago. I'm going to have to look around for some at a better price.
Not sure if you mentioned how you got that look on your file folders before you started? It is amazing when it is done. So creative.
Jen McGinnis th-cam.com/video/J1LzuBMdwnA/w-d-xo.html it’s exactly the same as I used in that video x
