My Mom passed away in early April. Her funeral service is today. I wanted to let you know that I was inspired by your folio videos to make one for her. I used one of the larger sympathy cards as a base (I was able to open it up into three sections), added one of her favorite papers to the cover and covered everything else with coffee dyed paper. I added a sympathy card from her sister which matched the colors and created three decorated foldout envelopes, pockets, and two belly bands. I filled it with her favorite family photos, a letter from me, a dried flower sprig from the last bouquet my Dad gave her, and examples of her artworks (draft poem, draft drawing, and a sketch of a dress she designed). I tied everything up with some lace trim. I’m going to put it in her casket so she has some of her favorite items. Thank you so much, Tina, for inspiring me with this project. It’s been a loving process and I feel like I’m really doing something special for her.
That's a wonderful way to cherish your Mum memory.
Sorry for your loss. That’s really nice that you were able to make something for her, to show others the love you had for her. I hope a year later that your grief has lessened and the memories and joys you had of her are more present.
I like all the coffee dyed papers and envelopes. You are right that every folio will be different. I would never try any of these on my own. I am loving all your new papers and I still have so much I have printed. Much love ❤❤❤
I think it's gorgeous! I hope you have a super fantastic day 💜💜💜✌️✌️ Sherry
Having fun following along with you. All the flaps, pockets and tuck spots make these intriguing and beautiful! Hoping all is well your end of the world, hugs and blessings, :)
I just love this, Tina! I love envelopes, which I think is a totally strange thing to love, but look how useful they are! I'm going to make one of these. Thanks for the great idea!
I know what you mean Terri, envelopes are so versatile aren’t they? Only a crafter would get our love of envelopes wouldn’t they? Lol. Have fun x
@@shabbydabbydoodah I work in a large grocery store and drag cardboard home all the time. Not boxes, heavy duty cardboard for book covers. I go and buy paper bags from stores that use them to cover my journals. I steal cereal boxes out of recycle bins while I'm out on a walk. People must think I'm strange! LOL! Thanks for the great videos, Tina. Yours are the ones that I watch consistently.
Love seeing you wing it and go with what looks good. I played a little game to see how many tools you used to crease/glue...credit card, bone folder, scissors, finger, tissue...hehe
Lol, wow who knew that I used so many things for creasing? 🤭 x
Hi Tina, love the folio, this lends itself to lots of different places to add papers and tags. Take care and stay safe. Hugs. Theresa
Good morning Tina, loving the folio so far! Off now to watch the others. Hope you and the family are doing well, thanks for all you do. ❤️🌹
Oh thank you so much Brenda, have a great weekend x
Wow!! I'm not able to think a construction like yours😅👍👏👏👏
This was a fun process to watch! Your papers are very pretty as well!! I must watch the follow up.
Thank you, thank you....this is just what I needed to see to understand the envelope folio.
This looks like such fun, Tina. I think I will give it a go today. Thanks for sharing.
I love folios but have never tackled one. After watching you I think I can give it a good try! TFS
I love that you don’t measure things! It’s so freeing when not bound by number!!!! Great video!!
Very interesting, there is a lot to think about in this project. It will be interesting to see how it turns out.🇨🇦
Thank you Bernice x
WOW! Quite a combination of papers and envelopes for a folio. I might have to look at this again.Carol from California
Have fun if you do x
Oooh, I love folios!! I’m adding this video to my saves, so that I can refer to it next time I make one. Thanks so much - I love ALL your work, but I’m really looking forward to watching this plain duckling emerge into an elegant swan. 😊
Morning Tina, this is JUST what was needed. Have wanted to do one like it for such a long time, but never quite knew how to go about it, so THANK YOU for this super video. Can't wait for the next episode. Hope you are all well and safe. Blessings and hugs as always from Cape Town. Diana
Thank you so much Diana, I hope you have fun making something similar. Stay safe and well x
Cant wait to see the finished folio Tina xox
Hi Tina, i struggle so much with making folios. But, YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY!! And you have such a large variety of envelopes. I’m going to gather envelopes, tea/coffee dye them and then replay this video and follow your process. Thank you so much. This video is very helpful for one (I won’t mention any names 😂) who struggles with folios. Have a great rest of your day. Hugs 🤗
Lol, I am so pleased that you found this helpful. Yes, definitely gather your envelopes and give it a try, you will soon be hooked, folios are one of my favourite things to make x
Thank you for the great inspiration.
Very helpful Tina just great 😊🤗
Looking good. I enjoy using envelopes to make folios. Endless possibilities. Thank you.
Thank you, you made it so relaxing and fun !!!! I'm going to enjoy all the possibilities in making these!!! Hugs, have a lovely day!!!
Thank you so much Anita, have a wonderful day also x
Great start to a folio! TFS the inspiration, Tina!
Thank you so much Gail, hope you’re doing great x
Hi, finally, I get to watch you!🥰 Hope your day has been great! While watching I’ve been trying to slice some paper into small squares, I’m going to try & make the pinwheel pattern! 1/4 by 1/4 is hard to slice!🙄😳 Another great job by you! Thanks for sharing! Hugs!❤️
This folio is so pretty. Your papers are just so beautiful with the soft colors and polka dots. Looking forward to watching the next video.
Thank you for doing this project Tina!. I love folios and this one is going to be beautiful!
This is going to be amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Tina
I have always wanted to make a folio and yours looks easy x
Love how you dive straight in I spend ages trying out which way they should flip etc. Like you said you can always cover it up after. Great inspiration as usual Tina thank you 🥰
Card making is the same! There really is no mistakes just happy accidents!
Really really amazing loving it thanks Tina 😊👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you Sue x
So many pockets, this is going to be another beautiful project, love the colours of the kit, could be another visit to Etsy lol, tfs sweetheart huge hugs x Julie
Lol, thank you so much Julie x
Dear Tina! This is one of the most helpful videos I’ve seen so far!! I’ve learned all about how to make all sorts of pockets & tucks, but not so much about how to create the actual folio itself! I had no idea how to add all the other layers that I’d seen in finished folios.This is so fun, now I want to make a folio now with all the bells & whistles! Thank you so much! This should be on everyone’s list of the most helpful in learning about journals & folios!
I love this! Now I need to watch again and try to make this. Hope to see you decorating this beauty. Hugs...
Just loved that! Thanks!
I keep meaning to make a folio so this has spurred me on ...tfs x
I love it thanks for sharing dear 😍😍
And congrats on the 30k subscribers dear 💃🏽💃🏽❤️❤️❤️
What a great gift idea for friends and family! I’ve been trying to figure out what to make for a friend’s daughter’s destination wedding this summer. Now I have a plan. I will use the save-the-date card, invitation, and bits and pieces I collect from the wedding as material for my folio. thank you!
Everything you make just always turns out so lovely! I can't wait to see the rest!
Love all the pockets & flips! Can't wait to see more!
It's looking good 😊 I love how you make everything work together and that you add lots of interest 💖 of to watch part 2 tfs ❤️
Ooh, yes. I'm really enjoying this project and now want to make one myself!
I like your take on these, and the paper that you chose is perfect. Thanks, Tina!
THIS IS SO PRETTY-TFS-HUGS/BLESSINGS
Love,love,love, it already!!
Love this idea, Looks like a lot of fun. Can't wait for the next video on this. It would be fun to add some flips to the front and back covers as well. So many options.
Thank you for producing tutorials that even newbies can follow. One thing I haven’t seen is information about sewing machine needles that are good for stitching paper. What sizes do you use for various weights of paper, or do you use only one size needle?
Ohhh I love this cannot wait to see the finished piece x
Great start! Such a fun project! ❤️
Oh, this looks like such fun! Thank you, Tina!
As I may have mentioned previously (only a few dozen times), I l-o-v-e a good folio❣️ This one is looking like a lot of fun and I'm gluing right along with you. Love the paper you're using. Thanks, Tina. 🇨🇦
Getting my stuff together
Love all you make but folios especially. Thank you so much for inspiration.
This looks like a fun folio, I’m going to put one together, thank you! ❤️
Wow! This is amazing and creative!
This is amazing! I can’t wait to see the next video showing how it progresses!
I'm really loving this!
This is exactly the guide or tutorial I’ve been needing! Thank you!! I can’t wait to gather my envelopes...I’m now waiting on the mail carrier! 😊
Oh that’s awesome, have fun when you get your envelopes x
So inspiring 😍 crafting along 😍
Thank you so much Lena, I love it when you craft along x
I just finished one of those and didn't know it was a folio. I like yours with the coffee dyed envelopes! Covering mine completely with scraps made it too junky!
So much fun,cant wait till the next video.
Awesome base.
This is very interesting! Tfs
Fabulous!
Beautiful!!
It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, I need to try again. Thanks for the inspiration, Tina. It’s looking great! Debbie:)
Whew...so many options to consider with this type of folio! Can’t wait to see end result.
This was so inspiring!! thank you so much.
This looks really fun to make. Like you said, what papers to use will be the hard part. This is definately going on my to-do list. Thank you again for another inspirational video.
You amaze me with scissors! I cant cut a straight line to save my life!!! What a scrumptious folio!!!
Thank you so much Cindy x
ooooooo, I love it!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much x
Lol timing Again, just coffee dyed some envelopes!? I covered the floor with old towels and dust sheets. I love making them complicated lol. I have thrown things away but now have fun reworking. Love this folio and looking forward to the next instalment 💖
Oh thank you so much. I am hoping to get some coffee dying done soon if the weather stays good for a while, then I can just do it outside x
Lol definitely preferable to do it outdoors! We have great weather here atm. I'm having trouble with my food gel dying! The colours are very vibrant and modern and while that is good for some things it's not great for the vintage look lol. I tried inking over with vintage photo but not great lol. I will keep trying xx
It's turning out so pretty TIna! Putting this on my list!
Thank you, Tina. I have been waiting for this video! Happy! Happy!
Oh that’s awesome, I hope you enjoy the other couple of videos that are coming up too x
Lookin pretty nice thus far Tina , of course anything you do always looks good.....
Oh thank you so much Beth Ann x
Love it
These envelope thingydodars freak me out
I sit there thinking but never find a plan that I like
Looks fun
One day Ill attempt it
Yes I know you'll all say its easy lol
🤪
Hopefully we all reuse the other side of papers.
What a great video after I watched you finish The Victorian Folio I search & watched this video and understand it better and excited to get started thought I had white envelopes only yellow I'm so disappointed & the white ones would look so much better then yellow being coffee stained, so off for my purchase!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!
It’s so annoying when you think you have something and then you don’t isn’t it? Hope you enjoy making something similar with your new envelopes x
Love your take on a folio, funny how they can differ so much isn’t it. Can’t wait to see what you do next. Had a good time at Hobbycraft, it was a bit scary at first but luckily there weren’t many people in there, managed to get everything I wanted and more besides like you do lol. Also went to a charity shop and got a few books. Hope you had a good day. Xxx
Love this Tina!! I am making one now with some of your digitals! My mom loves the birds you have so I am using your digitals with birds to make her one!
Oh that’s awesome, I am using birds with this one x
I am looking forward to this! You put those envelopes together very quickly! Super impressive! I look forever to just put my envelopes together! LOL! Decorating is much easier with your beautiful digitals!
Wow, loving it already, also your coffee dyed papers and envelopes are amazing. Mine do not turn out like that 🙈 xx
I love making folios too, but they take me a long time because then I just get stuck playing with the components to determine what I want to do. It is fun!
I know what you mean, lol x
Great demo Tina. I've been wanting to do a Folio but I have soooooo many things on my "To Do" I don't know when I'll get to make one. So much to do...so little time. 😁 TFS (Hope all is well with you and the kids.❤)
Oh thank you so much Donna. Yes, that’s the problem isn’t it? We just have so many things we want to do and try, there’s just not enough time for it all x
Going to bed but will watch tomorrow!!
Lol, sleep well x
Love the way you do folios. I purchased that paper collection, not knowing how I would use it because it is so pretty. Going to go check my envelope collection to get ready to make this.
Oh that’s awesome, have fun with your papers and your folio x
Merci beaucoup pour ce bon moment gros bisous ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ma chérie 💖 💖
Oh thank you so much Cathy x
Love how this turned out, I’m going to try this over the weekend.
Oh that’s awesome, have fun x
Tina, I really love this and your papers? ...absolutely gorgeous on this piece. So question... is a folio sort of a JJ made from envelopes? I've never seen anything like this before, but I wanna make one! As always, you are my hero. Love and hugs, MK ❤🤗🌞🌵
Haha you always have a ton a paper on your desk. I would love to see the room and desk now. How about it?
Coming soon......lol x
😊🙋♀️💖💐💐💐
Wonderful as always. When I use envelopes they weaken and tear along the fold of the flap. Do you reinforce that fold? If so, with what? Thanks! Enjoy your videos so much.
I coffee die all year using the stove to dry. Set at 280 degrees and leave in for about 5 minutes
Loved watching this, looking forward to the next part. Could you tell me what glue you use please? Thank you 🙂
Thank you so much. I use Anita’s Tacky glue x
@@shabbydabbydoodah that's great, thanks xx
I love this! Quick question: Is that PVA glue you're using?
🌞❤️🌞🇨🇦🌞
This is great. I love the fact it is made primarily from envelopes. Can I ask what weight of copy paper you use? I am going on the hunt for envelopes now! ☺🤗
I use a combination of 100gsm for the thinner paper and 200gsm for anything thicker, the 200gsm is considerably sturdier. Btw, I have been meaning to message you all weekend, I finally posted your parcel on Thursday, hopefully you should get it by today, it possibly already arrived with you on Saturday x
@@shabbydabbydoodah yes I have received it, thank you so much Tina. Both items are wonderful. My husband was very impressed with your creativity. Our post here is terrible at the moment. My daughter lives in Hampshire and sent me a card and it took 3 weeks to arrive! Thanks for the paper info. I have definitely not been using a great weight. No wonder I can't seem to dye it and end up with paper mache within seconds! 😅🤗💐
@@shabbydabbydoodah so sorry Tina, I meant to add to my comment that all those stamps you sent to me were a lovely surprise 😊 I dont have any Christmas ones so these will be very useful. It was a very kind and thoughtful gesture. Thank you very much indeed. 🥰❤
