Tracey, I work in a nursing home and I have a resident who watches you faithfully and she turned me on to you. We love watching you and have made several of your mini books and flowers too. May God bless you always! We appreciate so much your wonderful ideas and especially your calm voice. Hugs!
Awesome! Thank you so much for watching. I would love to send both of you a card. Thanks also for taking care of our seniors. You are a blessing. You can email me the address at admin@mindlesscrafting.com
Cute as always! I’ve never seen your paper in 8x11. Only 12x12! Thanks for sharing.
You're incredible. I'm very new to any of the computer stuff. But you have fantastic ideas. Your voice is calming and relaxing. I have spent more time cleaning my craft room than crafting. Now because of you, I am enjoying crafting. I like how you use what you have. I love that you include Cinnamon! more or less, Ha ha ha And your easy approach, kind words. I am 62 years old and live alone. You've become my crafting friend. You're my Anxiety Medicine! Keep it up . Thank you for considering those of us who arn't professional but Pretty darn good! lol
Thank you so much for making me a part of your day. Your kind words are greatly appreciated. I love what I do and Crafting has allowed me to connect with other. Thanks again. Tracey❤
She did that ----stiching ---- instantly!
Hello, oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh!! Squeel!! I'm fan girling here!! you are my new most favorite crafter!!! 😁🤗👏🤩🧡🦍🐅🦌🐘🐿🐻🕊🦅🦉🐢🦔🏷🔖✉✏✒🖋🖊🖌🖍📁✂📎🧸🧷
Awww! Thanks...I am so honored!😍
I love these little books. I learned to fold a slightly different way and have given them to people for just a little gift. However, you have inspired me to do more. I wanted to take a moment to compliment you on your craftsmanship as it makes such a difference in my opinion. I had to laugh a bit when you got into the zone and did more than you anticipated. Thanks for doing that.
Thanks for showing how to make these. 8 1/2 x 11 paper is everywhere; now I can make something no matter where I go, with just scissors and glue. Love it!
I love these little books... I need to get started on a few of them...maybe complete a couple of them and leave a couple blank until I feel like making more...oh, and all those DT stickers, I pick them up every time I go to DT...
Absolutely adorable - and each one is a piece of original art!
I have been watching your videos for the past month. You are an amazing woman!!! Tracy, you have inspired me to use what I have to make pretty things. Just love this mini-book. THANK YOU
I'm so glad to here that. Thank you so much for watching my crafty friend.❤
Love it Tracey! So cute!
I recently just found your channel and I must say I love it. I have been doing crafts, sewing, quilting, painting, embroidery, cooking and so much more since I was a young girl. My grandmother taught me so much as well as my Grandfather taught me about the outdoors, gardening and always encouraged my love for animals. I love learning new things. I recently made several flowers from recycled envelopes. They were absolutely adorable. I want to also thank you for sharing such wonderful ideas as well as your awesome talent. Hope you have a wonderful day!!! May God Bless You Abundantly!!!
Love your cute little mini books. Thanks for sharing. Blessings.❤️❤️❤️

+Karyn Ahern Hi Karyn❤Thank you so much.❤
+GiftBasketAppeal, you are very welcome
💜💜
I love THESE .....:)
Thank you Gloria!!! :)
Very nice
I just found you! Love to watch you create. Where do you find the encouraging word/tags?
Very Nice
I had an idea of another one while watching this vid and the 12×12 mini book...you have probably already thought of it and may even have a vid on it...use 6×6 mini-mini album that could be used as ornaments...
Might I suggest you lay your bottle of art glitter glue on its side every time you put it down then the glue will already be near the tip. It won't drip out because the tip is so small. Just a thought. Love the video, making a mini book now. tfs Bless you!
Tfs
Love it and those tags where did you get them at???
+Melissa Sandoval hi Melissa...Thank you. I made the tags from cereal boxes. I put the tutorial link in the description box. ✂🍁✂
As always you’ve created something special!!! Thanks for being you and letting you shine! I have a question... Is this Colorbok paper a card stock thickness or is it just regular paper thickness? I couldn’t tell. I’ve started making one and just used a sheet that I had purchased at Michael’s separately. Thanks again!!!
+D. Edwards Thank you so much. It is more of a cardstock/Scrapbook paper thickness without being too hard to bend. Thanks for watching ❤have a wonderful crafty weekend! ❤Tracey
Thanks for the quick reply! :)
Just curious if you are ever going to venture into folio albums. You simply would be the best Teacher!!!
Thanks. It's not something on my list, but now that you mention it I'll have to see what it is.
is Elmers glue sticks strong enough to hold the paper together?
I [ike this size page... have you tried gluing a second folded page to it to double number of book pages?
Thank you Tracey for sending me back to this sight. I don't know if it's because I'm 75 years old. that I can not remember how to do this. HAY, positive thinking, I'm 75!! right? Can you tell me how to save this so I don't have this problem again? Thank you once again.
Quick Question - was this double sided more like cardstock weight? I'm having trouble finding double sided paper I like to do this for Halloween. thanks
Yes it is like cardstock. This would be great for Halloween.
I'm going to teach this size at our September Crop...and supply the paper as well as some embellishments. A make-and-take....Thanks for the inspiration!
Can you use 12x12 paper and not have so many pages as your demonstration had with the 12x12?
+Camille White-Harrell I already did the 12x12 and it shows the entire process.
How do you , know what side to glue
Start with the cover and it will all come together. The spine will start to take shape. Look carefully around 5:28 of the video. I hope that helps.
what size are your tags
+Ozzie Muniz 3.5" x 2.25"
I wish there where here a dollar tree
You should make then I to pockets. Also you need to talk faster.
I need to just be me. I'm not a fast talker! Love ya!
