Hi Sharon. I used to use Tyvek but found it added more bulk than what I wanted . . . mainly because I had to then cover the Tyvek with decorative paper. I will say that using Designer Dries Clear adhesive, I've not had that problem (yet) and I've been using it for over 10 years. It also helps to use a good and sturdy cardstock like Bazzill.
This video was made in conjunction with a mini album kit published through The Button Farm. It is to show just one small part of the entire kit. The entire kit including step-by-step directions, photos and papers is available through The Button Farm. Thank you.
It's precision glue tool. You can find it here: www.thedoodlebuginc.com/shop/ADHESIVES/p/Precision-Glue-Press-from-My-Sweet-Petunia-MISTI---IN-STOCK-x72457915.htm
Do you mean at the very corner? Usually when I do a corner, it's mitered so that you have just a bit left - but not 1/4". I think 1/4" would leave too much bulk at the corner (but that's just me 😉) When wrapping chipboard with paper, if you miter the corner and leave just a scant (less than 1/8") at the corner, you won't get bulk and it will come out nice and pretty - yet covered. HTH.
1/4" allowance for what please? If you mean the horizontal and vertical allowances for wrapping the edges - no. You have to do that yourself. Actually I use a 1/2" allowance for wrapping book edges. HTH
@@sandrakennedy1465 You can contact The Button Farm at 918 207 9515 and they can perhaps order it for you. If that doesn't work, let me know. So sorry but I'm not in their state so hope you don't mind calling them direct. I'll send them an e-mail and give them a heads up. Thank you.
You are correct that this is a partial video and does not show the signatures. This video is intended to go along with a mini-book project I designed for The Button Farm and only shows a small bit of how to wrap the covers. It is not intended for a full process.
What beautifully clean work! Nice video, thanks.
thank you!
Very nice tutorial, I appreciate your whole effort, and will give this a try. 🙏😊
Thanks so much Iris!
THANKS for this idea…such a nice look and not too complicated! Can[‘t wait to try it! 18:17
I might want to use some self adhesive tyvek tape to support the bending of the pages over and over.

You have a lay flat cover, but where's the binding?

I just bought a brayer for smoothing out the paper on the covers.
Is Art glitter glue more likely to ripple than fabri tac?
Not at all. I've never had that problem with Art Glitter Glue.
Thank you! And what tool are you using for the glue?

Does the memory keeper tool that you use to mark the corners.. leave 1/4 inch allowance?

What is the tool you are using to press over the glued areas?
Not sure what it's called. My friend made it. Very handy!
Where are the written directions you spoke of in the video?
You can find all my written instructions here: buttonfarmclub.com/search?q=nancy%20wethington

I'm sorry but that's not mini at all and you're not even showing how to make the signatures and attach them to the book cover.

@@NancyWethingtonwell you should at least mention it in the title.
Don’t ask me how I know that.
