I worked right along with you... big big thank you!!! It was something I have never done before! So loved zero measurements required, no fancy cutting tools, works on all kinds of paper including light paper! Small project yet, with decorating can keep my focus and expand my creativity for a day or more if I desire. Unlike regular book page pockets, the possibilities for decorating is massive. It is also very interactive once completed. This checked all the boxes for me! Highly suggest for all newbies who want to take their art journals or altered books to the next level... I truly felt I had finally leveled up AND I had everything I needed to create... for cheap to free without having to invest in anything new! I feel inspired to make several. Also plan to make a few to give as greeting cards for Birthdays, Thank you's, Valentines, etc... I have been watching tons of pocket videos, this is the first one that truly was unique. I was getting bored with the same old same old pocket making... so again, thank you so much!
I’m so happy this was helpful! Yay! 😀
I've been wanting to make one of these, and here you are, Barbara. Thank you for sharing the tutorial. 🙂♥️
Hello! Your “mistake” on the square added under the flaps makes folks notice there is something good under the flap, so you did good!
Thank you! ❤️😃👍🏻
Vintage beauty! I like the way you hold things up close to the camera so your subbies can see!! Like the double pocket in the middle section. I put a small memo pad in mine.💕🐬
Thanks JoAnn! Great idea with the pad in the middle! 😃👍🏻
Every time I see one of your videos come up on my screen and I see it's 40min...I'm like oooo time to get cozy and craft! Love how relaxing your videos are. :) The time flies haha
Aaaaw, that’s so sweet! Thanks Jamie! So happy you are crafting with me! ❤️☺️
Thank you so much for the shout out, Barbara! And your piece is so beautiful! I had been a subbie of yours under my name, Judy Sanderson, and now I subbed as Rose Lane Vintage Designs. Thanks again, and keep on inspiring us all with your creations! Blessings! 💕
Thanks so much Judy for the inspiration for this pocket! I love it so much! I’m happy you enjoyed this video! ❤️
3 years later, just what I needed. Thank you.😊
Love all the pockets, might be nice to send out in happy mail too... Lovely 😊😊🧡💜💛
Such lovely pockets. Love the neutral color palette.
Lovely, Barbara, as always
I love this, all of it, just as is! Here is also a thought about the hinge. The trifold can be hinged farther in on the page, you don't have to hinge it on the edge of the signature. Play with it and see what you think. And I think your boo boo with the bottom edge of the half fold writing squares look really cute peeking out. It makes it look like the tuxedo has a double lapel. Very snazzy! Thank you for another great video!💗
Thanks for your tips, Robyn! ❤️
Love this pocket so much! Another way to use it is to glue back side to the page and you will have fun flips to open. Also I usually keep inside center for journaling, then it is less bulky and this is a kind of spot for secret journaling.
Thanks Olga! Those are great ideas! 👍🏻😃❤️
I love this! I send a lot of happy mail and this will be a great place to put ephemera for sending out!
This is awesome! I'm watching and making two of these, pursuing slightly different options in each one. I love the flexibility of being able to turn things inward or outward, etc. This is a very helpful video.
Love it. Even your wee mistake worked in really well.
Thanks Sandra! ❤️
Lovely! I must add this to my list of necessities! Hugs from Ireland.
Haha 👍🏻😃 Hugs to Ireland! ❤️
Beautiful Barbara ❤️
Cute project! And, all of these collage videos you’ve been doing are helpful as I continue practicing. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Awesome! Thanks Lori! 👍🏻😃❤️
As usual... I love this!! I am going to try my hand at this!! You make it look so dang easy!! When I try your projects....not so easy😱 Thanks for sharing❤️💕❤️
Thanks Brenda! You got this! 👍🏻😃
I like the "mistake". It gave it more texture & added to the tuxedo feel. So pretty!
So creative as always! I've had an Instagram account for a few years but only to look at. Tonight I'm going to upload for the first time ever so you can see what I'm doing with the autumn prompt list. Wish me luck!
Thanks Robin, oh that’s awesome!!! Can’t wait to see it, could you tag me on your post so I won’t miss it?
@@49dragonflies It appears I am Instagram challenged. I managed to get a photo of the dog there but I've uploaded journal pages three times and they don't show up. I need a tutorial from friends who do this regularly!
@@49dragonflies I did it! FINALLY! Then I chose the wrong photos of my pages but at least they're there. Still can't upload from my iPhone no matter what I do. Instagram is not my best friend.
RobinfromCA I will go find them YAY! You will get the hang of Instagram 😊
RobinfromCA Hi again, Robin. What is your IG name? I was trying to find your account, thanks!
Your collaging is so pretty!! Thanks, for the lesson. 😻
Love it! Can’t wait to make some. I am in USA...how nice is it that I can sip coffee on a Sunday morning and watch someone on the other side of the world make a beautiful tuxedo pocket?! Thanks!
Thanks Pamela! Isn’t social media great when we can inspire each other around the world! 😃
Stunning !!!!
I love this idea!!! It's a wonderful template even for book pages!!!
So beautiful!
So cool!! I absolutely love this. Talk about intricate and beautiful. Well done!
Aaaaw, thanks Jamie! ❤️
Fabulous & fun Barbara! I’ll definitely be trying this. Do you have any videos of using magnets for closures? I’d love to see how you do this 😊💐✂️
Thanks Lorraine! I’m afraid I don’t 🙄. I have also only started using a couple recently... I will keep it in mind though.
Super cute tuxedo pockets I'm going to love making these something new & and creative just hoping to get the collaging right that's still a process to be worked on. I also love the small master board you did in your tutorial so my attempt is only to make 2 of those lol !! Thanks for sharing both videos!!!!
Thanks April’ so happy this is inspiring! ☺️
I love these trifold tuxedo pockets. Thanks for the tutorial.💝💝
My pleasure Cindy, thanks! ☺️
Love love this!!! Watching your vid while going thru a mag for collage and words.. Stopped, ripped out a page .. rewound you a bit and started folding!!! Have got 2 JJ’s in the planning stage... will deff be using this in both!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! 😻💜
Aw, thanks Lynette! Love that you made these together with me, what fun! 😃👍🏻❤️
Cute! No mistakes - only, variations!
I’m saving this video to make one of these at a later date. Love how it turned out. And I liked how the mistake showed, just another layer. As always TFS Barbara! ❤️
Thanks you Pam! I’m sure you will enjoy playing with this idea as well! 😊❤️
49dragonflies Barbara my thinking cap came on. What if you made like three or four of those pockets. Then on the left flap side sewed into a journal. Each trifold pocket would become the signature for a small journal. That would be so cool. ❤️
Pam Botter that sounds like an interesting idea! 😃
I'm very grateful for the longer video's you do now!!😘 thank you.. really love the small verion, so cute
Thanks Linet! Happy you like them! ☺️
Love this pockets folder. Such a great idea
Always good ideas. To disguise the mistake nothing better than lace
Oh the tiny one is sooooo cute
Just found these instructions for the trifold pocket . Love it as there is room for mistakes and it makes each one so original 😊
Barbara, this is so lovely ..perfectly holds your mini collage boards..Thank you..big hugs xx😍💗💗😊🎼🎼🎼
I'm rewatching your video. I already made several of these (using A4 paper for a 10*15cm journal) and I absolutely love them. I put them in the middle of the signature and then sewed the signature in the journal. You can make neutral ones and decorate once you know what you want to put inside... Thanks for the inspiration!
Very pretty 😊 going to make one of these (maybe even 10) for my journal. Might be good for a Christmas card too..
Thank you! Great idea for a fun Christmas card! You could add photos to the pockets too! 😃
Beautiful 🌷
Perfect ideas from you to me. Thank you Robin from California USA
Hi, I’m a Robin from Southern California.
So lovely, Barbara! I’m making these! Thank you! Erica❤
Deine Videos sind immer so insperierend 💚 freue mich das ich jetzt Urlaub habe und viel basteln kann 🙏🍁
Vielen Dank Bianca! Ich wünsch dir einen entspannten Bastel-Urlaub! 😊
Thanks for sharing such a fun project 😍🌴
That tuxedo pocket turned out super cute. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing with us!
Thanks Deidra! ❤️
Delighted to have found yout channel and website today!
I love how the key worked out!! I will be trying this one, of course. Edit to add....swoon...the leafy/neutral paper is perfect! Edit 2....I like the peeking paper...
I might add...some of us don't know A4 or sizes like that as well as 8 1/2 x 11 or inches sizes. I just found you today and love this method.
I love seeing all the projects you come up with. I will use this for a Valentine. Oh boy. MWAH-MWAH
Yay! Super fun project and loved all the special touches with your collages.
Oh this is so gorgeous, I love it. I felt for you when you were pulling the paper off and it began to tear, nicely saved by just matching the mistake on the other side. Lovely relaxing video as always, tfs x
Jaja thanks Tina! I guess we have all been through these things! Thankfully there is always a way to save a project, right?! 😃
Another lovely project!! You could add your pocket to the back cover of you journal... ☺️ just a small suggestion...
Thanks Isobel! Will keep it in mind! 👍🏻😃
Thanks Barbara. This looks like fun!
It is! 😃
Love this idea Barbara, a much needed video today as I’m cosied up under a blanket with a cold, feeling sorry for myself!!! Thank you as always xxx💕
Thanks Susie! I’m happy my video kept your spirits up! Sending hugs and hope you feel better soon! ❤️
Such a nice pocket folder! I think that I’m going to make one with Christmas paper and use a Christmas music sheet. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! That sounds like a wonderful idea! 👍🏻😃
This is lots of fun! Bulk and all it turned out wonderfully!
Thanks Ardella! ❤️
Love this project.
Love ❤️ this. Great ideas Barbara. Hugs 🤗 DarvaDee USA 🇺🇸
These pockets do lend themselves to become bulky very easily. But they are a joy for sure🥰😘😘
Love this, have made my sample and on to the real thing, thank you so much for sharing.
Hugs from Australia.
Wonderful project Barbara again 💕👍💕 I love it, not too hard and with great result. I was talking to you while watching 😁🤣😁 just fold that piece of triangle back, don't cut it..... when you were doing the triangle pocket with the music paper. Guess I have to speak up louder next time 😉😉😉 but seriously, wonderful project thank you for the inspiration sweetie
Thank you sweetie! Too bad I couldn’t hear you! 🙄. Sending hugs! ❤️
Hi Barbara! I made a large one of these for my last journal and they really are so much fun to decorate! I love your little one, have to try that tomorrow. TFS ❤💕
Thanks Paula! I think they are fun in any size! ☺️
This was perfect for an addition to my journal!!
Hey barbara!How are you DOING?I wasn’t able to catch up on Your videos since my aunt took me to a bookbinding Workshop here,and i had a great time in there!But i am finally back to have some potato chips and watch YOU create beaitiful vintage masterpieces!BTW,i know you are really talented and hardworking crafter/journal maker,but have you ever made a softcover journal or experienced using one? Bc i have been seeing johanna clough have been posting a couple of videos talking about her softcover journals, and i was really interested in that topic.But i Didn't really find much information by searching, and i thought commenting you about it,so you may help;But i think it will be so awesome if you do a video about it!
~loved your video about today 's topic,the end result turned out awesame!
Please,do a video about it!
Hugs and loves and best wishe,
Alvina from nothing to say
♥♥♦♥♥♦♥♥♦
😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚😚
*Sorry about my broken English😬😬😬 i am still Learning
Thank you so much for your kind feedback Alvina! ☺️ how amazing you got to do a bookbinding workshop! 👍🏻😃. I actually haven’t made a soft xo we for years. I prefer the hard covers, but who knows, maybe I will do one for a change, but not for my current journal, sorry. Have you searched for it on CZcams?
Hello Love ❤ everything is so beautiful. Have a blessed day. Thank you kindly
I know you called it a tuxedo pocket but with the paper selection you made it reminds me of a kimono pocket.
Haha I see what you mean! I should do that version with my Japanese papers! 😃
I really like these pockets. Like you demonstrated, there are so many options--they can be bulky or thinner, and you can stuff them full, or not. I made two while watching you that will go into two different Christmas journals I'm working on. Thanks for the always excellent videos!
Loved the new idea! Thanks so much, I really enjoy your collaging!😻
Thanks Laurie! ❤️
Thank you! I love it!! Can’t wait to make it … have a lovely day.❤
This just popped up and I’ve already started four of these. Looking forward to decorating. I love your style. Thanks for the inspiration.
Great video, love the small version, so cute!!
great little folder and so easy , thank you x
Great going! Carol from California
Great video. I have a small journal will make one to fit that and also the big for the journal I have been doing along with you. Thank you.🥰😊💕
Thanks Margaret! That sounds like a great plan! Enjoy! 😃
Love this! TFS ❤️
This is gorgeous! Love it and love the smaller one, too. Your tutorial style is great and easy to follow! TFS. I did. God bless and stay safe.
Thanks Evelyn, happy you enjoy my tutorials! 😊
These are fun. Than you for sharing.
I think you illustrated the making of this project better than the Rose lady....I’ve seen Angela’s, too, she explains the project well, too. Thanks for sharing..always enjoy your tutorials.....😻
Thanks so much! ❤️
Really enjoy your videos 😍 TFS🤗
Its gorgeous🤩🤩...loved this one and also the little one❤ and I will definitely give it a try...thanks for sharing this...l am blessed to find your channel😊
Thanks again Shimah! Happy you still enjoy my videos! ☺️
BEAUTIFUL little thing! Love it :-)
What an awesome folio and hoping my is half as pretty!!
You can do it! ❤️
Thank you, this was so fun! Love how it turned out. Thanks for sharing.
If you fold your corner pockets in instead of cutting them off at the diagonal, it would give you a stronger pocket edge. Just a thought
Great tips, thank you! ❤️👍🏻
Oooh, this is such a good idea! I'm using actual antique music, and it's already super thin. Having a reinforced edge will really help keep it from tearing, especially since it's a functional ite. Taking things out and putting them back in will take a toll. I think I'll also fold the top down and glue it, too.
My heart leaps with joy everytime I see your video. Thank you so much Barbara. Youve been such an inspiration to me. Can't wait to try this. ⚘🦋
Aaaaw, you are very sweet! Thank you so much Jules! ❤️
Beautiful pocket,
That is the coolest tag!
Thank You!! Another beauty!!💜💜
This is a lot of fun to make TFS
Love these I am going to try and make one.
Super great ideas. I'm going to have to try this out!
Thanks! I hope you have fun with this! 😃❤️
