Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing my version of the Square Flip Book found in August 2025 Card Kit. I am super excited to share with you a different version you can create. I hope you enjoy the video tutorial. Check out the links below to get your Card, Tag, and More Kit. I also have a link to the cute chipboard stamps down below for you.


August 2025 Card, Tag and More Kit                                  Chipboard Tickets

         

      




To start out place magnets inside the inner flap to the top and bottom. 
****View video tutorial for details*****


Next cover the oval portion of the frame and then glue the oval back inside the frame. 


After the frame dries adhere only the top portion of the frame to the bottom of the flap. (as seen below)
****View video tutorial for details*****


Next I added ephemera to the cover that comes in the kit. I also used some chipboard tickets (link above) from the Tres Jolie Shop on top of the paper tickets. I really like how this turned out. 


When you get your Flip Book in the Card Kit, there is an accordion piece. I decided to cut this in half and adhere hinges on the back of  each piece. 
To add a hinge take a 1 inch piece of white cardstock, score at 1/2 inch. Then adhere the folded portion to the fold of the card piece (as shown below) cut off excess. Now do the same to other half of the accordion we cut. 


Now you should have a 1/2 inch flap, as shown below. Adhesive to outside of this flap. 


Adhere on in the middle portion of the flip book. Now do this with the other card part by adhering the 1/2inch hinge to the fold. ****View video tutorial for details*****


Now you should have a double flaps as shown below. You can add photos on these or use then for journaling. For more details you can view the video tutorial if needed. 
Now you can decorate, measure your book pages and cut out your pattern papers. I a few photos below to help with inspiration. You can always watch my video tutorial.


Below is the first opening of the book. 


This portion is the middle part of the book with the side flaps opened.


Here is the inside middle part with the two flaps we created hinges for on either side. 


Here is a photo of the book opened. The middle page is the pocket I recreated using the  instruction from the booklet in that comes with the Flip Book. The left and right side are photo mats along with the flower ephemera and sentiments.  The bottom page I used a little ephemera flower as a tuck spot. 



Here is the cover all decorated using the chipboard frame along with the chipboard tickets. 


I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial. I had a great time created this Square Flip Book and sharing another way you can create this book to hold your special photos.

Beautiful & Simple Layouts for Tres Jolie

 Hi all, 

Today I wanted to share two beautiful & simple layouts I created using the July 2025 Scrapbook Kit. This kit has some beautiful papers, lovely lace and some beautiful flowers along with some nice resin pieces to make your layouts or projects pop. I used copic markers to color in my resin pieces. I hope you enjoy the step by step tutorial and you can refer to the video tutorial for more details. 



July 2025 Scrapbook Kit


PAGE #1
To start the first page layout adhere down part of the lace across the middle of your pattern paper from the Scrapbook Kit. 


Next cut out your photo mats and background mats. 
Small Photo Mats (cream cardstock) - Cut 2 @ 4x4 inches
Small Back mats (pattern paper) - Cut at 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches
Large Photo Mat - Cut @ 6x4 inches
Large Back mat (pattern paper) - 6 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches
Adhere the mats down once you have them all put together. (as shown below)
***view video tutorial for more details***


Next I colored the resin pieces from the Scrapbook Kit using Copic markers. I also used sentiments in the upper right side and the beautiful butterflies are from the July 2025 Mixed Media Kit.
***view video tutorial for more details***



PAGE #2

To start page two, Cut a piece of pattern paper that is 2 1/2 x 12 inches, tear and ink the edges. Then cut your photo mats. 
Small Photo Mats (cream cardstock) - Cut 1 @ 4x4 inches
Small Back mats (pattern paper) - Cut 1 @ 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 inches
Large Photo Mat - Cut @ 3 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches
Large Back mat (pattern paper) - 6 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches



Next place some double adhesive on the left side edge of the pattern paper and then adhere down the lace. 


Next slide the torn piece we inked under the lace and adhere this piece down. 


Adhere your mats together and layout and start decorating. I did use the remaining butterflies from the July 2025 Mixed Media Kit along with the flowers. I tucked in the resin clock I colored unto the flowers down on the right hand side. 
******For more details you view the video tutorial*************



Here is Page 1 finished. I did add some gold foil photo corner to the mats, I used my photo corner punch. 

Here is Page 2. I added some sentiments on either side of the small butterfly and added the photo corners to each photo mat. 



I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial. I just love these two Beautiful Scrapbook Pages they both  turned out so pretty and they are so simple. We used just about everything from the July 2025 Scrapbook Kit and only scraps left over. So with this Scrapbook Kit we created 4 Layouts this month. Two interactive pages and two simple pages. I hope you get a chance to create some pages to hold your special memories.

Beautiful Soulflower Tags for Tres Jolie

Good Morning Crafty Peeps,

For today's project we are creating 3 beautiful Tags using the July 2025 Card, Tag and More Kit as well as the stencil from the Mixed Media Kit and a few other items from past kits. If these are still available I will have it linked so all you have to do is click on the words and it will go straight over to the store. I also have the step by step tutorial below but you can always view the video tutorial as well for more details.  Let's get started. 


July 2025 Card, Tag and More Kit



Tag #1

To begin I used one of the Cloud Chipboard Words. I padded it down with versamark and then dabbed gold perfect pearls on top. I then heat set it, padded it down again in versamark then sprinkled the WOW embossing powder down and heat set it. It looks so pretty. 


Here is what it looks like up close once the chipboard is done. 


Next I covered my tag chipboard with pattern paper from the Card Kit and fussy cut out this beautiful swing. 


I added foam tape behind the swing and I added a stamp down below using versamark and dabbed on some of the gold perfect pearls on top of it and heart set it. 


Next I added the Relax Cloud Word on top with ribbon. Fussy cut the flowers and butterfly from the cut part sheets and adhered them down on either side of the sentiment. 



Tag #2

To start I painted the Swirl Butterfly Chipboard piece from the Card Kit using the raspberry paint from June 2025 Mixed Media Kit. and used paint from my stash. 



Next I added glue to the chipboard. 


Covered the chipboard with the pattern paper and added one of the doilies on the right side and cut off the excess. I then cut some of the chipboard pieces off and adhered down the larger piece to the tag. 


Next I fussy cut out this cut little girl from the cut apart sheet and added foam tape behind her, double layered, and adhered her down next to the chipboard piece. I then cut out the heart balloons, placing foam tape behind them. I used some twine from my stash as strings for the balloons and tucked the strings behind her to make it look like she is holding them. I also used some sentiments from a past kit along with flat back pearls and a butterfly from the cut apart sheet with the lace from the July 2025 Card Kit. *******For more details please view Video Tutorial******



Tag #3

To start Tag #3 I used the raspberry paint from June 2025 Mixed Media Kit, painted the entire front of the tag with this beautiful paint. 


Once it was dry I added on a doily to the bottom left corner and the top right corner. 


Next I used the July 2025 Mixed Media stencil along with the stencil butter around the tag. 
***View video tutorial for more details***


Here is what it looks like once I was done adding the stencil butter to the tag. 
I then used glue down below on the doily to adhere down a paper flower. 


After adding the flower, which is like a pocket to tuck other embellishments inside, I adhered down the small chipboard pieces we had cut off previously. I also used a small piece of the flower I cut off as excess from the larger piece and adhered it up top in the right hand corner. 


Here is the finished tag. I added a few items that I cut out from the cut apart sheet. I added the violin and the clock, tucked in another one of the small chipboard pieces behind the clock added the envelope and flower. I also added some ribbon and lace above to have a finished look. 


Here are all three tags finished. 



I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial and are inspired to create a few Large Tags to go with gifts or for fun using the July 2025 Card, Tag, and More Kit. I had fun creating these and love using a variety of items from the kits to create such beautiful projects.

Build Your Wings Mixed Media Canvas for Tres Jolie

 Good Morning Crafty Friends, 

I have a fun and simple canvas design for you today. We are using the July 2025 Mixed Media Kit. Creating this canvas was so relaxing, definitely had fun playing around with the mixed media products. I have a step by step down below as well as the video tutorial which has some bonus tips inside. Have fun and enjoy. Links are down below. 




July 2025 Mixed Media Kit



To get started I used a paint brush to place down my mod Podge only on half of the canvas at a time. Be sure to burnish down once you have one side done and then the other side. 


After adhering on the rice paper place a little bit of water on the edges of the excess to tear off the rice paper. **view video tutorial**


Next add some clear gesso down on the rice paper to prepare for the Jewel effect paste from the Mixed Media Kit. 


So to add a bit of fun I cut a little piece of cheesecloth and placed it in a small cut with a bit of gold perfect pearls and water. Mix a little and set aside for 1-2 minutes. 


Next take out the cheesecloth and airdry or you can use your heat tool to dry quickly. 


Next I adhered down the cheesecloth around the edges and up onto the canvas area. 
**view video tutorial for more details**


After adhering down the cheesecloth I then used the stencil and Tiger's eye stones Jewel Effect Paste to add a bit of texture to the canvas. 


I decided use the torn off portion from the rice paper and adhere to a paper frame from May 2025 Scrapbook Kit. These frames are amazing. 


Here is the finished canvas I added the mechanical Butterflies from the MM Kit and I used some flowers along with some sentiments from the Finnabair Sentiment Booklet from a previous kit. 



I hope you enjoyed today's step by step tutorial and are inspired to create a Mixed Media Canvas from the July 2025 Mixed Media Kit. I like the spent playing with the kits as you can be as creative as you want to be. I would love to see what you create with this Mixed Media Kit or anything you have created.
