I love paper crafting. I’ve tried other methods of creating, but paper crafting, sewing, and miniatures are my preference. Paper and fabric allow for many personal touches. Miniatures are becoming harder for me as my vision fades. I frequently depend on a wheelchair to get around and can paper craft from anywhere with a little pre-planning.
@norabaker1591 I always make a template too, sometimes even more than one until I get the measurements right. I always write measurements down as I go, so that I don't forget. I hope that helps! Thanks for watching!❤
@@RedQueensJubileeClubThat's so nice! I agree, paper crafting is very portable! I have a junk journal style traveler's notebook that I take on camping trips so that I can scrapbook/journal each day!❤
I just happened across your video by chance. I love paper crafts! Craft projects like this one are my favorite: fun to make, and also very useful. Thanks for this great idea! I will definitely be back, checking out more of your videos, and looking forward to a new one each Wednesday. ☺
This is so sweet and simple! I love it! Thanks for sharing this low-tech project. I always wind up having so many supplies and tools around me when I finish greeting cards. It can be exhausting knowing I have to put everything back where it belongs...made more difficult since I haven't finished organizing my art space. I am going to enjoy this project knowing you have made a way for my sanity to be intact at the end. May God bless you, your mom, and your cousin. You are making a difference in so many lives and our future as a community of hopeful people. ❤️🐧🩵
I haven't done paper crafting and probably close to 20 years but I'm getting back around to it thanks to a friend of mine who just passed me all of her craft supplies and the majority of it is paper crafting. So this video is right on time thank you
I absolutely love this craft. This is the first time I've seen an instructional video on paper crafting. I'm so excited to learn about this and you give great instructions. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. You are so precise in your projects and I love that. I'm sure you are the same way in the salon. I too, was a hairdresser but am now retired. I loved cutting hair and would still be working but I'm 76 now and have rheumatoid arthritis.
Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear you liked the video! You're right, I try to be precise when doing hair also. How many years did you do hair? I'm on my 26th year! Time flies!😃
"I think I'll just stick with the velcro" 😊 seriously though you're sp precise 👍 I love that you kept Us newbies in mind and yet it's so meticulous; idk if I'll be able to make this just yet 😏 I would like that glitter glue & a score board.
Great idea!! My great niece is going away to college. I'm going to make a couple of these but I'm not going to glue the tablet down. Instead I'm just going to use clips so she can change the tablet out and still have the pretty cover. Thanks for the great idea!!
Thank you so much Jess. I've been so interested in getting started learning to paper craft but after watching several videos recently, I was very discouraged. They done pretty things but as a very new beginner, I had trouble following along. I LOVE your instructions & now am once again excited to begin. I think this craft is adorable & doable 💕. Again, thank you for breaking it all down so nicely 💖💖💖. Now to get me a few things to start with, look out stores & or Amazon, thanks to Jess, I'm coming for ya!😊
Hi Carla! I'm so glad you found this helpful! I really love papercrafting, so I'm excited to share more of it! You can do so much with just a paper trimmer and a score board! Thanks for watching!😃
I’m just starting my paper crafting journey.. I realized all of the scrapbook paper and card stock I had..I zipped to Michael’s and purchased score board and bone tool..and glue..I had a ton of hot glue..lol I watched this project and down the rabbit hole I go! Thank you! I look forward to more paper crafts!
Have never tried paper crafting. I like this idea. Could you share a video explaining the most common tools and how to use them, please? This would be helpful for newbies.
Love this video. Great job of explaining how you made this project. I really appreciate the gifting ideas. This is especially thoughtful for teachers. Have just subscribed to your channel so I am eager to see your other videos.
I'm so glad I ran across your channel. I love trying everything once or twice and have a whole art store in my tiny 585 sq ft retirement apartment - I keep saying if I loose either one of my neighbors and will use this apartment as my craft room with all my supplies identified by just a 360° twirl (as if). I know I have most supplies but one thing, "art glitter glue" and many artists use it. I hope you or someone answer my question! I am homebound so I order on-line. What exactly is the glitter glue?? Whenever an artist I'm watching uses it they use it in a place where glitter would never be noticed. What am I missing?? School starts next week and I thought it would be a nice "Be My Friend" gift for my granddaughter to give to her classmates. You did a great tutorial, thank you for that!!😊
I love to paper craft but got away from it when I starting doing the other DYIS. But I have been thinking about going back to some paper crafts. So I have enjoyed this segment today and would love to see other types of things you may do, I was doing card making more before. But anything to do with paper would be lovely. I’m like you, I have a lot of paper I need to use up and some cutters to use. Thanks for your video today and see ya next time…❤BonniefromTX
Hi there! Thanks for the sub! I don't do a lot of junk Journaling, however I do have a junk journal style traveler's notebook that I use when we go camping!
Hi there! To my grandkids I’m known as Gramma LaLa! So I was immediately attracted to your channel. - new subscriber - will have to go back and watch your older videos
I love this! I needed something inexpensive to give friends for Christmas and this is perfect!! I don't have the tools you used though, is there something I can use instead? Like for scoring etc.
I love this idea! I think I'd add a "pocket" to the area for the notepad too so once the notepad is empty they could slide a new notepad in. Can you tell its hard for me to throw away something handmade? :-) Could you share where you found the velcro dots?
I have made them so the notepad can be replaced. However, because the cover is just cardstock, I have found that by the time I get to the end of the notepad, the cover has been pretty worn out, so that's why I just Glue the notepad down. I've never tried making a pen holder though, that gives me something to think about!😃
Great idea and video !! Just wondering 1. how you could make the note pad replaceable to keep the same cover? Also, personally I like to have a pen or pencil with my pad, the pad doesn't do if I loose or forget a writing tool 😢 😊. 2. How could you incorporate a pen/pencil holder? Would love to see how you would make this cover with these two features. I am so new at this the only thing I have, that you used, is a pair of scissors 😅 but you and your video makes me want to do it. Keep making well explained videos you're great !!! Thank you so much for sharing. God Bless
Thank you so much! I have made the notepad replaceable, but since the cover is just cardstock, it tends to wear out by the time I get to the end of the notepad. I'm going to have put some thought into how to add a pen holder!😃
It's a mini spatula that you typically use for applying vinyl decals made from a cricut or other cutting machine. You can find them at the Dollar Tree!
Why do your teachers need school supplies? You made a lovely gift, but I just wondered why they'd need pencils etc? Surely the teacher has her own and all children have their own too? I love the gift idea and the notepad cover, the question is just genuine curiosity. 🤗
@@GlueLala Oh wow! That's awful! Why should teachers have to provide the stuff out of their own money? That's not good enough! Our schools in the UK have all the stationery and art supplies that's needed. Occasionally if it's a cookery class, then children may be given a note to give to their parents, telling them they need to bring a (£) pound or two for next week's class, something like that. But that's only because obviously schools don't stock fresh ingredients. It's a lovely gift idea that you made for teachers, and I'm sure they are extremely grateful, but at the same time it shouldn't be necessary to make up for the lack of sufficient government funding. Especially a rich country like AMERICA for goodness sake. The world is falling apart lately i think. These last couple of years have been so weird you couldn't make it up! Our government's are funding bullsh!t causes, but not ones the people need.

I do appreciate a quality neat crafter! 🤗) and so I have subscribed to see what more delights you have made. From Tami, East Sussex, South East Coast of England. 😘 xxxxx
We always have kids without supplies and we supply them our selves if parents can't afford them. Some generous parents send extras so that no one has to go without. You'd be amazed at how much $$ teachers spend out of pocket for the kids in their class. All donations are very welcomed.
@@marilynnirkkola3483 I understand kid's themselves not having supplies... Well, the odd one or two occasionally, not as a regular occurrence. But I think it's awful that the teachers have to pay for the things the child needs to learn. They pay for the building right? Electrics, water, gas, heating, cooling, maintenance, there's books in the library, desks, chairs, gym equipment etc. If sports teachers don't have to buy balls, whistles, or baseball bats (for example) why should academic teachers have to fund their supplies? 😘
@@tamielizabethallaway2413 …..we don't have to, we chose to. In every classroom there are children from poor families who struggle to get food on the table let alone buy school supplies. At one time they were provided by the school…budget cuts changed all that. I kept snacks in a drawer for kids without recess snacks. I cut up fruit on Friday afternoon and the kids enjoyed the treat. For some kids fruit is an expensive luxury. I bought hats, mitts for kids without..started a knitting group of parents who knitted hats etc for kids without. I've lost track of how much I spent out of pocket to make sure my kids in my room have what they need to be able to learn…you can't teach a student who’s hungry or cold. I taught 5-7 year olds. A lot of parents are very generous in helping as well.
I'm so excited to start sharing some of my papercraft ideas with you! Do you like to papercraft?
I have a difficult time with measuring!do you have any suggestions I usually make a paper sample

Thank you for the measurements in inches. I like making these little pad covers. The idea for putting it in a little box for a teacher is wonderful.

That's such a nice way to honor your friend, by using her supplies to do something you both love! Hugs to you my friend ❤️
This is such a neat idea and easy to reproduce even if we don’t have the items here in Germany. Tfs! Hugs from Germany 🇩🇪
That's so nice, thanks so much! Hugs from the USA❤️🇺🇸❤️

Yay!! Thank you so much!😃

That's so nice! Using clips is a great idea!😃
I was thinking of some kind of pocket that would hold the notebook. That way you can replace it or use it for storage after the paper is gone
Love this idea, thanks for sharing. Keep the paper crafting ideas coming please.
Thanks so much!❤️
I love this.
love paper crafting---cardmaking

The best instructions for the Jr pads. Thank you
Very cool idea. ❤
I truly love this! Thank you for sharing! I appreciate the clear and concise directions. ❤
I love paper crafting but wish I had more people to give them out.
I give them to people I meet in public. Cashiers,receptionist,teachers, etc.. You could go to a park office and give one to all the employees.
Nursing homes and various organizations are always looking for gift donations.
Very nice workmanship.

I love this, what a great idea! Where have you found flat Velcro dots? Every time I find them, they are so thick and bulky! TFS, Leslie
I found these at Joann Fabrics, the are the Velcro brand. 😃

Yes they do sell the 5 by 8 at dollar tree. I brought 8 of then this week. I make custom owire notebooks with them
New to your channel want yo learn to add to my gift baskets Diy
What tool are you using to cut the score tape?
It's a mini spatula that you typically use for applying vinyl decals made from a cricut or other cutting machine. You can find them at the Dollar Tree!
I’m going to make these for a craft fair. How much should I ask for them?
I think it really depends on the time you put into them and what it cost you to make them, but I would say minimum $5.00
Thank you. Love your videos!!
Any ideas on birthday cards? They are so pricey now.
How much do you think would be a good price to sell these at a craft fair?
I came to see if anyone asked this lol I would like to know too

@@GlueLala Oh wow! That's awful! Why should teachers have to provide the stuff out of their own money? That's not good enough!
Our schools in the UK have all the stationery and art supplies that's needed.

Very nice, but so much measuring !
Yeah, papercrafting is all about measuring!😃
