    I LOVE these! At first I thought, “Oh, no! I don’t have file folders with flaps.” But then you showed us how to make them and it looks so easy! You amaze me with your ability to look at something that has been manufactured and you figure out how to make it yourself.
    Thank you! Blessings to you and yours. ❤

    Each month, you should pick one out and go all out. Decorate them by adding pages, stamps, and embellishments. Love how they all turned out!

    This was a glorious tutorial and it's so lovely to be called "luvvies". Although I'm a very raw beginner I will go out on a limb and say that I would LOVE to see a tutorial on the large satchel, even if only as a big project to aim for later on. Perhaps you could do it on 2 or 3 parts if necessary.

    Great make. BTW sizzix come up with paper like Tim holtz in A4. You can see 'take2Tuesday' with Stacey Park. Also that Jacquard stamps are really good. Might not be our color yet. I am still pushing her to come up with more grungy-er color.

    Instead of Halloween... The black folder looks more Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde to me. I don't know if that a American thing or not.....

    Hello Margreth,
    Wow girl you went town making these. That was a lot. I’ve got to make one or two or three for my journals. I did look these up when you showed them in your haul and Amazon here has them. But not the green you did Gunther in. Guess I can make my own from the green folders I already have. See ya Sunday can’t wait.

    I was wracking my brain on what I'd use to build the 3 flap file folder. Turns out that the really thick brown paper that the sky light builders used to cover our hardwood floor and left a large section of the roll (bcoz I saw potential and asked them to lol) is the perfect thing for this. The role is 3 ft tall by some 3-4 ft long. That should be plenty to build me some folders. I was struggling and felt a bit lost with the other video where you used the pre-made folder/decorated it. You kindly shared the link to this video and I am a happy camper :) Your style is EXACTLY my style, thank you for your laughter, amazing creativity and most of all, your generosity!!! Love that you talk to yourself like I do lol.

  • @ValsCraftsCreations

    Probably up until recently because computers can hold files, file folders were the thing in businesses. I worked in a bank, a business, and as a classroom teacher. We used file folders, hanging file folders, pocket folders, file pockets and pressboard folders with fasteners. I find them at Goodwill/Thrift stores. l have a supply, but I see you took paper, scored it, and made it look like a file folder. Clever! All you showed was way cool! And never hurry! 🤣

    Fun with three flap file folders on a Friday in February. I love that you have shown us how to make our own. The blue one is my favourite, just because of the colour😊. I have some of Mr Tim Holtz 12x12 Kraft card from years ago, so I may make a really grungy one. TFS❤

    @kimhanback1302 7 місяців тому +1

    Thank you so much for this video. I just love these little file folders. You could use these in a journal instead of always using pockets. At least I'm going to use a couple of them in my Bee Journal that I am making for my friend's birthday.

    I love these 3 flap folders. I haven't been able to find this brand here in the states yet. But Walmart has something similar. I have some file folders without the extra flaps as well. I'm excited for this series because I've seen some of the amazing projects you've made with these and I'm excited to see what you come up with!

  • @tracytanasiychuk8253

    Loved your video. Not only did I make this style file folder along with you, it became a full-on, road trip down memory lane! I loved Wham and still remain where I was when I first heard the song and saw the video for it. I had never seen a three flap version of this type, and I've seen a lot of file folders! These are great and would be awesome to make and put stationery in for gifts.

    Oh wow - I love these!!! An idea... How about kraft colored A3 paper or whatever size you want...heavily grunged up in Tim Holtz distress inks and/or oxides? Your very own DIY Tim Holtz inspired colored kraft paper like those last file folders. You can sand it and distress it just like his paper - but more variety of sizes.
