  • Hello! This is part 1 of a series creating a Christmas Folio from a file folder.. I hope you will enjoy following along! In this part we will construct the base and cut out all the pieces for the folio. I will explain how it will all come together.
    You can see a Flip Through of a Christmas Folio I created for ‪@thegraphicsfairy‬ a few years ago by clicking the link below. We will be creating this same folio except I will be changing it up a bit with some new papers. I will be using papers from my Christmas digital kits in my Etsy shop.. you can find them at the link below.
    You can use any papers and trims you like to create one of your own!

    I have really been enjoying this so far. I have my sample base made and spent the rest of my craft time tea-dying👌 love the color of the folders. Thank you Heather for taking us through the steps so clearly. Have a blessed and beautiful day🧡🍂🤎

    Thank you for giving measurements and providing clear instructions for how to assemble this folio. I have watched several tutorials on this and between the scoreboard and flipping and flopping of the file folder I become totally confused. I think I might be successful with your method and can’t wait to see more.❤. Sending best wishes for a lovely day from California.

    Thank you so much for doing this, Heather. I've had a project idea in my head for so long of just such a design, using a cardboard book mail packaging, but could never formulate it. I think this is precisely the design idea I can use. I'll continue watching and whether it works for my "idea" or not, this is a super share. Thank you, again.
