Mini File Folder Journal Inspired by Darlene McConnachie

- I’m always excited and inspired by other artists in our community and I came accross a video by Darlene McConnachie the other week where Darlene created a mini journal from a couple of file folders. I've created one with a few changes to suit my own style and I thoroughly recommend watching the original video where the end result is slightly different.
Here is the link to the original video: • Mini File Folder Journ...

I found this old video. Im soooo happy about it. A lady tried showing something similar but think she lost us all half way. No fast forward on your videos. I enjoy watching the whole video. Very excited about this. Thank you
I just love the way u show how to do all steps !!! And I NEVER fast forward and of your steps u show.
Hi Ceri, I just wanted to say I never fast forward your presentations, I do with many others, but never yours. I love your very engaging chat, it relaxes and captivates the attention and therefore cements my learnings in an easy flow. Thank you. ( I also thank you for not putting music to your tutorials or interrupting your demonstration with a fast forward, as we all know, we can do that ourselves) Have a fabby time in the USA)
Thank you Jane, I do occasionally put in sped up footage to try and keep the length of the video to a manageable upload length…..but it’s very rare. Thank you for watching.
What Jane said.
If I could thumbs up your comment a thousand times, I would!!! Often crafters think that everyone watching a video is a crafter too, but not so and when you’re just starting out, you truly need all the help you can get!
Absolutely ❤ this little book. I intend to make one ( it will be my first!) to gift to a friend who does journeling. Ceri, I SO enjoy watching and listening to you as you go through the process of each project...even if it's something that I 've never done. Doesn't mean that I never WILL, but I'm on the homestretch, so I 'd best " put a skip in it" !!! 😉😁
I have to tell you how happy I am to have found your video. Thank you for the serendipity
You are so welcome
Cool project. I have to make two of these for my granddaughters
Your style really appeals to my old fashioned secretary’s soul! Neat, tidy and organized. I love this idea!
Lol….thank you Sue
Such an adorable little journal! Who wouldn’t love it? Thans so much for sharing!
Thanks so much! 😊
I have to tell you that there is not a moment of boring watching your entire process. I believe how much care you put into precision is inspiring. I learn so much ! There is no rush, the less rush the better because art is a form of meditation. Thank you.
Thanks so much 😊
OMG--those boxes of tags and journal cards you have is AMAZING!!!!! W🤩WZERS--LOVE to see more of what's inside and how it got to be so beautifully filled up. This is a great project--perfect size for gift-giving, traveling, bedside notes, soooooo many options.
Yup it’s such a useful size.
Wow! I’m a new crafter and I think I just stumbled on a gold mine!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to include the finer points. I always seem to get stumped, where the video-crafter assumes everyone obviously knows things. And I can’t even tell you how impressed I am with your amazing organization skills! Kudos!!!
Thank you and welcome to my channel.
This was fun and easy! Thank you. Great instruction and enjoy your videos.
I love your real-time videos and your logical approach. This is a super little journal. Thanks for sharing it with us.
You are so welcome Mary.
Brilliant! so tidy and neat with the spine covering, sturdier and more substatial than the usual accordion fold. I've already made a pile for gifts. thank you for sharing this great idea.
Wonderful
Made this! and watched Darlene's too! I added a cover and a belly band! Thank you for the video!(added link)
I am having such fun watching these videos! So many wonderful ideas - and so pretty!!!
Glad you like them!
You are such a great teacher! I love the way you explain things so clearly! This is the cutest journal, so versatile…love it!
Fabulous
First video of yours I have watched. Great teaching. Little words printed make the piece fun! Then you know the piece was a folder and that is kind of neat.
Thank you and welcome to my channel.
I just fell in 💖 with this!!
Going to give it a try! 👍🥰
My girls will enjoy these.
Thank YoU for sharing!💝
You are so welcome!
Fantastic journal!!! Really love the sturdiness of it and all the writing spaces! Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks so much! 😊
I'm making one of these. I love the twist you spin in most projects... You are the best!!
Thank you for being so thorough with your instructions. I think it does set you a part in a world where many youtubers skip over the measuring, etc.
I try to learn from videos I watch as to what a good video should contain in my personal opinion.
I love the way it turned out, it was fun watching the process.
Thank you
This would be a great addition to a full size journal as a companion piece. TFS Ceri. Hope you have a great day. 🌞
Wonderful idea Donna. Thank you
At first I was like what is he talking about? That's not centered. Lol I was not paying attention. When you cut the notch out I realized what you were up to. Duh. I'm glad I kept watching. This is so cute. Glad you explain like you do. It helps us make sense of the entire project. Thanks Ceri.
Thank you Marlene
What a cute, quick journal. It would make a great gift for someone special. Thank you Ceri.
I think so too!
I loved this video! So practical, so clear, so inspiring and relaxing.... Got my pen and paper out to make notes! 😁... And then you brought out the boxes of journaling cards and tags and I said to my hubby" look how tidy his stuff is!! ". I wanna be like you when I grow up! 😁
Lol…I struggle to work in clutter as I’m OCD, for some people it works for me chaos makes me shut down.
What a marvelous idea, your little journal turned out beautifully…. I like the pages you picked, thanks for a great video. 🌸💕🌸
Thank you
Beautiful little journal...so enjoyed seeing & hearing your process in real time!! 💕🌹

Bellísimo ⚘️ ⚘️ ⚘️ ⚘️ ⚘️
What an adorable little journal! I think I want to do one for my daughter, but Halloween themed, as she loves Halloween. She decorates a lot, and I feel this mini journal won't take up lots of space, but make a fine addition to her decor. Possibly laying at the base of a spooky calendelabra she has. Thank you so much for sharing, and for your excellent style of teaching! I also don't fast forward. My brain seems to need the repeating of the process anyway, to get it to stick in there. *~*
Fabulous idea thank you.
Yes, this *is* a sweet little make! Thank you!
Thank you I think so too.
Absolutely love it. I love the way you teach. I am a beginner. Just love you.
Wonderful I always try to keep the beginner in mind when I’m creating.
That was just what I needed!! Simple and so cute and useful! Thanks!
Wonderful news, have fun.
I think this could be a fab little gratitude journal. Ceri, your presentation and attention to detail is greatly appreciated as is the quality of your work. Hope that you are having a good time in the US!!
Thank you, I am having fun catching upon with friends.
Wonderful little journal, Ceri! This would be a gorgeous gift…thinking of graduation and wedding season! Many thanks yet again for putting in all the steps. I learn so very much from you! #dailydoseofceri

Beautiful Ceri, I wasn’t expecting a new tutorial as you are on holiday so this was a lovely surprise. Hope that you are having a relaxing time. If I were you I would leave my clothes behind and stuff my suitcase with Tim Holtz ephemera 😆
