Graphic 45 File Folder Mini Class Visusals
Front Cover
Back Cover
Pages 1 & 2
Page 1 - Fold out is cut 4x4 to accommodate the size of the rooster. Page 2 is fussy cut and made into a pocket.
Pages 3 & 4 - Page 3 is a drop down diagonal pocket. Create the pocket page at the time of stacking and gluing your pages. Hint: Fold page 3 first before gluing the stacked pages. If you forget, just add either a 3x4 panel to page 3 and create a pocket that way. OR, add a 6x4 panel over both pages with the pocket created on the left.
Page 5 & 6 - The double diagonal pockets are added by cutting a 6x4 panel, folding it in half and bringing the top corners at an angle toward the center fold.
Pages 7&8 - Page 7 is a pocket from a 2-1/2x 6 sized strip folded into a pocket. A band is wrapped around the pocket and affixed to the back. No other gluing of the sides is necessary. Page8 pocket is basically a sideways envelope with a decorative edge.
Pages 9 & 10 - Postoids (little stamps) are offset above the page and glued to the tabs. Journaling pages are slid under the postoids and can be removed.
Pages 11 & 12 - Corner pocket (Page 11) is a square (2-1/2x2-1/2) cut in half at a diagonal. Page 12 pocket is the same directions as Page 3&4 above.
Pages 13&14 - These pages are a 'gatefold' design that open from the center (see below). Two 3x4 panels are each folded in half and mounted to the book with the folded edges facing out. The girl is mounted to a 3" strip that is mounted to form a pocket.

Pages 15&16 - A simple border strip 6" long is affixed to the bottom edge to form a pocket on both pages.
.jpg)
Pages 17&18 - Another gatefold configuration only this time you cut a panel 12 x 4 and fold it in the center first and bring the two ends toward the center fold.
Pages 19&20 - The scallop edged tag (pg. 20) is a pocket with the tiny envelope affixed to the front.

These visuals/instructions are meant to be accessed by paid class participants who took my October 5, 2013 class. I would greatly appreciate you not sharing this link but encourage you to invite people to attend my upcoming classes who are also interested in my work!
Happy Paper Crafting!

FEBRUARY SWAP: Any Theme in Green
We all enjoy St. Patrick’s Day but the reality is that we don’t actually make cards to mail. The next best thing is to make a card using any theme but stick to colors of green! A nice trade off I think. Be sure to create a second card for the Everson tree! The Everson card doesn’t have to be the same as your swap card but we do need the finished size to be A2 or 4-1/4 x 5-1/2. We’ll also create an OWH card to donate.
FEBRUARY PROJECT: What’s Hot in February?
There are several hot images out there that pop up everywhere such as bicycles, cameos, birds, and more! I’ll find us trendy images to create some awesome cards for this time of year.

AUGUST MEETING REPORT:
Great turnout AGAIN! Project cards focused on scrap crafting a card and decorating an Accucut envelope, making a pocket card from a 6x12 sheet, and creating a darling purse from a template created from the 3D Challenge Group on Paper Craft Planet by Adela, suitable for use as a favor or clever gift idea. Our OWH card was a duplicate of our scrap crafted card without any bulk. In all, we created 3 very clever and useful cards and projects plus donated a card to Operation Write Home soldiers. I would love to hear what else you did with your card ideas!
Door prizes were won by Cindy, Mary Ann and our newest member, Lisa. Our recipe swap pocket cards were totally awesome!
SEPTEMBER SWAP: Pumpkins!
I really enjoy how we as a group discuss the next month’s swap card theme. We unanimously agreed that we don’t mail Halloween cards. After tossing around ideas, we came up with creating a card with pumpkins on it! You can certainly make a Halloween card if you wish, but it must have a pumpkin somewhere as a focal point. Be sure to include a card for our Everson Tree! Only 3 months left to donate to our precious club event!
SEPTEMBER PROJECT: Seasonal Surprise!
There is so much out there for me to choose from for card projects! The Shoppe is getting is Impression Obsession stamps and new papers from Basic Grey, Jenni Bowlin and Webster’s to name a few. The new WeR fall paper line is in and is AWESOME!!!! I’d like to surprise you (again) with a combination of all of the above for September’s meeting.

JULY MEETING REPORT
Great turnout! We added something new this month that will be a regular component of our monthly meetings. We are donating a card to Operation Write Home (OWH) the organization that collects hand crafted cards and sends them to our military for their use when sending mail to their own families. We actually had enough time and materials to make two cards. I’m very excited about this added feature and I hope you are too. Basically, we are using the design from one of our project cards and replicating it for OWH.
This month was all about Clean and Simple (CAS) cards – something I’ve never done as a design style with club. We made four cards altogether each with their own unique designs. I think my favorite was using the October Afternoon diecuts as our base card front and added embellishments from there. We learned a lot about making fast cards that didn’t look lame.
Door prizes were won by Mercedes, Cindy and Amy. Our wedding swap cards were stunning and were a fun change to our swap themes.
AUGUST SWAP: Pocket Card and Recipe Tuck-in!
Linda W. was showing me a recipe swap she’s involved in, which gave me the inspiration for our club swap this month! Over the years, we’ve made pocket cards to hold gift cards, tags, and whatever else. Our swap is to write a favorite summer recipe on a 3x5 recipe card and then tuck it into a pocket card! I liked this idea so well, I’m doing this on my Paper Craft Planet Group too! Remember a card for the Everson!
Besides our 12x12 recipe card paper line, my friend Christi over at Paper Craft Planet has provided several sites for free printable recipe cards, some of which can be typed onto and then printed on cardstock!
http://www.freeprintablerecipecards.net/category/new
(This site you can print FREE recipe cards with or without lines.)
http://www.bellybytes.com/recipe/recipe_cards.html
(This one even has some FREE House Mouse recipe cards!)
http://tipnut.com/free-printable-recipe-cards-a-nice-collection/
(This site has TONS of FREE printable recipe cards!)
http://alenkasprintables.com/1/35/35a.htm
(This site allows you to choose the FREE recipe card you want to use.
Then type everything for your recipe into the “fill-in-the-blank” boxes.
This is the way to go, if you don’t like handwriting recipes out.)
I just found another wonderful site for FREE PRINTABLE recipe cards! It's the HP (Hewlet Packer) website. I just printed out my recipe card for August and was able to put a photo of myself onto the recipe card! How cool is that????? Pretty darn cool if ya ask me. hehehe

JUNE MEETING REPORT
Four cards were presented using Graphic 45 Boardwalk images. We worked with vertical and horizontal orientations of the focal vintage photo and I gave ideas of how to complete the card with just a few embellishments. We also used the new Tweety Jill line of stamps and some of the clipart images and papers from the 12x12 paper pack. A fun night of card making was had by all!
We swapped our red, white and blue star themed cards and had 4 door prizes that were won by Amy, Cindy and Linda W and Mary Ann.
JULY SWAP: Wedding Card
Since Amy is getting married in September, I think it would be sweet to make a wedding card for our July swap! Use any colors and any stamps you wish. Remember a card for the Everson!
JULY PROJECT: October Afternoon in July
We just got in new October Afternoon papers and I scooped up every sheet. It’s a perfect time to use them in our July project cards! You can definitely figure they will be cottage chic!

ANOTHER PAPER CRAFT PLANET UPDATE! I’m pleased to announce that I am moderating a brand new group on Paper Craft Planet called CAS Card Group. This group is designed for people who need CAS help because it is a style that is too simple (myself included)! We will have weekly lessons and a group album to post our cards to. This site is free and is a wonderful place to explore and expand your paper crafting skills and to meet other people who share similar interests. I have links to all three groups on my blog if you are interested in checking them out!
