Hi and welcome to AddINKtive Designs.
Last Friday I attended a Mintay Folio Class with LJ’s Crafty Corner at Bev’s Cross Crafts in Spreyton. We made a folio using 12×12 papers from the Grandma’s Attic range by Mintay. The folio featured various pockets, belly bands, a notepad and notebook. The folio and notebook were bound using a pamphlet stitch.
Cover Page
The bonus mystery make was dying some seam binding ribbon which I used to fasten my folio.
Pages 1 & 2
These pages contain a notepad, pocket and belly band.
Pages 3 & 4
A little tuck pocket and larger pocket feature on pages 3 & 4.
Pages 5 & 6
These pages have a large pocket and a long thin side pocket.
Pages 7 & 8
The wax threads in the middle have paper circles attached for extra embellishment and the double page has side pockets.
Pages 9 & 10
These pages have a large pocket and a long thin side pocket that ‘mirror’ the ones on pages 5 & 6.
Pages 11 & 12
A little tuck pocket and larger pocket feature on pages 11 & 12 and ‘mirror’ the ones on pages 3 & 4.
Pages 13 & 16
I attached another long belly band on page 13 and an extra flap page was added to the back cover.
Pages 14 & 15
Open up the extra flap page to see a pocket on the inside and a tall tuck pocket that contains a little notebook.
Back Cover
All the page edges and ephemera were inked with Ground Espresso (Distress Oxide) Ink and the corners were rounded for a nicer finish.
Grandma’s Attic 12×12
I thoroughly enjoyed making this folio; Lynne always comes up with some creative designs for her classes. In the next one we’ll be making a Skinnyscape Lightbox … can’t wait!
Thanks for stopping by,
