G45 Princess Folio

Join our Facebook group Scrapbookers of Country Craft Creations for FREE live tutorials every Monday!!

Tonight's tutorial is this gorgeous folio


Tammy will be starting 1/2 hour earlier this Monday as this project may take a little extra time. The tutorial will begin at 5:30 MST

The folio is made mostly out of cardstock, but she used light weight chipboard pieces on the spine areas. The light weight chipboard is included in the cutting guide but you can make this folio without it. The light weight chipboard helps the folio keeps its shape. Regular chipboard is too heavy. The light weight chipboard is available in the store, but you can also use the back of your paper pads.

Lt. weight chipboard pieces

1- 7/8 x 8 7/8 cut it a hair short of 8 7/8
