Hello!
Has it been a long time!? Absolutely!!! I hope everyone is doing well.
I am writing up this post on the blog to first let you know that there a new Mini Book kit has been added to my Etsy store, it is nature themed and it is so pretty!
You can have a look it here. I also have a video overview of the finished book:
Today I published the first part of the tutorial series, in which I talk about the tools and supplies used in this project, as well as demonstrate how to assemble a cute little storage box for fussy cuts.
I promised to provide you guys with the list of tools and supplies. It was getting too long to fit into the You Tube video description box. For that reason, I decided to post the list on the blog and at the same opportunity, to let you know that I am fine, breathing and crafting :)))
