A Proper Gentleman Card Folio Tutorial is Now Live
Hello, Friends! Good news! Many of you asked me to create a tutorial for THIS . Thanks to the generosity of Graphic 45, who sent me another DCE, I am happy to report that A Proper Gentleman Card Folio Tutorial is now available on my YouTube Channel.
Because I was out of a few supplies, you will find a few of the details in this tutorial are slightly different from the original project. (And truthfully, I hate making the exact same thing twice.) But the basics are all the same, and the process is exactly the same.
This is a “beginning to end” tutorial that will guide you through every single step in creating this folio. (A labor of love, my friends…this took 2 1/2 days of my life. LOL) I had to split the tutorial into two parts because of its length.
A Proper Gentleman Card Folio Tutorial Part 1: Building the Base and the Folio Interior
A Proper Gentleman Card Folio Tutorial Part 2: Creating the Frame Border and Card Front
Now that should keep you busy for a day or two! LOL
If you haven’t subscribed to my YouTube Channel, you are really missing out. I have over 100 videos, many of them tutorials, where I share my love for papercrafting. These tutorials are loaded with techniques, tips, inspiration and ideas that will help you raise your papercrafting skills to the next level.And all of them are FREE. You can subscribe HERE.
And if you love this folio, but don’t have time to make one yourself, I have the sample available for purchase in my ETSY shop. First come, first served.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Cheerio,
kathy

How kind of you to share these videos and to make another one of these brilliant cards. I am bookmarking this so I can watch these videos on future mornings. Time to get ready for work now. Have a wonderful day!
Oh Kathy…you’ve just inspired me for my next brother-in-law card! This folio is such a unique creation, the details of the cover alone have given me some great ideas for adding those little things that make a project just a bit more… Like the way the tags are pocketed but peek out. It adds still another dimension to the front view. Your two-part video is a wonderful tutorial, each one to watch over and over, especially setting up the basic folio, or making tags, or a book mark or…see what I mean? It’s full of helpful ideas. Thanks for sharing everything.
Thanks for another great tutorial.
Kathy, enjoyed your tutorial- I always learn something. You certainly are the queen of the little details! That’s the fun and creative part of the project. Ps I don’t really like reproducing either. BORING! And never turns out the samehave a great day.
Fabulous card, Kathy! Love the tutorial.
Kathy, thank you for making the tutorial for this card. It is so beautifully vintage and masculine. Your tutorials are always such a pleasure to watch and I always pick up so many helpful hints. Have a wonderful day! Hugs!
Oh My Goodness Kathy!!!! What a wonderful way to wake up an hour early this morning. Your video dinged my phone because I forgot to turn it off. LOL My kitty snuggled up with me while I watched. Purrfect! I have a very dear friend retiring the beginning of April and this will be his card/gift. I love to make matching boxes for my dimensional cards to make the presentation even better. I already have the Graphic 45 papers so I am good to go.
I am going to get my craft on right now! Thank You!!!
Many Blessings,
Vicki
