Very cute and good idea! If you're die cutting the hearts you could use a sheet of foam to speed up that time!

I was thinking the same thing with the foam, I don't have any punches so I'm going to use my Brother Scan and Cut to make the top part of the hearts as they'll all cut the exact same size 😊

This is such a wonderful tutorial. I've never made these and I definitely want to try your idea. I wondered if you could use a die to cut the hearts and the same die to cut a piece of foam or two rather than using a punch. I don't have a heart punch anyway so I'm just thinking out loud. 😂 Thank you so much for sharing your project. ❤🤗

How adorable, especially this time of the year with your choice of paper you are using. I was by no means offended by the ‘crazy’ statement. I use doubled sided tape from insulated window kits for my crafts and cards. It’s certainly more cost effective same and the double sided foam from same kits is great as well. In the crafty world, we use wisdom when purchasing supplies. I know I’m little late posting my response. In my defense, your video showed up in my feed tonight!!

Thank you for watching and commenting! And of course different things work for different people, I should not have used that shorthand comment for "too much effort for me"! I tried to make a fabric bowl following 49Dragonflies tutorial with my own spin and that was a disaster that ended up in the trash... so you don't know until you try something out for yourself.

Being new to hidden paper clips I’ve been watching lots of tutorials, and have been trying out various methods of construction. Yours is an interesting take and I will definitely give it a go. Really like the idea of eliminating the ‘bump’! Just wonder about the thickness of the end result??? Am also not sure about the foam tape being seen on the sides but won’t know for sure until I see it in real life. Regardless, I appreciate the tutorial.

@papercraftcrystal

Thanks for watching! It ends up being as thick as two layers of foam tape, which is thin enough for me considering how lumpy the rest of my journal ends up... your milage may vary!

Foam and scissors are just horrible, I didn’t even know there were non stick scissors 😮 These are gorgeous hidden paper clips, I am yet to try doing these in any method. You know when you see stuff and you think oh I want to try that and then you just forget, I have this every time I see hidden paper clips 😂 memory like a pebble. Thanks for sharing 💖💖

The one I used was from Arteza, and their prices are generally good. Darice makes a super-narrow foam strip (3/16") that is available at Simon Says Stamp.

The hidden paperclips are bookmarks; you can easily move them from page to page. I think they would be a little thick for a regular book, but perfect in a journal that already includes dimensional embellishments and ephemera!

Good tutorial and they turned out good BUT it’s rude to call people “crazy” because trey use an adhesive you’re not using.
