I wanted to share a project I made for GreenCraft Magazine. It’s a cardboard portfolio for pretty papers, important papers, artwork, or whatever you like. Above is my portfolio before I sent it off almost a year ago. I had almost forgotten what it looked liked.
It is completely made of cardboard, cereal box board, maps and old papers and scraps of ribbon, fabric, fringe and buttons. Oh, and a bit of paint and glue.
I really love this magazine. Beautiful photographs, and so many wonderful ideas and contributors.
I am also in the new issue of Somerset Home, but I haven’t seen it yet!! I’m hoping to get my copy in the mail soon or I may just have to go out and get it myself. I’ll wait a couple more days…
How lovely, i love your portfolio and that you made it into the magazine. I contacted Somerset Studios with ref to that magazine this year to show them my recylced glass jars but allas no one even got back to me 🙁
Congratulations! I’ll have to pick up a copy!
you are rockin’ Regina! way to go on all of it. how exciting it must be to see your work in print again
Congrats. That is great and I hope you got your Somerset Home by now!
Hi, Regina!
This is the first issue of GreenCraft I have purchased, and I fell in love with your portfolio. Alas, I am a visual crafter, and the instructions in the mag aren’t detailed enough for me to follow. Is there any way to get a more step-by-step set of instructions? I am getting hung up on the part where I am supposed to be drawing three lines, one inch apart.
Thanks for sharing your inspiring green crafting!

I was so pleased to see this portfolio on your site, I always purchase the Somerset magazines and saw your portfolio project in there. I just sat down yesterday and started a project based on your idea – now I happened upon your site and “viola” – there it was!! Truly awesome idea – I look forward to much more of your fantastic inspiration on your site!!

Gorgeous, and WELL DONE! If only we could get the Somerset magazines over here (sniff sniff) Beautiful portfolio, I really must make one for myself, I always have bits of paper all over the place…
