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…
