Lol oh my gosh Tia that gave me a giggle! I would not be able to do that because I don't have any finger nails, and I hate sticky fingers lol. I've got to give you credit though for using that last bit of glue! Us crafters do what we gotta do! 😂😂🩷🩵

Book art and calendars to make covers is a great idea Loulou! I have some calendars aswell, mostly of animals and I've been using them for the centre pages of signatures. I love that we can reuse all these things for junk journals and we have so many options! 😄💚💚

Hahaha Sarah its a wee bit sad but you aren't supposed to agree with me! lol. As punishment, you must write out your timetables ten times young lady! 😜😂🩵🩷

Oooh you're always making so many interesting things! You definitely need a UA-cam channel! Then we can livestream together one day. Hehe we'd be in all sorts of trouble! 😂😂. Church sale! I'm so jealous. I hope you found lots of crafty goodies! 🙂💚💚

Oh Renee I can't thank you enough for this AMAZING happy mail! It truly was better than anything Santa Claus has ever brought me! Love loved everything, especially all those gorgeous avocado dyed papers, including the little scraps!! And all those little pieces of ephemera, tickets, forms. You sent enough to last me a lifetime!! So thankful for your generosity! 🙂💜💙💚

Thank you Betty! Yes yes, check out what Kirsten used! She did one with twisted crepe paper to make it look like lace. I knew she'd come up with some wonderful and fun ideas! 😄🩵🩷

Thank you so much Betty! I really love the picture on that magazine page. Wish I had the original of that old book! So lovely! I do love how it peeks through the window as well. Hehe I don't mind a hole in a paper now and then either. The junkier the better! lol 😄😂💚

Unfortunately Jamesy that was filmed a little while ago and I've added 2 or 3 more to the gluesticks graveyard since then lol 😂🩵🩵

Thank you Caroline! A little bit of cheaty mixed media lol. I would love to replicate those tags with inks and paint. I love the patterns so much! Butter spreader!! Now that's what I need!. Using the card always makes my hands so sticky lol 😂💚💛

Thanks Molly! I feel like a cheat! lol. I'd love to replicate the tags with real paint and ink. That magazine page is so lovely! 🙂💚💛

Wallpaper sample pics would be nice too! I've been trying to use up some magazines lately and these art magazines have such nice pictures in them. I really love the one that looks all inky and painty! 🙂💚💛

Hi hi Faye! Oh I wish you lived closer so I can dump them on your doorstep, ring the doorbell and run! lol. It's beautiful thick paper but the rolls are so big it's so hard to cut down to size lol 😄🩵🩷

Thank you Vicky! They're like mixed media cheat tags lol. Oh I'd love to be able to reproduce them with ink and paint! That magazine image is gorgeous! 😄🩵🩵

Noooo Janine you naughty girl. You have to use that last little annoying bit in the end cap. And you need to get super annoying sticky fingers like me lol. 😂😂🩵🩷

Hahaha Marja the things us recyclers do! I really hate doing it I must confess lol. And notice how I must film it to guilt those that don't, into doing it too? lol 😜😂🩵🩵

Hi hi lovely Robin! Clivey and I are doing ok. He's been very naughty waking me up at 6am every morning for breakfast. He jumps up on my bed meowing and walks all over me with his pokey feet. I swear it feels like a baby elephant on stilts walking on me lol 😂😂💚🩵

Thank you Gwen! I really love the magazine page that looks like ink and paint. I really want to try to replicate it myself with ink and paint. It's so lovely! 🙂🩷🩵

Me too Deborah! They're full of great pictures to use and backgrounds as well. These pages were great, especially the one that looks like ink and paint. So gorgeous! 🙂💚🧡

Me too Deborah! They're full of nice backgrounds and pictures to use in journals. I especially love the page that looks like ink & paint. So so gorgeous! 🙂💚🧡

Ohhh yes, that's probably what I need! Glad to be be rid of the wet wipes! Glad you like the tags. So easy and there are lots of nice pages in magazines that we can use 🙂💚

Thanks Cathy! Nice and easy little project. I am trying to use up a pile of magazines! 😄💚

Hi Cynthia! After cutting up so many, I can kind of identify which ones will unravel and which ones won't. This particular tablecloth has small tight crocheting joining the "doilies", so they don't tend to unravel. Some of the tablecloths have a very large, looser crocheted join, and those will definitely unravel unless you glue them down. 🙂💚💚

Thanks Lucy! It was quite fun seeing what Kirsten used and if we'd double up and use the same papers lol. I really enjoyed this collab! 😄🩵🩷

Hehe I'm so glad to find someone else that saves the painty baby wipes! I thought I was just being a complete crafty hoarder! 😂😂. Phew! I feel more normal now lol. Thank you for subbing! I love recycling and rescuing random stuff from going in the bin so I hope you find some more fun projects on my channel that you can enjoy 🙂🩷🩵

Yes! That's what I always tell my husband; it's no different to enjoying sudoku or crosswords! lol. I really love the Chinese newspaper too. Each character is like a little piece or art for me. So lovely. Actually you might like this video too ua-cam.com/video/x-qo-dWSvL0/v-deo.htmlsi=DO6M4MBL4vZFhBBd .I used advertisements out of a Chinese newspaper a little while ago to make tickets or tiny journal cards. I didn't care what the ad was for; they just looked so cute! 😄🩵🩷

Thanks Caroline! It was a fun little project! I loved the twisted crepe paper that Kirsten did. I knew she'd come up with some wonderful and fun ideas! 😄🩷🩵

@@captgray2000 Thank you Mary! 🙂🩷🩵

This was such a fun project Carol! I really enjoyed it. Have you watched Kirstens video yet? She used crepe paper and twisted it to make it look like lace. Looked so good! I knew she'd come up with some wonderful and fun ideas! 😄💚🩷

@@BonnyAndClive Yep, I watched it right after yours and she responded immediately to my comment... just sayin', lol. 🤭 I loved the crepe paper idea and told her so, I saved her video as well, such easy, yet effective ideas I'll forget about, so needed to save and working on an idea journal as well, cuz yep, I forget who did what videos when I'm looking for something I know I wanted to try, jeepers, lol.

Loved the crepe paper! Also the black and white pics was really cool too! 🙂🩵🩷

@@BonnyAndClive The black and white pics was one of my favorites as well, they were all great, both of yours and hers, again, so simple, yet it works 🥰

I do like quick and easy! 😁💚

Thanks Carol! That chopstick packet is so cute! Usually they just come in plain old brown paper packs here, so when I came across these ones, I just had to keep them! lol. The Girl Guide badge was a last minute find when digging about my craft room. Who knows what else is hiding away in here! lol. Hehe the mailbox was full and I didn't even realise. Ten years of never deleting emails will do that lol. Deleted a zillion old emails and now it should be right for a few more years lol 😂💚💚

Hi Hunny! This was such a fun little collab. Kind of like an experiment; you don't know the results until you try it lol. I really love the magazine pages and the painty papers the best. For once I liked the colour the best instead of the neutrals!! lol 😄💚🤎

I'm usually not too bothered what the text says when it comes to foreign languages books and papers. I'm sure I have probably made many a tag or journal card over the years using pages with a swear word or something in foreign language lol. Even when I use English book pages, sometimes the odd naughty word or subject matter slips by lol. I guess that's the risk when recycling books, newspapers, magazines etc. I just use whatever I happen to come across in every day life. I also have a Bangladesh newspaper that looks really pretty too. Each word is like a little piece of art in itself 🙂🤎

@@BonnyAndClive Epoch is a little worse than swear words, I just want to make sure people are aware of that publication in particular.

Yeh I know what it is. I don't mind taking a free copy to rip up for crafting lol. Are you in Australia? They have it for free out front of a lot of the Chinese real estates etc. There is another free one but I can't think of the name. It's mostly houses for sale etc. It's quite thick and glossy colour pictures. I'm surprised they go to such expense for a free newspaper! 😆💚

Thank you Teresa! I really loved the magazine pages and painty pages. It was such a fun project. Not sure if you have seen Kirstens video yet, but she used crepe paper and twisted it to make it look like lace. Really loved that one! I knew she would come up with lots of wonderful ideas! 🙂💚🤎

Hi hi Cara! I love that brown map as well. Oh the good old days of having to pull the car over to look up a street directory! Our kids and grandkids don't know how easy they have it lol 😄💚🤎

Thank you Loulou! It was a really fun project and I love some of the results. Not sure if you have seen Kirstens video yet, but she used some crepe paper and twisted it to look like lace. It was so lovely! I knew she would come up with some wonderful ideas! 🙂💚🤎

Thank you Cathy! I really love how this journal turned out. I managed to find a few things in the craft room that were cooking related. I love adding those random stuff to journals; the Girl Guide badge was a cute find and perfect for this journal 🙂💚🤎

@@BonnyAndClive You're welcome!

🥰🥰

Hehe Julie saving the newspapers wrapped around cups and plates is just the sort of thing I'd do too lol. The best craft supplies come from random places and things like that lol. Years ago I pulled up the carpet at our old house as it had nice wooden floorboards underneath, and I was very excited to find some old newspapers from the early 50's under there lol. 😄💚🤎

@@BonnyAndClive lol, I’m jealous of your 50’s cache! 😻

@@greenmacaroni8872 There weren't yhat many, maybe 8-10 pad he's but it was still a happy find lol 😄💚

Hahaha Jamesy I didn't dye used baby wipes lol. The baby wipes were used to clean up paint and ink etc lol. Then I let them dry because they look so pretty lol. I don't use baby wipes in my craft room anymore. I just have a spray bottle of water and a cut up old tshirt lol 😄🩷🩵

Hi hi Kate! Those collaged phone book pages made great bases for tags and journal cards. So simple but they turned out so cute 🙂🩷🩵🌻

Thank you Barbara! It was a fun project. I really love how the magazine pages and the painty papers turned out! 😄🩷🩵

Thank you so much! I really had fun doing these pages!! I've got a little stack of those envelopes so I'll have to come up with some more ways to use them up. I love the magazine pages too. Those were my favourite! 🙂🩷🩵

Thank you so much Natalie Anne! This project was so fun! I really love how the magazine pages and the painty papers turned out. Hope it's given you some ideas for you journals 🙂🩷🩵

It was so much fun Molly! I love the magazine pages and painty pages the best. With Kirstens, I love the crepe paper and the black and white pictures the best. I knew she'd come up with some really fun ideas! 🙂🩷🩵

Thanks Tracey! The eyes have been very naughty this year, but I'm still crafting so I can't complain! 😁🩷🩵

Thank you Christa! I love how it turned out and so happy it's found a home. Now I'm working on some little wallpaper journals. Eight at once! 😂🩷🩵

That was fast... Which is to be expected 😁

@@BonnyAndClive literally salivating now 🤣

I was worried it would sit on my shelf for years tbh. I know my style is not too everyones taste lol 😂💚

While I had that 2 months off Laura, some days I was like Mr Magoo lol. So I just sat at the kitchen table and pulled apart 22 Readers Digest books, then covered them all in wallpaper. I did 8 in that wallpaper that I used for the inside cover pockets of the cooking journal. The rest are different wallpapers. Now I just need to fill them all! 😂💚

Hi hi lovely Tracey! hahaha you are like a funny wool magnet! I'm not sure any amount of projects we do will help you get through all your funny wool lol. But, I will let Kirsten know to start thinking of ideas lol. Pop over her channel and leave a comment requesting her to do some funny wool projects, because she can never say no to a subbie lol. Hehe I'm so cruel 😂😂. Hope you have been well, and hope those eyes haven't been giving you any grief lately! 🙂🩷🩵🌻

@BonnyAndClive doing good here, eyes have been stable ,I've got to get back in craft room I've been gifted loads of things I'm getting too much stuff and not enough craft room l9lolol I'll have to hound Kirsten too lol I'll get everyone dreaming funny wool lol and no excuses for not having any, I can send happy mails lolololol

Hehe I think Kirsten has lots of it too lol. If you scroll back a bit on her channel, she did make these beautiful giant tassels once. She used fuzzy wool and those other types of funny wool. It looked awesome! I think we all have that problem of too much stuff and need to use it up. Doesn't matter how big the craft room is, it's never big enough 😂🩷🩵

Hehe yeh I just walked along my desk plucking stuff out and then I found the baby wipes in a drawer while tidying up the other day lol. I actually really enjoyed this little collab. Thanks for joining in! 😀💚🩵

Thank you Kirsten! I really love how it turned out. It's big and chunky and weighs a tonne! Unfortunately, I still have wayyyyy too many cook books and recipe cards left over lol 😂🧡🤎

Thank you Cathy! I love love how it turned out. Oh I would sooo enjoy seeing you make a cookbook journal as well. The great thing is there are so many cook books around to make ephemera etc from, and how wonderful you have your mums and grandmothers receipts! They are always great to use in journals! 🙂🧡🤎

@@BonnyAndClive thanks so much! !!
