[@mamawls]

I really miss your inspiring video! It amazes me to see your creation. Please be well and safe! I will wait for you and thank you (Mahalo) for your kindness. Joyce from Maui, Hawaii.

[@rainbowelbow2874]

I'm an 18 year old girl on the other side of the ocean in Asia who never had the confidence to craft until I found your channel. Thank you for all the inspiration Joie!

[@randomjournalbitsdawnboss]

I am starting to watch all of your videos again from newest to oldest! Love you Joie!

[@lenellamaxwell6934]

Joie, how do you say "thank you" for unlocking a creative block that has been in my life for years? I am literally in tears right now because of this tutorial and how you broke it down into simple terms that just opened a door inside of me. My head is spinning right now with all kinds of ideas because you made it simple. You see, I need structure in my life, and I need to understand the rhythm and the rhyme of things. I am so creative when I have a guideline to follow, and through all of your videos, I have gained so much freedom. But there was something special about today's video that allows me or gives me artistic creativity instead of copying others' way of doing things. I now feel I can begin to settled down into my own expressive creative comfort. Truly, thank you from the bottom of my heart! (hugs)

[@joiedefi]

You're very welcome Sweetheart 💜💜💜

[@suzettefaircloth5037]

We miss you Joie. We all pray for your health and recovery. Please know we will wait as long as needed.

Hope you start to feel better I love watching your vidoe s you just show every thing so clearly. You are very unic in what you do I love it

[@Aknayirpuna]

Take care Joie, just know you are admired !!!

[@janicestevens8469]

Hello Joie- I’m rewatching some of my favorite videos of yours! I wanted to let you know how much you are missed on youtube. I love your easy style and all of your wonderful ideas. Sending love and prayers your way. ❤

[@susanholland6828]

Joie just found you this week!!❤❤ someone said you are not well Prayers for you ☮️💟✝️☮️✝️love watching your videos!👏👏👏take care

[@LauraLouLou]

Revisiting my favorite videos. Need to get to work for Christmas! Mostly like the Junk Mail Envelope Idea but adding these ideas as well! You are such an inspiration! Wish we could share a pot of tea! Sending virtual, long distance hugs and prayers!!!

[@HollyMae55]

Hi Joie! I've been watching your videos on my TV, but I had to get on my computer, just to let you know that I ADORE your style, both in the outcome and in the process! I love the breezy way you put things together, without thinking too much or too long, the ease of use, and especially your own little world of design. So cute, messy and inspiring! Out of all of the many designers I've been watching, I'm most impressed with and inspired by your fun, childlike junk journals. I also love how smart you are, in your casual approach and fun, freewheeling projects. You are wonderful! (Can you tell I have an "art crush"? LOL!)

[@joiedefi]

Awww, thank you so much Holly Mae 💜

[@GertiePants]

Fabulous video, Joie. I don't possess the self-discipline to stick with a whole month of doing the same thing. I craft depending on my mood. "Do I want to knit today? Crochet? Tat? Work in a coloring book? Junk journal?" I have too many coals in the fire to stay with one thing for too long. I loved making the flippy envelopes. Time for some more. I love your style, and I'm still trying to find mine. Thank you for all you teach.

[@karibellavita6167]

Dear Joie, I found your channel a few weeks ago and have been watching your videos out of order while crafting. I just happened across this last night and realized there was a gap in your posts. I am so sorry to hear you are having a tough time right now. You've been my crafting companion because I love to listen to your voice while I am puttering. I'm sending you my love and good wishes during whatever it is you are going through. ❤❤❤

[@joiedefi]

Thank you so much 💜🤗

[@megtravis1218]

I would sure love to see you back on KZbin Joie. I love your talent and inspiration!

[@rgporter1957]

I've said this before, but it bears saying yet again, "Joie, you continue to amaze me with all your creativity!" Thank you, thank you, thank you!💗💗💗

[@AleciasCreativeParadise]

Wow! The birds with the scrappy tails are so pretty! Thank you for sharing your inspiration and beautiful creations!!

[@jennifermott5651]

I love your colorful pages!

[@debbieyanta5753]

Missing you Joie, I keep hoping to see a new video soon. Pray that you will be back to health soon!! So until then, I'm watching your past videos again..always learning something new! Thank you !!

[@TheMajmeister]

Joie, I keep watching this video over and over because there is so much to see!! Of all the JJ crafters, you are my favorite. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your work - especially your collages!!

[@KelleysQuiltsandCruises]

Thank you for the tips! I made a travellers notebook and gave it to a friend for Christmas. I used fabric quite a bit. Naturally as a quilter first, I have loads of it!

[@whiteoakgoldenretrievers4446]

My favorite is the pre-made pages. Perfectly fits my time and inspiration. Love all you do!

[@lisagreen3778]

I love your collage work …so many beautiful elements!

[@JTM240]

So much to see. Gorgeous and full of lovely artwork. LOVE the birds.

[@katherinehawkes]

Wonderful tips and tricks! Thank you for sharing your ideas, Joie. It is so helpful and inspiring. Be especially blessed! ❤

[@lynnblair9320]

Thank you Joie! I think we all get "stuck" once and a while, so this is very helpful! Hugs, Lynn

[@debbiespringer7961]

I love your ideas, Joie. I especially like the pre-made pages. That's something I can do when I don't know what to do, or too overwhelmed to start. Thank you!

[@celestialstorybooks]

I love your channel so much! Your voice and way of explaining things is so calming. The blank page is very intimidating for me and this video is particularly helpful.

[@brendasoler4759]

I'm so sorry to hear that you're unwell, Joie! Sending best wishes for a full and complete recovery, and I do hope you're feeling better soon. Take good care! Cheers from a loyal and inspired subbie in NE Florida.

[@joiedefi]

Thank you so much. I'm working on it every day.

[@genamomma]

Hi Joie, I'm missing you and I've been watching your older videos, but just checking on you to say to "hang in there and you've got this!" Try to rest and know we are pulling for you and will be here when you're ready. Sending happy thoughts from sunny Arizona! ~Gena 🌻🌵🌼🌵🏵

[@sandiharkin9922]

Iam also missing Joie’s videos!! I am hoping to see you doing new videos again! I will follow Gena’s lead and watch old ones for now!

[@joiedefi]

Thank you so much

[@tinaluu9810]

Your creativity is amazing and spectacular. I really love the that you have flips and flaps and use many elements that just end up working well with each other. Your style and creative knowledge really gets my mind to think outside the normal. I appreciate your time and thank you kindly for sharing this with us beautiful. Blessings always

[@sandrairish9989]

This is a phenomenal video. Thank you SO MUCH!

[@kimberlyroveredo9137]

Every single page you create is a work of art!

[@randomjournalbitsdawnboss]

I just loved the bird so much. I love every video of yours that I have watched. You really are a wonderful teacher of your love of crafting. The instruction sheets that you provide are extremely helpful and I use them. If you struggle with health issues they provide a sense of order. Thank you for sharing and looking forward to your return to KZbin. You are a much loved part of the crafting community. Hugs from America.

[@sherryliberto6749]

You create so intuitive. All of the flips and flaps , hidden pockets. Joie, you truly inspire me. Thanks 😊 Sending love and big hugs Sherry ❤

[@plan4life]

Wow, I love those birds! I think the glitter in the tails makes it so special. You will def need to do a tutorial on this! 🥰

[@karenkrafts]

I love your idea to embellish the birds tails. You did an amazing job with them!

[@tinaknoell2401]

❤ I'm watching your videos again and remembering how great they are. I'm thinking of you and hope wellness for you. Peace and Blessings.

[@juliasatterwhite9835]

Awesome tips and guilds! Beautiful! All your journal pages are beautiful! Thank you for sharing! God bless! Love hugs and prayers my friend! 💜😇💖🤗🙏💜

[@tavanetaylor98]

You were the artist that introduced me to junk journaling and i am sooooo grateful to you for sharing your talent! Your videos never disappoint and i always learn something. Plus i just love listening to you talk.💙

[@Rhonda.D.Wright]

Joie, thank you again for another beautiful video with flip-throughs from your journals and ideas when we are feeling stuck. Your beautiful journals are so relaxing for me to see and give me a feeling of walking through a whimsical forest. ❤

[@alicejump2290]

Fantastic tips and journaling! May you find comfort and healing each day!

[@DewdropGablesCa]

I loved this video, Joie, so much inspiration. I'm doing the Junk Journal January for the first time and having fun, even if I'm behind due to life. I love how you used the birds, sewing fabric on their tails, so gorgeous! I'll have to check out your other linked videos you mention here, thanks for sharing! Debbie :)

[@MeredithHenning]

Love all these ideas Joie!! Appreciate all your tips and inspiration!! xo

[@nancypyter1511]

Love your ideas behind your creations Joie! And thanks for showing past projects, I forget them sometimes and I get excited all over again when you show them!

[@pnichols1966]

I’ve saved so many envelopes and plan to experiment with them. So much fun! Thank you for so many good ideas. I love your videos and your style.

[@thefiveacrewoods6144]

Loved all the ideas. Hubby got me a craft sewing machine for Christmas and I am learning to use it for my journals. He also got me a large green mat ( I have a small one but wanted something bigger), so it's much easier to make master boards now. Thanks for all your inspiration. love watching your videos.

[@cmt8783]

Thanks for these ideas. I love your birds - they look like they’re fun to make! I also love your pre-made book pages - I would love to make some on days when I feel stuck.

[@joiedefi]

Sounds great!❣️

[@shirleyhale5683]

Thanks!

[@AmberGarrett-py6ry]

Your decorated sewn birds are wonderful!

[@joiedefi]

Thanks Amber

[@rhondazamora8136]

I’m heading over to Pinterest to print your cheat sheet. I’m going to make a journal for myself with ideas etc. I’m excited to create just for myself. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@jeweltompkins8532]

Your pages are so rich and luscious. I'm doing an ICAD version for JJJ; however, I think with a little planning, I could adapt some of these fabulous tips. I especially like the use of flips and tucks. Thank you.

[@judiemjacobson4613]

I love seeing your junk journals. I think what you do is so amazing.

[@sherryvanderpool8644]

Very inspiring I enjoyed your video

[@lucyfanning7496]

I love how interactive your journals are. My words for this year are courage and perseverance, so I intend to take a leap and include lots of flips and flaps in my journals. Thank you as always for the wonderful inspiration.

[@MicheleEngel]

I’ve never gotten on board with “words for the year,” but when I read yours, they immediately resonated with me. So I’ve adopted them for 2023-a year that will have me moving (at 69 years old)from CA back to my home town in the Midwest (a new adventure!) and will require focus and perseverance to get my home here sold. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@livingauthenticallyonmyownterm]

Joie, I just love your birds and butterflies and your painted stamps. They make your pages so pretty. How you use the bird from the children’s book page is what I’ve been wanting to find. I’m making a music junk journal for my hubby, and there are a lot of guitars which are long and I didn’t know how to put them on a page. What a great way to do it! Thanks so much my friend ❤

[@susibug88]

I just love your videos 😊💕….. I love all your ideas and not having to be perfect, love your printed lists and I love just listening. ….so relaxing 😊💕

[@joiedefi]

Thank you so much

[@debhat]

Hi Joie. Rewatching this video because I need some inspiration for my next journal. And you never disappoint! Thank you as always, for teaching us so much. Cheers from Denver CO!

[@janetvisochi-baum7572]

Joie this was truly wonderful to watch - sometimes i go blank when it comes time to just decorate a page - you have such wonderful pages that are so inspiring - just to be given that "nudge" and say try this helps - thank you xx

[@debbieellebracht9422]

I adore greens and yellows on my pages❤ Such fun ideas, Joie.

[@joiedefi]

Thanks Debbie

Hi, I'm new to your channel, I love your journals, they are so beautifully designed, very ecclectic, which I love, I do have blockage sometimes which is very frustrating, so I usually put all my craft stuff away and wait for another day to try to unblock. I need inspiration and your channel has helped me with this. Do you ever sell your journals?

[@joiedefi]

Whatever I sell goes in my Etsy shop. papercraftjoiedefi.etsy.com
