Those watercolors ARE divine!! And this accordion journal is going to be delightful!

[@susankaters4185]

Absolutely gorgeous. Love this idea!

[@megjournals]

So fun to see your take on a Christmas accordion junk journal!! 🥰🥰

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks for all your inspiration! 😃❤️

[@joiedefi]

Oh my...I'm tempted to have a go at this accordion style myself now!! Fantastic to see you having a go at the smooshing effect. I think it worked really well with your paints. It also works well with acrylic...I think I used gold acrylic paints on the collaboration ephemera that I made for your folio. Lovely, lovely project Barbara!!!💜🌿🍄🤗

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks Joie! I would love to see your version of this! 😃❤️

You have the best collection of deer stamps! I am also a washi hoarder. I have way too much and want to thin out my collection. Fortunately, for my granddaughter's most recent birthday I started her on journaling. She will get several of my washi rolls to use in her new journal. She calls it "journaling that's more fun than just writing." I love that!

I have very few Washi tapes mostly because of the cost I'm on a very tight budget for my junk journaling. I don't use them real often because I've not really comfortable and knowing how to use them. But when I have used them I've liked them. I am doing the handmaid Washi tapes with double-faced tape and I really enjoy making them and using them. Mainly because I can have a bigger variety

Thanks! Have fun with your scraps! 😃❤️

[@pambotter365]

I am trying to get out of that rectangle and square papers and more just random shapes. It’s hard! LOL! I have lots of washi and try to use it. I’m currently using some in a journal so that’s great. My son bought me a whole pack of different holiday washi. I don’t create while watching your videos, I enjoy watching while I drink my morning coffee. I do save your videos and have made several journals like you have made. So thanks for all the inspiration! So enjoy your videos! TFS Barbara! ❤️

[@TheCrabbyCrafterlol]

Good for YOU for makin' yourself "stretch" in different ways and what a GREAT KID you have--buying you washi 🥰 (havin' coffee as we speak--there's something so relaxing about junk journal vids in the morning ☕️📚🎨)

Very inspiring video, Barbara! Great idea! 🌟 /Ditte

[@quinbee_creates]

I watched this video last night and started making one right away even though it was after midnight. Well, I say right away but I first searched high and low trying to find the paper I wanted to use but couldn't find because I had recently reorganized my craft area and of course the one thing I can't find is the one thing I want. I ended up using some banner paper and made it four and a half feet long. I thought I might have to divide it and make 2 journals but it all folded up nicely into about the size of a small hardcover. Looking forward to the next video. TFS.

[@49dragonflies]

I’m so happy you were inspired by this and wish you lots of fun! 😃❤️

[@TabithaJaycox]

Love, love, love this! I always craft along but am usually crafting something else. This gives me the best ideas. Love it that you only do rectangles. I usually do weird shapes and straighten them with washi. 🤣😂🤣

I love this project. I don’t know about you but I feel like I have so many supplies & products that I don’t feel like I use many of them enough. That is something I’ve committed to, using what I have before I buy more. It’s difficult because the new stuff comes out & it’s so tempting to buy stuff I don’t really need.

[@49dragonflies]

Im totally with you! 😃❤️

[@hankejoosen4029]

I’m more hoarding my washitapes then using them, like the rest of my art supplies 🙄. But I like so many different things in crafting, so of course I really need all those beauties 😂.

That folding up exactly perfect was so satisfying 😍 I’ve been working on an accordion journal too, but with frankenpaper like MegJournals. I’ve been craving more accordion journal content so this whole video was satisfying tbh!

Washie tape....yes, Barbara, I tend to hoard it also.. I thought I was alone with this, so, Thank you!

Washi Tape -- I have originally hoarded them, but I've gotten better about using them. USE THEM!!! If you keep them too long, it's like a lot of tapes, the glue-ness gets old and weird and you can't get them to un-roll properly. It's like a lot of art supplies -- use 'em before they aren't useable. :)

Morning Barbara, I am with you my friend, I cannot "do" odd shaped papers, I never know where to put them!! Rectangles, squares are so much easier to place. I also have quite a bit of washi that is getting older as we speak, and I find it hard to use them, but, like you, I am TRYING to use them more, quite a difficult task. I love the idea of this accordion journal, it is going to look scrummy, already it is a lovely looking piece of work and I cannot wait for the next part of the adventure. Thank you for always being so willing to share your awesome talent, and also, all the little hints and tips. Love watching and cannot wait for the next "episode" Until next time, Blessings and hugs as always from Cape Town. Diana

Thanks so much for your kind feedback, Diana! Let’s both try to use our washis more before they go bad! ❤️

Love the masterboard idea to start a journal with and also adding the washi before further decorating. And noooooooo I don’t hoard washi, 🤥, I just have a collection that sits perfectly perfect on my decorated shelf with all the other decorative craft items, that I just love to see when I enter my craftroom. 😂😂😂 I am getting better at not buying any washi 🥰 I just don’t look at the washi tapes in stores like Action any more. And I have finished two washi’s recently 🎊 felt very accomplished 😂😂

I'm with you in terms of wanting my shapes to be rectangular; in fact as a rule I make sure my scraps are rectangular before I put them in the designated container!

[@49dragonflies]

I do that too mostly! 😃
