Craft with Me - Altered Book - Finishing

[@emilyburbage8571]

I have so loved watching you do this book. You are so inspirational.

[@annahaddock9081]

I have never made a altered book but I’ve been watching your videos , and each time I’ve become more and morw hooked. So I’m off to find an old book. Thank you so much for the inspiration. I have loved watching.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I sometimes use dollar store books too because they have sturdy spines and I cover the text anyway! ❤️

[@robinmentzer7974]

Can't even imagine snow in the spring, we don't even get snow in the winter time. But that would be great stay at home and craft time. Love, love the book, I have learned so much watching you. Thanks for all your videos.

[@BlaizC]

I'm giving you a standing ovation for this project! Thanks for sharing the process.

[@cynthiatooley4577]

Only us scrappers understand the statement. Ohhh there’s a fun scrap JOYFUL

[@dalesueglass8421]

I have loved every minute of this series. Thank you!

[@fayejones6740]

Love this journal. It has been a joy watching and learning from you.

[@lindanagle3796]

Worth every minute of it. Love it.

[@timgepner8373]

Hi Gayle😁! This is Freida! My husband and I are living on a piece of land for a time in an airstream and there isn’t internet out here. So my son Tim let me use his iPad because he knew I missed seeing your videos. I have such wonderful children! I am loving this book. It is exquisite. Love the whole concept and the vision you have shared with us. And you know you should keep it since you love it so. But since I am late seeing this you probably already sold it. But next time you make one that you absolutely love keep it for you and write notes to your children and grandchildren in it. For the future when they need some wisdom for the day! Thanks Gayle.

[@suebennett8103]

Love this altered book series. You have shared some great ideas. Now, if only I will remember...

[@sharonedwards849]

Have enjoyed the making of this altered book...

[@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS]

So happy I found some Gayle watching time today. Gotta start watching some I’ve missed now. Hope your having a great weekend

[@SammiJarrad]

I don’t think the series was too long, I had fun watching you make this altered book. 😁💜👍🏻

[@anita4291]

Loved to watch how the book became a beautiful journal. Thank you for sharing!

[@terrywarburton2954]

I LOVE this journal! Oh wait...have I said that before? 🤓 This has been a great journaling adventure Gayle! Thank you!

[@junerobbins6871]

The altered book saga is overi love the split plant idea. Those " Happy little accidents" are sometimes the best. Snow in the late spring? Oh wait. You live in MT. I lived in Libby from autum of 1964 to autum of 1978, so I know the weather patterns well.

[@sharondoane6295]

I’ve enjoyed this series Gayle and all your pretty collaging and stenciling. I look forward to the final flip through. Thanks for sharing.

[@lorrainedurgee1761]

Thanks for showing the whole series on altering a book ......just what I needed..March 2020

[@cottagejen]

Really loved watching this altered book series, such an inspiration. Cant wait for more of your craft with me's x

[@NIterB]

Love it, Gayle. I learned so much from your journal process videos and I feel like my first one is going to turn out beautiful. Thanks for inspiring me to try making an altered book!!!

[@suzannemcgee2756]

I have been watching Rachel too. I always overthink when I collage and it takes all the fun out of it. Between your videos and hers I have learned to loosen up a little. Thanks for that.

[@lindaforrer2659]

Gayle, I have enjoyed watching this series. You inspired me to start my first altered book, and I think it’s turning out great! Thank you!

[@bettymetz3746]

Love watching you work Gayle! Rather new to JJ and learn so much. Thanks and God bless.

[@sandyroberts8159]

Thank you Gayle: I learned alot watching this video. :-)

[@Somebody-f7v]

You’re so talented! I enjoy your videos! Thank you 😊

[@maggiequilts]

Sweet Gayle, i love it all. ❤️🥰🇨🇦❤️

[@nancyjustice8524]

Beautiful so great and so many wonderful ideas and processes. Thanks Gayle

[@scraplady51]

Gayle, I have enjoyed watching every minute of this journal. I love listening to you and your stories. It is like you are sitting here talking to me. After watching you I think I am going to try making an altered book. Keep making your videos and I will keep watching them!

[@kylanfrank2713]

I dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me

[@bocaiden1580]

@Kylan Frank Instablaster :)

[@kylanfrank2713]

@Bo Caiden I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@kylanfrank2713]

@Bo Caiden It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you saved my account :D

[@bocaiden1580]

@Kylan Frank No problem :)

[@vickirn613]

Lovely, I just went to Antique Paperie and bought stuff and there's more in my basket...oh my ha ha loooove it all, ty for sharing!

[@sandyheath9314]

I've really enjoyed this series! You've inspired me to try and make one. It has been so fun to watch your process. TFS!

[@barbaralaforge7492]

Don’t apologize. I watched every minute of all of them, not at one sitting but throughout the day. Never have done an altered book before, but when my long list of projects ahead are done it will be on my list. Really enjoy you.

[@catscarborough9944]

I have just loved watching this project, Gayle! I think this would also be a great base for a glue book! Each of the big cards in the pockets are just another two pages to work on, and in the end you have a beautiful sturdy book with your favorite things!

[@Solo3198-]

Thank you, Gayle, for all the inspiration! I have finished my altered book and have loved the process so much. I have decided to list mine as well. Have a wonderful weekend celebrating with your family!

[@ritabillington3818]

Another great series. I am always learning so much from you. Thanks for all the work and thought you put into every video Sending much love xx

[@prange824]

Loved watching this! So many great ideas for a beginner, as myself, to making altered book journals. Thank you so much!

[@dorendaheath3589]

Great book Gayle as usual. Love it!!

[@Lore-kg7ws]

*LOVE IT* *LOVE IT* *LOVE IT* Gayle It's Beautiful !!! xoxoxo : )

[@shondra6]

Simply georguss Gayle. I love the papers you have used. I may have to start one. TFS 🙏💜

[@carolpiakak3830]

This has been a great series. Thank you so much for sharing. I think I'm ready to try an altered book!

[@deeleaman1839]

This is awesome. I don’t know how you will be able to part with it! Such gorgeousness!!!

[@kamp2500]

I really love the stenciling It makes me think I just may need to get some.

[@millicentoneill9549]

Beautiful journal Gayle. I’m kinda sad the series is finished ☹️ but you never let us down and there will be another series love watching you work and having a laugh with you 🤣 Thank you Gayle ❤️

[@gramdeb54]

Enjoyed every minute of this process 😘

[@Lindal010101]

I have loved this series. I started my first altered book yesterday and my printer is exhausted. I am in love with Antique Paperie. Thanks for the videos.

[@carolmc1744]

Will be good to see the final flip through - TFS !!

[@elainetowns1314]

i cant wait to see it all done. so fun gayle!

[@tfntexas]

That was fun watching you use all the different designs!

[@debrasproule7422]

Loved crafting along with you on this book, thanks for the ride! I learned soo much. Thank you. Glad you enjoy your ruler. I have been looking for a deckle ruler myself for sometime now. Find that they are expensive, so I looked up the one you got, but since I’m in Canada, it’s still pretty expensive. It was $28.00 for it ,then the freight is $35.00, yikes!! So I decided to think outside the box and went to my local Dollar store and picked up a pack of 3 plastic rulers and with my dremel tool I up and made my own. Each with a different edge. Turned our great and they work fabulously too. Hope you have a great weekend with your family. 💚

[@bbetter746]

ZoeZoe Sproule That’s a great idea. I may try that with my metal straight edge that I use.

[@timgepner8373]

I know what you mean. That is why I became a crafter because I couldn’t afford to buy the things I loved. Didn’t even know I had it me to do it, all this to say good for you coming up with a way to have what you needed! Love it! This is my sons ipad. My name is Freida.

[@debrasproule7422]

Tim Gepner hi Frieda, thanks for your comment. ❤️

[@theresasuttle711]

Thank you for letting us watch as you create! You inspire me in many ways!

[@CheleinSF]

Gorgeous journal 😍 Thanks for sharing your process.

[@TheFireFlyStudio67]

Hi Gayle I wanted to say thanks for this project. I have tried altering books in the past and not had much luck . This has inspired me to give it another go. This page is so sweet! Always a pleasure watching what you create. xo

[@karenfeeney7285]

Excellent series. Thank you.

[@gaillong1459]

Gayle, you are amazing! Love this journal. So creative!

[@brendaclark2703]

[@laurengilliland8355]

You are precious! Love your videos!

[@Happy2Plan]

Gayle - I absolutely loved watching you create this Journal. I don’t really use digital kits but maybe I should start. Thanks for all the inspiration you share with the world! - hugs Crystal

[@MonicaGarciadivinelight]

Always such a pleasure to be on this creative journey with you!! You know when you thank people for watching and commenting at the beginning of your videos it reminds me of being a very little kid watching Romper Room on TV. I remember always wondering if Miss Maryann would say my name when she looked through her magic magnifying glass, and I get the same feeling every time I watch your videos too!

[@adriawilliams8879]

Love the book! OMG..I have a long list of crafts that need to be done but I think this will take precedence.

[@susanb1388]

Have you seen the make-up "blending brushes" Mrs. Cog showed not to long ago? They are amazing to use with a stencil. Just wanted to share. Fun video, enjoy you so much.

[@TheJournalCottage]

Gayle, I’ve learned oodles of wonderful things watching and crafting with you through the journey of you creating this fabulous journal. We have much in common when it comes to colors and pockets 😉Thank you for taking the time to teach us so many wonderful ideas and for the MANY happy laughs. You are a very gifted and talented person. 🤗 hugs

[@marilyntorsch3970]

It has been so fun looking forward daily to your videos. This is a master piece! Looking forward to the flip through. Have a wonderful celebration with your family. Thank you for sharing 🤗

[@dawnvaliquet6631]

Wow another wake up with Gayle haha nothing like your video and a nice hot cup a coffee sitting in my new craft room ..

[@lindanagle3796]

Once again thank you so much for another great and informative video.

[@ReneesatItAgain]

Beautiful process, Gayle!! I am catching up as time permits, but this looks so fun!! Love all the colors on every page layout!! TFS and inspiration!!

[@donnatolle7920]

Have loved this journal process Gayle. Am anxious to see what's next. I would love to see what you would do with Shirley Temple or Mary Engelbreit, a couple of your favs you've shared with us over the past couple of years. It is KY Derby Day today, excitement everywhere around Louisville.. Almost time for My Old Kentucky Home to be sang by the entire crowd. Always gives me chills. Love and hugs Gayle.

[@suruha2306]

You sure have your hubby trained! LOL I hate the grocery store! I've started looking for your video each day! I get notifications, as well! This was fun! Great ideas! Thank you!

[@Ammiel7]

This is so nice love it all Gayle Im just new and found you been looking for awhile, hence I’m a few years behind 🇦🇺🌸

[@fanshopper8722]

I like this book! So creative. I like the ink stencil from Stamperia. It gives a real vintage look. I hope you have a great weekend with your son and the family. Grtz. Angelique

[@angiechapman9816]

Thank you for showing how to do this from scratch. I've now started my own JJ and really enjoying it. A lot of ideas especially the flip ones. I'm gonna keep watching can't wait for the flip through. Xx

[@veronicawhite398]

Fabulous job, Gayle! I enjoyed every minute. I especially liked the half doily at the end of the book.

[@tashilongthorp2295]

Gayle, I've been enjoying this series so much! I love your comments, one of which has made it into my life quotes journal: "Sometimes life is overwhelming and you've just gotta cry about it!" I'm grateful to see your process - how intuitive it is. I love what you've shared (new pocket techniques especially), all the Etsy sources, and your terrific tearing ruler. I've never seen an altered book before and can hardly wait to start one. Thank you so much! Continued prayers for you and your family.

[@debbieflanagan7788]

Gayle, I thoroughly enjoyed this project. I followed right along with you the whole way. (I even went to the dollar store and bought a book.) Thank you for your inspiration, humor and fun.

[@lindahutchings5394]

Loving the process! I have learned so much and you are like listening to such an enthusiastic friend. Thank you.

[@debbiesavage7107]

I love the stenciled page near the back! So nice! Thank you for sharing!

[@suewolfe5090]

[@justred56]

Thanks for the inspiration, love it! Have a great weekend! 😎

[@paulaniles6457]

Yes to the ephemera book....would love to see you make it!!!

[@WoodlandInspired]

Awesome you were able to use everyone's digitals, looking forward to the final flip through. Tfs

[@billiejoethomason6075]

Beautiful! Really enjoyed. Can’t wait for finished flip thru.

[@helenascott389]

Ohhhh, sad it’s the end of the series, it’s been fun watching you. Wonder what you have in store for us next?? Thank you for spending the time doing the videos, it’s great to be inspired by you but my bank balance needs a holiday!!!! Who am I kidding? Bring on the next instalment. TFS. 😻x

[@pamketron]

Fun series and fun journal. Love how it’s looking. Garden journal next maybe? Hope it warms up soon there. Hugs 🤗💕🌸

[@junebamburg1704]

Gayle I have enjoyed this book so much. It has been an amazing journey, sorry to see it end. My imagination is not as great as yours but I think I might try to make one. This is one of my favorites it has many great ideas. Thank you for making all these videos on the altered book you are a wonderful artist and teacher.❤️

[@vanessarussell7997]

It is beautiful. I enjoyed every watching it grow ❤️

[@lyndafleetwood5771]

Love this series. I have looked forward to each day to see what you will do next in this journal. I think this type of journal would be great for a man or woman, maybe one who doesn't want to write as much but wants to save photos, receipts, ticket stubs, etc. Lots of pockets for these items. Lots of places to glue these items in the journal. Just a thought....

[@jbeaudi]

I loved this series! Sorry it's over. I am looking forward to embellishments, though. You make the best!

[@relaxcutglue]

I’ve really enjoyed this series, I’m a bit sad it’s over! However I’m excited to see what you do next💕

[@rhondacalderone862]

You are so inspiring! I love your process!

[@JeanetteHouse]

Yay, you did it! 👏👏 Loved following this project, thank you, Gayle! Hope you’re having a lovely graduation weekend. 😊x

[@creativespacejeannie279]

[@blancaortiz7035]

🌺Gayle this journal is so beautiful. Great job. Loved all the videos. You are awesome to watch. Tfs. 🙂Blanca

[@erika3293]

So I just have to tell you that for weeks, I have been watching you throughout all your different projects and your bottle of Art Glitter Glue keeps jumping out at me and mocking me because I purchased some of my own but refused to open it until I finished up my other glue. Wellll, yesterday I finally got to using the Art Glitter Glue and oh my. What a dummy. I should have just started using it right when I got it. BEST - GLUE - EVERRRRRR!!! I still remember when you first got yours. Thanks for working out the kinks with the metal tip. (Hee, hee). Can't wait to see the final flip through of this beautiful book.

[@susanbullock5646]

I have so enjoyed this altered book process! Such wonderful ideas, thanks for sharing all the links with us as I have followed and made etsy purchase on some digitals.

[@alisabarott]

Fabulous ! Love all the ideas!
