Thank you, Gayle for still posting even though it's been a struggle this day. Yes! I totally can identify with having one of those days where everything seems like a struggle. You could have just not posted this and keep the illusion that everything is always alright, but you shared your humanness with us and that's was a gift. Thank you. xxx

Love seeing all your bits and pieces come together to form something so beautiful! : )

Oh my I absolutely love crafting along with you Gayle

[@joannedonovan9489]

I'm finding that I lean toward flowers & lace, even though I'm not a "girlie girl"!! Thanks for another great collage video. (I'm soaking them up, trying to learn!!)

[@lidimaparis4799]

Dear Gayle, Just wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying your videos. You have been my constant companion as I recover from a "rotten cold"! I have you on autoplay so the videos are scrolling through and I have not jumped in to "Like" them but I really do. Thank you so much for the ephemera series particularly. Lots of inspiration there.

[@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS]

So cute. Love that pink lace

I had a Birthday day out to a fabulous vintage bazaar yesterday, so today, my brain is sludge and my body is in payback mode (because of my ME/CFS/fibro). All that to say that I especially loved this video today and appreciate your channel so much. Rose pink with grey is a favourite colour combination of mine - so soothing - so it was lovely to watch these pretty tags come together and just listen to your chat and laughter, without any pressure to participate. Thank you, Gayle! xx And now I realise I missed the last one, so going back to watch that next... 😂 #brainfog #sludgehead #ifyoubumbledididntnotice

Hi Gayle, always happy when your videos pop up. Glad it's a long one because I always learn so much from you. My family and friends just don't get this whole journal thing. It's very disappointing so when I move next month, hopefully I find people that enjoy it as much as I do. Thanks for sharing your time .😊 Your tags were beautiful.

[@tfntexas]

We’ll take back control wherever we can! Sounds like a good plan to me 😜! Great looking tags.

[@brendacooley6867]

On the tag with the big pink flowers, I think that big, pink flower on your papers would look good on that tag.

[@veronicawhite398]

So pretty, Gayle.

[@aminihobby-kelley]

These tags really turned out fantastic!!

[@Jenny-W1910]

i LOVE the jar under the tree!! you cleaned your mat, cut the chunk of the book spine off.... it's the little things sometimes isn't it? i agree about cleaning and/or organizing when i'm feeling like things are out of control. even something simple like my socks drawer or spice cabinet. it just feels so good to have things organized and easier to find. tfs gayle, the tags are really pretty 💕

I think it's easier to put glue on your tag, lay it on your backside paper, and then cut or tear it out. Then you really don't have to line anything up.

[@patbrez3079]

Yes, More epherma ideas, ty.

[@lindahutchings5394]

Question: my daughter loves the wizard of oz, how do I start a journal with that theme? New to journal making so appreciate your help. Love the way you walk us through the projects.

[@barbaralaforge7492]

Linda Hutchings Linda. I mostly make theme journals. Graphic45 has a great kit, and I find lots of pics on the internet. I either take a screen shot or print it out. I can send my screen shots to amazon and get them printed on matte. I find it is cheaper than using my printer. Just look, so many free images. Gotta get creative!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi LInda! You can start with finding some Wizard of Oz books. You could either do an altered book (I have tutorial videos) or use any pictures to make ephemera and use pages from the book as pages in your journal. Also, if you have a printer, you could search on Etsy for “Wizard of Oz” and purchase a digital kit, so you’d have themed papers to work with. Their may me Wizard of Oz themed ephemera on Etsy too. Hope those ideas will get you started! Have fun with it! ❤️

[@lucy7b]

Linda Hutchings try abe books they are second hand. I’ve found loads of good books there.

[@alisonwiles3132]

Hi Gayle, so interesting in collaging! It's a great idea with gluing the ephemera on the book but wondering if the books can be used further for anything? Xx

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I’m not quite sure I understand your question, Alison, but Ill try and answer. I glue on the book so I don’t get my mat messy. Then I use those gluey pages as the bases for journal cards, tags and pockets that I collage and decorate. All those then go in future journals. Does that make sense? If I need to clarify, let me know! ❤️

[@alisonwiles3132]

@@gayleagostinelli_ct ok I understand with gluing on the book to protect your mat, it's a neat way of no mess😉 and the pages do get used up too for further collages etc. Thanks for explaining as I thought the book pages you use to glue on would go to waste. ☺💕

I’m so glad you heard me yelling use the butterfly stamp lol

[@dellajohnson5413]

And then you didn’t hahahaha

[@pamelal210]

Gayle, I noticed that you used book pages to create your tags - but then covered up all the text. I realized that I've been trying to embellish my book page tags in a way that keeps some of the text uncovered - as if that were the purpose of creating the tag from a book page - and getting a bit frustrated about it as well. So - do you use book pages then as the substrate or your "canvas" - without regard to the text on the page - as you would if it were kraft type paper or a manila shipping tag? I'm way too uptight about "rules" - thanks for helping me to realize that. After watching your video, I went back to my studio and proceeded to completely cover two of my book page tags with piano paper! Progress! 😀😉

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yes, you’re exactly right. It’s like the book page is the “canvas” or substrate. These are “gluey” pages that I’ve used to glue on and instead of throwing them away, I’m reusing them to create the base for journal cards or tags or whatever! ❤️

[@pamelal210]

Thanks, Gayle :D

Gail, wonderful job on EVERYTHING you make, also where did you get your sticker holder from? Thank you.

Hi Gayle Here comes a dumb question but I'm completely new to printables. I didn't know they existed. ( yes I've been living under a rock). I see people say you print on matte photo paper. So it's actual photo paper? I know I'm sorry 🤔😖 I just want to get quality and no waste my time printing on crappy paper.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Sometimes I print on regular copy paper, especially if I’m using the prints for collage. But otherwise, if I want a great, crisp print, I print on #32 matte photo paper from Red River Paper Co. online. ❤️

Take a look at the HP Envy photo printer. It prints full size pages and many other sizes. When you sign up for Instant Ink it is extremely cost-effective.
