Good Morning Gayle! Enjoyed what you created today; had summer weather a week ago and now it’s back to spring weather, temps going up and down. Happy there is no snow, plants are blooming nicely. Have a wonderful day. 👍🌸🌸🌸

[@teresahuggins6368]

You don't have to do fascinating stuff Gayle, but you always do! I just like hanging out with a friend.

[@smurfie161]

nice to have a cuppa and watch you craft after a long day

[@JulianaBeasley1967]

And many thanks. Hope you had a good holiday!!

Hello Gayle. I know I'm years behind 😅😅 but I'm still binge watching in spurts 😅😅 better late than never😂😂😂. This is a fun video as all of yours are but I really enjoyed this one. ❤❤❤

[@paulette44martin]

Its so much fun as I learn watching you.

[@jeannedeshazer-ellsworth9995]

I feel like I've been to Gayle school! Thanks for all of these. Between losing my husband, raising my last two of eight and a full time job, then marriage, school and grandchildren, I all but left my creativity behind! You've gotten me all fired up! Thanks

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

So glad, Jeanne! Creativity is such an important part of our souls. Big hugs to you! ❤️

[@anitabyrd5786]

Hi Gayle!!! My daughter showed me how to comment on your videos!!! Yay!!! I love the simple stamped card and stamps on the material you did!!! And...your nails look great!!!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

LPS the littlest Thank you for the comment!! Hugs! ❤️

[@lalagamma4452]

I enjoy watching you work out your art! You always make it a happy day or evening no matter how I felt when I started watching. Like a visit from an old dear friend!! Everything you do is on point! TFS! ⛄XO🌲XO🎅XO🎄XO🎁XO❄

[@CraftingVicky]

Always love crafting with you

[@pamgarozzo]

I so enjoy watching you craft Gayle, you’re so much fun to watch 😍

[@Jules52ut]

I am still displaced and living in an RV as we rebuild our home after Harvey here in south coastal Texas. I have been enjoying watching your videos and hope to soon be able to get back to creating again! You encourage me to jump back in!

[@carolaasen9345]

It's so fun to watch you work your magic! I really need to get into my art room and use up all my little bits and bobs too!!!! Heaven knows just how much! LOL✂️😉

[@conniewalls2491]

I love watching you. I am new to junk journaling and have been collecting things and about to the point of starting my first journal. I learned soooo many different techniques from this video. Would like to see more videos like this one. Keep up the great work Gayle. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

[@paulinebonner7689]

Loved it all especially the little notebooks. Thank you

[@cheryllynn1913]

Lovin' the jazzed up Gayle hands🤗! I also love watching you free-style create. You're such a great teacher! I also loved the Chicken Scratch fabric. I loved it so much that I bought some... 😊

[@sakameg]

So much fun to craft along with your voice in the background. Almost like having a pal over to play!

[@mamiejeanne1]

Gayle, you are so funny !! I love the way you've turned the tag with the trees stamps !! Your mini booklet is soooo cute !! Oh well, i love everything you made, as always !! TFS, Sabine

[@annforsman]

You crack me up. I love watching your excitement with little things. TFS

[@norodrig0522]

You are so creative! Love these ideas! Thanks...

[@christinecameron7225]

So inspirational Gayle. I have fabric to use up that has been pushed in a cupboard for years. Never thought of decorating tags with it. Thanks.

[@nadianardini7513]

I really loved this video Gayle, so much fun. Ioving those strips of fabric you have there. Tfs. xxx

[@Canadian693]

Hi Gayle, happy to watch another of your videos, while having my morning coffee! TFS!

[@jeanneblondewomanstamping9788]

Sheesh. I wish I could get as much done in a day as you do in an hour, Gayle. You’re an inspiration in your productivity! 🤣🤗

[@valyvalou2270]

Thanks Gayle, loved the little note books and loved to see how to use all scraps one has and make them into something usable. Hugs from the land of Oz.

[@debbiesapp7109]

Your so fun to watch and talk to. Lol. I kept telling you to but your lid on your glue. To funny. Your such a joy. Males me smile. Thank you so much for sharing. 😀🎄☃️🎅

[@2ndChanceCrafting]

That would been me not ever seeing them before. I have never been in a quilting store. That is about to change though! Great video. Enjoyed it I have an expandable file folder FULL of scraps. Have a great rest of your weekend!

[@WoodlandInspired]

What a great idea to have stuff on the ready especially for next year, I think Christmas season always creeps up on us. Thanks so much for the inspiration.

[@sabinerie]

It’s time .... to save the bees. So the tag with the beestamp is my favourite one. This afternoon I am enjoying to craft with you once again. Rainy weather, hubby at work, chocolate and tea are ready :-))

[@sharonedwards849]

I enjoy just listening to you..wish I lived by you I would craft around the clock with your enthusiasm being contagious.

[@marilyntorsch3970]

What a joy to share the morning with you. I enjoyed your creative sharing. I guess you could hear me saying don’t forget the little girl. She turned out so cute. Have a nice rest of your day 🤗

[@debbiebooker1407]

Enjoyed all of this video! You inspire me.

[@ddladybug]

Good morning friend....best way to start my weekend ... I’ve been doing the same thing using up itty bits ... BTW, love your painted nails! .... have a wonderful day .. ❤️🐞

[@colleenlondon5605]

Nice save on the stamped fabric :) Another fun to watch video and I picked up lots of neat ideas xoxoxo

[@theramblincrafter]

So fun, Gayle! I love all of the goodies you made! Hugs~~Chelle

[@patriciacummins4613]

Good morning Gayle. Nice spending time with you and getting more good ideas. :)

[@lacreshaflowers5421]

Ephemera is fun!!😊♥️

[@cynthiamccoy845]

Lots of cute ideas!

[@scrappycavie5151]

I enjoyed this video. I have been watching your videos for so long that I catch myself tapping my fingers when I think too. LOL.

[@Kathyjones55]

I think those rolls of fabrics are called jelly rolls. You amaze me how you think of so many things so quickly. It takes me forever! Love your videos and your personality.🙂

[@roseslacenlaughter7513]

I have those dictionary word stamps and forgot all about them until watching this! I will have to dig them out and use them! Love what you do!

[@sunfish4]

so much fun watching the process, TFS

[@patriciahavill8099]

Just love crafting with you on a rainy Sunday afternoon in OZ.

[@craftycat7212]

Great tips and ideas Gayle. I am going to make some of those notepads! I have done them with paper but not fabric, thank you.

[@terrypi1]

I love that you don’t waste anything.

[@cynthiamostacato7894]

Hey Gayle....crafting along with you. Working on (2) Fairy Journals for two of my granddaughters. Love listening to you as I craft. Love your laugh as usual. Like having you right here. Thanks.

[@sabinerie]

Cynthia Mostacato it is realy like having her right here .... your granddaughters can be proud of you, such a lovely idea.

[@mprairiedale]

thank you for all the ideas!!!

[@MissDaisyParsley]

Great ideas and tutorial! Crafting along with you tonight!

[@lindabloom6666]

Hi Gayle, I have really enjoyed this one using all the scraps. I am ashamed to admit that I used to throw them all away when I started, (Gasp!) but try not to think about that anymore. I crafted with you today, but I sewed a squishy pink bunny out of Minky fabric. Tomorrow, I'll stuff it. Thanks for the encouraging words on making my own videos! Linda

[@CarolMartineArt]

Great fun, Gayle. Hugs, Carol

[@cazyoung5887]

Great love watching you create tfs

[@kellys1722]

Gayle I love the conversations you have with yourself, you make me feel normal 🤣❤❤

[@jeannedeshazer-ellsworth9995]

Me too! 🤣🤣🤣

[@danawegner9572]

Great ideas! Especially for a beginner like me.

[@rhodalewis2766]

Love this video. When you said you needed to add something to the front of that little booklet I'm saying, oh use the little girl, use the little girl, she would be perfect! And you did.

[@janetnieves5056]

Love ur ideas

[@lynneaberr1878]

The retired Stampin Up set is called Define Your Life. I found it locally this past month.

[@ruthportway5198]

Hi Gayle, I think what people are saying that they need is a ‘ long arm stapler’ which should be available from any good stationers. I find mine so useful as it can easily reach to the middle of a 12 x 12 page and is great for stapling small booklets etc. TFS all your idea

[@Meggyp0p]

Tuesday Morning frequently has rolls like that on clearance, or additional discount, above their normal store sale price.

[@CreationsbyKahaulani]

I'm sure everyone went searching for that stampin up definition stamp set🥰 I know I just did,even though this video is over a year old.....LOVE the stamped muslin fabric🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@mcharland72]

Define Your Life... I got this one on Ebay for 15.00... love this set too and have used it on my journals too. Hugs and TFS

[@debbieshepley7594]

Thanks for the inspiration. Once I'm done baking cookies I'm off the clean off my craft table lol

[@zion4802]

Awesome channel Lovely videos 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

[@bettybutler1686]

Thanks for this. It’s after midnight on April 30th, 2021. You’re off on retreat so I’m cutting out ephemera (Woman in Baseball 1928-68) for cards, etc.... for TN/rtfs. Living the old paper quality so whatever doesn’t have a picture on it I’ll keep, may have enuff to make an altered book. Mmmmmm not bored at all. Luv that you got so jittery giggley over that Blackett gooey inky pad. A Bob Ross kind of feeling over a new tube of Majic White.... or was that Mr Alexander? Time flys

[@VintageBohemian]

Love these. Suggestion - try stenciling or stamping the same image behind the prominent images in a lighter shade as a shadow. Those Xlrg stamp pads are great to have & are worth re-inking w/needed. Love your nails. I think nice looking nails add alot to videos. TFS, Toodles

[@DebbyLong777]

I prefer the Ranger Archival. I use their Sepia and Coffee colors to Distress vs. Distress inks. Why because they are waterproof. This has been relaxing o watch Your Nails look festive 🎄😊

[@shawnabwilliams]

Btw I got a Tim holtz paper pack like yours too! Somebody went crazy with the glue.

[@shondra6]

oh how cute. So ...hmmmm tomorrow, I dont have muslin here but i will try this on calico and homespun see if it works .... thanks for sharing..

[@JulianaBeasley1967]

Hi Gayle!! Long time!! I finally found the time to watch this video. Thanks for showing your process. I have so many scraps too and one of these days will make time to use them since I would feel terrible tossing them. I noticed in this video that in the upper left hand corner you have a stash of brown glimmering lace and I wanted to know where you got it from. Thanks if you remember and I am still using the paper I bought from you!! Hugs, Juliana

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Juliana! I’m no help with the lace, because I got it in happy mail! So sorry! Happy New Year! 🎉❤️

[@JunkJournalTreasures]

Enjoy watching you craft! Loved it when you messed up stamping that phrase on fabric so you just stamped all over the piece to make it work, lol! Sometimes we just have to roll with it, right?! 😊😊

[@mspaula0509]

hey @ 16:00...I'm just sitting and watching...not boring

[@pinkrose1990]

You have great ideas :}

[@delgadojmar]

So now I’m going to stamp on fabric! ...Janet

[@ScrappySusan]

Those sets of fabric strips are also sold as jelly rolls in quilt shops.

[@Michelle-CraftyWACatLady]

Those strip rolls are called a Jelly Roll, they have strips from a full line of fabric in them.

[@SammiJarrad]

😁💜👍🏻

[@marthaellis4539]

my dear gail I apsolutly love your videos, I have learned a lot from you, I resently left my husband, and in mythings I fould a lot of golden books. would you

[@rachellee.9389]

Throw it away? Re-inker, darlin', re-inker.

[@sylviaortega6334]

Gayle you make so much with every bit of paper fabric etc. How did you decide when to discard material- love your videos

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Sylvia, I only throw away the tiniest of pieces. I usually can see some use in most pieces. Like the tiny file folder pieces that ar snow word tiles!! It’s probably why I have a giant box of scrap paper!! Haha! ❤️

[@marthaellis4539]

like them. all I would like is atrade of embellishments

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thanks for thinking of me, Martha, but I have literally dozens of Little Golden Books, so I’ll have to pass. Do you belong to Newbie Junk Journal Makers on Facebook? I’m wondering if there would be someone there that could use them? Thanks again for thinking of me though! ❤️

[@karisue57]

Gayle, did you actually throw away the little fabric ends from the little notepads? LoL . I wanted you to use those on the circles. 45 ish minutes... I get creative when I watch you. Thank you!!

[@raggedyann4372]

CUTE! Love to use up, what I’ve saved🤣🤣🤣 What do you clean your Rubber Stamps with??

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Well, when I clean them...which isn’t often (I’m a horrible stamp mom), I use a stamp cleaner by Ranger called Archival Ink Cleaner. ❤️

[@brendagraw3729]

Gayle, could you tell me the finished size of a traveller,s notebook, please. Great ideas for cards, thank you 😃 I too have been stenciling the backgrounds of tags and papers. Looks more finished as you have discovered.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Brenda, the “official” size of a traveler’s notebook is 8 1/2 by 4 1/4. But I make mine 8 1/2 by 4 1/2. It seems silly to me to cut 1/4 of an inch of every single page! And they still fit just fine in any traveler’s notebook cover. Hope that helps! 😁❤️

[@anitawelch5355]

I so enjoy watching your videos. I've been going through some older videos and I have to say I love your red nails in these! I have a question about thread. What is your go to easy color for using in your journals? I dont sew except for my journals and I use mainly a tan color myself. Also does the thread even have to be a higher quality? What is your preference?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I just use general purpose thread. I like a medium grey and for grungier projects, brown. 😁❤️

[@vivalaresin8311]

Love watching you craft, what kind of camera are you using?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

My iPhone. ❤️

[@DebbyLong777]

Just love those little fabric notebooks. For someone who hasn’t been physically able to sew and for those without machines.....would you ever put them in your Etsy shop ? Maybe too much hassle . Thought I would ask

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Debby! I haven’t listed any handmade ephemera in my shop, because I use it up pretty quickly with all the journals I make. I think it’s a great idea though...maybe I’ll get to it one day! ❤️

[@sillyfatmoocow]

Anyone looking for them strips, they are called jelly rolls, :-)

[@karenkarlik668]

Hi gayle, just curious. Some of your videos you use the initials LGB. Or LBG. Just wondering what you mean there. Love you

[@christinahall2587]

Karen Karlik Little Golden Book

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yep, Little Golden Book! ❤️

[@joannedonovan9489]

Hey Gayle, what is the "December Daily" that you mention in the Dec. 2018 videos?!!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

It’s a journal where you do a page in the journal every day of December. I have a playlist December Daily from last year if you want to take a look at things I did. ❤️

[@joannedonovan9489]

@@gayleagostinelli_ct Thank you! Like there's not enough pressure in December!!!

[@jacquelinewale1231]

Do you wash your stamps after every use xx

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I don’t...I’m a terrible stamp mom! 🥴❤️

[@maggiequilts]

Lace? Xx

[@nancybeebe7622]

Gayle what is your December daily. Sorry just trying to figure. lol

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Nancy, December Daily is just a journal that one works with every day of December. It’s for memory keeping, writing, decorating whatever one wants to do in it. Have you watched the videos I’m posting daily of it. I think those videos will show you what I’m doing in mine. ❤️

[@lindasueplantsforyou263]

Hi Gail. My name is Linda and I have a KZbin channel called Linda sue plants for you. I also tend to make long videos. But my loyal Followers keep telling me the longer the better and I feel the same way about yours. I have been very ill and I’m battling cancer right now. I also broke my back so now I am bedridden. I could watch you for hours. You have a higher class technique than most. I hope you won’t take offense but do you have stock in the scissor manufacturer? You seem to have a new one in every video. Lololol. Take care
