Hey Cathy, I've noticed that you are often down on yourself in your videos, specially if you make a little mistake or have to take a few seconds to work something out. I love that you talk about people being kind, but remember not to forget to be kind to yourself too, we're all human.

[@CathysGardenllc]

No I’m not down on myself, but thanks for your concern. 💐🥰

[@MamaJLW]

@@CathysGardenllc I get the same comment. I think we’re just confident enough to flag that we made a mistake so viewers or students get it right.

[@Pattiemarie3]

We can’ t help loving you as you are!!! I am here watching one that I never saw shows how knew I am this was five months ago anyway. Once again you are our best bud forever BBF lol. 💕🎶🐩🤗🌺

[@user-vm5ud4xw6n]

I agree! Scripture says we must love our neighbor as we love ourselves. We are all made in the image of God, no matter what you believe. Since that is the case we are coming down on Gods creation when we come down on ourselves as well as others. Being kind starts at home. You do lovely work and making these videos isn’t an easy task. Give credit where credit is due. And that means you too! ❤

[@donnabryson7002]

I am a beginner and never thought of using index cards for booklets. I love these thanks so much for sharing

[@CathysGardenllc]

💐🥰

[@Linda-ml4ls]

You are delightfully creative! Thank you, for allowing us to watch you work. I’m especially impressed with how much you accomplished in a short period of time.

[@ladonnaloehrke2957]

Cute idea! Might work to attach the paper on the outside seam after you staple the papers into the booklet, too, to cover the staples on the outside.

[@CathysGardenllc]

Ladonna, Good idea! 💐🥰

[@danahyatt5760]

Or put the washi tape vertical instead of horizontal.

[@danahyatt5760]

Now what are you going to use this for? They are so beautiful!❤

[@Sujowi]

Or sew in the pages and make a feature of the stitching!

[@stillwaters6104]

You could also sew the seam rather than use staples..just an idea but I love what you created , so pretty 💞

[@CraftingWhimsy_Trish]

Such a cute idea for a little booklet! ❤

[@debbiemartin9005]

Ok, I’ll admit that I didn’t think I would like whatever it was you were doing, but boy was I wrong!!! They turned out GORGEOUS!! Now I want to make some, haha. 😍

[@CathysGardenllc]

👍💐🥰

[@Thedistressedpainter]

I’m going to make about 20 of these so I have them on hand to add to perhaps larger scrapbooks or journals and of course they are splendid alone. Thank you

[@CathysGardenllc]

💐🥰

[@crystalsomekat7172]

I 🌷love🌷 your creative style! These are truly adorable!

[@thebanjolady]

I don’t make journals or scrapbooks. I do make cards, so I have many of the items you used. But I watched this video because I have many index cards that are getting old, so sort of yelloed on the edges, and I knew I wanted to make some booklets to hold notes on my various crafting projects, ie the heel of sox for knitting and other things I just wanted to keep track of helpful hints. I do so many different crafts so this was perfect for me

[@debbiebreen6276]

Cute little booklets, would make a nice little gift for someone.

[@CathysGardenllc]

💐🥰

[@IslandGirl4]

I totally love your little works of art! And the pace of your project is just perfect. I’m saving this link so I can make some of these. Thank you!!

[@CathysGardenllc]

💐🥰

[@debbie2837]

1st timer. Now subscriber. Excited to see what else you’ve got! You are a natural teacher-able to fully & enthusiastically, present a project (instructions, ideas options…) yet w/ just enough chitchat that there’s no wasted time. I love making journals, but don’t really have time or use for them. This will satisfy my need & also be gift-able. They’d be great to give as a ‘to-do list’ or ‘doodle’ pads, or even for kids to draw in when you are out & need them to sit quietly. I am making Prayer Bibles for Christmas gifts & these would be perfect to slip inside as a place to write notes & prayer requests.

[@user-yu4cl7sy6g]

Can photo copy if what you use is old and copyright free

[@CathysGardenllc]

Welcome! 🥰💐

[@terrystephenson8253]

Hi. What are prayer Bibles?

[@debbie2837]

Prayer Bibles are small, compact Bibles where you tab verses per prayer subject, in order to pray sripture back to God, instead of just your own thots, when someone asks you to pray for them. (Or for your own prayer time.) There have always been prayer Bibles, but this lady, Jessica? (Sisterita Club on uTube), reinvented them this way. If you’re a crafter, you can add art, stamping etc. to the pages & make it beautiful! The idea has really taken off & is a wonderful way to pray the Word!

[@sherrytyson4321]

I didn't have any index cards so I cut up some file folders. These are just so darn cute!!

[@ilakaiser3778]

Cute and simple using up-cycled paper, my favorite kind of projects. 💜🐞

[@janetanderson8719]

Just went to the supply section in Walmart and stocked up on index cards in multiple sizes, will make a few of these mini journals tonight!! Thanks!

[@CathysGardenllc]

🥰💐

[@gloriamoore7637]

You said you don't like staples but I make them an element by coloring them with a sharpie.

[@CathysGardenllc]

I like them on others creations but I don’t care for them on mine.🤷‍♀️🥰💐

[@Pattiemarie3]

Yay, I reviewed this video! I made the booklets along with you and they are sweet! Thanks so much 🥰🎶🤗🪻

[@Me-lisa921]

Hi Cathy, I'm just watching this video today, but I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed it. I really liked the idea of making a little booklet/journal out of index cards and using up some of my excess supplies. Thank you sharing. Loved the end product. very beautiful.

[@karenfunk900]

As I was watching this lovely video, I thought a little envelope would make a cute pocket. Thank you for the unique ideas.

[@bettylongshore9594]

Such a fantastic idea!!! They can be massed made in a snap!! Have you ever thought to fold your cardstock over before punching out our tabs? If you slide the paper down so there is a little space where the paper is folded before you punch the tab comes out in one piece.

[@CathysGardenllc]

💐🥰

[@gabriellalovejoy57]

beautiful

[@nancybeebe7622]

Cathy I had to laugh when I seen your foil covered boxes but hey that's a good tip to prevent messes. Love your cards. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@Pattiemarie3]

Well I’ll be darn I lost my second message and I don’t see my first one my second one wasn’t finished I was fixing it oh my goodness. Anyway Cathy !!you’re the greatest thanks so much and keep using those butterflies and whatever else you want to use we learn and that’s what’s so important. you’re the greatest teacher ever I’m your cheerleaders🎉 💕🎶🐩🤗

[@marjo_loves_art]

Cathy, I just wanted to tell you that your videos are exceptional. Your step by step instructions are so easy to follow. And I love the projects that you come up with. Thank you so much for sharing your awesome talent. I love your channel. It is the best. And I love that you encourage kindness. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤

[@CathysGardenllc]

Thank you for the kind words. 🥰💐

[@angelbear_og]

I don't journal and I can't think what I'd ever use it for, but dang if they aren't just precious! 😊

[@CathysGardenllc]

You can always slip one into a satchel to jot things down. Make lists, grocery or you can give them away. 💐🥰

[@suzyqcrafts5440]

I can't tell you how many times I've grabbed a little booklet I've made so I can easily stash in my purse for notes, grocery list, and to do list. These are adorable!🥰

[@donnaleeclubb119]

They are so cute to hand out as a favor at a wedding shower or make a different theme and hand out for a baby shower. So cute.

[@noreenlawlor3700]

Once again Cathy you've come up trumps with these unusual little booklets. Think putting the torn washi tape over the staples was a clever little touch. It added another dimension. Looking forward to making them. I enjoy your videos each day. You are so in command of your craft in the confident way you just get on with it. Please keep up the good work as it is much appreciated.

[@CathysGardenllc]

💐🥰

[@donnaleeclubb119]

These are so cute to make and hand out as a favor for a wedding shower. You can also use different themes to create them for your own needs--a baby shower--anywhere where you want to give the Ladies a little favor for coming and celebrating. I have given many little parties like that in my day, House Warming party for a new house, Bridal Showers, Baby Showers, Pantry Showers for the new Bride. I am showing my age (married 30 years myself). I always made an economical party favor for the guests to take home. This fits the bill.

[@CathysGardenllc]

[@SharaLee60]

These are pretty cute. I made something like these awhile ago! But i love your ideas! You could sew in the pages even before you put the paper on the spine & then the paper or washe tape. I think I would put 1or 2 more papers in there. I love the lace. Thanks for sharing! ☺️🌺🌹

[@ColleenHeins-ib2pr]

So very creative, thank you for sharing. I think I will sew the center seam attaching the pages, and tuck them into any gift baskets I make. Thank you again.

[@sharonhendricks9706]

Hi, Cathy. First time viewer here and I wanted to say how much I enjoyed watching....and listening....to you. Cute idea, which as a card maker my thoughts wondered how I could use this sort of project in a card making class. At the very least this might be fun for a group of people to write notes on the pages to the receiver in a "from the gang" or "from all of us" occasion. I too thought about adding the outside seam cover after stapling which would be the thing to do if you didn't want or like the added layer so either way would work. And as a life-long seamstress I love the stitching! Between my sewing hoard and card making hoard, yes it's actually hoarding because it's way too much to be considered "stuff", I shouldn't have to buy anything to make these cute booklets!
