Embellished Envelope Page - Journal with me #4

[@sulu758]

Nik is the most fun person to listen to and I learn right along!

[@linnfowler3825]

I love your conversation as you work. Especially when I visualise you alone in a room, talking away. I'm always so blown away with all the details you keep adding to a single page. You've definitely inspired me to step up my game to add more and more. Thanks for sharing.

[@sharonjohnson8713]

Nik, i absolutely love listening to you as you work. I put on the videos so I can just listen to you as i color or journal. I love watching you work and your projects too. Keep on doing your wonderful videos.

[@susafoe]

Besides seeing your beautiful creations I love your voice and your humor. I'm so happy that I found your channel.

[@moonlightknitting]

Not only is this educational and inspirational - also so entertaining!

[@patriciathornhill4338]

I live in England and you should be available on the NHS.(National Health Service] , your videos are a tonic. You are a very talented, funny lady. Thank you.

[@NiktheBooksmith]

[@abundantlyyours6861]

Having a whole week of Mondays! I was totally depressed and then your video popped up! You are better than medication! Thanks so much for making me smile and laugh today!!! Way cool envelope! Love the closure!

[@waboosje]

Hi there Nik the booksmith. You are so much fun to watch. I live what you did with the envelope. Just the other day I was helping my granddaughter making an envelope-flipbook.

[@maggiequilts]

Nik! You entertain as well as teach!! I have watched this video a few times to learn as well as being entertained!! I love your style! Keep up the good work! ❤️🥰🇨🇦❤️

[@StaceysStash]

I really liked this page. I love how you do the page and then just stick it in your journal, it's a different way of doing things.

[@teresamarine9723]

NIk you are so fun to listen to. thank you for letting us in on your crafting time, i learn so much!!!

[@cathylozano1812]

Ur so much fun to listen to lol i can't help but smile at u whole time. Ur just enjoyable to listen to while ur having fun creating 😆

[@Cyrilmc222004]

Nik, that’s really really awesome and stunning. I really really love 💖 that envelope ✉️ transformation!!!!!!!! And your so very very talented and clever and entertaining. xxx Mags

[@gailagilliland3268]

I love that envelope journal pocket you made. I am making lots of envelope pockets but never one like this. So this style is now on my to do list. Thanks for sharing your process!

[@caroldurst1855]

Okay, Little Missy, (I can call you that because I am 74 years old...lol). You 😂 crack me up! Thank you for sharing your talent with me...you are truly gifted! Love and smiles in Jesus😘

[@sweetcurly28]

You crack me up! And the longer the video the better! I could watch and listen allllll day!

[@NiktheBooksmith]

aww thank you, Sue! 🤗

[@annieo9468]

Me too. I think it's because 'Nik' says out loud, the exact same dialogues that we all have when we're creating, when nobody's watching. lol

[@wendysmith604]

I love this idea! You are so much fun to watch and listen to😊

[@Saturdays.Script]

I love the way the crackly pages sound when you flip through your book.

[@AntyPam4250]

Awesome project. Easy to follow, fun, and I love how it turned out. 👏🏻

[@christinetuhong7140]

I love this idea and the way you did it. your journal is gonna be adorable... Love also your struggle with the poor glue stick. !! it arrived in the wrong house!!! Hi HI HI hope to see soon the next Journal with me . Bye

[@C1Chantal]

You’re hilarious which keeps bringing me back to your videos!! Long videos are a good thing 😉 love your talent. 👍🏼

[@Retha416]

Loved how your envelope turned out. You make it all look so easy and are so enjoyable to watch.

[@jackiegermann9556]

Ci just found your videos and I gotta tell you that you are a joy to listen to.

[@MissDaisyParsley]

Thank you for ending my day with laughter! You crack me up as well! Beautiful journal page! I like the idea for the clasp on the envelope! I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos!

[@jennywesterman2405]

Great idea! I am so glad that I am not the only one who sings nonsense to her supplies😆 Just a FYI repositionable glue is a life saver when working with little kids. Due to the fact that they hate the first 50 spots they glue down something.

[@NiktheBooksmith]

I can see what you mean! "no...not there....how about here!....or maybe..."

[@susancurtin7669]

Lovely to watch you again! Thank you.

[@jjjoy7887]

Thanks for inspiring me with a creative solution to a nagging challenge I’ve been having with a wedding journal for my niece ... and for sharing my Saturday morning coffee. You’re a gift.

[@jodihaganman6627]

I have just recently come across your videos and I enjoy them so much! I have just started my first junk journal. I am making it for my grand daughter 's 13th birthday! Fingers crossed it turns out. Thank you!

[@alilbitshabbyjubri6942]

Watched it again and wow it's awesome! Great work, Thank You for sharing!!!!!

[@dawnsunpath2461]

awesome addition to your journal... you are soooo creative and such an inspiration ~ tfs!

[@donnawong9610]

I love listening to you. You are so funny at times . I do laugh a lot. but it is a fun way to learn

[@lisajmascord8183]

Love that envelope and the little flick through of book to date. So tantalising. Can’t wait to see more.

[@lilywhytewallis6897]

Just so clever... love your idea with the envelope! Tfs!

[@bonnerdebbie]

So much fun to watch your videos. Envelope came out great

[@rochellehentze947]

I love this video I have been able to use the idea several times. So many possibilities. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@wandakirton1844]

Oh My Stars! You crack me up.... I just found you on KZbin and have been binge-watching. I love it all. Thanks so much for sharing and making my day on this rainy day in North Carolina.

[@beverlyharrison9503]

Lol you are so funny. You always have me in stitches every episode. Just love you

[@ramonalee1]

😂 It’s only temporarily repositionable. Once it dries, it’s permanent. Love everything you make. It’s mesmerizing.

[@andreamussman6211]

I followed this tutorial and loved my results. I had to use what I had on hand but like you said "winner, winner, chicken dinner!"

[@beverlystout7841]

Very nice envelope page, Nik. You can talk as long as you like and your followers will stay with you. At least this one will. You sound a lot like me when I am working on my journal except my dog is the only one listening. :) And I occasionally cuss just a little. lol

[@NiktheBooksmith]

😄

[@srdiow]

You really crease me up with your commentary!!! Brains and comedy?....excellent combination....great video..thanks!

[@NiktheBooksmith]

😄 thanks!

[@schusterrn]

LOVE IT:-D. Greatly appreciate you sharing your wonderful creative talent!!!

[@alilbitshabbyjubri6942]

I have NEVER laughed so hard at a video as I did with this one. You are too FUNNY! I love it and OH the envelope looks awesome.! "Nik's Comedy Hour" , LOL !

[@cathiewatts6743]

Oh Nik you have me in stitches love watching and listening to you and yes I talk to you as if you are in the room lol thanks for the tutorial xx

[@peggykempf7555]

Well this is my second time watching this!!! I love this envelope page and also this one makes me laugh!!! I just love listening to you so much!!! And I want to make an envelope page for my journal, your ideas are the best, thanks so much!!! Hugs💗👵

[@maggiewalker9194]

Love listening to your thought process. What a hoot!!

[@shirleymccullough2515]

So much fun, it also is a great use of a envelope ! I for sure will be making 1 for my book. I agree with other comments here that your videos could be longer cause it’s the best entertainment going !! Thanks a bunch Nik, it’s always great watching you create something fun, useful and have to make it for me .

[@pamwilkinson1981]

I am so glad somebody (?) recommended you to me! You are so funny and I love your style!

[@Rennisfun]

You are so like me with the humor and funny accents lol The whole glue stick ranting was exactly what I was thinking and glue sticks are evil lol

[@DizziDot1]

Love your work and sense of humor greetings from Cape Town, South Africa xxx

[@beverlyricketts596]

When I first started making cards I was using photo glue sticks which dried and looked nice, now looking at some of the older cards I had made I noticed that the corners were lifting. The glue looked fine at the time but it didn't last. Now most of the time I use double sided sticky tape. Works perfectly!

[@redparrot53]

Lol, the process was hilarious but the finished envelope is AWESOME!!

[@juliesantos3656]

Hi Nik, My day wasn't going so good and then I got a notification. I love this page, as always awesome art work. I want thank you for sharing and for making my day better.

[@NiktheBooksmith]

awww you made MY day, Julie, thank you! =)

[@denadavis1605]

Love your videos, you crack me up and I love your projects!,

[@patriciawilliams9972]

I love these pages. I have so many photos I can use doing something like this. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@MixdJuxt]

I can think of two purposes for the repositional glue, making mini post-it note type of pads or to set up your layout so it holds while you flip things around before committing to the glue.

[@purplepixie274]

Gillian Ivy or sticking tracing paper etc onto other paper to print?

[@MixdJuxt]

Cleverness! Bet there are tons of ways to use it ;D

[@purplepixie274]

Gillian Ivy I think Jen of Eves uses repostionable glue/tape to stick all her templates onto her work books. She can easily pull them off the plastic pages, place them on paper where the sticky helps them stay in place while she draws round them, then just sticks them back on pages rather than in pockets. That way she can easily identify all her pieces quickly. I must admit I don't find most regular glue sticks don't stay stuck with time or movement. They're great for kids or on top of double sided tape to allow for quick adjustment into position, but I wouldn't use them for anything major or archival generally.

[@ShinyBubbbbles]

Purple Pixie Ooo that is a great tip about using the glue stick over the tape!

[@Loftusgirl]

You crack me up! I think we are long lost sisters. I always talk with weird accents too, its just what I do. Very fun video and beautiful envelope. I just hit subscribe button.

[@paulabarnett3465]

Hi, I just wanted to tell you how much I love you work, it is beautiful! You have some great ideas.❤️🙆❤️

[@AzaleaLala]

I felt like putting The Water of Leith on was the point of no return. Hahaha. The envelope is awesome. I just love these little collages. That closure is genius! You are entertaining as always. :D

[@wendytaylor3714]

Love your videos. Talent creativity and humour thusly. Thank you.

[@sharleneknaus3664]

I've never used glue sticks for my paper crafts because I've had no luck. You make me LOL and that is one of the many reasons I enjoy your videos. I love your idea for the enclosure. Another Masterpiece!

[@MsCarolinaDreamz]

When that metal piece turned around and closed the envelope, I started clapping! LOL

[@jeansimrose1803]

I love your sense of humor! Great style too!

[@saskiaseaglass9504]

Brilliant closure! 😊

[@cynthiasmith5138]

You are a total Hoot.. I like your style. Just nothing to big of a deal.. la-lolly layback.. I am so with you. How fun. Thusly and such..

[@janevincent7103]

I love this tute. Your are witty and funny, and goofy. My kind of gal (like me-lol). I will try it soon as I wrote all the directions down. Thanx much, Nik. XOXOJane

[@katyscraftboutique6500]

LOVE THIS! especially the closure idea! Thanks for sharing!

[@libbypeterzell7605]

Wow...just recently found out about you. You are amazing...love this video!! Can't wait to see all the others.

[@suek5474]

I watch this video every time I need a little “pick me up.” Thank you, thank you.

[@teresa-ux8db]

This was probably the funniest video of yours that I've watched!!! I love you 🌺😄

[@NiktheBooksmith]

ha! thanks, Teresa ;)

[@UandMeGod]

so cute!! I am new on here and to you and you are seriously a breath of fresh air for me to watch and learn from!!! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!

[@MissGroves]

This was so much fun to watch, thank you!

[@susannaeasdale1162]

Love it Nik, great idea will definitely do this....

[@elainekellybryant3787]

On how I want a best friend like yours! I have been looking t for a punch like that! TFS! Kelly

[@NiktheBooksmith]

EK Tools...Edge Binder Punch....or something close to that. Amazon.com =)

[@nanviolet4933]

Thank you for everything that you do! Are an inspiration. They like so much! 🎓🎓🎓

[@kayhammock]

Hi Nik. Yikes. I didn't know that glue sticks came in repositionable. I'll have to check my stash! Great envelope!! Hugs

[@kimberlydragone6015]

Awesome project. I’ve watched all the videos😍 thanks.

[@49Nutmeg]

Great job!! I love everything about it!!

[@jensjunk5688]

Bahahaha “you have ONE job!!” You make me laugh so hard sometimes!! 😂😂😂 much needed! Lol!!

[@lisaowen2930]

What an amazing tutorial. You make it look so easy. I was giggling because these are the things we all say to ourselves when we are creating. ‘Repositional glue’ what kind of a joke is that lol. When you were choosing where to put it, I was shouting ‘that page, that page’ when you picked the perfect spot! Oh and being Scottish, I loved the mention of Edinburgh!

[@byMarceloCarbone]

You're great!!!! The first video of yours that I whatched was the Seraphina's one. Just amazing... but, like another person said, you're not only talented, but are soooo funny and sweet. LOVE IT! Today I went to a flea market and bought a lot of antique stuff... now I have to make my own project!

[@desireestewart-jordan9630]

Very nice envelope! Loved all the commentary - your so cute and funny!

[@corinnecurtis5145]

Wow this is really fantastic!! Love the idea! Tfs

[@ritacupano620]

I love the enclosure! Great idea.

[@celiagaboury8963]

Doogieflomper! I have one too! I love that word!

[@melangegirl]

Thank you Nik for a great idea for brittle pages, which I have plenty of. You must notify Merriam-Webster of "frankenpages, frankentags, et al" because it is now a thing around KZbin. And I can say I heard it first from Nik the Booksmith. Cool.

[@NiktheBooksmith]

ha! well, I'm not the first one to glue/sew scraps together, that's for sure! But, I think my name for them kinda stuck =) Thanks melangegirl!

[@10151957june]

You're so much fun, Nik! Cute envelope!!!

[@ClareCreationsAL]

LOVE this page! Thanks so much for sharing your talent!!

[@nohemyramos234]

I loved loved it!! And you are just adorable..😘

[@lynnharrell303]

Have done the glue stick mishap before. Love all your little accents. Great idea with the envelope.

[@debrastone3536]

You re so creative, I love watching you work.

[@LoesOcreations]

Another great page! Hahaha that glue! So much fun to watch your vaaadios (my silly accent ☺). I enjoy seeing how you put everything together. Thank you so much for doing this! Loes

[@ChattylaineCreates]

Yes the 's' would be shillings and a 'd' would be old pence! Love watching you create... you are fun to watch ... don't care how long the video is always entertaining.... tfs 😊😊

[@robinsummers9141]

"Don't laugh.... I know you are laughing out there"! I am dying over here cuz yes I was laughing!

[@sophiamaria8545]

I gasped when I saw your "little letter carrier of like stuff." 😍

[@beautifulexpressions2284]

I absolutely love ur videos Nik! Ur super talented and u crack me up every time 😁 the closure for the envelope is awesome!!!!

[@JournalsInTime]

Bahahahahaha....'repositionable glue....ridiculous'....lmao. I did at one point wish I could get that stuff here but I can't for the life of me remember what I wanted it for!!! Great page and great giggles as always :-) Thank you my dear for being you xxx

[@lizlepp5036]

love it..it is so much fun watching and learning from you..with the glue stick you can use it with tape so you have some time putting something on a page..just wanted to pass it on.that is the only thing I find that it is good for. lol

[@PaperInspirationsAU]

I love your videos. Always entertaining! Oh, and informative. 😁 ❤️

[@leettayarlot4558]

Yes, I laughed ! Thanks for sharing. Very enjoyable. ❤

[@carolrigby186]
