Forgotten Friends Friday! - Finishing Last Year's

[@donitamoore9748]

I really enjoy these random ephemera decorating days. I like when you show it doesn’t take much to finish some pieces as we tend to overthink it sometimes. We had another day of clouds, fog and high in low 30’s today. It’s been like this for a week but the sun is to start shining tomorrow! Have a blessed day!

[@susanchamberlain9226]

Good morning!! Blue skies and mild for the year atm!😊 Loved today, definitely an unhoard day!👍 Get your grandson to sing his part and have your son film it!❤ You should use 'you're just jealous because the voices only talk to me' in an Alice journal!😊 Have a good day!😁💕

Morning Susan! ❤

[@kathyude9457]

I love forgotten friends Friday and this is along with using up stuff. It’s really fun to watch!

[@tfntexas]

That is awesome that you got so many pieces moved to the done box! Some didn’t even need anything. I’m sorry you aren’t able to go see your grandsons play. Maybe someone will videotape it. Stay warm. We’re having gray, rainy, and dreary days right now in Texas but at least the extreme cold is gone for now.

[@billiejoethomason6075]

Good afternoon Gayle. Such fun to see some of the old Roxy’s Challenge pieces again. Some I remember & some I don’t. Know it feels good to get from unfinished box to the finished box. We are having spring like weather last few days. Our average daily temperature is 54. The past two days have been 75+. 🤷‍♀️. Plus lots of rain. My pastures look like a lake & my pond behind the house is overflowing & running around the dam. Last week we were freezing with 17 degree mornings. Spring this week with thunderstorms & back to our normal temps next week. Welcome to Georgia 👍

The hokey pokey IS what it's all about :) At least in my world. That made me giggle. Have a blessed day. Hope it starts to warm up there soon. We are just getting the typical rain for Seattle right now. Highs in the low 50's.

[@cherriberri7161]

Good Morning Gayle! Its been in the high 30’s/ low 40’s the past few days and rainy here. It’s fabulous watching you complete different stashed ephemera pieces that were unfinished. We get to see all different ephemera ideas again for inspiration. Have a beautiful day and thank you once more for sharing your creativity! Hugzzz💖

Good morning Gayle! This was such a fun video. You finished up a bunch of really cool pieces. It has warmed up to the 50s here the last few days and we've got rain now. The sump pump in our basement has been running like mad. We're also having a bunch of heavy fog, especially in the early morning and late evening. It makes for bad driving conditions. Well I've got to get busy. Have a wonderful day and take care. I will see you tomorrow. I love you friend 😊🤗❤

We are getting some rain which is wonderful because we are always in a drought. This session was so good..I need to get some things made to just sit and finish. 😊

Absolutely love watching your processes! So inspirational. You are a joy. I'm in Toledo, and after my daughter graduated from university, she moved to Missoula. She's been there about 3 years now and has applied to Grad School. I (even though I am an old lady lol) drove out there last year. The countryside is stunning. Planning on another trip this Spring. Our weather? Ugh. Not as cold as you, but a very odd winter with little snow / lots of rain. I remember seeing mile signs for Helena and thought about you.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thanks for thinking of me, Carolyn! My son and family live in Missoula. It’s a great place to be! ❤

Good Friday morning, dear Gayle. I think the "funnest" part of the use it up and forgotten friends Friday sessions, is the obvious elation you seem to get when you find something that you really love, like those double journal cards that you will use in upcoming journals. I especially loved the added element of the fabric butterfly. I missed my granddaughters 20th birthday this year. 😞 May be the first I've ever missed. I hope you get to see a few clips from your grandsons play. I love things like that. ❤

When you’re talking about wanting to know what happens when you’re reading a book that reminds me of a friend of mine. She would go to the end of the book and read the end before she would read the book, I always said then why bother to read the book? She said she had to know the end otherwise she would be too anxious while she was reading it. Such a silly girl! 🙃

I have a request. I would like to see you pull out a bunch of say different pockets and show us how they were made, not decorated. Or a bunch of journal cards( double sided, fold out, accordion, etc) and how they were made. So many times I see you pulling the things from your unfinished box and I wonder “how” they were made, then you pull something else out and I’m wondering the same thing. In other words do a bunch of different “how-to’s” in one sitting.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Check out my Making Ephemera playlist (or in the case of this video, my #roxysweeklychallenge playlist) for the how to’s. The only ones you won’t find there are pieces I made on my Patreon as I provide my patrons exclusive content. I rarely craft off camera, so unless they are made on Patreon, they will be here on KZbin! I try and put all the ephemera making videos in the Making Ephemera playlist. 👍❤
