Forgotten Friends Friday! Viewer Request! Faux Front Envelopes!

[@TwilaSue]

Good morning Gayle and friends! Update on hubby, he ended up with 100% blockage on the right side of his heart, they put in a stent and he is much better! Yesterday taught to never forget the kindness of friends I have never met. I appreciate you all. It taught me that is half your heart doesn’t work, the other side tries to help the broken side out. Thank each and everyone of you who sent me encouragement and prayers, I truly felt your love. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@TwilaSue]

PS congratulations to your granddaughter on her graduation!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Morning Twila Sue! That’s such great news! Answered prayers! 🙏. I’m so glad for him and for you! Take good care of yourself through all this, my friend. Your heart has been through a lot these last few days too! Sending love and hugs! ❤

[@catherinedaniels1204]

Oh Twila Sue. Great news. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@PamDavis1000]

So glad he is feeling better. My husband had to have quadruple bypass surgery about 5 years ago. It’s truly amazing what these doctors can do.

[@janscott821]

These are so fun! I gotta go make it!🥰

[@patcarmody7592]

So sad about Ronda without an H. She was such a talented and wonderful person. RIP

[@colleenmc8450]

I am so sorry to hear that she has passed.

[@LynsAlteredArts]

Oh no, this is the first I’m hearing. I knew it was coming but still 😢

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yes, so sad. I hope she is resting peacefully after all she’s been through. ❤

[@craftyone5419]

I kinda started watching her around Christmas and I felt so sorry for her, she was saying her daughter doesn't want anything to do with her. My daughter hasn't spoke to me in around 12 years and won't let me see my 3 grandchildren. So, I completely understood her. Ronda was such a talent and such a nice person.❤❤

[@tammydayfl]

I love this idea. I'll definitely be making some of these. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@colleenmc8450]

Good evening, Gayle! Congratulations to Addie! 🎉 I know how proud you and Mike must be! 🎉 I enjoyed hearing how your bunny is doing today. Oh boy, those faux front envelopes are fantastic! Love the bright colors and those hummingbirds are divine! ❤

[@maryvaszi8742]

I love these. I made these with you when you made them a long time ago. You said maybe you should go back and watch some of your videos to remember to remake some things. Girl friend....you have many idea books to look at. I made those with you as well. I do look at mine from time to time as well as I have a template box I visit as well. Sometimes the creativity doesn't flow as well as others and it's great to go back and visit those things. I am making an "I Love Lucy" journal next and I will be putting a couple of these in it. Thanks for all of your great ideas. I love all that you do.

[@lindahyem5804]

Congratulations to Addie! I love when you revisit these ideas! I have lots of envelopes so this has inspired a use for them. Speaking of coodination...I was driving and took a drink of my milk...missed getting it to the cup holder...so I am cleaning the truck! Enjoy your family time! Hugs

[@elizabethglover5878]

Hi Gayle! Love the envelopes! Such a genius idea.

[@CarolineontheHillside]

Hi and happy Friday, Gayle! Love your Faux Front envelopes! Very inspiring…I’ll have to give it a try 🥰🌸

[@LynsAlteredArts]

I’ve always liked these envelopes when you first made them I made one and used it as a birthday card with a gift card in it for my cousin. Congratulations to Addie. The high school that I’m less than a mile from had their graduation last night, but it was very quiet. Last year they had this massive professional fireworks show. Everybody was wondering how they had the money for that. This is not a high in school in a high-end neighborhood. But apparently they didn’t have money for the fireworks show this year. It was very pretty. I was waiting for the show this year because I can see it over the houses from my house. Bummer.

[@lalagamma4452]

Exquisite treasures. Today's Quote: "There is no must in art because art is free." - Wassily Kandinsky. Congratulations to your grandson. Hope your little thing is over soon. The sniffles suck. I'm over COVID. Now it's a bad sinus infection. Huge hugs and safe travels. Namesta 🐞🐞🐞

Oh an oldie but a really goodie!! I made these out of TH paper and ephemera, sold them all. Time to do it again. Thanks for reminding us!! Have fun at the graduation! Hugs * L

[@visualisednz]

A excellent reminder- it has been an age since I made a faux front envelope. The first time you made these on video was back when I owned a small arts and craft shop. I ran weekly classes and one week I taught my ladies how to make the faux front envelopes - I told them all about your channel, too. Your videos have always inspired me, Gayle, and always will. ❤ Belinda xxx

[@kimberleymaloy1728]

High Gayle, this is beautiful! I'm glad you showed it to us! TFS 😊

[@donnaquick5173]

Gayle i really love these envelopes. ❤

These are so cute!! I love them! Thank you for sharing

[@reneebarger5194]

Hi & Hugs Gayle & friends. Wow. Another great way to use up the heavy weight scrapbook paper. Congratulations to your family.

[@christyearp]

These are beautiful! I’d forgotten about them too. 🙂 As you were looking for papers to make the second one, I thought you could turn the envelopes lengthwise to use the more vertical designs. Those papers are so pretty.

[@lauretteluluchartier8513]

Good morning, Gayle! Yes, this was a great reminder. I’m watching some of your past videos and I loved the accordion journal series. Have the best weekend with family, let them fill your heart! ❤️😀❤️

Morning Laurette! ❤

Gayle, these are super fun! What an endless idea project to use up ephemera and scraps. Thank you for the awesome idea ❤ Congratulations 🎊 to your granddaughter as well.

Oh I've never seen these faux front envelopes. What a fun idea. Thanks for sharing, Gayle. God bless you

[@donitamoore9748]

I’d forgotten about these envelopes. Thank you for showing how to make these,again. I always think I have to coffee dye bright papers but these are beautiful! Congratulations to your granddaughter on her graduation. Enjoy your weekend with family! Have a Blessed day!

Love you tons, sis! ❤

[@tfntexas]

I’ve always loved these! They are so versatile! Thanks so much for the Hi and Hugs! Makes me smile. 😊 Another series recommendation. We watched the first season of Billy The Kid on Prime Video and of course once you’re hooked they want you to subscribe to MGM for the 2nd season. I think that’s all of the seasons, it’s been interesting. MGM offered a 7 day trial so I think we can watch all the episodes and then just cancel. It’s such a pain when they do you that way but oh well. Hope you have a ridiculously great time with your family. Congrats to Addie. Happy Crafting! ✂️

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank so much, Tammie! ❤

[@LindaGraham-ye8zb]

Very beautiful gorgeous faux envelopes I 💞 it 🌹🥰

[@jocelynharvey5558]

This gave me ideas to create an envelope for the journal that I am making for my niece. Thank you so much. I always make themed journals: she likes gardening, gnomes, children, rocks and beaches. So each signature is a different preference. But tying them all together is the challenge. Thanks again, what fun.

[@michelletrevethan9945]

So pretty, have a fantastic time with your family, precious memories xx
