When you scored the first one, I was already cheering: "2 - 4 - 6 - 8 who do we appreciate?" GAYLE!!! ❤🤗

[@junebamburg1704]

I was also, well I guess you now know I am no Spring chicken. 😃😃

[@nancyjoclark5006]

Was thinking the same thing! We appreciate Gayle!

[@DeerheartStudioArts]

yay! Gayle!

[@kimmartin8760]

I read your comment before the video started, after she started the scoring I just laughed. But I agree!

[@marilyntorsch3970]

Oh, so cute! 2 4 6 8 who do we appreciate -- GAYLE! Thank you for sharing 🤗

[@margaretgoertz8751]

You say you are not precise but I see the care and eye for beauty you have in creating, and think you are showing beautiful artistry.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you so much, Margaret! ❤️

[@lalagamma4452]

Good Morning Gayle!! 2,4,6,8 who do we appreciate Gayle!! We were both giggling and saying that all through the video. OMGoodness I love these!!! You're such a creative artist!!! Hugs my sweet friend!!! ❤️🐞💖 Hugs and prayers for you, Sarah and the family.

[@erikruthysmith7527]

Thank you SO much! Grandbaby and I made 2 of these today (she’s special needs…so…we only got to two lol). But, she gave them to her great grandma (my Mom) and her Great Great Auntie 💜

[@loripadilla669]

Good morning Gayle! I love this idea, well done you. I laughed out loud when you said “I can’t stop!” I love your videos. Hugs.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Morning Lori! Just over a month and I get to hug my friend! Woohoo!! 🎉❤️

[@thetapequeen5489]

A big thanks to you and your friend for this awesome idea. I love it. Hope you're having a grand time at your retreat. Hugs, Shell

[@janmarch5039]

OOOOH MY GOODNESS….YEP, that’s what was going thru my head as soon as I saw this idea. I love this look, so much detail in a small little package. I did enjoy watching you put this together, you are more organized than you give yourself credit for. It’s also fun to watch your excitement as the journal card reveals itself, with your creative help! I’m only 1/3 of the way thru your video, so better wrap this up so I don’t miss the finished product! Thank you!

[@junebamburg1704]

Love Love this card and it didn’t even make my brain hurt figuring out how you were making it. If you start from the right with the scoring would that make the card open from the right side. I hope you are having barrels of fun in your retreats ❤️❤️😄

[@vickirae561]

Another great idea! And you are right, I couldn’t get my shower and get dressed before I made a few. I used paper that I did not have to cover with plain paper! And I tied a ribbon from north to south to hold the folds down. So fun. Thanks

[@rowenaroberts813]

Oh, what a great idea Gayle. Your friend is a clever lady.

[@tinlizzie4444]

"2-4-6-8....this is an idea that's truly great!!! LOL Love this one Gayle....so happy your friend shared it with you and you, in turn, shared with us!! The owl one is awesome!! Hope you are having fun at your retreat!! TFS!! Hugs, Liz:)

[@joegauci82]

Thank you Pam and Gayle for sharing this project…I love it! Diane

[@donitamoore8123]

What a great creation! I can't wait to make some of these. When I do the 2, 4, 6, 8 cheer I'm on the team Gayle! Have a blessed day!

[@gladysward6969]

This is a cool project that I am eager to try. Thanks for the tutorial, Gayle. Hope your retreat is calmer than the previous one and that your creative energy results in fun makes! Don’t forget to go shopping and get snacking. 😻😻😻

[@is8304]

What a great idea. Thank you for coming back and sharing it with us!

[@CraftyBeginnings]

I really like these trifolds Mrs. Gayle, what a great idea. Thank you for sharing your ideas. Very fun and creative. TFS and crafty hugs.

[@sgshrader1]

Wowsa Gayle! I’m a card maker. Going to have fun with this on my next card. Thanks for your friend’s idea and for sharing with us. Enjoy your upcoming retreat. Can’t wait to see all the goodies you make while you’re there. I hope you have a wonderful time. Enjoy! Susan G

[@janrichards6519]

Oh I just love these & as you said they have endless possibilities! Even the last one you showed us with the 2" fold not done has my cogs turning! Thanks for sharing Gayle ⚘

[@carolbisson5242]

This is an awesome journal card. Just gorgeous and the papers look like they were made for this project.

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Oh my goodness gracious, I said "who do we appreciate " and then you said it right after I did. It made me laugh.

[@debbiev.1311]

Me too!! 🤭💛

[@nancypyter1511]

Super cute and fun Gayle! Who knew card making and journaling go together!

[@reneedewaal8787]

This could make a cute gift wth photo’s for a birthday, mothersday etc. Thank you for sharing and the inspiration 🥰

[@birgitbonde6677]

Oh, I just love it. So intricate without bringing the big “machinery” out. Will be making a lot of these. Thank you Gayle😃

[@Grandmasgirl-tz4ch]

Loved this! The paper you chose was perfect. Especially the one that read “Abundance” when you unfolded it!❤️

[@Veronim78]

Love this project. Quick, easy to make and a beautiful result.

[@catherinekelly8097]

Oh, this is a great one! Thank you. Can’t wait for you to be back home!

[@smurfie161]

Loving this idea , your videos are always so nice to relax to and have helped me through a tough time with my health issues and my loss of my Auntie . Take care

[@amandarichards7420]

This is great! So easy! This is what I love about retreats - the new ideas- the collaborations. And of course the friendships!

[@sallysmith2937]

Awesome tutorial! Thanks for sharing your passion, truly a team spirit 📣 ...... GO, GAYLE, GO!!! Love the 🦉🦉🦉🦉🦉s, too!! Remain blessed!

[@cricutologist32820]

Lol!!!! I was saying who do we appreciate from the moment you showed the score measurements! You crack me up!

[@paularose847]

This is so wonderful, Gayle! Thank you for demonstrating this method!

[@heatherdoane1195]

I love this so much Gayle! Thank you for sharing and thanks to Pam for the great idea! Have been looking for ideas to use 12 x 12 scrapbook papers and this is perfect (and a beautiful finished product). Have an amazing time at your retreat Gayle; craft, eat, repeat, lol!🥰🇨🇦

[@angelburba635]

Another Gayle idea for the idea journal. Thank you again.

[@joanndankovchik4861]

YEAH!!!! I’m so happy too. Love it Gayle, and yes, it was fun!!!!

[@skc921art]

Ugh....these are so amazing 🥰 I must have stopped the video about 5 times so I could make some. Ended up making 20😃 Thank you for sharing ❤

[@tamarahankins6934]

Everytime you scored a card, i was finishing with the cheer so i had to laugh when you finally did it too!

[@luannsummers8275]

I'm going to be in a waiting area for quite a while so will bring these supplies to keep me busy. Thank you.

[@carolmikolj5134]

Hi Gayle, this is a fabulous idea. I have a boxload of one sided cardstock in A4 (more or less 8 1/2 x 11 inches) that I experimented with. I cut it to 6 inches high and scored as directed. It worked great and the plain back meant I didn't have to back it with paper, although I couldn't resist doing a little bit of stamping; and the strip I took off at the start was just right to put a little pocket on the back anyway, or maybe a tag or two. I also have tons of 12 x 12 inch double sided that I'll play with. Thanks so much for sharing this.

[@erikruthysmith7527]

ADDICTED! Ha! I made like 6 of them between last night and this morning. I even adapted to several different sizes! LOVE ❤️ Thanks again SO much!

[@marthahenrich1185]

I love this Gayle! I had to pause it and try it right away. Just the scoring and folding. So much fun. I’m picking out papers…

[@YourWayCrafting]

Good Morning Gayle. Love this idea, they are wonderful. I watch all you video's and very inspiring, but I tend to keep very quiet. When you said you were hungry, I thought to myself...hmmmm I do not see you having your smoothie anymore that Mike makes. Thanks for sharing and have a great time at the retreat.

[@ommielouise]

Love this project. Can't wait to do this too. Fun,fun,fun,super fun...thankyou Gayle..🤗🤗🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️

[@lucy7b]

2, 4, 6, 8 who do we appreciate. GAYLE.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you, Lucy! 🥰❤️

[@donadeam2313]

I love your great journal pocket. These will be so perfect to add to a journal.

[@LauraMe...]

These are awesome Gayle!! I was hiking on the last piece you did wold have been sweet toys your first choice owl and a smaller on other lower right. But it came together beautifully. And I'm a bit timid of owls 🦉 Rachel will love this... she would have a fun day with it. 😊

[@candikcan1720]

WAY TOO FUN!!!! looking for a fun, fast in-between kinda thing and BINGO!!! (really love that paper with the pops of red...GORG!) thanks for sharing...happy wednesday!

[@joannoble4093]

I had a ball making these. Thank you.

[@lauradavey9467]

[@rustysz1064]

Love this!! Definitely going to be making this cute little journal card with all its fun variations! Thanks Gayle!!😁😁🤗

[@MargiesCraftyCorner]

Gayle I love the idea of the cards. I'm going to invest in a score board so that I can incorporate these type of cards into my junk journals. I enjoy watching your videos. I like the way you explain things and give us different ways of doing things to make them our own.

[@mmonr]

This IS a cool idea. I love how the patterns seem to work out so well.

[@barbaranoble9748]

Gayle I really love this idea! There’s a lot more things that you could add to this! My problem will be picking out the paper! Lol! Thank you so much for this great project!

[@amyrugala246]

Hi Gayle, I know why you were so excited when you saw these! I love them too. Was able to use up some of my 12 x 12’s that were hidden away. They probably would have stayed hidden if I didn’t go looking for this project, lol. Thank you. These are going to be perfect.

[@amandasueday9295]

Love this idea, I have Tim Holtz background papers they are only 10 wide so I just did the 2 4 and 6 scoring! Gayle you are so smart and I learn so much from you everyday!

[@whiteoakgoldenretrievers4446]

Love this Gayle! Just what I needed…a new idea! I can count on you to keep me going.

[@marshamichalecki]

Gave them a try. Really like these. Thanks Gayle. Hope you enjoy your retreat.💜M

[@annehahn9240]

These look so easy, and so cute! Love the Owls.💕

[@inkedpaperart1572]

I love this! What a great idea for a secret Journaling spot inside a card. Tfs ❤ Kate

Fantastic journal card. Absolutely love it, can't wait to try making these,

[@nancivessells1909]

That was super. They will be so fun to watch. Thanks for shring.

[@teresastevens2084]

[@wendyloomes5728]

Wow Gayle you were right addictive as soon as i saw this i went and made 3 of them so fun

[@raggedyann4372]

Great idea! Hope you are enjoying yourself❤️

[@brendalindstam6917]

Oh Gayle! My daughter is a card maker and I think we can get a few ideas from them. We sometimes have to tweak it a bit but they have great ideas!! I love this one! 🥰🤗👏🏻🌻

[@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS]

I just love hearing you get so excited. Means it’s a great project

[@MadCatLady9]

This is great Gayle, so many idea swimming in my head. No wonder you had to make more of them. Such fun!!! Thanks so much dear Lady and I hope you are having a wonderful time if you are at your retreat!🥰

[@tabithamcfeters487]

This is Very Adorable 🥰 an I’ll half to be making some of these.

[@WoodlandInspired]

Hi Gayle! How fun another addicting project! 😂

[@catherinelittle2118]

Love these trifold cards. Your owl decorations are wonderful. I hope you show your owl journal when it is finished. Living in the forest I am quite in love with owls. Hugs.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Absolutely, I will! 🦉❤️

[@LynsAlteredArts]

I’m glad I finally just bought a scoreboard. I usually just use the groove on my paper trimmer which works fine for one score but it doesn’t always work out for accordion folds since you’re moving the paper every time, I found that out the hard way.

[@kriskraftsmorewilson9651]

Thank you so much this is so cool thank you for teaching us this God bless him please have amazing day

[@jodyniemojuski4021]

Hahhaha!! I literally just sang that right before you did. Love it!!!

[@k.susieroloff4801]

Sweet trifold ephemera........😻

[@belindaosgood]

This is genius! I was in love with these as soon as you showed us the closed trifold. I made 2 bases along with you - one to keep in my idea folder and one to go in an upcoming journal. Thank you so much for sharing, Gayle.

[@patbrez3079]

Good Morning Gayle! Such an awesome idea for journals and so easy too. Will be making some today for sure. Artymaze uses card layouts for her journals, she recently did one that became a tuck. TYFS and have a great day! 👍🌼🌼🌼

You had me at 2, 4, 6 and 8!

[@JannyHaak]

These are so much fun! I enjoyed making them along with you, Gayle! ❤

[@joannedonovan9489]

Hi Gayle! I would love to make those into cards, too!! And just to let you know how much influence you've had on me ... I inked up my Father's Day Cards!!! (NOT the Mother's Day ones, though!!) I love how easy this is!! Thanks for the video!!
