Good Morning Gayle, happy Thursday! Can’t wait to see all the journals you create from what you shown us today! Have a wonderful day! 👍🎄🎄🎄

[@bettymetz3746]

Here I am a year later learning more new-to-me things!! Thanks so much for keeping your videos.❤️

[@KandyAllen-yn1ww]

Hi Gail my name is Candy Allen mother of four grandmother of 9 and great grandma to one. I love your work. I found your videos ephemera series yesterday, haven't stopped watching them. I love crafting, sewing, gardening and being with my grandkids. I absolutely love your over the page embellishes. I never thought to use a paperclip like that, awesome idea.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Welcome to my channel, Candy! I’m so glad you’re here! ❤️

[@kathleensmith9307]

I've watched this twice and think your technique is the best of all tutorials I have seen previously. 😺

[@hollychequis194]

Gayle I never comment but I’ve been watching your videos over and over ! I just love watching and listening ❤️🇨🇦

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you, Holly! ❤️

[@1771bubba]

Last night (3-29-21) I was watching KZbin. Fell asleep and woke up to this gem on my TV!! I’m so excited to try these. They look so simple that I was slapping myself. Lol. Why didn’t I think of this! I hope they will be as easy as my sleep deprived brain let me think. I love the way they dress up even a simple page. Can’t wait to try them! (Don’t you just love it when things come to you in your sleep! Lol)

[@patbrez3079]

Happy Crafting Sunday Gayle! I use small photo albums from the dollar tree and remove the pockets, made a ephemera holder using them, sewed them on card stock. Have a great day! 👍🌸🌸🌸

[@cre8tivelycreated26]

This vid may be 3 years old, but what a fun embellishment to add to my idea book. It will remind me to make them for my journals!!

[@FlamingoFan1]

I have one word for these -- AWESOME!

[@miyukineal5789]

Hi Gayle 🖐🏻 I just loves these crip thinge! I made 15 of them, couldn’t stop myself!, so much fun . Thank you so much for sharing with us!! 👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🤩😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@barblydell9800]

So often I just get caught up watching you but today I made 9 of these fun clips! Thanks so much, Gayle!

[@lisa-myfavoriteephemera1301]

Love this idea! It’s so fun to watch you craft Gayle, you just handle everything like a Boss and I’m over here getting ink all over my hands, glue in my hair and picking my papers up off the floor 170 times! 😂😂😂

[@janerushton8263]

I've had to pop back in! I just LOVE these. Been making them and just made one that I really like, half way between the 2 lengths that you show, but with a pocket on the bottom of each side and a tag in each to journal on. Thought some of you may like to try that idea to.

[@michelletrevethan9945]

Having a gayle day. Forgot about these, so pretty xx

[@pennymeyer3416]

Those ARE super cool. Plus, I think even I can make them, BECAUSE your instructions are always very clear...that's why I learn all my core techniques from you. LOTS of KZbinrs are not so thorough to be kInd. As always, thanks you for not only sharing but showcasing some of the best artists out there. Or as my friend's granddaughter told her at her 5th birthday party, "You know the best people."

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

You’re granddaughter is so right, Penny! 😂. I do know the best people! Aren’t I lucky! Give that sweet girl a hug for me when you can! 🤗❤️

On my goodness! How cute, gorgeous, darling, and every other word I haven't used to describe how much I love these pieces of art! Such inspiration and talent. Thank you for sharing all of this.

[@gayelaw5579]

I am new to junk journaling and I just love your channel. I am trying new things and having fun in this crazy time we are living. thank you for all your sharing!!

[@maggiequilts]

Well honestly Gayle!! These are the neatest! I’m so excited to make some .... thank you so much... Hugs Maggie ❤️🤗🇨🇦❤️

[@MsEtila]

It looks like a present with the bow on top. Loving it.

[@lindareed8213]

I have had the opportunity to watch a lot of your videos today and love them. You give great instructions! I can do it. Lots of love thanks so much

[@catherinedoherty2025]

Good for you doing COPY of this beautiful bit of history. Makes my teeth hurt when people cut up old book illustrations when a copy would save book for another generation!

[@raggedyann4372]

Not everybody can copy or has a printer 🤷🏻‍♀️ Downloads are useless if you can’t download or print🧐

[@janicem4382]

I am very grateful for your company every morning. You are so very kind.

[@sueataylor8754]

Revisited this oldie but goodie today

[@Braedenfish]

Loved and made these. Instead of struggling to line up top edge.....always left a portion to fold over. Usually an asymmetrical or torn edge for interest. Love 💘 your peaceful friendly style of video.

[@EricaFieldsfrogs4ever]

I use "old" magazines cut-outs for my scraps on the clips.

[@amandaberge4795]

I love the books you keep the ephemera in

[@vintagepolkadotshop]

Oh my goodness- what a great idea! Can’t wait to make some for my journals. Thank you so much for sharing- hugs Emily

[@mollymurphy5387]

Good morning Gayle. You always make my morning like sitting down and talking to a special friend.

[@pennymeyer3416]

P.S. I also never knew that you fold on a score Valley to Mountain. What a good way to remember that. It's right up there with Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosey that I learned from my husband.

[@freidagepner2370]

Penny Meyer learned that from my husband too!!

[@sharontilyard949]

Oh - I love these altered paper clips. They are very similar to some I have made before, but I love the idea having a base that I can make in advance ready to decorate when I’m ready. I really love the collage one... I think it was my favourite!!! Thank you so much for sharing Gayle and a Thank You Geneta!!! These are fun!!! Big hugs, Sharon 🌷💜

[@shabbysue357]

Telephone book great find!!! Love the embroidered words beautiful, I have learned so much from you and I need to watch you because you always brighten my day. Love SM Tiffany Lane xoxo

[@jaynewood6714]

I have made these ‘hidden paper clips ‘ for over a year. My favorite way to alter paperclips. I’m new to papercrafts(in my second year) and this was one of the first techniques I found on YT- who?? I don’t know- but I don’t recognize the name you mentioned. Maybe

[@FinallyCrafting]

Maybe it was mine? I made a tutorial of these over a year ago ;) they’re so fun :)

[@lauravasquez169]

I also call them hidden paperclips ❤

[@APGJamie]

I'm a big fan of Hidden Paper clips, if you use a thin piece of fun foam in the middle part of the paper clip it will help Ease fold over without it becoming warpy. I have a playlist on my channel if you want see how I do 'em. Again love 'em all xo

[@Calicokate348]

Made 11 of these and now decorating. Just used cheap paper and didn’t worry about matching small to large pieces. What a great scrap buster and so fun.

[@donnadavis567]

These are beautiful and your directions were easy to follow

[@cynthiahamm48]

My goodness, I'm so happy that I finally found this. I saw you show one off in a Christmas video and tried to find them and came up empty-handed. I was just scrolling and there it was! I just made 4 along with you and now I'm going to go find a bunch of card for the bases. I love these embellliclips.

[@mauricepowers3804]

Gayle, when you put that blade through the paper turn that sharp blade edge away from your left hand(retired surgical nurse here😬)

[@mauricepowers3804]

Love the video!!💖💖💖🙏 Also Gayle, I just want you to know I wasn't being critical.... I just saw that blade that looks very similar to a scapel and was concerned about your fingers ....I've seen too many accidents I guess😬. I really enjoy your videos and I learn a lot💖

[@shondra6]

Looking for inspiration for paperclips. Oh wowsas. I love this concept. And I need to now get into this today . 👍🏻👍🏻💜💜TFS Gayle.

[@alyciapollard4344]

“Confusalties” my new favourite word. Love your channel!

[@lucindapage8209]

The first time I watched this video, I watched the whole video, thought I had it, went away and absolutely got myself so confused, I just couldn't remember anything! Of course, I did not remember the name of the video, so it took me a while to get back to it. you are so right, it's not so complicated. This time, I did it with you, and it is sooo simple! WHAT WAS MY ISSUE!? Anyway, what a neat embili-clip! Thanks, hope you don't get tired of being re-played over and over....

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Never tired of folks coming back! That’s the beauty of KZbin. If we forget something, we can re-watch over and over again! Thanks so much for being an avid watcher!!! ❤️

[@karenroach6048]

Totally brilliant ideas and so pretty. Definitely making these..... gives more character to your journal, impressive!

[@WildIrishToes]

I am definitely gonna make some of these little darlins! Thanks Gayle!

[@ruthskiff2899]

Love love love these. Can’t wait to make them.

[@MrsGigi]

Wow really cute. Need to test one for myself. Have a great week!

[@vernmcdaniel395]

Oh geez. Thank you Gayle for showing these. I am just now getting to the video. Done with my work job and on to my fun job! I was wondering why I had many sales. I just thought it was because of Friday pay day. Turned on the video while I dye some more paper and voila!! More embroidery thread on the way since I cannot shop in person. I will have a full stock soon. Haven’t even finished watching your play but I know I will love it. Thank you and sending hugs. Veronica

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Big hugs and lots of appreciation for your wonderful Etsy, Veronica! 😘❤️

'VERY NICE! I like ALL of them!

[@Jeannes1234]

Ingenious idea Gayle!

[@patriciabest1502]

Love that was fun

[@jbeaudi]

These are so clever! I love your chose of papers, too. You could even put a pocket on it for a tag. And I know the last tag you didn't finish will be gorgeous, too!

[@kessell637]

Fun! I have in mind some vintage playing cards that would be perfect for this! Thank you! 💐

[@jamiemueller1881]

I love these but am lost about the mechanics of it; I wish you had opened it up so that we could see the inside and see how the paper clip works. Great video and gorgeous decoration. Thanks!

[@Jenny-W1910]

ohhhh i LOVE these paper clips!!! tfs :-)

[@craftycat7212]

What a fun project I'm so glad you shared these. So sweet of Mike to bring you a smoothie. Take Care!

[@nadinejonah4339]

Check out Treasure Books video on these over the page paper clips. She layers the paper clip between the decorative papers and glues that packet to the main piece of paper/cardstock. You don't have to cut the paper and the paperclip is totally hidden. Love your work and enthusiasm.

[@Hinna212]

Hi Gayle, this is such a cool idea, thanks for sharing it with us 👍

[@tinaepp6337]

I was crafting right along with you I made too and you made for LOL. You are faster than I am

Oh wow Gayle, these look like fun to make. Great, clear instructions so I'll get onto doing them, just such a fab way to pep up my blank pages with some vintage bling! Thanks for sharing, love, love your videos, hope the weather perks up for you later, hugs XXXXX

[@ronicaellis7212]

I love this! Thank you for always having such good instructions to follow.

[@dottygin]

I love these, I will be making some of these in bit, get some bases made up for next journal. Thank you Gayle xxx

[@JannyHaak]

What a great idea, this will be easy and fun to make, and will look great on the pages. They can be tucks as well. Thanks so much for sharing, Gayle 💕

[@cowgirlhippiechick9911]

What fun! So easy to make a pile of bases to grab when you need to add a bit of something to a themed journal!

OK G - I got it and made one and took notes. Thx. I saw this video but didn’t know where it was going. Thx so much! Jackie

[@JournalArtPaperie]

Awesome idea Gayle- going to get some of these happening soon - thanks so much for sharing 💐

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

I have that same cutter and I cannot see the numbers to save my life! Fiskars really made a huge design flaw on this one. I love this idea! Really cute!

[@Sheila6006]

I’ve been watching a tutorial on making these all things wonderful thank you so much for sharing

[@juliemealy1882]

When making these clips, you can decorate the base first so that you get both back and front. It works!!

[@maribelru2011]

Wow! I’ve never seen these 😍

[@nancybeebe7622]

[@freidagepner2370]

As always, Gayle, great video. You’ve been giving me too many ideas lately. I don’t know where to start first!!!! 😊

I looked all over for a tab punch like yours. They're retired, and only selling on Ebay...for $75 to $89!!!

[@pamgarozzo]

Love this idea Gayle 😍🤗😘

[@jennyplowman1471]

Really enjoyed this. Cannot wait to try these

[@GwendolynsDabbledoosies]

Nice! Personally I would leave out the middle piece of card if the top layer was sturdy enough on its own, like scrapbook paper. Don’t think it is needed and it would reduce bulk and save me some paper. My supplies are limited 😉 Have a nice day Gayle 👍🏽❤️

[@mkyred]

I learn so much from your videos. You are such a sweet soul for sharing with us!

[@gloriaskipper1691]

Oh boy I wish my hubby liked to cook! I bet he wishes I did too! 😂

And these are awesome btw! Working right along with you making bases!

Looks like I found my next project!

[@RoseD2016]

This is an amazing idea. I love it. These will look fantastic embellished or just with the fancy paper attached to them. Wonderful so many things can be done with these. I will do these for sure! Thank you for a great tutorial and inspiration! Xx 💞💞

[@Northerndoll]

Love these, I have been reading a lot. Going to make a couple for bookmarks. We have had a lot of gloomy rainy days lately. Week forecast is finally warm and sunny 🌞. Going to finally open our pool.

[@laurettechandlerthevintage3022]

Oh my gosh Gayle! I LOVE these! Thank you for sharing how to make them. I have seen them on other videos but no real directions or measurements! Thank you so much! Have a beautiful day and many hugs and blessing to you big sister! 🤗💖🤗🙏🏻

Wonderful idea! As soon as I’m able, I’ll be making these I’m sure. Hugs, my friend! 😘💜💜🤗

[@GrandmaGaye]

This is great! I've been using them to protect both sides from being torn by the clips. They can be large or small and decorated on both sides. No ugly clips on one side.

[@CoastalCrafterUK]

Wonderful...thank you Gayle

[@janetvisochi-baum7572]

these are wonderful - i love making them - the one that you were having trouble with - i can see something like a key, or a heart with wings, or even a dress form - but lol - i'm sure its already done - love what you created Gayle - TFS xx

[@bluemuf]

Great tutorial. Look forward to making some

[@joannmcgowan9394]

Love this idea!!! Yay - thank you

[@nildam.bonilla5849]

I saw Spectrum Art Madi do some of these, altho without the paper clip showing I love that extra, to add lace, ribbon, trim, even charms💕

[@andreajohnsMyPotteryBliss]

Those are the coolest thing! A person could adapt this process to any size. I think I’m gonna make a couple bookmarks using this idea. I still like reading actual books so I always need bookmarks.
