I love Nina, too!

[@brendastaley3993]

Just completed my very first tab bound journal. I LOVE IT!!!!Your instructions were PERFECT! I love your style of instruction. No conversation about ANYTHING other than " LETS GET STARTED" And your voice is quite calming..thx much for an AMAZING TUTORIAL 👍🏽

[@madebymartha]

Oh my goodness I love your enthusiasm!! Thanks so much ❤️❤️❤️

[@tinagillhamevans667]

You are new to me but I loved that, I shall definitely make one of those little books I liked the look of that.I came via the Nina Ribera page, and have subscribed to you too

[@madebymartha]

Thanks so much Yvonne!! Love your journals ❤️😍❤️

[@ingridarlington5745]

Tim Holtz make fabric ribbon that has adhesive backing. I think that would be great to use also. TFS. I will save this video and give it a go, once my craftroom is finished and organized by 2024, LOL.

[@madebymartha]

Thank you so much for watching! I almost bought some of that TH fabric ribbon and thought the same thing about how it would make a great binding for a journal like this but I restrained myself because I have too much stuff already😂😂😂 good luck with your new craft room!❤️❤️❤️

[@MoanAhLisa]

Love this technique! Simple but very impressive. This is a must try for me. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for the video, came over from nina, whose videos I adore. I live the binding idea and am definitely going to try it. Brilliant little journal.

[@JacquouilleLaFripouille]

Hi Martha, it's nice to see your tutorial. Nina is also someone I regularly watch on KZbin. I have decorated most of the little junk journal you sent me in a happy mail. 🙂 I hope you were far from Ian hurricane.

[@madebymartha]

Hi Lisa! I’m so glad you are enjoying the little journal! I hope all is well with you and your family❤I am nowhere near as creative as Nina but happy and excited to help her out a bit. Thanks for watching and commenting. It’s lovely to hear from you❤

This way of binding a journal is new to me - I love it! Thanks for sharing! (Nina speaks highly of you!) 👍

[@madebymartha]

Thank you very much! I think very highly of Nina 😊❤️

[@patriciadowd2948]

I love this tab binding journal. I would love to see another video on how you finished it. Can you give me the size of this journal. I am a new subscriber. I hope you make more tutorial videos. I am new to crafting.

[@madebymartha]

Thank you so much and I’m sorry it took so long to answer you! Th journal is about 5 1/2 inches tall, 3 1/4 inches across and has a 1 1/2 spine. I’m planning on doing another video where I work on some of the pages but not sure I’ll be able to finish the whole thing anytime soon😊❤️

[@patriciadowd2948]

@@madebymartha No problem at all. Thank you.

[@tonyafortier8883]

Love the look of the spine! Thank you for sharing!

Hello new here & new subscriber. I just fell in love with junk journaling even more. I will try this little guy. Super cute journal! TY! TY! TY!

[@madebymartha]

Thank you so much. It’s so lovely to receive so much support💖💖💖

[@znycelondon5313]

Love the book. I’m still perfecting🤗🤗🤗my collage techniques……watching a lot of Nina tutorials helped😊. Love the tabs structure……I have a few books sitting waiting for this process……you gave me the Inspiration I needed ….to finally pick up the pages and do it……so true….I believe I was trying to over think it…… T.Y.F.S. 🥰

[@madebymartha]

Thank you! It’s so easy to overthink and get stuck in one place. It still happens to me all the time. Just keep practicing collage and you will get better over time. I also watch other KZbin videos to get inspiration😊💖

[@alanabooth5434]

This is the first video I have ever watched of you and I am in love with that little book. I am so inspired! I just subscribed to your channel can’t wait to see more videos.

Love the “field notes” journal and instructions on how to put one together from start to finish! Thank you so much for sharing it with us! I can’t wait to do one but probably with a smaller number of pages for the first one! You made it look so easy, so thank you for that!!! 😅

[@aimeemorgado8715]

I adore the way you dive in and allow yourself to discover a page as you work on it. No anxiety provoking perfection- just love of the process.

[@madebymartha]

Thank you-usually that works well when I can let myself go and not worry about the outcome as much-not always easy to do though😊❤️

How cool is this? Do you think this could work on a little bigger scale? Thank you for the tutorial.Vicki

[@madebymartha]

Thanks and I don’t see why it wouldn’t work on a larger journal, just use more tabs. Instead of using 3 tabs on one page and 2 on the other, use 4 tabs on one page and 3 on the other and so on 💖
