Junk Mail Envelope Journal Inspired by

[@cristinashepard3166]

Natasha makes gorgeous junk journals and she is super creative. My very first junk journal was Natasha's envelope's journal. She does everything herself. One of my favorite videos is her paper beads "class." A wonderful artist with an amazing personal story.

I love your work

[@mayterickinya]

That was my first too😊

[@TreasureBooks]

What a fabulous job you did Barbara, as always!!!

[@celestialspiritstudio]

Beautiful!😍 Natasa was the artist who first inspired me to start making journals.

[@HeavenlyTreasures7]

Barbara, I love 💗 your version of this wonderful idea! Natasa is so gifted as are you. Thank you for sharing!

[@RenaMiller-u1v]

The stitching adds so much interest to every page!

[@juliemills5134]

Love the way you used the sewing pattern tissue, Barbara. I’m glad you liked it. It’s a very cheap option from second hand shops here in Australia; well Tasmania anyway. I’m tackling Dephemerember (2021) with a sewing theme, so I’m putting the sewing pattern tissue to good use too. Keep the videos coming - LOVE them!! And thank you!! 🤗🤗

[@gillianmilburn3712]

I'm in Australia too and received some online products from spotlight packaged with old pattern paper!

[@catherinelittle2118]

Barbara you have more wisdom than you give yourself credit for. I love your humility in sharing your mistakes and shortfalls. I know that you struggle with perfection issues but you are so endearing to your viewers when you just show your courage to take chances and sometimes find that decisions made are a bit disappointing. To most of us you become even more special in being able to forgive yourself and laugh because it is all trial and error and there can always be another time to make more mistakes or even repeat ones made previously. You have come a long way in your personal growth and your crafting experiences and you can certainly hold your head up higher knowing that thousands of people love you and admire your artistic talents.

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks so much for your kind words, Catherine! ❤️

[@RenaMiller-u1v]

Stamps are great! Love the vintage ones and classics and florals!

[@angelaarnold4255]

My new favorite technique!! Glue and scrunch! You never get the exact look twice. Your antique stamps are so fun too! I can see those sitting on someone’s desk 100 years ago. They’d use them everyday. Making the handles grungy and smooth from daily use. Thanks for sharing this process. ♥️♥️♥️

[@rachelpatten8889]

You don’t realize your sayings until you hear Luise repeating them in your “voice”. Ha! I loved hearing your banter on the switch videos.

[@rosijung8085]

Once more a wonderful inspiration 😍. Thank you!

[@lericamims]

I love Natasha from Treasure Books. Her ideas are magical like yours!

[@carolynbrown3909]

Thanks for sharing when a mistake is made because fixing mistakes is as important as doing the project for so many of us. Enjoyed your video.

[@theaussieperson369]

Thanks for showing us your wonderful take on Treasure Books' ideas (love her channel). I am pretty sure that I can learn from (and do quite successfully) your mistakes, my mistakes and everyone else's mistakes!

[@49dragonflies]

[@PatriciaPageMosaicArtsCrafts]

Natasha is awsome! Love your version very much also.

[@kathyb5740]

I love how you find solutions when things do not go exactly as planned....💕

[@MaureenAstrid]

I can't help it I just love watching you craft and think and 🎵 adjust whenever something doesn't go as planned. 😊 this is a lovely idea sweetie, so simple but so gorgeous 💕👍 sending a big hug

[@luiseheinzl]

Uuuuuh! I LIKE IT! No, you don't say that too often, but I'm realizing that I begin to use your vocabulary the more videos I watch on your channel.... Ehm.... Explanation please 🤪😅

[@49dragonflies]

Hahaha It’s totally contagious!!! 😷😂❤️

[@bettypaczka9010]

Many thanks Barbara! Love your videos, your voice is so nice and sweet, beautiful hands making wonderfull things. Blessings and Hugs from México 🙋‍♀️

[@nairafoganholi6563]

I love it so much Barbara! I love the way you make your videos light and the felling they have we could stay with forever! So nice! Love your videos! ♥️

[@49dragonflies]

Aaaaw thank you Naira! ❤️

[@DeniseS-6867]

Hello Barbara, I love how your junk mail envelope journal came out just fabulous. TFS

[@debbivaughn1313]

👍👍The junk mail envelope made a gorgeous cover! I love Natasha's channel too. I'm always grateful when crafters don't edit out mistakes in order to kindly save us learners time and effort.🤗🥰

[@emmkaa2099]

Beautiful li'l journal in a matter of hours. I agree, time away (a few hours or a couple days... OK, it was a week...) gives me a new perspective too. Nicely done baby girl. XOX, MomK. ♥️🤗🌵

[@irispeters7313]

Beautiful like everything you create. I use to watch Treasure Books eagerly, too, and am truly inspired by both of you lovely Junk Journal Ladies! ❤

[@artzology]

Love how your journal turned out! We all make mistakes, especially me! lol! You are not alone! Beautiful traveler's notebook! xo

[@sandrajohnson9926]

Inspiring!

[@rgporter1957]

I had already seen Natasha's video and loved what she'd done, so I was wondering how you would apply your style. You did not disappoint, of course! I love your style so much and I got so excited Eben you really grunged things up!🥰 I always love watching your videos. You are adorable, so talented and so witty and fun. I definitely want to watch how you made your tree stamps because one can never have too many stamps or trees in their lives! Love you!💗

[@ledstoke]

Love this idea for these types of envelopes! And your stamps are so cool!

[@lalagamma4452]

BEE-utiful to see your lovely rendition of Natasha's idea!!🐞💗

[@gloriaskipper1691]

LOVE your version of this! Also love Natasha’s! Lots of talent between the two of you!😍

[@wendyk2557]

Great little journal and I especially like the papers you put inside.

[@pambotter355]

Natasha has great videos. Love your journal! TFS! ❤️

[@jesseb5112]

I really like this!! Your explanation was quite clear, and I think I will do a signature this way.

[@aleksandra.s.89]

Love how grungy it turned out! I made my first ever junk journal using Natasa's tutorial. 😊

[@mariadelgado4596]

I’m speechless and in love with this ❤, thank you for sharing it with us 👏👏👏

[@lalagamma4452]

Stunning and great to see your version Barbra 🐞✌️🕉️

[@sandysmith6841]

I like your style 🎉

[@DanielSanchez-rc8gk]

Put a bird charm on the chain, so it can hang on the tree.

[@debbiev.1311]

Love that idea!! 🐦 Or a tiny leaf?🍃

[@49dragonflies]

That’s a cute idea, thanks! ❤️

[@robinknutson8765]

I have watched her video and done this. It makes such a great sound and feels so great. !

[@ruthwalzershine429]

What a treat again..Loved this project..the grunginess, the texture.. Most inspiring ..Muchas gracias…mi amiga.

[@RenaMiller-u1v]

Thanks Barbara!

[@rachelspitzer-firliet4096]

bubbles can be fun...if you sand them to reveal the layer beneath...jfyi...😁

[@49dragonflies]

Hmmm very interesting, thanks! ❤️

[@ginabadeaux9319]

[@paginator]

Your calming voice helped me come down from an anxiety attack. Plus, the journal is gorgeous!

[@49dragonflies]

Thank you! Sending lots of love! ❤️

[@pauletteliddell2923]

That came out beautiful. I like the sewing paper. I have a lot of it. I still make some of my clothes. Love seeing. I'm getting ready to finish my great grands throws. I'll just be glad when It warms up. We're getting a lot of rain 🌧️ still. Love you too. 👍🤗🤗🤗🔵

[@amyrugala246]

Another piece of beautiful art, Barbara. Love it!!! I agree walking away and coming back to project for fresh eyes. For me, sometimes I get frustrated while working, not liking the outcome. That’s when I know I have to take a break. As always, love your videos !!! 💜💕💜

[@connielester1641]

Great job. I too follow Treasure Books. So many ideas to make it your own❣️

[@lucyfanning7496]

Love this. Loads of inspiration. I also love the work/ ideas of Natasia at Treasure Books.

[@honey-cy1io]

Oh, what a lovely idea. 🥰 Will try that for my TN notes. 🤩 Thanks for sharing, Barbara!

[@debrafazzi5382]

Oh, Barbara, I copy your mistakes them make new ones, even though you told me not too. Love this, will definitely make. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🤸‍♀️🤸🤸‍♀️🤸

[@Veronim78]

Your mail envelope turned out gorgeous. I love it. Will definitely be making this and maybe into a birthday card. Thank you for sharing.

[@katebannon994]

You don’t say anything too often! You just got teased recently by two lovely friends❤️🥰🤪😂!!! Saw this with Natasha and love your take on it, like another subbie I put this on to do later, looks like later has arrived! x

[@jayneterry8701]

One of my favorite projects of Natasha, @Treasure Books! She is amazing ! You have to have her on your podcast soon! 💖😀 You needed to screen shot her instructions lol. Before you added the gold I started to see it look like leather which would be a cool look. Tfs

[@49dragonflies]

I tried to get Natasha to come on my podcast, but sadly that won’t happen….

[@jayneterry8701]

@@49dragonflies ah well you tried ❤

[@teresemartinez6215]

I love your vintage stamps! Cute journal cover.

[@inessch.4913]

Ein sehr schönes kleines JJ ich bewundere euch immer ihr habt so mega Ideen

[@crafterdeidra]

Those leaves and tree on the tag came out beautiful. Loved how you transformed that plain envelope into something beautiful. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@tonyashatley5040]

Gorgeous! Looks like it will be a fun book to use! Love seeing you use what you have!

[@suhailasachak972]

love your grunge style with a touch of color. Very inspirational!

[@gerlindeemmersdorfer2970]

Ich hab auch schon 2 solcher Briefumschlag-Journale nach Natashas Video gemacht (mein Einstieg ins JunkJournaling) und es ist sehr interessant, wieder eine neue Variante davon zu sehen! Danke Barbara! Liebe Grüße aus dem Salzburger Land🤗

[@suebayliss2051]

This is a great way to use envelopes thank you for sharing your ideas 😍

[@tracytanasiychuk8253]

Very beautiful project. Blessings from Canada 🇨🇦

[@angiesell3385]

Love your creativity...will incorporate into my junk journal....thank you from Central Texas

[@debbiev.1311]

Beautifully grungy!! 💙🤗

[@carolvalenta]

Love it! I have made some following the Treasure Books video. A hint for wrinkles with the tissue paper- before you put it on crunch up the tissue into a ball and then open it back up to put it on.

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks! I appreciate the tip! ❤️

[@lenalossev1839]

I'm always amazed how an ordinary boring envelope can be turned into something cool! And this is really one of those examples! 🤩 Just love the way you use the pattern papers and number stamps. Simple yet genius! The true spirit of junk journaling (according to me at least) And your attitude towards your mishaps makes me giggle! 😅 I will use these wonderful ideas! Shukraan jazilaan! 🤗🕊️

[@NatureSpiritJournals]

Unglaublich, dieses Journal habe ich damals bei Natasha gesehen und wollte es seitdem auch einmal ausprobieren! 😊 Es ist aber auf meiner ewigen Liste gelandet und bisher hab ich es noch nicht geschafft nachzuwerkeln 😅. Ich danke dir für diese wunderschöne Inspiration, dieses „InsideCover“ hast du so wahnsinnig schön umgesetzt ☺️! Ein tolles Video! 🤗 Ich mache den Fehler mit der Heatgun auch immer wieder 🙈… Liebe Grüße Nicole K.

[@49dragonflies]

Nicely done, Barbara. It just occurred to me that I haven't made a TN since I first started journal making, roughly 4+ years ago.

[@nancypyter1511]

Very cool Barbara!

Bonjour, j adore. Merci pour le partage 😍

Very well done...lovely cover ..........😻

[@krisgossett1570]

Nice take on Treasured Books. I enjoy watching her channel also. I just saw a few of your episodes from 2 years ago using some Daphne's Dairy items and your style has definitely changed since then. It is so interesting how that happens. I've enjoyed those as well so I can see a binge watch coming on 😏. Hugs from Indiana. 💜

[@lindaallen7605]

Love it x mistakes and all !!!!!

[@juliemonroe105]

Great for a beginner wanting to junk journal
