Vintage looking journaling card booklet ephemera -process video

[@craftyjoy9]

I know it’s been like 4 years and I don’t even know if you craft anymore but, I just wanted to let you know that you can do anything you want to! With crafting don’t be afraid to try any style! Thanks for sharing your creative ideas! 🙋🏼‍♀️🇺🇸🙏🏻

[@koyosensebe8027]

Lovely stamps and amazing work you have a lot of talent!

[@D0NNASAUR]

Hey I live near tulalip too! (Seattle - whoot whoot!) That’s funny - because years ago, a family friend used to be a card dealer at the casino- and I guess every time a deck is used - it is immediately disposed of (?! What a waste right?!?!) but this was YEARS ago! And going through storage few weeks ago - I found a moving box 📦 filled with tons and tons of smaller boxes that were each packed with 8-12 brand new (aka: one and done!) tulalip playing cards - also with the center drilled and hollowed out. My mind was blown with what the heck to do with it all?! But now - thank to you - I am excited to get my hands on a couple packs and get to work!!!! Thanks for sharing ! Exciting to check out your past uploads and even more excited for future uploads to come - since I’m officially now subscribed! After all, gotta support our fellow crafters.... and most importantly , its not everyday I meet any local like minded individuals or even know WHO (and not WHAT.... lol) Tim Holtz is. Haha. Sorry for long comment . Just wanted to say thanks again! And let me know if you need anymore cards ?! Lol. Take care! Xx ♥️

[@elisepelletier9474]

No wonder you are so creative. Your mind flies from one idea to the next in a flash. Great to watch you

[@wendygarton6428]

I have to say, I’ve watched hundreds of videos on junk journaling now, and started my own 2 weeks ago. Everyone seems to have Tim’s distressing ink! Yet one lady I watched used shoe polish! In the bottle with a sponge! It cost me $6 here in Australia, and I swear by it! And it’s cheap! And works and you get a lot more for your money. But I love your playing card idea! That’s amazing! I love watching everyone’s little tricks on using things around the house to use

[@KatetheskateStudio]

What a great idea. Thank you for watching!

[@wendygarton6428]

You are incredibly clever, and it’s always nice to watch another avid crafter, who doesn’t always have a lot of things (like myself) And I wish we could post photos in comments, so I could show you the show polish and the effect! P.S I love tea/coffee dying paper also! Getting a lot of new pages together to do today.

[@KatetheskateStudio]

@@wendygarton6428 awe, thank you. If you have an instagram, i will follow you. Just comment here. Then you can post photos that I can see. :)

Yes I am, are you? :)

[@carolynshanks2612]

Yes. Walla Walla!

[@mariepla1370]

Great idea. I have many sets of playing cards. Thanks for sharing

[@blueeyes9293]

I'm an English teacher (totally hear you about using our own money)...instead of putting the paper over the cards, perhaps you could distress the face of the card with a sanding block ($1 at the Dollar store), which lifts the coating off as well as the ink (to whatever degree you want). Then students could actually write right over the face on the card. Just an idea :)

[@mcatyoung]

I just watched another video that showed sanding the card face. I think using the queen of hearts and putting the stamp on it directly would be cute.

[@brendawalrath8369]

I enjoyed watching. Great idea

[@KatetheskateStudio]

Thank you so much!

[@Chancey464]

Everything you put together flying by the seat of your pants, it all went together & worked together & looked great. THX

[@cindym3578]

Cute. Set a side a day with a friend to go with you to thrift store, a play date so kids can mingle. Bring your own supplies. I went to Goodwill on MLK day & got 1/2 off 12 ink pads (stamping up & about 30 stamps & pretty scrapbook paper and many items for $18!! Thanks for being a teacher :))

[@sassafrasandscraps]

Love them! I just distressed some Sorry game cards and added paper to one side, this is a perfect idea for them!

[@peggygrabowski2604]

Not only did I enjoy, but you Inspired me!!! Thank You!!!

I believe we could start a Bunny fan club!!!!!! You have given him such a wonderful personality!!!!! I am still in love with your work. I went straight to your store, but all I could find was a clock!!!!! Alas.... Wait, the clock is beautiful, just not what I need/want right now!!!!!! :-)

[@KatetheskateStudio]

Betty Longshore interesting because I don't sell clocks! Haha

[@bettylongshore9594]

My computer changed to the next video!!!!! I was responding to someone else's!!!! Sorry! Interesting though! :-)

[@LynnGalvanHippie-Chick]

Your stamp actually looks like graphic 45 I have a few of them. I love vintage as well. I love your ideas keep them up. I havent done many tiny journals but Im learning. I have been crafting for the last 10 years so I got allot of stuff collected. Anyways love your ideas

[@ShemiDixon]

What a fun project thanks for sharing 😀

[@KatetheskateStudio]

[@KatetheskateStudio]

Thank you.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

These are so fun, Kate! Thanks for sharing them! I so agree with you. The making of videos is hobby number two! I don't do any editing to mine. Not because I don't want to. I just don't know how. You said you film and edit on your phone. I film on my phone too. Can you tell me if you use a certain app to edit, please? I really need to learn more about the editing aspect. Thanks for any help you can lend! ❤️

[@KatetheskateStudio]

Hello! I use Movie Maker on my phone, it is an android.

[@coraclampitt4110]

When you are distressing thin paper, back it with one of your cards it's much easier.

[@mariannenogle6172]

Love your video. Gives me inspiration.

[@jaynereed4028]

Great idea. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@susanjones7872]

So cute! Great ideas! Tfs ♡

[@makingartwithmso]

Thanks for watching!

[@Chancey464]

Use your brayer to roll on your cards when using wet glue. Roll the unglued side first. Then roll over the wet side, don't press to hard on wet side, but as hard as you want on dry side. It helps to spread the glue to the edge of the cards.

[@KatetheskateStudio]

Great tip, thank you.

[@vaniawhitfield6486]

Awesome

[@BeautyMommysUnite]

Na, I see lots of stampers stamp without a block. I dont own one either. I'm like you, not having a lot of vintage stuff but I am trying to build up a collection. It sucks when you can only buy a few things a week. Takes forever!

[@Yasha4life]

Why are you so Flippin awesome!…

[@Dulceknits]

Thanks for sharing your ideas for ephemera. I really like your stamp set with the lady. Was it purchased at a craft store? I also just got a deck of cards in Goodwill 👍🏼. thanks so much.

[@judyevansparker5989]

great idea...thanks for sharing God Bless

[@karashea7823]

Really neat stuff, Kate, I’m glad you turned the camera on! Question: what is the “sanding” you reference about the playing cards?

[@KatetheskateStudio]

Just sand a little bit with sand paper or an emery board or nail file to create a rough surface for the glue to adhere better.

[@MaryJane-xd4sn]

Luhv these!

[@madhvishah9588]

Which is the girl stamp

[@Jana-TheCraftyGambler]

My question, is, why use the playing cards if you are covering the entire face of the card. Why not just use a piece of chipboard or cereal box and save the playing cards for something that you could make that would showcase the face of the cards. Just asking, not criticizing. Maybe I’m missing the point to using them.

[@KatetheskateStudio]

Just because I have a ton. Use what you have, you know? Also you can keep part of the card showing.

[@pandorademarco]

Are you telling me there is a "correct" way to stamp???
