[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

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

[@swenstrand]

So fun to make!

[@lyndajoyce6243]

Soooo pretty, loved watching you. Thank you!

[@deborahsmith5036]

I watch my favourite people in the morning while I eat my breakfast. You make the start of my day so positive with your cheerful chatter and your stories about your day as well as your great ideas. I’ve started a whole new folio for this and other ephemera ideas. Thanks Gayle for making my day. 💐

[@sharontilyard949]

Ooooo - look at the owl. 😉😂🤣 I don’t even think you realised how that came out... but I giggled out loud!!! 😜🤣 I love this idea. A very fun way to use 6 x 6 paper. TFS!!! Hugs, Sharon 🌷💜

[@lorineltner6193]

I love your basket of ideas I need to learn pockets and tucks. So I am trying to make a book of ideas.

[@patcarmody7592]

Hi Gayle! What an especially fun video today!!! Love all the Edith Holden pages!!! Ceri did a beautiful job and he's so generous!!!

[@nancybochsler8947]

I'm fairly new at junk journaling and am so very happy to have found your channel!!! Been binge watching your videos and learning so, so much! And I LOVE this new series too! Thank you for sharing your expertise! And I just love your style and personality....so very fun to watch you!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

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

[@janb2162]

Gayle, I've been watching you this past year, so glad I found you! You are THE most enjoyable person on KZbin.......Lots of chuckles:)

[@flowersflowers5070]

My mother has given me her sewing machine but I'm so worried I will mess the tension up by sewing on paper...have you ever had any problem?

[@tuthillg]

Glad you are going to make some of your ideas. Love new things! TFS the inspiration!

[@jennispain244]

One of my favourite things to hear you say Gayle is ... "talk amongst yourselves" as you dash off to grab something extra to 'make' with... I just love it ... Jenni (aka Wicked Witch) Hervey Bay, Australia 😊

[@CraftyBeginnings]

Girl that is my craft room too, it's how I craft and the space. I have to pull everything out first, lol. Great idea, tfs.

[@juneribbons5196]

Love your videos. The owl is super sweet. I've learned so much about making journals from you. Keep up everything that you do !!

[@wendyjackson5976]

Thanks Gayle for the new series.....excellent for us newbies.....please can you put them all into a playlist as you go along ? Makes it easier to watch them over and over again....hope you and your family are all well....love and hugs 💖

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

They are in a playlist. It’s called Making Ephemera! I started it with the first video! Great minds! ❤️

[@brandythompson6544]

I don't remember ever seeing this idea- although I will admit I haven't watched ALL of your videos.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

What!?! You haven’t watched every single one of the 800 plus videos??? 😂😂😂. Brandy, you gotta put in some time with me, friend! Lol!! Thanks for being a regular, Brandy, and you’re always kind comments!! ❤️

[@brandythompson6544]

@@gayleagostinelli_ct - I am pretty close to completing them- but you are correct- I need to put in a little MORE time!!

[@JeanetteHouse]

Ooh, goody, new series! 😍 *makes popcorn and gets comfy* Ok, GO! 😄😘

[@juliennebrendadevos6004]

Love the idea of using corigated cardboard to do lines

[@pamharkins4601]

You are so funny! I love listening to you while your crafting! Not boring like a lot of others! Lol!

[@lauretteluluchartier8513]

Thanks for sharing! Always fun to watch the adventures of Gayle!

[@noradunlap7539]

So excited about this series!!! Love Chelle & Clint!!! They are funny too! TFS! Blessings ❤️

[@delgadojmar]

Oh my, I hit the goldmine! I just found this wonderful playlist...Janet

[@teresatravis2205]

I love your KZbin channel. You come up with some of the the greatest things I have seen I have such a good time watching you

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you so much, Teresa! ❤

[@jenfournier]

I just love your tutorials, thank you so much

[@stephanieelaine3708]

Oh I'm so excited about this series! Thank you Gayle!

[@buckiannscreations9089]

Loved that journal!!! Cute cards...I have to tell you this..you were telling the story of your son in law etc... and said something like "useless piece of information" but for me..it triggered memories of when my son was away in the Army and he would be on guard duty and he would call me to talk for hours and the time difference made it so he'd call me at midnight or 1am and I would stay up talking to him till 3-4am....I never complained because i knew he was homesick and i missed him and the thing is that I am so glad we had those talks because he passed away at 26 yrs old and i cant have those talks with him anymore...but i had forgotten about those calls until just now and this is a happy memory which have been lost to me in my grief..so thank you for reminding me of some of my favorite memories..i know im rambling cuz im very emotional right now...hugs to you Gayle

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Aw, thanks for sharing PattyAnn. Hugs to you. 🤗❤️

[@jeanneblondewomanstamping9788]

This is going to be an awesome occasional series! I have often wished there was a playlist for examples of your ephemera, and here we go! Yaaay, Gayle. 👏👏👏🤗

[@sherryann55]

I am creating along with you. This is a fantastic idea for a series. Just want to jump in about the Project Life cards. Project Life is a type of pocket scrapbooking which was invented by Becky Higgins and it was a simple way to document. It contained 3x4 and 4xx6 cards and you added photos in the same size. It branched out and became a way to scrapbook and embellishments and lots of things were added. I have done it for about 10 years.

[@Rosehaven777]

Hi Gayle, I’m new to your channel, thanks for sharing all the great ideas, love your stuff.

[@Sheila6006]

This is a great idea. Just love your first copy the file folder looks great too

[@sandraeilenstine287]

A-‘Tisket, a-tasket, I learned things from Gayle’s basket. ☺️

[@Talleyk28]

I enjoyed your video can’t wait to make these for my journals

[@anthonywaud9790]

Loved the first episodes, keep them coming! I think it was you, Gayle, who asked for people to tell you of themes we might like you to approach. Well, it occurred to me that as journal makers we all do quite a lot about the countryside, flowers, birds etc.but to my relatively new eyes, no one looks at the shore line or the sea. Now that’s a challenge. Just adore your videos Gayle, hearing the snippets about your family and getting inspiration from what you create, keep going! Love Jill

[@lauraann7816]

Great idea Anthony! As a Jersey Girl I love the ocean - the horizon -sea shells and sea life. 😍

[@jacquelinecrawford3297]

The idea books is awesome. Love the bin full!!

[@selinasnowdon2834]

Love this. My dad said to me the other week oh you were never ill, every summer at my Nana’s I had all the illnesses, German measles, measles, tonsillitis,chicken pox, he was surprised 🤣 will definitely be making these thank you

[@bettybutler1686]

I was there with the first one😊. Love this❤

[@litawalters4387]

So pleased that you are doing this series Gayle, love it. Xx

[@alicedurfee3910]

I am so excited for this series!!!!! Thank you so much.

[@MariaRivera-uo4qw]

Love everything you make.

[@travelingmntngal7963]

Hi Gayle! Like what you are making for the first ephemera piece. But I'm going have to finish watching tomorrow. Just been too busy today and now it's really too late. I will comment more tomorrow. Hope you have a wonderful Monday! God Bless! Sue :)

[@tfntexas]

I think I’m going to love this series, what a great idea!

[@ruthh.935]

Looks like a fun new series, Gayle. Woo hoo!

[@ginapearson3601]

Good Morning Lady, and all..... not going to be around much today, but thought I was watch this while I'm getting ready..... it's my Birthday~~ and I'm out :)~ tfs the new series.... us newbies need ideas, even if we are dumb enough to share them on social media, not knowing what were doing yet! hehehehehe

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Happy birthday, darlin’! 🎉❤️

[@lynnebarker4982]

OH!!! Gayle I'm going to love this series on making ephemera, I just happen to be going paper craft shopping tomorrow, who'd have thought you'd help me out like this..thank you for your ideas and laughter. xxx

[@jill_fritchleyklusoczky4293]

Hi Gayle, Love the Video and making the ephemera cards! Looking forward to more in your series! Prayers for the little ones . Can’t imagine 2 sick at the same time.

[@belindaosgood]

Love this cute little new thingamajig; so sweet. Time to make a cuppa and then watch Pt 2. :)

[@patbrez3079]

Happy for the series of making Ephemera, love Chelle too! 👍🌻🌻🌻

[@MonicaGarciadivinelight]

What a fun series!! And yes, you are in focus! That other video was just a blip.

[@maribellebron3542]

Love this idea. I’m working on my first junk journal. This will really help me with it. Love your videos.

[@WoodlandInspired]

Should be a fun series looking forward to it. Tyfs

[@annettedepete4314]

We can never have enough of ephemera! Thanks for sharing 😍🌴

[@jenlitscreations]

Wonderful idea

[@lynnelively6018]

Love the idea of ephemera videos. Thank you for the shorter recording.

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

It wasn’t on purpose. 🥴. Most of my folks prefer my hour long, but you can always watch in segments, pause and come back later. Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@karensumner3772]

SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS SERIES-LOVE YOUR VIDEOS-TFS -HUGS;BLESSINGS

[@DeniseBrooks1955]

Thanks Gayle!

[@megsgonnamake]

I am so excited for this series...mmm and my kids LOVE WHEN I MAKE THEM CINNAMON TOAST!!

[@Jenny-W1910]

oh i LOVE the story behind CinnamonT/Cinnamon Toast! that is definitely a comforting/cozy, and fond memory from my childhood days. my mom would cut the cinnamon toast corner to corner to make 4 smaller pieces when we weren't feeling good. CinnamonT is a perfect name for your etsy shop Gayle, you have a very comforting personality for sure-one of the reasons us subbies luv you bunches! an idea for where to put your corrugated cardboard line stamp...maybe you could punch a small hole at the top-string a piece of ribbon or something thru that and hang it on a thumbtack right next to you? ok, on to part 2. thanks for doing this series-super excited!

[@MarjorieSnyder]

Really looking forward to this series thank you in advance

[@blossomandinspire]

Oh my gosh, how I love this! I seriously struggle with what to do with my 6x6 paper pads. Thanks Gayle 💁🏻‍♀️

[@bookshopshelli]

This is great, love watching your videos. My siblings and I grew up having cinnamon toast for breakfast, Thanks for the warm and fuzzy memory.

[@MrsSpdytortuga]

Gayle I get so inspired by you! I love your idea book and basket. I've been looking to make a book for just that, IDEAS. Would it be possible for you to make one so I can see how it's done. I'm fairly new to all this journal making, ephemera and everything that goes with it and would like to make and save ideas I come across. Tfs everything that you make. Hugs 🤗💖

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Hi Marisol! My best advice in an idea book is to make a journal with all blank pages, so you can attach pocket, tag etc ideas to the pages. I’d refer you to my playlist Tutorial for simple beginner journals. Then to my playlist Making Ephemera for ideas to fill it. Hope that helps! ❤️

[@gretchenkleer9252]

Awesome! Love your ephemera Gayle! Thanks for sharing. ;-)

[@robinmckenzie4142]

GAYLE, if you cut the notch out before you glue or wait till the cards dry from the glue before you use the punch it will go much smoother for you and will cut easier. ❤😉🤗

[@camillefulton7709]

GAYLE U MAKE ME FEEL A WARM FRIEND, FROM ACROSS THE WORLD, YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO WONDERFUL, IM A HORIZONTAL CRAFTER 😂 IM PRETTY MUCH BED RIDDEN, YOU BRING HAPPINESS TO ME IN YOUR VIDEOS, IDEAS, INSPIRATION I PUT TO GOOD USE MAKING MY JOURNALS, EPHEMERA. GOD GIVES FOLK LIKE TO THOSE WHO CANT GO OUT, BRINGS YOU INTO OUR HOMES. BLESS YOU. 💜CAMILLE AUSTRALIA †

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Thank you, Camilla, for your kind comment! I’m so glad to spend time with you each day!! ❤️

[@melissafunkhouserlamb2635]

Love it!! I was just rewatching some of your older ephemera making videos...so this came at a perfect time! Just love watching your videos Gayle no matter what the topic.

[@handley2645mh]

Project Life was more for daily (or as frequently as possible) photo journaling of your life.

[@angelikamenzel1068]

Love watching you making ephemera 😍😍😍

[@lynnsinclair123]

So many ideas! Oh, and I just wanted to let you know that your video from the other day was not blurry for me. But even if it was, it would still be fun to watch.

[@robinpowell2712]

This is so lovely!

[@bettybutler1686]

I must have been behind the barn door and missed this one and this is exactly what I’ve been begging everyone to share. My short term memory has slipped off a cliff somewhere and I can’t seem to recall a thing. Instructions seep deeply amongst my inks and foam brushes. What to do? What to do? I’m settling in to be inspired and entertained and hopefully I’ll trip over my Glue Stick that’s rolled off with one the Seven Dwarfs. Maybe my Prince Charming will bring me a couple of his!! I’ve sent some birdies to bring me his scattered playing cards, cuz I need the Kings/Queens/Jokers. He’s informed me I’m not to touch his chess pieces. Where do I find real but flat ones?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

😂🤣❤️

[@bettybutler1686]

I’m thinkin a Goodwill trio for a chippy bargain chess set and lay the box with pieces in the gutter in a plastic bag along our maintenance guys run..... squishier.... then cupcakes for them... chippy, wee pawns cluster pieces for me!!!

[@kellercrucita550]

Fabulous!

[@kimberlyhoward7896]

I’m going to really like this series 😊! Thank you I’m off to watch part 2💗🤗!

[@NowTheresaCraftyIdea]

Hi Gayle. Thanks for doing this series. It's just what I was looking for x

[@selinasnowdon2834]

Love the video and how you called your channels, personally I hate cinnamon and can’t eat anything with it in, I hold my breath when walking passed Cinnabon🤣 I’m just starting a junk journal and this video is really helpful

[@mszoe6150]

Lovely.

[@iamwhatiam4075]

Cute pocket! Love the colors, esp the owl! :) Poor babies & mom. ;( hope they feel better fast. Tyfs, on to pt2. :)

[@jessicaeiss2541]

oh my gosh.....at the age of 27, my youngest daughter who was just home in Aug for her birthday, wanted cinnamon sugar toast for breakfast. Talk about flash back, but she's apparently not alone! I'm glad to know your etsy shop, I just favorited it. You should keep it in your video signature so other's can find it too!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

My website is in the description box of all my videos. There is a direct link from my website to my Etsy. ❤️

[@jetwasik1648]

Enjoyed it completely. Tfs.

[@craftygoodnesswithkim1834]

Love this idea looking forward to it💕

[@bettyswinford5886]

Slide it under your glass mat.L love these videos,thanks for sharing.

[@suelepage6970]

I love hearing about your tidbits. Cinnamon Toast would have certainly described you Gayle.

[@pinkrose1990]

Good job !!

[@lalagamma4452]

Yummies and soooo exquisite!! WOW I can't believe that you are doing a series I hear different ephemeral this is going to be so much fun I'm so excited! 🧡🍁🐿️💛🍂

[@MrsGigi]

Lovely series!!!! 💜💜💜

[@58Athena58]

Gayle, I've only been watching your videos for a short period if time but I live them all. Even though I know they are recorded as opposed to livestream but the way you talk to us it's like being there with you during a livestream. Thanks ago much for sharing your ideas and projects with all of its! I do have one question....what kind of sponge is that you use when you ink the edges?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

It’s a makeup sponge from Target! You can get them at any big box store, dollar store or online. 😁❤️

[@anitawelch5355]

I love your idea book too cute cudos to the maker

[@tamaragayle3993]

Your subbie asked about ephemera and suggested a video, I'm thinking she meant ideas for ephemera , things such as ticket stubs , game pieces, playing cards , postage stamps, receipts, cigar bands, cigarette cards , tea cards .... ( I prefer authentic but they could be printed or created ), As opposed to embellishments such as truck spots, pockets , banners, belly bands . Either way thus will be a fun series

[@louisavevers9709]

Ooohhh I needed this! I can't wait to get into making stuff!! I'm gonna be crafting along with you, here in nz!!

[@sandrasimard1808]

I was just wondering where you got your journal Matt for making lines? It looks great an an easy an great one we all need

[@dolphinlover2309]

I love your videos! Thank you for taking your time out to share with us and teach us new techniques! I wondering if I could make a video request? I see several youtubers making lapbook journals out of old books. I was wondering if you could make one out of cardboard?

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

I can sure add that to my video to do list! ❤️

[@RoxxPaperScissors]

Yes!! I craft with you ...Looking forward to new series!! Question: where did you get that beautiful BIG RED line stamp?? It's not in your favorite things.

[@Jenny-W1910]

hi roxxpaperscissors, that's a piece of corrugated cardboard Gayle inks on to make lines-hope that helps :)

[@RoxxPaperScissors]

@@Jenny-W1910 I thought I remembered her doing that in a video on time! I tore apart one before bed...tying it out tomorrow!

[@michelledekker7654]

This is going to be a fun series. I always enjoy ephemera crafting because you forget about the older technics.

[@melissabak8712]

Hello. Thank you.

[@dianehinkley5597]

Project life sold photo albums that fit the cards and 4 x 6 pictures alternately

[@barbaraperna5536]

I wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your Videos. I am learning so much and I find your videos really relaxing. Thank you for that😊. What did you use to make the lines. A piece of cardboard? 😊

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yes corrugated cardboard! ❤️

[@gwenmoody8323]

Love how this

[@JamieLOVEUMOREJOURNALS]

So cute

[@jkelley431]

What did you use to make the lines on the card? Love your videos. I always learn something wonderful!

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Corrugated cardboard...sorry so late. I just found your comment! ❤️

[@deborahhoward6650]

Love your vidios

[@hildapederson8174]

Hi, Gayle. Is the corrugated cardboard line stamp made from cardboard, foam or...? I really like it.

[@juliegrosskopf7101]

This is cute. If not sewing around the card, draw the zigzag on. Just a thought. :0
