I love listening to your older videos these days...and love your style. Happy February 2023!

[@pauletteliddell2923]

July 20..2024... Watched quite a few this morning. Thanks for all the inspiration. 🙏😇🤗🤗

[@jeweltompkins8532]

I picked up a few tall books, but haven't used many pages. That is about to be rectified. I've been making happy mail to send to friends and family, just to cheer they up. Guess what my new goodie holders will be. A continued thank you for all you do for this community.

[@joiedefi]

I appreciate you too Jewel. You've been a great support to me, sending hugs...💜💜

[@Stargazer_Laurie]

Joie, I believe you are the Book Page Whisperer! 🥰😂😇

[@joiedefi]

Hehe, I like that one Laura....and curiously, I know what you mean....😁😁👍👍💜🌿

[@judiemjacobson4613]

I think one of these packets would be very neat right on a page that's a flip-out

[@msmarlene4977]

What a cute and simple pocket! I have a hard time finding nice, or large, book pages where I live. But this would be great for using some scrapbook paper I don't really like. Thanks Joie for the idea!!

[@joiedefi]

Sounds great!!👍🥰

[@barbaracabrera207]

This is so sweet!! Its already on my TO DO LIST for my current journals. I just love it. I also think it would make a nice birthday folio card! Filled with tags & journal cards,...with poems, personal message, Bible verse, and nice quotes! It would make a unique card, I think. I like to make cards for my family. They love to receive them. And have started doing cards in vintage, junk journal style. Its do fun. And nothing like a "card" I would purchase. These are perfect for all journals. And great insert clipped onto a page. 0r simply glued onto a page, like you said. Thx for great video. I love spending time with you watching your channel. You are such a sweetheart! So kind. And relaxing to listen to. Austin,TX USA

Love this idea! Last weekend, I scored a book of music for Beethoven’s Sonatas. It’s almost an inch thick! The copyright date is 1894 and I paid a whole $1 US for it. The pages will be perfect for this project. I’ve been working on my first altered book and I need a break, so I know what I will be doing this afternoon! Thank you so much!

I love your washi trick on the pockets and I have used it already 😬 I just received a craft goodies parcel today and I also splurged on some great new washi, pity I wasn't more careful with what distress ink I put into my cart 🙄 I ordered the distress ink instead of the oxide one 😭. Love your latest pockets, they are on my project list ❤️❤️

Sounds like you are having a great time!!😁👍💜

I do love your style, and what you do with the book pages.. very creative.. like no one else's. Another favorite of my channels, that I think, anyone who watches her channel, can always learn something new, I always do...is Bohemian crafter! Her style is more shabby grungy vintage... She has something new with pretty blue butterflies! Such a contrast in her styles.

Joie: I like this project. The book pages started the whole theme of vintage, which I adore. I think adding the washi tape as a decorative element and to make the edges a bit more sturdy is a good idea. A good project. Carol from California

Hi joie: I love everything with flips, flaps and pockets. This did not disappoint. Very clever how you designed these with large book pages.

[@prof.mommyarty]

GOOD MORNING JOIE😁. This would be lovely for happy mail. There's a lot of real estate with those pages, I have kids books that would work I think. I love that your pockets all work with whatever we have. There's some lovely buildings on your pages 😍 I love architecture. Barber showed some stunning buildings in her last video. Austria is so beautiful 😍. Americans say ladybug but bugs bite and ladybirds are beetles, no idea why we say 'bird' 😄. I'm an oil painter really but sitting at the easel is difficult now so I'm exploring other options. Watercolour stresses me out 🙈🙊🙈 I'm comfortable with mixed media, more robust. Subtle doesn't come easy to me 😄. Oh wat a pretty letter and gift 😍. There was nail glitter in there 😍. I've been working with pink lately, so out of my comfort zone. Cool project. Tfs and have a great week 💖💖💖

[@stacijo7989]

When I use book pages with pictures, I try to use them in a way, as to enhance the actual photos, with maybe some paint, washi, scrapbook paper, etc, as to balance them together, not covering them up completely, unless they don't fit the theme or are upside down or something. Then I would cover them completely. And then, wherever the typeface is, I'll either use that as background for other pictures, papers, or whatever, or even covering it slightly with gesso... blending in everything, to make the whole piece, cohesively balanced together. Then it doesn't just look like a book page, covered up, where you look at it, and wonder what's behind everything, or why is covered up..

[@joiedefi]

I think that sounds absolutely fantastic, thanks so much for sharing!!👍😁❤️

[@stacijo7989]

@@joiedefi your welcome dear. It's funny sometimes, when I watch alot of, how people do stuff, in their journals... I get frustrated.. and say, why did you cover that?! That was so nice... and when some do happy planning with stickers... They try to be so perfect in their layout, that they actually cut their beautiful flowers or butterflies in half, as if they're off the page.... And I say, noooo!

[@kimw4324]

Would this same process work with magazine pages?

[@joiedefi]

I suspect they would be too flimsy Kim. Just my view. It needs some rigidity in the paper. Maybe thicker magazine pages?? Also magazines release a lot of print so are a bit messier to deal with. 🥰🥰
