Wow Barbara! I'm catching up on your older videos... I'm not an expert on shabby chic or vintage and generally not super attracted to the 'over the top' look, BUT I loved this journal!! It really had a nice mix!! Some of your laces in particular were 'to die for' - those with dangles were really special ! I also loved how you gilded the beautiful tucked in full pages - great idea!! Thank you for the full flip through, lots of great ideas!!

ALL of your gorgeous creations are a resounding success❣ Shabby chic usually isn't my favorite but YOUR style of shabby chic is beautiful😍. Love the way you used lace on the cover and special touches throughout the journal. Loved the gelli print elements too. So appreciated the opportunity to learn from you and Luise. And I watched both Luise's English and German videos too; really fun! How lucky I am to be able to learn from you. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thanks so much Pam! ☺️❤️

[@sararichards518]

I think this really charming. I love what you’ve created and where lace is concerned more is more. I think the idea of making the signatures before the cover is a great idea when you know it’s going to be chubby. Great idea. I need to get printing! Thank you for all the inspiration. 💐🌸

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks so much Sara! ❤️

[@denisebrown4933]

Beautiful journal and definitely Shabby Chic, but not in a clichéd way. The cover is lovely and when you were adding the lace I thought you were overdoing it. I was so wrong!
