Thank you, Cori, I’m rapidly filling my cigar box with little finished pieces, so they can go in my junky journal. I truly enjoy learning how to make these little goodies from you. An excellent instructor, indeed. Have a wonderful Easter weekend. Hubby and I get to watch the 3 and 13mo. old enjoy pagan Easter bunny fun.

What a happy accident stummbling onto one of your videos. I have been glued to watching your channel for a few days now and you are absolutely a favourite for scrap busting. I am enjoying the series so much, thank you for sharing your wonderful talents with us.

[@CoriDahmen]

It's my pleasure Tonia and welcome!

[@pattysterbinsky7247]

So I have done it again! I got an order in the mail of Tim Holtz paper that was shown on a video. You are always my go to person so I am searching, searching and one of your videos is playing in the background. I just wanted to take a minute to let you know how soothing your voice is, are you working with the paper I am looking for? No, but it is nice to listen to you as I search. I really appreciate your talent and your aesthetic. Thank you Cori!

[@CoriDahmen]

What a very kind thing to say. Thank you Patty, and I hope you found the paper you were seeking 💕

I love the things you make from strips like the little clusters. I already have taken your strip tags as my preferred method too, it just makes sense to me. I try to work out why I like or dislike everything, and I think it is the straight edges and symmetry/asymmetry of your work that I admire. I’m still very new ( started in January ) to this world of paper, so I need to learn lots more. Looking forward to seeing what you do next.

Thank you Annie. I also love sewing fabric/Muslim spines. I need to do that more often!

[@406annie]

@Simply Sandy In general, the goal of an idea book is to have a single reference point for the multitude of ideas we find on YT, Pinterest, and elsewhere because it’s easy to forget as we learn new techniques. Then you can refresh your memory and incorporate as many as you like into your current project/s. But there’s no wrong way to do junk journaling, so if you want to journal in your idea book, you can! 👍😊

[@MsPixieD]

So many paper trimmers in this episode, including the first one shown that I'd never seen before! Cori, would you consider doing an episode on them? Which works best, do you need more than one kind, etc? I only have a memory keepers kind with the tiny replaceable blade that I don't know how to replace/where to get the part, and it makes ragged edges on my cuts, so I only use it for the score board. Would love to have an affordable paper trimmer, as the old-fashioned guillotine kind that actually works is way too expensive, plus no room for something like that! Would love to see a video with recommendations ❤️❤️❤️ Can I also ask, what kind of circle punch do you have? I tried googling them, and they are so expensive I want to make sure I get a good one. Recommendations? Thank you ❤️

[@CoriDahmen]

That is a loaded question! There are so many types and styles of paper trimmers, in a huge price range. I've been asked to do a video about my non-consumable "must-haves" and a trimmer or two falls into that category. Lord knows, I've tried them all in the last 25 years. I'll add that to my video list :)
