I have found that cheap vinyl/plastic placemats work fantastically for mats to glue napkins on. I find them at thrift stores very cheaply or new at Dollar stores. The plastic kitchen chopping mats work great also. Once the glue is dry, the napkin peels right off. Then I wipe or wash off any bits if residual glue and re-use them over and over. Love listening to your thought process, Luise!! It always amazes me the ideas that you come up with. ❤

Oh, Luise, I just bought a TH mat and can't wait to try this. I have made faux tea bag rice paper before, but never thought to stamp like this. Also, maybe you know this, but if you tear off the straight edges of the tea bzg paper and then overlap them when you glue them down, the teabag edges blend together better and you dont really see any edges anymore. It helps give a more mottled look. Anyway, love that you showed this. So much fun! Thanks for sharing! Sue 😊❤

My dear Luise I love your univers (even the one of Barbara too) and from about 3 years, I am "in love " with junk journal (sorry for my bad english). I will go on in french, sorry. Chère Luise, pardon de mettre un commentaire "hors sujet " mais je ne sais pas où poser ma question. J'ai découvert le junk journal durant le premier confinement sur des chaînes américaines puis par hasard j'ai découvert Barbara, puis vous. Et là Whaouuuuuu, quelle révélation. Bien sûr je cherche encore un peu mon style et c'est grâce à "mes erreurs " que je sens, que je ressens le style qui me plaît le plus. J'ai débuté par des choses classiques, je dirais même très classiques que j'ai offertes. A regarder vos vidéos je me suis intéressée à des médium un peu plus techniques. J'ai découvert aussi Tim, et les distress grâce à vous et J'adore !!!! Alors petit à petit je m'achète ce matériel. J'ai aussi découvert Sacha 😉🤩🥳🥳🥳 Oups je m'égare, désolée. Je vais essayer d'aller droit au but 🤣🤣🤣 Je sais maintenant que le style qui me convient c'est le grunge, J'A DO RRRRRRE !!! Mais parfois lorsque l'on me pose la question : "c'est quoi grunge ?" Et bien je ne sais pas l'expliquer. Je ne sais même pas me l'expliquer à moi-même. C'est quelque chose que je ressens mais je n'arrive pas à l'expliquer. Aussi si à l'occasion vous pouviez au cours d'un prochain tutoriel l'expliquer à l'oral, ce serait top. Mais je comprendrais aussi que vous ne puissiez répondre à une question que je ne sais même pas formuler. Je regarde depuis ce matin, la playlist intitulée 2 junk journal, 2 style totally differents c'est ce qui m'a ramené ici. Merci beaucoup Luise pour tout ces partages, toutes vos magnifiques expériences et votre sensibilité. Again HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳🥳😘😘😘

Ceiling fans are a great source for drying craft projects. I have ceiling fans in every room to help with air circulating. Works great to dry paper . I set them in trays on top of my washer or dryer and they dry quicker. A desk fan maybe good just watch the speed . I would try it on low. Very cool idea.

I wonder if you could use a cereal box liner/that wax paper bag opened up & maybe taped down instead of the craft mat? Also I squealed when the 3 inspector tea bags came out connected to make one page. I love this idea! Can't wait to try. Also I ink my stamps lay them stamp side up lay the paper on top & rub or press with the clear block. It work pretty good. It's not the same with out the glue but it works for stamping. It's like stamping the paper on the stamp,not the stamp on the paper. Just say. & again no glue. Luv you so much! Happy belated B-Day 🎉🥳
