FOUR WAYS TO USE TRACING PAPER in a Junk Journal! How to Decorate a Junk Journal! The Paper Outpost!

[@HobbesRN]

I love little Sunnee-bee!!💓💓💓

[@gidgetb3679]

Pam, I've been watching and enjoying your ideas and videos for nearly three years. I'm so glad you haven't changed a thing! You are delightful and so fun and creative. It's nice to know there's someone out there (besides me) who talks to their paper and hears their glue snickering back at me. Don't change a thing! Bless you. :)

[@nancywalker7302]

I agree wholeheartedly!!!

[@peacewithme547]

My FUNdle arrived so fast... and I can't stop looking at all the fun...

[@lericamims]

Your ideas inspire me and make me very happy. I enjoy all your tutorials!

[@Kat-gx3se]

OMG!! I had a little Maltese named Sunny.....he was with me for 18 years, 4months. I miss him more than I can say and seeing your little guy really pulled at my heart. I kept him puppy cut like your little one......they are the most precious dogs.

[@patriciasheredano6284]

It’s always fun here. The sound effects and puppy love and art, what a combination!

[@jennifermiller8226]

Two visits from Sunshine 🌞. It's my lucky day!

[@lericamims]

Pam you give so much joy with your commentary. You make crafting a gift we give to ourselves. Thank you for your upbeat spirit. You inspire me to create with reckless abandon!

[@angelabaker3638]

I was thinking about using felt circles that you put on the bottom of chair legs to avoid scratching your floors up. They are cheap, come in several sizes and you can get them at the dollar store . Instant ink dauber replacement pads for thread spools etc.. Angela from Oregon

[@pamfaircloth5284]

Clever!

[@susiemoore7226]

Great idea Angela!

[@irmagonzalez2134]

Good! The ink dauber!

[@irmagonzalez2134]

Dont have spools, but the corks from wine &&& sparkling waters!

[@831Miranda]

I've done exactly that and it does work, altho it's a bit rougher and one needs to get used to it to achieve the softer effects. I've used champagne corks (a little more ergonomic and fun to obtain :-) ) and also wooden thread spools. Haven't done ot myself but it seems that a hand molded piece 9f air dry clay with velcro at bottom would also work ...

[@momof2n8993]

I'm totally addicted to your channel

[@karenb1073]

I love that you seem to be a free spirit when you create. I was watching the one where you used your lunch box and a stapler to create a journal. When you stapled the first set of papers it was off, and I noticed once all were stapled in how off one was. You just rolled with it. I was overwhelmed that the papers were not just so! I admire that about you so much. Much success!!

[@ThePaperOutpost]

LOL yep Murphy pays rent here at my house...we have learned to coexist happily ;)

[@abigailphoenixthepaperaddi2501]

​@@ThePaperOutpost How did you get Murphy to actually pay rent? (hehe) He's a stubborn dude and refuses to pay rent here, refuses to leave, and every attempt to evict him has resulted in more "Murphy Moments" LOL!!! I do agree, though, that your approach to things going "wonky" is just go "eh, it happens"... it's priceless. I'm trying hard to get that inner Miss Perfect to hush. Pretty sure she's in cahoots with Murphy....

[@ronijones6737]

@@abigailphoenixthepaperaddi2501 Lol...love it. 😄

[@brendabrown8027]

Pam,I look forward to watching your videos every day. I love your free spirited attitude and funny chatter while you create! Thank you so much for your tips and tricks. And can I just say,Sonny is so adorable!!!

[@sharynsiler7669]

My husband has (had) a roll of "bum wad" that is like tracing paper but stronger. A big (huge) roll! They used it in architecture drafting. It will get dug out now. Thanks again Pam

[@lericamims]

We are so proud of you Sunbun! Thank you Pam. The book is so beautiful.

[@susanstemmet607]

Such fun with tracing paper. Loved the fourth one, the ruffles, so beautiful.

[@nicoledemana]

I love this idea I like the ruffled one best but it gives us lots of scope to play with thanks by the way we use to have Maltese we had 5 at one time I love this breed of dog they are so cute and cuddlely have a great day Nicole UK

[@lindadubey2041]

Love your ideas, but I think this is at the top of my list. Tracing paper is one of my favorites. It turns out beautiful dyed with beet juice

[@TheCelestialhealer]

Yay, tracing paper day, my favourite🎉

[@stacythomas7949]

Love that crinkle factor!!

[@cece3194]

Thanks for the November freebies. Very nice. They'll work well for Valentines Day!

[@wendywarden5095]

I like the window with the little leaves and sequins inside. Another idea could be dried lavender. It would smell lovely inside your journal x

[@abigailphoenixthepaperaddi2501]

Oh, Pam... You ever wanna know what living in Alaska is like, feel free to ask questions. =D I lived there a total of 10 years (with a break of about 2 years between the two times), and my partner was born, raised, and lived there until we moved to the Lower 48 in 2010. It really is a different place. In a lot of ways, I miss it (especially as my hot flashes increase in severity lol), but... it really takes a strong mindset to thrive there. Winter (or, as I called it... The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul), depending on how far north you are, is DARK. As in, a normal 8-5 job - you'd rarely see the sun. Where we were (interior AK), the "shortest day" we'd get about 2 hours of light. Light. NOT SUN. Reverse held true in summer! It wasn't unusual in summer to hear young kids running around, playing at 11pm, people grilling at that time, etc - the oddity of the sun really throws off internal clocks! In winter, at -40 below 0 (Fahrenheit), grilling on your deck was common. And... ironically, the consumption of ice cream is extremely high overall, but more-so in winter! So many, MANY amazing things about life in the "Final Frontier." I think my absolute favorite of all was bundling up, laying in the snow, and watching - and listening to (they crackle & pop)- the Aurora. If you were lucky enough that they were directly overhead, you could whistle, sing, or clap & they'd shift around in response. Many a time, I laid there, knowing the science behind them... but still in complete awe. It feels magical... reverant... and tbh, indescribable.... - Loving the ideas with the tracing paper so far. Havent finished watching yet (paused cus you were talking about the cool event/lecture you want to attend about Alaska), and you're on the 3 pocket set... I thought, "hey... why not secure a sticker, or stamp something, etc, nestled between the two layers?" So... there's an idea for anyone wanting to "go a step further". Anyway... back to the video (and bless sun-bun... so cute with those drops of water on his little face lol) Edit... ooooo, love using that open spot on the sides as a kind of tuck/belly band holder! Ohhhh, the shaker! I love how the tracing paper creates that bit of haze... it makes you want to look closer at the shaker! Ok.. the trim is beautiful. It almost looked like silk after you added the inks! That ribbon you added was perfect for it! Way to go Sunny! You aresuch a good boy!!!

[@lalagamma4452]

Love it all. I hope you're ok. Positive Healing Vibes and prayers for everyone in Ian's path! You can hear those tropical storm weather outside our place. Be safe💕🐞 Namaste 🥰

[@VijayaLakshmi-un9en]

pam, Recently I started seeing your changennel. They are very informative . Iam enjoying them. Thank you

[@tawnyatucker6443]

Love to see your Maltese he’s so tiny!

[@bonniearcher4505]

Great ideas Pam! I love making stuff with Tracing paper and velum. I'm excited to try the pockets! And the rouching, Looks just like cloth\materal . And I love me some sunshine with a cutie pie!!

[@rhondalaflamme462]

Shakers are so fun I like that you show no dies needed or sewing required just optional

[@sunshinegirl8214]

Pam that was cool. A very good and useful video. You are so correct in that it is fun to discover in your stash items you had totally forgotten you ordered!! The things that make us happy, right??! LOL

[@UniquelyYoursbyDawnMarie]

Love watching all your creative ideas.

[@PeterMurphy-c8i]

So glad Sunny cleared it all up! Happy paper tearing Pam!♥️

[@snarkycard]

Besides tracing paper, another thin paper you could use for all these projects you did today is the pattern paper which comes in clothes making pattern envelopes from companies like Butterick, McCalls, Simplicity etc.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Great idea!

[@pampusscat4513]

Love your ideas for for your book I really liked 👍 the brown background paper with the pockets in tracing paper on top. Great idea

[@janetvisochi-baum7572]

[@SusanMJB45]

I'm thinking about doing the same thing. One of each Pam idea that I see in a video will go in my Pam's Creations Junk Journal.......
