Pt 2: YOU AND ME & A PAPER BAG! Easy Junk Journal Tutorial with a Paper Bag! The Paper Outpost!

[@dawnwalker4109]

Good morning Pam...You and Me & a Paper Bag sounds like the title of a one hit wonder from 1972 :-) You are by far my favorite for 2 reasons...You are messy (like most of us) yet everything you make comes out so fantastic, and You are most definitely the MOST entertaining :-) Thank you for sharing your amazing talents with us...I appreciate all of the knowledge about junk journaling that you have taught us...A wonderful day to all!!!!!

[@janeenrodgers5993]

Have to get a grocery bag tomorrow. I had a blast. Listening to your thought process is fascinating. Yes, I do talk back to your video’s.

[@leahcushman5290]

This video is right up my alley! A perfectly darling project and a great reminder to "ask for paper."

[@melissakinnear828]

Most often, less means more. Simple and so very pretty.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Thank you! 😊

[@gabriellalovejoy57]

Turned out pretty cool, Oh dear heavens I have 8 paper bags full of folded paper bags. I love your videos, and love Sunshine he is so so adorable. Lots of love and peace, and happy crafting. And thank you for sharing your talent with us.

[@elizabethk2009]

Good afternoon! This was so much fun to create! I did it right along with the video. Decorating the cover I what is left for me. Later. Thanks again, Pam!

[@shondra6]

All good , part two. I love butterflies and dragonflies also. TFS this video . It always makes me happy listening to you Pam. 🙏🙏💜💜

[@user-st5gr8dc6v]

Love it...Oops on the button...glad I'm not the only one who has Oops moments 😅!!

[@sherrygraham8650]

I would watch even if I wasn’t a crafter, just great entertainment.

[@frazzledrobin5175]

What a great idea, I love brown paper bags for crafting. Thanks for sharing Sonny, we love and rescue dogs, last one was #11 a 10 yo bloodhound. My first and last hound!!!!! The Great Dane is much easier :-) Poor Abby the Tabby has had to train all of them, she's now 16 years old. Left off as a tiny kitten down home at my parents house in the country.

[@beckydexter8843]

Love this... as for butterflies I love them, my son has had a serious phobia of butterflies since he was four, he's nearly 30 and still not keen. So not everyone loves them, but I put them in loads of my journals. This video was perfect timing just have a pile of paper bags and wondering what to do with them. Thanks Pam, love your videos as always. Xx

[@dblock061]

Ha I actually just did that, with my hubby... Oh I so want this Edith Holden book. Oh I'm so obsessed with this book, look at this beautiful book. Look at these birds!!! Aren't these pictures so nice? Oh I want this book so much!!... And now it's on the way to my house. ☺️

[@TheAAdele05]

Pam, you have succeeded in making my cheeks hurt! There is no other crafter like you! And that's why I love ya! ❤️🙏🏽🤗 My favorite part of the journal is the back. So pretty done on the fly!

[@dwanalyn]

Yes, my cheeks hurt as well at times. So refreshing to see someone just be who they are unrehearsed and genuine. ❤️

[@TheAAdele05]

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Wow, thank you Angela! :)

[@taleeayeary2495]

Love this. It will be my first instead of cereal box cover.

[@louisesouza6627]

This is a cool way a bag turns doubly useful. Tyfs. I love the entire video, as is. Stay safe And blessings.

[@lisebedard7247]

Love this paper bag journal.

[@sandragoodall2429]

Just finished my little book and posted it for you to see...I used the whole Publix bag for the front and all the pages...it was a good bit of fun...thanks again for the idea.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Great job!

[@dmcc100able]

I love your journal from a paper bag WOW i love watching your tutorials and listening to you have a great humor... i don't like butterflies but i do them on my working crafts

[@cynthiaakacyndsmith6539]

I tend to sit on the book to train the paper to fold!! Heat from my tush and weight.. works for me.

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Very resourceful!

[@love-light369]

🤣

[@greeneyedldy50]

I love hanging out with you miss pam God bless

[@anaruiz1735]

Sencillo y muy bonito ..

[@nancyfair5607]

Definitely going to make one of these. Thanks for another entertaining video. You really brighten my day and absolutely love Sunny. Have a great day .

[@lalagamma4452]

Turned out BEAUTIFUL Pam!🥰🐞🤗

[@kellyp2863]

I knew i was holding onto paper bags for a reason

[@FatimaD9]

Hi Pam. We don't have paper bags for groceries. There are some speciality shops that do, but they are not usually big. I found that the KFC bags just the right size and thinkness for a paper bag journal. The McDonald's bags are a bit thin, which makes them great for crumpling for faux leather. I love love love the paper edge punch. The leaves against the white is so striking.

[@lisaolson211]

So primitive absolutely love it! Thank you!

[@lorrainedurgee1761]

This is a better video, thanks..I don’t blame you for not wanting to do other house things- I’m the same way, time just flies...

[@rosariosanchez3235]

Love love love it!!!! 😊Thank you! Such great work!!!

[@jojeffers7416]

Love watching this!! Can’t wait to try one. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@angelahudson5812]

Love this! Absolutely charming!

[@TheGrannycarol]

thank you brilliant video. i used paper bags to make a journal last year and am amazed at how strong it is.

[@kimberlyhoward7896]

Yay! Part two😀! I love how simple but pretty this journal turned out 💕. I would rather glue, paint, or write on paper than adult. Thank you for the tutorial and for sharing Sunny and his friend 💗🤗!

[@clairegagne6906]

Love that you actually go with the flow in making your videos. Love hearing Holly in the background and love Sonny too, glad you show him now & then. Appreciate your time. Be safe & TYFS

[@lynnwoods5423]

Pam you are awesome,! So much fun to watch. I’m going in my room and make one! Thanks for sharing glad you haven’t figured out how to edit😉

[@nancivessells1909]

Awesome. You are just too fun.

[@elainehutchinson753]

This is my first time watching your so funny! I didn't know that I'd be so interested in a paper bag project. I'm a newbie to junk journaling, thank you so much from the UK

[@dorothybradley2932]

I love the rivet idea

[@pauletteliddell2923]

It's fun watching you. I laugh so much. You take something and make it pretty. Good going girl. I do have some paper bags.

[@zoramae825]

Hi Pam, great video. I just finished a paper bag myself, more a TN size, and i had loads of fun. And you are so right, you can always fix mess ups😉. Thank you ❣

[@doriswatson6778]

Ingenious. You are so creative.

[@greeneyedldy50]

That looks really cool with the hinges pam

[@danacolosimo5874]

OMG love you Sunny 😍😍❤️❤️😘😘 Love the paper bag book 😘😘😘 TFS 😘❤️😍

[@shadowboxsw]

Love your projects and you make me laugh out loud! And Sunshine’s adorable speech at the end ❤️

[@CrixJoki]

This project is SOOO perfect! we get paperbags like this for free for composting, and we don´t get a lot of leftovers and stuff to compost, so I can easily sneak a few bags and make some journals :D This style would work perfectly for D&D notebooks/spell books :) (yeah, yeah, I´m a nerd haha) Thank you for sharing and thank you for hanging out with us :) 💜💜💜

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Hi CrixJoki! That's fantastic! Pam :) !!

[@lotta_lip]

Thank you for sharing this!!!! Great idea and I just followed along and made my first junk journal!!!

[@taraperkins9510]

Absolutely adorable!!! I love it!!! Now I’m off to make one for myself. Thanks again Pam for sharing your amazing talent.

[@FlorenceFrazier2002]

,love watching your videos, you are so creative!

[@robinsmith5766]

Love this journal

[@cathyhaynes2700]

I gifted myself the crop-o-dile big bite for the exact same reason. Nobody knew what I was talking about.

[@pamvance7378]

I love this…..

[@k.susieroloff4801]

Cool😎journal...love the paper bag thing...creating on the spar of the moment...what’s on your desk...😻

[@aundreaharris69]

Now you know...my birthday is coming up in November...and I'd LOVE a crop-a-dial II big bite...November 7th to be exact!!!

[@mylittlemainecottagestudio]

Super cool what you did with a paper bag! I am so impressed! When I lived in Florida I loved Publix, but now I live in Maine & we have Hannifords, we call it “Can’t Affords”😀

[@ThePaperOutpost]

LOLOL

[@baileylopez2341]

Hannafords gives paper bags... at least last i knew of. they are pretty pricey though compared to market basket and walmart

[@rhondadorst3553]

I love this.

[@jacquiliddell1811]

Your right Pam people outside of the crafting do not understand half. Bye bye Sunny

[@cynthiat6505]

I received a Cropidial big bite for my birthday last year! Such a great giftie!!!

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Yay!! :)

[@greeneyedldy50]

Beautiful just love it

[@elizabethglenbentley7882]

What an amazing project! I like the fact that you go along from one idea to another and end up with the final product 😉

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Glad you like it! :)

[@DeniseMJoerg]

Good idea. Really enjoyed this!

[@jacquelineremus8674]

CUTE! Im going to try

[@jeannepadgett344]

Loved this!!!

[@Cherblaze]

I think you hit the button too. I love that you do not edit any of your recording. You just go with the flow. If you make a mistake you just turn it into a new creation. Did you say it was your pick up the crap room??😂 I do love the noise of paper bags! Bonus! They are actually something free!! Thank you for sharing. You are the first person I look for every morning. You create and make me laugh. What could be better?? ✨✨✨❤️

[@ivettec665]

Ty so much, very nice

Happy Birthday Katherine!! :)

[@karenlulay]

Pam, you are too funny. I love it. I sound just like you when crafting.. ..only I'm by myself...lol. I really enjoy you sharing Sunny with us every video. Keep up playing and making videos.🦜👻🦜🦜💜💙❤🧡💛💚

[@UrbanGrrl69]

I just made a mini version with a brown bag. I love the texture of this paper, but the brownness can be overwhelming so it was really great seeing your ideas for how to build out contrast on this one. Lovely as always Pam. Thanks.

[@4chicagogrl]

I LOVE IT!!! 😊❤

[@janet257]

Such a cute journal! Always enjoy spending time with you via video and seeing Sunny!💗

[@debrak5314]

My birthday is coming up I asked a corner chopper and several other craft items!

[@pamelablaine4102]

Love this! Amazing how "mistakes" can add so much more...

[@denorahmicale5581]

So enjoyed this one. Thank you for just being you. 🫂 hugs to you.

[@clombard7134]

Hi Pam! Your creativity is amazing! I have asked for a Crop-A-Dile for my birthday, haven't seen it yet but he has 2 more days and I would really hate to go out and buy that and extra crafting supplies with his CC. Just saying.

[@WoodlandInspired]

How cool Pam! Yes I can see Lagertha using this journal for her herbal remedies, she was my favorite character. Another inspirational video and I can see so many possibilities. Thanks for the video and I hope your week is going good. Take care!

[@auroramaldonado3854]

I found part two!!!

[@deanna8217]

My lab/blue heeler is afraid of my cockatiel. lol I think she just knows he's off limits, so she avoids him, but she doesn't like him getting close to her at all.

[@patriciaruppert201]

Yay Part two. I like the white pages. You can just create inside this journal. Big hugs. ❤️❤️

[@sherryvanderpool4024]

Cute

Thanks Sherry!

I never want to leave my craft room either! Thank you, Pam 💜

I did enjoy this Pam. And it's good you go with any mistakes and show us how to overcome them! BLESSINGS

[@sandragoodall2429]

Good Morning Pam...how fun is this project...love your ideas and it's great to recycle too....I made your other one with the hair conditioner...it was lovely...thank you for sharing...looking forward to making this new one...it's really a great project...have a great day...stay well....Hi Holly and little pupper love...he's so cute.

That is awesome Sandra! Have lots of fun! :)

Great,my best moment though when you went for the glue and never came back with it,you always make me laugh thanks PamXxxLizzie 👏👏👏👏🤗

Glad you enjoyed it

[@margieryne6220]

Wow, had to have 2 sessions, I’m still hanging in here!😊 I wish you were on everyday, you make my treadmill so much more fun! I love when you talk for Sunny! Are you just a funny person, does your husband laugh at you a lot!🤣 How many dogs do you have?🥰 I want some of those stickers! That looks cute! Hugs!❤️ Sorry, I’m so nosy!🙄

[@kschickle916]

I LOVE your spontaneity ❤️

[@Zandain]

Ha ha, Pam! 🤣 A 'flying by the seat of your pants' video today! Views with no sound, extreme clip from part 1 to part 2...no worries, as long as Mr. Fussy Pants keeps you company 🥰 I have made a couple similar notebooks out of brown paper bags, such a great medium! 👍 Works really well on a master board/gesso or modpodge, to use as a cover - love from Denmark 🌸💕

[@motherofdogs27]

Watching you put the rivets in gave me a thought...if you did the “straps” before doing anything on the inside, you could use Brads as your rivets and then covering the back of the brads on the inside with another piece of the paper bag before decorating. I may have to do this! LOL. Thanks, Pam!

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Cool idea! TFS! :)

[@sandiemyers2463]

Well I have to admit I talk with videos. Since none of my friends are Crafters, there's no one to bounce ideas off of. But sometimes I throw out a crafty comment while they're talking football just so I can see their expression.

[@zoramae825]

Oh I totally understand. There are very few crafters in Germany, none at all close by. Many people don't even know what junk journals are. Keep on crafting and enjoy yourself. Stay safe🍀

[@joanfriant1563]

Love how this came together!

[@barbaranoble9748]

I really loved your paper bag journal! I love spending more time with you. Are you going to show us how to decorate this journal? I would love to see your ideas! Tyfs! Love you sweet Sunshine! ~~hugs~~

[@michellejanossy8186]

Hi again! This is such a great project. I don't have a paper bag but do have brown paper packaging that will work. Exciting day ahead! Thx!

That will totally work! :)

You made me laugh. I just had a birthday. I screenshotted (is that a word?) exactly which craft supply I wanted and sent it to my husband. Easy peasy! 😀
