I adore watching these older videos. Things falling on the floor and you trying to decided what books you want to look through to find ideas. You were still going to the school teaching

[@karinroloff4562]

Cool ephemera folders...Part 1 & 2....Thanks for your creative ideas........😻

[@roxycreations679]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@Shane-us4ks]

🧚🏻‍♀️Rachel, that was a fantastic video! I’m using an old large padded envelope, with card stock to give it structure. You have the best ideas, thank you Rachel😘

[@roxycreations679]

Great idea! Thank you so much 😊

[@sherryrector2275]

Thank you Rachel.

[@lisacain1670]

Just bought the lace book. I have no idea what is in it but I can’t wait to find out. Cd is brilliant. Thank you for showing us the books.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@marlagallagher8443]

I do so appreciate and find useful your 'steam of consciousness' narration that helps me keep from giving into my tendency to overthink. Thank you ~

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@vanessaboman8143]

Brilliant idea thank you x

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

I enjoyed every moment of your video. I chuckled a couple of times. Not at you, but with you. Something fell in the background and you commented, “that will be interesting”. Sometimes my craft room is such a disaster it looks like a stick of dynamite went off.😁. Just love your videos and the beautiful art you create,

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! Yes I knocked over a box of stuff! I know what you mean about the craft room!!!!

[@ericastannard2635]

I’m glad to finally see a video on this!! (It’s already 3 years old & I recognize the original glass table without a pad!) I’ve been wanting to make one, so this is a great help! I found something on Amazon & wonder if it’s similar to what you use for your washi (or faushi?!) tape: They are “laser/ink jet matte clear full sheet labels” 8 1/2” x 11”, 1 per sheet, 50 sheets/box. $23.85. They’re probably not the same brand & I guess our sizes are different, but is that maybe a comparable price? Then to make your master copy, did you glue/tape all your strips to 1 piece of paper? Sorry, you know I’m from the Age of Dinosaurs! I always love watching you, Rachel!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊

[@mikemelissaporter]

Love your folio

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@karenlewis632]

lovely .. I'm goingbto make one soon...thanks for the inspiration. Wendy, I lost my pin for my bottle. now i have a little mahnet attached to some things on my two tables so I can put my pin on them and keep track, one attaced with glue to a tiny jar rhat hold baby powder that i use to neutralize glue stickiness and one that naturally attaches itself to a metal tin lid that holds my scissors etc

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊

[@donnamatoi5256]

I love on the fly working. It gives us reassurance when we are working on our stuff, so no need to apologize for that! I’m going to have a go at this project so I can see all my stamps! Thanks for sharing!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@Liz-ov8lb]

This video was very helpful. Love specially the last one. The way you decorated it. They were all beautiful. Thank you for your videos.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@rustysz1064]

Seems like you could copy them for your own use as long as you didn't sell it.

[@elvyescotoescoto355]

Hi Roxy! It's amazing beutiful! Could you shaer us the page those books efhemites it's wonder! 🐞

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@rustysz1064]

Could you put some kind of clear something over the pretty Gayle strip to help keep it attached?

[@roxycreations679]

Possibly

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Catching up on these two videos and love the storage idea! I haven’t got an Amazon envelope, so I think I might try adapting the folio I did recently into a storage folio. Once again totally inspired watching you! And I get so tickled when you talk to me in your videos! So fun! Thanks for another great idea, Rachel! Hugs! ❤️

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much Gayle! The feeling is 100% mutual! Best wishes Rachel 😍🤗

[@iteeshollow]

im not sure if its the same publisher, but there was a copyright case regarding people using the cd to print out copies and then using them in their journals that were for sale. The court said it was sold, and its use was to print and use them, as first doctrine did apply. That was in the U.S. ill see if i can find that case again. You can cut those out and use in journals for sale too, you cant copy the images from the book and then use those for resale, that would be infringement

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊! I wasn’t sure😉

[@joannedonovan9489]

I'm going to add you to one of my favorite people to watch! You and Gayle keep me in stitches!!!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@artzology]

I truly adore this idea! I am making one right away! I need to, so much stuff to put in it! I may use elastics to put in the pages so I can add more when I need to! You are so sweet to share with us! hugs, deb

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! I thought of that but then just sewed them in.

[@wesley5518]

Love your cover...you make it look so simple. Thank you for your time, the video and great inspiration. Enjoy a great day

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊!

[@annettedepete4314]

God bless Rachel you really do a wonderful doing it all. I am going to try this, I already have my papers. Thank for video.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@conniesholl3409]

I love how you create! It is refreshing to see someone to create without a plan per say! It turned out awesome! Hugs!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@annieliz1965]

This is great. I will be making one very soon as I have stuff all over the dining table, and the floor, and the sideboard.... The long-tailed tit at 22 was the perfect choice. We have a little mob of them that come to our feeders (UK) and they are my absolute favourite garden birds. So adorable.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! Your mess sounds like mine!

[@jeannieferdinande5805]

Lovely books that I had a set of...sold them at a flea market years ago...since I make things for myself or gifts these would be fun now...thanks to you and others I now can use pages that I love and can see them often...love this video ❤️

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊

[@TracieFoxCreative]

'I like the Tracie on the back' this really made me giggle...Thank you, this is an amazing project xx

[@roxycreations679]

Hahaha things just fly out of my mouth! Thank you so much!

[@sassyh154]

Can hear you loud and clear... love your randomness... I just don't have that talent... Maybe I need to grab and go with it... I do way too much thinking and watching KZbin... lol... Love your work Rachel...

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊

[@sherryrector2275]

If it were me the books you already owned. I would scan in pages I want to use and then you have it to use again

[@roxycreations679]

Great idea, thank you 😊

[@stampczy1]

I bought a blank Tim Holtz folio and haven's done anything with it! I will try your idea with it! I love your videos and your accent! I have two of those books. French Pages and Travel. I've had them for years. Glad I held unto them.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much ☺️! Sounds like a great idea for your Tim holtz folio.

[@tracyh6466]

I love how we see every piece of card, paper, packaging etc has a second life as we see reinvention!😉

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@YarnHappenswithMaryann]

I can't thank you enough for sharing this! This is exactly what I need and have been looking for.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@2ndchancecreationsbychrist12]

Another great VR off to watch the next one......don’t we love it when things happen that you really don’t want to happen ...lol. Love the process tfs 👍🤗

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@sherryrector2275]

Very helpful and not expensive

[@ginaporter167]

I love how this turned out. Very pretty Rachel!

[@roxycreations679]

Thanks so much Gina!

[@alteriormotiveswithcarrie8546]

What kind of glue is your glue stick? Because all the glue sticks I've ever used haven't been strong enough and eventually the papers come unglued. But it would sure be convenient if I could find a glue stick that worked better.

[@roxycreations679]

I use a Giotto gluestick and quite like it.

[@sarahjanewylde4750]

Thanks Rachel, purse is a bit lighter now!! 😉 I went on Amazon and have bought 4 different Memories of a lifetime books. 😀 I just couldn't resist them, they are adorable. I have also put 2 others in the 'save for later' as they were a bit more expensive. Cant wait to get them! xx

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@JessicaHarris]

I love these - going to try making them using file folders....

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@dianeduncan5814]

Looks great lovey, would definitely like to make some of these myself. All of my flowers/butterflies/labels etc are in little clear décor type containers, and it does seem to take ages sifting through them, thanks for the tutorial Rachel, 😊❤ hugs xo

[@dustyboots03]

Love your style!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@j.kevin-jillboyd5830]

Loved the video. Makes you human. Murphy's law can be overcome. Lol

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@alteriormotiveswithcarrie8546]

ooooh! thank you so much for showing those books, i went to thriftbooks.com and they had three of the books in that series for cheap, like $4 apiece. Great finds! As far as using the images, I think you could also legally use printed out images from the CD in journals and then sell those journals. Am I right? Anyone?

[@roxycreations679]

That's fantastic!

[@debbiesavage7107]

My daughter teaches in the middle school system. It can be brutal for her. Hormones and attitude rule. Best wishes to you! Thank you for the video. You are one busy woman!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much Debbie!

[@randomjournalbitsdawnboss]

Great idea for corralling all the ephemera. I can see I’m going to need a few of these. You mentioned some of the pieces were on sticky paper. What is sticky paper? TFS

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much 😊! They are very useful! Sticky paper is adhesive label paper, the full sheet size ones.

[@WoodlandInspired]

Loving this folio idea and its good for so many uses. Tfs

[@tfntexas]

I love the cover!

[@roxycreations679]

Thanks Tammie!

[@puffyjo]

my older daughter is a teacher as well working in a private school and they can curl your hairs and toes as well trust me and these kids are in Quebec Canada . so kids are kids I guess . She cried the first year trust me . grades 2 and 3 I believe .

[@MissDaisyParsley]

Wonderful video!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much Susan!

[@janicestevens4259]

I have the Alphabets and Ornaments book with the CD and love it. I’m going to look for the others! I’ve only used things from the CD - have not cut the book up - yet!

[@roxycreations679]

They are great books! I think i will check out the CD where I have them.

[@DebbieZagarit]

it was a great video Rachel. We craft while watching and probably make more of a hash than you do lol Really do love this idea. Tomorrow is make one day Thank you for sharing your inspiration xxx

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@twosilveroranges]

I have the borders and frames book which came with a cd originally. It is ok to use the images in your work for sale. I wouldnt sell as downloads, but its ok to reproduce them and use them, from the CD anyway. Nice find. :) I had a couple others also, but I cant remember what they were called. All used up. :)

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much Jessica! I wasn't sure. They are fabulous books!

[@sherryrector2275]

Lovely borders.

[@celestemclaughlin1356]

Love your videos but volume way too low.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much!

[@tashasherman4592]

You mention the New York public library a few times when talking about printouts. Do you search what you’re looking and save to print? I’m learning altered books and junk journaling to teach my Girl Scout troop this summer. If I can pull things from the NY public library to print, that would be great for our budget. Thanks in advance!!!!

[@roxycreations679]

You need to go to the NYPL digital collection and then search public domain images. It will say no restrictions. You just select which size you want to download and save it in your computer. Susan Taylor Brown has a wonderful series on her channel with public domain sites.😃

[@Countrygarden2023]

Thankyou so much for showing us your books!!! Whenever you get new books please please share them with us! I am going to order those beautiful books you got, they are so your style ! So do you work in a school? I didn’t know that, I thought Etsy was your full time job!? X

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! Yes I will do that! I do Etsy full time and then 2 months of the year do English workshops in school. It's only a few hours a day but tiring!

[@jessjtadesigns]

Just love your journals! I am kinda new to paper craft sewing, and am going to take your course on needle books! One ?? With my new machine, I am quite unsure as to the tension setting for sewing on paper. Can you help? Is it high or low, I've tried um all😁. Would love your advice! 💗✂️🌺

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! I just use my regular tension. Maybe test it out on a few pieces of paper.

[@rhondacalderone862]

Hi Rachel! I read the description of the Memories of a Lifetime books on ebay. It says copies made from the CD's are copyright free!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much Rhonda! I have a read in the books and see what they say.

[@victoriafortunato1669]

Ciao Rachel, ispirata dal tuo holder mi sono creata qualcosa per le mie carte ecc. Ho preso dei portadocumenti trasparenti abbastanza stabili e ho tagliato dei scompartimenti a misura e cucito poi. Ho disposto il tutto in un bel fascicolo...son venuti bene ed ho fatto abbastanza in fretta!!

[@roxycreations679]

Ciao Victoria, sono molto contenta! E vero che sono abbastanza veloci e molto utili!!😁

[@evadenebrosky6589]

Use the CD and make copies. It is public domain. You can use it all you want. DON't cut them up. I have some of those books and I love them. They just collected them up for you from places you could go get them yourself.

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! That's great!

[@lindenbergers]

Lucky finds, the alphabet book is $31 on American Amazon! I can't find the frames...but there is an animals book. Too many choices! LoL 🤪

[@roxycreations679]

I bought 2 on Amazon UK for 0.26 pence each plus shipping. I think the total was €11. Here's a UK link www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1402719973/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Then you can see the others in their suggestions section. The other one I bought on Amazon Italy for about €6 but I see the cheapest offer there now is €16. They have it on the UK Amazon (Romantic Illustrations) for around 10 pounds

[@sherryrector2275]

In America we call it Murphy’s Law when things go wrong when you really want it to go right.

[@tuthillg]

I don't have any Amazon envelopes but I'm thinking a large manila envelope might work or one of those large envelopes with holes. Will give it a try. Love your collaging and those books are wonderful! TFS the inspiration!

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! Yes i think they could work!

[@lindaarmbruster2134]

Love your work Rachel. What is straw paper?

[@roxycreations679]

Thank you so much! Straw paper is an Italian paper made from hay/straw. They use it to absorb oil from fried food.
