[@craftycat7212]

Thank you so much! It really does bring back good memories, doesn’t it? ❤️Love ya, Amy

[@nickimcpheehals572]

You made me smile with your sister story. My sister remembered every important event by what we had to eat. It was amazing 😂

[@craftycat7212]

Oh that’s so funny. Thank you for joining me sweet friend. Hugs, Amy❤️

[@joanwebster4413]

Oh Amy, this is the best journal yet, it reminds me of so many Christmas’s past…. Since I’m 82 there’s been several… So wish I could get onerous like this…. Congratulations to who ever gets it 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@craftycat7212]

I love the way it is coming together too! So glad it brings back good memories. Hugs, Amy🙏❤️

[@mitzieat307junkjournals4]

This is turning out so beautifully. I feel like I’m so behind 😳. I never get tired of listening to you. I totally agree with you on the challenges. While I love doing them, it’s hard to balance everything else with them. Too much fun!!! 💕🥰💕 Loads of love and hugs my sweet friend.

[@craftycat7212]

Thank you sweet friend. You are not behind at all. It’s not a race you can work on your journal as long as you want. Love ya, Amy❤️🙏

Hi Amy, I'm glad you're happy today! I'm also happy today! A little colder here in Eastern Washington! But nice! I like the snow but don't like to be in it! Years ago, we were coming back from "Puerto Vallarta" it had been hot! We kept hearing little snippets that it was snowing in our area & Seattle, where we were going to land before we got home. We'll they were right! Snow everywhere! We landed in Seattle, then the planes' wings were iced & tried to get all of us to stay here overnight, but we didn't want to. It was only about an hour to get home! We finally made it. Then our taxi driver wouldn't drive up our driveway because he was afraid he'd get stuck, which he probably would have. We got up there & our emergency key was not in our hiding place. We had another hiding place on the other side of our house, so my husband had to walk through 3to4ft of snow to get it. I was freezing on the porch! He was freezing. We were both in shorts! Ha, Finally he came back & went inside. This was after Christmas & New Year's January 3rd I think! It hardy snows here! This was the worse snow storm since the Forty's! I know what you're saying about snow. I don't shovel snow on driveways or sidewalks! I have an older sister, who is 11yrs older! So by the time she graduated. I was 6yrs old & my Brother graduated the year before! He was 13yrs. Older. So he went into the Navy & my Sister got married & lived in San Diego! So after that, I was by myself growing up! Well, thanks for showing us how to put the ephemera in the Christmas journal. It's looking great! Take care! ♥️🫂🇺🇲🐾🦃📓✏️🦋✨️

[@barbaraconder5548]

Love the 1933 Christmas kit. I had to get it right away. You are so creative, and that’s why I always say you are the best! Please keep up what you do so well. Love your channel.

[@craftycat7212]

Thank you so much for your sweet compliments! Have a blessed day! Hugs, Amy🙏❤️

[@annettedepete4314]

Amy your journal is really looking fabulous. I am so slow putting mine together. I am enjoying working with your kits. TFS🌴💕

[@craftycat7212]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you're enjoying the kits!❤️

[@rhondabaumgartner5571]

Lovely journal. Thanks for sharing your creativity 😊

[@craftycat7212]

I'm so glad you like it! Thank you❤️

[@rjr618]

Hi Amy! The weather is about the same here. Very nice. Hate snow and ice! I don't think I've ever seen you do anything poorly. By the time you're done, it looks intentional. You just have that artistic eye. Love this journal! Whoever it goes to is lucky!❤ Yes, grandkids are the best! Christmas is definitely more about the kids.🎄 🎅My granddaughter is the main reason I got a tree. I used to have trees but then I started rescuing cats. Lots of cats and Christmas trees don't really go together

[@craftycat7212]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like it! Very true about 🐈🐈‍⬛🐈 and.🤣 Love ya, Amy❤️❤️❤️

[@juliemonroe105]

[@craftycat7212]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like it!❤️❤️

I don’t paper craft much more since I got sick. I continue watching you and Gale as I cross stitch which is more my speed these days. I enjoy your style.

[@craftycat7212]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. Cross stitch is wonderful. Take care. Hugs, Amy❤️

[@patbrez3079]

Hi Amy, Good Morning! Beautiful journal and love how you coordinated all your ephemera you previously made into this journal. My niece did the same things with the black olives when she was little. Weather here is high 70’s, however we have another forest fire and today we have the smoke and smell. No rain over 40 days now. Have a great day and happy crafting. 👍🍁🍁🍁😻

[@craftycat7212]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it. Stay safe!❤️ Hugs, Amy❤️

Love everything and the last one that's like a flip pad with the pockets I'm going to make that I'm working on two christmas journals and that will be perfect

[@craftycat7212]

Yay! So happy you liked that one. Thank you❤️

[@carollaws838]

Hi Amy - I knew you would have ephemera ready to go! its looking fabulous!! xx

[@craftycat7212]

That’s the advantage of the 50 stack challenge. 😁 Thank you sweet friend.💕

[@carollaws838]

@craftycat7212 I really need to get better organised 🤣 xx

[@littleskipperdaycare]

I'm excited to start filling my book. Good ideas here!

[@craftycat7212]

I’m so glad you liked the ideas! Thank you🙏❤️

[@mouseydeb3245]

Good afternoon Amy! ❤ Enjoy watching you decorate and put this together. Journal on my desk waiting on me took a week (at least) to figure out what papers to use and in what order. I really had no idea where I was going with it. Changed papers and shuffled them around a jillion times. It’s not that hard, people! 😂 but I overthink, then re-think my overthink. Plus I started out 3 sig, but ended up doing 5. (And I keep saying I’m not doing that many sigs again 🙄) Hope your daughter finds job she wants. 🤗 Lovely journal! 👍

[@craftycat7212]

It sounds like you're having so much fun making your journal! 🎄❤️ 5 signatures is a lot. Thank you so much for joining me.🙏❤️

[@blackcoffeeandwildflowers]

This is going to be such a beautiful journal! I hate sewing in signatures as well. It is my least favorite part, because I typically don’t do a very good job. But you, however, do an awesome job despite not liking it! Hugs ❤️🤗🎄

[@craftycat7212]

It just makes me nerve wracked! Thank you so much sweet friend, you are so kind.❤️

Filling a journal is so much fun. I’m glad we get to be done with the election because it caused me so much fatigue. Nope maybe we can move on to whatever’s next.

[@craftycat7212]

I’m definitely ready for it to be done but now we need to get through January. Thank you❤️

[@doebailey9644]

Sorry to hear about the December Daily. It was on my mind to ask if you would be doing one. Haven’t done one in a while. Don’t feel bad. I never finish mind either. Still fun. Turning out very nice.

[@craftycat7212]

Thanks! It is fun but takes a lot of time! I think it’s just a hard thing to do everyday. Sorry❤️

My hubby can't even get full retirement until 67. So they keep changing his age. It was 63 then 65 now 67. So he's a truck driver for a while still. 😊

[@craftycat7212]

I’m so sorry to hear that. The financial planner we use really helped us figure out what we needed to do to make it happen. Thank you for joining me. Hugs, Amy

[@heidi4650]
