Crafting_Whimsy
Добавлен 12 окт 2019
Hi I’m Trish! Welcome to my channel, Crafting_Whimsy! I’m so happy to have you here with me! I’ve just learned to use my love of paper, ink and stamps to make junk journals. I am learning all about journals and ephemera! Such a fun adventure using various papers for a different kind of story. I am so used to creating greeting cards and home decor items, that this is a refreshing change!
I enjoy being crafty and think of crafting as my new day job. I’m a retired primary teacher. I have a rescue dog named Torch-who’s the best dog ever! I’m sure he’ll be making some guest star appearances from time to time! We recently added a young Harlequin Great Dane girl, Timber, to our family!
I’m learning so much by viewing others’ videos, and am so inspired by many artists I’ve subscribed to while I continue to learn as I create. Thanks to the many artists who have made me feel welcomed from the start…I appreciate you all!

Pretty journal
That’s a neat way to make a jouranl thanks for sharing
Loving this!🐢💚🐢💚
Happy Monday Trish! I’m watching with my morning coffee. Let’s have a wonderful week. 🥰 💖
I love your cover and the fact that you are recycling using a paper bag!! Nice! New subbie here!! Congrats on being a guest collaborator with Susan! I love her works!
@@ArtsySolutions thanks Sonya! I’m a new subscriber to you too!
252 pages! If I heard you correctly & if I calculated it right… 😂Wow Trish, this will be a Big One! Love it so far!
@@BlackWhisperCraftsakaBexx uh Bexx, do you mean 3 signatures with 7 pages equals 252 pages? OMG I’m going to take one signature out then! That’s too many pages! 🤪
nope I heard wrong. I thought you had 21 pages in each signature. Haha! You only have 84 pages Trish 😂😂😂
@ hi Bexx, well, yikes, maybe I’m thinking too big! I hope I can cover 84 pages in one month! I guess I’ll leave it and see what happens?!
@ You’ll do great Trish! Congratulations on co-hosting!
So wonderful ❤

hello Trish
Hi Angela!
I really enjoyed your video!
@@Emilycrochet thanks Emily!
Very nice. This looks like fun. I’ve been watching a few channels about junk journals. I just got some stuff together and I’m going to try it. Thanks so much for sharing. New friend here😊
@@KYFillyDiamondPaintingnMore hello friend! I’ve subscribed to your channel too!
Hey this looks amazing
@@MissBELLE003 thanks so much!
Beautiful pages. ❤
So beautiful! Well done completing such a lovely journal! ❤❤
@@GwenTheTrashWitch thanks Gwen!
Love it, Trish! Love hearing you talk it out! 🐢💚🐢💚
Hi, Trish! I like the way you made the torn embossed snowflake into 2 tuck spots! You are probably a “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade” kind of woman! It’s always helped me not to wallow in sadness & depression too long. Thank you for another great video! Erica❤
I love it! A bunch of letters! I am putting a number (1-31] on each page because I knew I wouldn’t remember what I’d done! And I decided to jump around in the journal, seemed like a lot of people were doing that, so I thought, why not?! I haven’t done the cover yet, just couldn’t do it without knowing what the journal would be like! But I do have a bit of winter going on because we got that huge 13” snow storm, biggest in 40 years! Then I saw your snowflakes, so I think I’ll do something similar! Thank you! It was fun getting to know you & I will still enjoy your videos! It was very kind of you to reach out & offer encouragement to me! Have a great weekend, Trish! Erica❤
Love it, Trish! Well done! 🐢💚
@@iturtleyloveit thank you Susan!
Very creative loving your journal 💜💛💜✨️😊
Beautiful page 💜💛💜💖love shaker star
really cute page.
Wow! You must have been on a roll. 2 in a row! I absolutely love this page! I’m an old quilter, but haven’t done any for several years. I keep thinking I should go in my sewing/junk room & grab my scraps! Maybe seeing this, will remind me to dig around in there! Your “scary” memories crack me up! I steer away from any movies or books that have even a teeny bit of scary stuff!! My children love to recommend bad movies to me!! Thanks so much! Erica❤
That came together nicely & quickly!! Thank you for changing the canera angle! It’s great to see the whole table & I can always zoom in when I want to see something small! You had me giggling when you mentioned “cootie collectors”! Haven’t thought of those in years! We’re almost to the end!! Take care! Erica❤
Hi Trish, great reveal page. Your journal is looking lovely.
Oh Trish! I love this page! I was a Montessori preschool teacher for many years & retired in 2015! Geography was my favorite & what I discovered was that I could teach any subject using geography as the backdrop, so to speak! Monarchs migrate to Mexico every year, etc!! I love listening to you, because once a teacher, always a teacher! I would like to ask you to try to film all your videos using this set-up. I could see everything! In almost all your videos that I’ve watched, I could only see the top half of your journal. I’ve used both my phone & pad & zoomed in, and both landscape & portrait, trying anything I could to get the full table in view. If it’s something I need to do, please share that with me! You’re so creative & fun to watch. I apologize & don’t mean to rain on your parade! Thank you! Erica❤
@@ericastannard2635 hi Erica, I’ll start videoing like that every time. I’ve had a few issues and got a new place for videoing! Thanks for your feedback! 💞 Trish
@@TrishisCraftingWhimsythanks so much! I’m sorry you’ve been having trouble with filming, I don’t know if I’ll ever be brave enough to try that! ❤
A butterfly waterfall!!! ❤❤❤
Beautiful, Trish!😊❤
This page is so pretty with those colors ❤❤❤
