Gratitude Sunday - Christmas Week & My New Liene Printer
Memory-Keep with me! It's another #gratitudesunday and this week I share my Christmas Week Journal Spread. I'm giving my new PixCut1 @lienephotoprinter a workout as I use it exclusively to print out this week's photos. I have some updated opinions since my #firstimpressions video. P.S. They are mostly good!
Join me as 'Voice-over Barbara' returns to walk you through an abridged version of a 7 hour memory keeping marathon. Well....it was Christmas Week! Lots to remember! :-)
Grab a cuppa and your own creative project and let's have a fun visit together!

Gratitude Sunday - An Introduction to My Weekly Memory-Keeping Habit

#gratitudesunday Every Sunday (on occasion a Monday), I take a couple of hours to go through my photos from the week and lay them out in a Big #happyplanner . This serves as a reminder of the beautiful moments I've experienced, as well as the hardships I survived. It's a sort of spiritual practice of gratitude for the week I've had, and a source of optimism for the week ahead. I invite you to "...

      Glad I could be helpful. I really want to like this printer and hope that the more I use it, the easier it will get. But they really need to give us more maneuverability in photo placement.

      Hi Shalana :-) I did take some ephemera with me from home (just in case), but didn't use it. I picked up some papers from Tessler during the make and take and the rest is what was supplied. That was the "make believe" rules I gave myself for this personal little challenge: To use what they provided. And I did it! I just finished putting it together, so now I think I will use it to add thoughts and memories from the two days, then put a video together to share. Thank you so much for watching and asking questions. I love the interaction. <hugs>

      @theladylaughsalot 4 месяца назад

      Hi! 😊👋 YAY I am so glad you have questions. I look forward to working on videos to answer them. The journal started off as a hard cover sketch book. I think they are pretty generic in art supply stores. The paper has a little texture to it and some weight. Not as heavy as watercolor paper, if I go heavy using some ink it will bleed through. But the solution to that is to spread white acrylic or gesso before starting a page if you intend to get real inky. :-) (Just got in from the make and take. Hope to run into you tomorrow. Don't forget to say hi if you see me. ) 🌞

    Do I need a laminator for the toner reactive foil? In an attempt to be as cheap as possible (I've never done foiling before so don't really want to buy a laminator), I've been thinking that I could get a toner/adhesive pen and draw the design with a stencil, cover with reactive foil, and use my cricut mini heat press. Do you think this would work well enough? I'm doing a book cover on fabric so printing the design isn't really an option either.

    • @theladylaughsalot
      @theladylaughsalot 8 месяцев назад

      This sounds like a fun project! I've never used adhesive pens before but the premise sounds plausible. You've really piqued my curiosity. I want to look into this more before I answer. So "stay tuned". 😊 I should have time later today to really sink my teeth into this idea. Thanks for the question ❤️

    • @theladylaughsalot
      @theladylaughsalot 8 месяцев назад

      Hello again ❤️ I've had some time to research this a bit. So, reactive foil just needs something sticky to pull the foil off…it doesn't need heat. It's the toner that needs heat to make it sticky. So I would double check the directions on the toner/adhesive pen to see if it needs heat to activate the toner/adhesive, or maybe it just needs to sit a little bit to get tacky like the duo gel I used in this video. You mentioned you are using a stencil, so the decofoil duo gel might be a better idea than the toner/adhesive pen. It is designed for fabric. I watched a video by @moreycurtisdunbar Painted Studio where she had success on fabric without heat, but you can also use your iron if you can't get to your project right away…your iron will reactivate the duo gel. I'm really excited for your project and hope this answer helps. Experimenting before getting to your project should be a fun adventure! Let me know how it goes! 😊

    Oh my, I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending you and your family my sympathies. I certainly know how ... truly odd... it is to deal with grief... as life goes on... sigh. It is definitely challenging times and everything all rolled up. It's hard to put into words... but I send you love love love... take care!

    Hey there my new found friend. It was a pleasure meeting you at the stamp show. Sending my condolences to you and your family. Keeping you in prayer. May your memories of your nephew be fond and full of smiles. I never heard of a lapbook. Pretty cool. I need to go back and watch all parts up to this point. TFS!

    This video should be required viewing for anyone who wants their new year to be a fresh start-pretty much all of us! You are so right-changing our world starts with a focus on self. It’s something that’s hard for many of us to do, but so important.

    Love the name of your studio. Laughs a lot... made me think of finding laughing faces or drawing a laughing face in my journal. Thank u for the inspiration. Wish we had a gathering of art journaling folks where I live. Keep the laughter going.

      I love your comment ❤️❤️ thank you so much. I'm always touched to know I can be an inspiration for someone. It encourages me to create more content. It would be my wish for you as well to even find a friend or two to journal with together. It's been years for me to get to this point. In the meantime I'm glad we have many creatives on RUclips to watch. And out of the many, you took the time to watch me. Thank you ❤️ 🤗
