Our weather has gotten cool, was rainy and 38 this morning so Christmas creating fit right in! I hope Matty is soon back on the field. My granddaughter stepped in a hole running cross country this week. She said her knee popped and she went down in a drop & roll. The runner behind her said she heard the knee pop! Lots of icing the past two days. These grands keep us on our toes don’t they! Thanks for showing how to use that bank envelope. I have kept some of those but never knew what to do with them. Have a blessed day!
Wonderful idea to use Christmas stamps!! Your nails are lovely. Glad your trips went well! Prayers for Matty and for the lady whose Dad passed away💕🐬hugs
Thanks for the tidy up and organization video. It reminds me that a similar thing needs to happen with my stash - if nothing else but to remind me what I have! Pretty soon you’ll be so organized we won’t have time to talk among ourselves. 😉 Later this afternoon, I have a FaceTime Craft session planned with my niece. She lives in NC and I’m in Florida but we can “almost” be together working on crafty things. It is the next best thing to a face to face visit. I love it! I want to especially thank you for your remarks regarding having patience in our every day lives. Most of the time, the people getting the most wrath and vitriol are not the ones responsible. And sometimes no one is responsible - things happen to delay us like thunderstorms or accidents. There are times we need to put on our Big Girl Panties and chill. Take a deep breath and get some patience. I know you know this, Gayle. But thank you for practicing what you preach. It never hurts to have ambassadors like you putting a breath of kindness into the atmosphere. We need that to help tamp down mean words and deeds. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I'm loving all the Christmas goodies!! Last year I made 4 or five Christmas themed journals to take to the Spooky Jingles craft show last October. Not a one sold! My other journals sold, but no one was interested in the Christmas journals. So, as this year's Spioky Jingle show approaches next weekend, I made the decision to not make any more Christmas ones. The show is in a small NV town called Pahrump so the price points can't be really high because it's a retirement community. I make journals because I love it, and try to keep my time and involvement with each journal to a level that will keep the price down. I live in AZ and love going to the shows in Pahrump where I used to live so I can visit with my beastie whom I introduced to Jack jourmals. Our styles are completely opposite so it's so mush fun to have ore tables right next to each other. You inspire me every day Gayle.❤️
How FUN to see u sort out part of your stash! And then it was more fun to see you "refresh" a few things. But that bank cash envelope...can't wait to see it finished. (how many of those have I tossed?!) I've had a chance to just sit and watch some of your videos...WATCH! Got my "Gayle" fix today!
I know you know but you are so blessed to have such a happy, close family. I only have one daughter & grandson who don't live close by. I love listening to your stories about family events. TFS
I love Christmas and I have collected everything Christmas related for years. Since December last year I am creating junk journals and finally I can use all my stuff. Have already begun to make small notebooks for a Christmas fair in my kindergarden to sell in the time before Christmas. The money will go to projects for the kids. So much fun! Greetings from Germany! Nicole
Oh what fun things you found ! Yea m SO sorry about your grandson . Sending prayers for healing and total recovery and return to play as soon as possible !
Good Morning Gayle, I’m watching this early, early Sat. Morning. I just love hearing about your visits with family. They put a smile on my face. My love a prayers go out, I know what is like to lose a husband. It is rough! 💔💕
Yay! Christmas. I took a bunch of Christmas things to work on in Wyoming but didn’t get to it. But now I want to because of your inspiration. Prayers for Mattie and for Edith.
My son is a Matty as well. 🙂 He's a sophomore in high school. I pray your Matty is going to be okay. It's so hard to see your child or grandchild in pain.
You probably make Santa jealous. What an amazing and wonderful collection of Christmas possibilities! I share your eye problem. Its sort of like living in a haunted house with all the peripheral movement. It is annoying, but as long as I can read and create, I'm golden. I will be 75 on Halloween, so anything that works is great.
So much fun. The coffee dyed envelope from Triple V Vintage with the pointy Christmas trees on it in the very beginning shot of your video I just used that same envelope sewn into a signature in the Cathe Holden Christmas journal that I’m making right now. You really have so much Christmas stuff you should be able to put some journals together quickly without having to make very much ephemera. The only premade ephemera I ever have is more neutral botanical flower bird type things so every time I make a journal that is specific to a certain holiday or theme I have to make everything and it takes me forever. Plus, I’m super lazy and only work on them a little bit every day and sometimes not even every day.
Hi Gayle...I just had to drop you a short note....I purchased one of the journal cradles from CraftyCat, I just used it for the first time tonight, and I have to say I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!!💖💖💖 Thank you so much for showing this product in your videos, it has made my crafting of journals so much easier. 😊😊😊
Good morning Gayle. I love Christmas. I never get too much of it. Nice catching up on what you have been doing. Hope your grandson will be ok. It is scary when they are hurt. Hugs.
Good morning Gayle. I have lots of forgotten Christmas 🎄 items as well. I love watching you organize your stash and seeing what you will be working with for the season.
Happy Friday Gayle🎅 Fun play with the Christmas stuff, I have been doing that with Amy's 50 stack challenge. Its exciting when the kids have stuff going on at school and yes everything is different. I have young nieces and I don't even understand the lingo. Have a fabulous weekend and I love the nails, wish I could still do that but my arthritis won't allow it. 💕
Good morning, your Christmas papers and ephemera are so pretty, love seeing you create Christmas journals! So happy you had a wonderful visit with your Denver family.😊
Beautiful items and everything you made is delightfu my sweet friendl!! OMGoodness a LGB!!! I've been waiting so long to see you do another LGB!!! I hope you do one. Positive vibes and prayers for your grandson. How's Sarah by the way? Huge hugs 🤗🐞
Prayers for Matty and I am praying for Edith and family. I enjoyed this video. It’s so strange I can remember lots of what you have but can’t remember what I have lol.❤️🐇
Good Morning Gayle, happy Friday! You’re all set for Christmas journaling for sure. Sorry to hear about your grandson, hope all is well with him. Good luck to all on their upcoming sport games. Have a great weekend. 👍🍁🍁🍁
Good Morning ☕️ I think Montana weather has slipped into Kansas lol It’s only 45 this morning. Great day for sipping coffee and straightening the craft room. 😊 You’ve inspired me to get it done.
Good morning Gayle! 💕 oh goodie! Maybe watching a good dose of red & green Christmas crafting/sorting will get it out of my system early so I can move on to a Winter journal (or 2) I’ve been yearning to begin. 😂 Hope you and Mike are well. Have a wonderful weekend. 💕
Prayers for Your grandson ❤ this video really inspired me to get my Christmas organized, I’m going to have fun shopping my stash as I pull it all out very soon 😂 thank you Gayle!
Love crafting with you❣️ I’m working on a pink journal today. My daughter turned 40 this year and said she wants “a journal with every kind of pink in it!” It’s fun. Do you know how hard it is to find pink that’s not flowers?🤣 🤗💕🦋
Hi! Halfway through and I have to write. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas more than everything! You have so many goodies. It really gets my creative juices going!
Hello Gayle, I love forgotten friends friday! I wonder if you please could give me/us the size of the beautiful padded hearts? They are so beautiful! Hugs, Erika in Sweden
Hya gayle just seen a video of yours napkin covered fabric for journal covers, but i cant seem to find the follow up video of what you did next once theyd dried, if you could point me in the right direction id realy appreciate it, ive searched and searched it was 2yrs ago ty in advance. Loving your chanel and humour btw.
I wouldn’t know where to look either with over 2,200 videos of mine out there! Once the paper is dry, I cut any rough edges off. Fold in half to make a 9 x 6 journal cover. Put Tim Holtz book corners on the corners and sew the signature in as with any other journal. I hope that helps. ❤️
Our weather has gotten cool, was rainy and 38 this morning so Christmas creating fit right in! I hope Matty is soon back on the field.

But wait ... there's more! 😉 More Christmas! 🎄💕 Prayers for your grandson, Gayle! ❤ And for everybody who can use a prayer! 🙏
The festive goodness begins. It makes my eyes and heart happy both watching you create and listening to your family stories.
Wonderful idea to use Christmas stamps!! Your nails are lovely. Glad your trips went well! Prayers for Matty and for the lady whose Dad passed away💕🐬hugs

Hello Gayle,
I love forgotten friends friday!
I wonder if you please could give me/us the size of the beautiful padded hearts?
They are so beautiful!
Hugs,
Erika in Sweden
I’d say the hearts are about 4 inches tall by 3 inches wide. But she makes them in all sizes. ❤️
Hya gayle just seen a video of yours napkin covered fabric for journal covers, but i cant seem to find the follow up video of what you did next once theyd dried, if you could point me in the right direction id realy appreciate it, ive searched and searched it was 2yrs ago ty in advance.
