Carol, your creations are always unique and absolutely beautiful. Had you not just told us of your lack of self confidence and struggle to video yourself, I would have never thought that in a million years. I am so glad you fight through that struggle because I love watching you create and I look forward to each video you post. Till next time hugs and stay well.
This is turning out beautifully Carol! I personally love everything you make. It ALL turns out stunning in my eyes…every single time. ❤Keep doing you darlin🤗
Loving your creation, as always - I did laugh (probably shouldn’t have 😬) when you said that people watch and then say they don’t like it - I would be too embarrassed to do that 🤷♀️ and would never consider doing that - anyway, you are a very generous crafter and have lovely ideas - thanks for sharing and enjoying the progress on this - take care
@cyndiibbotson758 well, I laugh when I read it, as wonder why they bother to watch! I understand as a 'youtuber' that I put myself out there for criticism, but it's usually from someone you hasn't got a channel, so doesn't realise what it's like to try and video while crafting 😂
@@carollaws838 I agree and I think any time we show what we create to another person, we make ourselves vulnerable, let alone showing hundreds or thousands of people and the hours that must go in to film and edit AND the schedules when you commit to a DT project or something like that - it’s not for the faint hearted - you do an amazing job - keep on doing you, you make many people happy 😃👍🏻
@cyndiibbotson758 thank you, for me it's a hobby that's expanded! I also use my videos to refer back to, that was my main reason for starting them. If only I could edit! I just turn my phone on and go for it 🤣🤣xx
I know I say it all the time but I just really love all the unique flips, flaps, tucks and pockets that you put in your journals. They are so clever and professional looking. You are one talented lady! I love how you mix and match papers too. ❤ Tammie
I’m totally taken aback that you worry and fret about your creations. I have yet to see one thing that you’ve made that I didn’t drool over how beautiful and amazing they were. You are one clever lady! It just amazes me how you come up with different tucks, hidden pockets and flips. I aspire to be like you when I grow up! 😉 Please keep videoing…I’m always anxiously looking forward to your next one. 🥰
I really like how this one is coming along! I enjoy your videos, and your thoughtful approach to creating. Who cares what anyone else does, as long as it makes you happy! It's such a blessing to have crafting as a respite.
Absolutely gorgeous Carol! I am always blown away with your imaginative ideas! Truly makes me so happy to see my papers used so brilliantly. Thank you!!
Carol…your creativity is very unique! …. Your creations speak for themselves…each project you make has beauty with a purpose… the ambition and bravery you have is what adds to your creations… 39:08 .. as you create a larger family the more secure you become…don’t doubt yourself because I can say I look forward to watching each of your creations and have received so many awesome ideas from watching …. I’m so grateful that you share while you are creating and everything you make is something I want!!!! Lol…just a bit of admiration for you! Keep going, stay strong, fight through the doubt and always always be proud because you deserve it……the way you talk through your ideas and make them happen is awesome! thank you for sharing and HAPPY CREATING…
Carol, I don't know how you keep all the different pockets you have made straight in your head. The papers are beautiful, that being said it is how you put them together that makes a gorgeous journal.
Absolutely nothing wrong with the things you make Carol. Love the reassuring sound of your snoring dog in the background 😊 missing just that. Had fun every minute of this video, never long enough! Please brush off the people who tell you they don't like what you make ... sad isn't it .. for them that is, if one doesn't like please move along is what I think. Anyway, I love you but will never leave you that's for sure! Take care, big hug, XXD
Carol, you are one of my top 3 journal creators! I am always amazed at your clever tucks, flips, and pockets. I love to hear your thought process as well as the “stories” you create about what and why you put things in certain places in your journals. I have developed anxiety over the years of dealing with chronic pain. There are days when I can only craft here and there, and there are days when I just don’t feel like it. Thank you for making videos- they really give me so much inspiration! Sending crafty love from Texas❤❤
Carol, what you have created is simply beautiful. We all craft at different levels and like different kinds of digitals, that's what makes us crafters, we create, not all will like what we create and as long as you do like it, you have made it. Don't change Carol, I love you just the way you are, big hugs Carol, enjoy your weekend.
Carol, I'm in love with this journal! Love the dimensional butterflies and that pocket with the lady is beautiful! These kind of journals are definitely your forte! Hugs!🥰🥰
Love what you've done! Sorry you have difficulties at times - it never comes across in your videos. You always sound like you're having fun and you're so clever with ideas and I love your humour. I reallly enjoy your videos - thankyou. Can't believe people actually say they don't like things you make - all they have to do is stop watching and quietly not make someone feel bad. See you in the next YT!
I am so glad to know I am not the only one who gets overwhelmed by choices. I my own worst critic and have a hard time believing anything I make is "good enough", so thank you so much for sharing your experience. You are an inspiration! I have all of these kits and am going to give it a try putting my own spin on an elegant botanical journal like yours.
So Beautiful Carol!!! You are definitely the first designer/creative Queen I look for every day!!! Just so you know..I tell the family, I am not available when I'm watching your videos...no interruptions people!!! xo
Carol I think you are one of the most talented journal makers. They always look perfect. This journal is beautiful. I haven’t done much crafting I have lost my mojo so I am just enjoying watching. TFS🌴💕Never doubt your talent.
Your creations are always so beautiful and so inspiring. Don't worry that you don't replicate what others make because what you make is completely you and wonderful as they are.
Hi Carol! Wow! What beautiful journals!! I love it that you let the journal guide you with ideas for unique pockets, envelopes, and tucks. I always see you at the beginning with all your supplies laid out, and watch as they gradually turn into the story they are meant to be. One idea/request: I think one of your 3D butterflies would be beautiful in one of the ladies’ hair. Just a suggestion though. Thank you for the fun videos. Most importantly, take care of your health first as we all love you and understand. ❤❤
Seriously what’s not to like! You make amazing journals and I look forward to watching you create them. I have admiration for you to be able to ‘turn on the camera ‘ while you craft. 🎉🎉Keep up the great work and have confidence in your wonderful creations. ❤
Good morning! I’m watching you cut out butterflies and I cut the antennas off and then draw them in with a very fine tipped black pen. It works and the butterfly looks as it should. Take good care…ChristinesJournals
Wonderful as always carol if I could craft half as good as you I’d be a very happy person, you should be very proud of your talent and you are one of my favourite people to watch 🦋
I can only echo the 42!! other comments here, love your work, style & the way you create- thoughtful & intentional. I think your flips/ pockets/ flip outs are always so creative. ALwayS a treat to watch 🤗
I totally love all the things you make for your journals! They always make your journals look so beautiful ….. even the grunge ones, and I don’t like grunge! lol! Thank you so much for sharing your ideas and creations with us Carol….. xxx ❤
I love every post you make, but I don’t want you to feel pressured to post at any time. Thank you for all that you do and share with us. Your work really is delightful. I hope you feel 100% healthy soon.
Carol, I love watching you create. You aren't giving yourself credit for all the lovely journals you make. Watching you is such a treat, so relaxing and sometimes you are so funny! Love your humor. Take care of yourself. Was sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well. (Did I hear Bonnie snoring????)❤
Oh Carol, I had to laugh when you talked about looking for stainless steel pins. I was in the same boat. I finally found a container of pins in the fabric department of one of our local craft stores. Hey ho. I might start to quilt again and I’ll have plenty of pins to use 😂 I wouldn’t worry about recreating something you saw that you liked. It’s so much better with a bit of your personality in it.
It's getting wonderful Carol. Yes, I understand you so well. I also do need to have the mood in my brains for crafting. Last months I have been making tiny creative objects and no journals at all. Just because I am not in the mood yet for journals (even when I have some boxes with stuff ready to become something). These papercameo printables are so wonderful too.
This is lovely! I am like you, I can watch a video carefully and with the exact same papers make it but mine never seems to look the same as theirs does, seems crazy.,.. and I wish you knew just how terrific you are!!❤
Carol, your creations are always unique and absolutely beautiful. Had you not just told us of your lack of self confidence and struggle to video yourself, I would have never thought that in a million years.
