This is so unique --I love it!
Thank you, Donna Jo! I certainly didn't invent it, but it does work nicely with our junk materials, I think!
Sangat kreatif, Terimakasih teman sudah berbagi cerita, selamat beraktivitas tetap semangat dan salam sukses👍❤
Terima kasih banyak! Saya sangat senang mengetahui Anda menontonnya - selamat bersenang-senang dalam membuat dan berkreasi!
You have made some of the most beautiful items here. ❤
The belly band looks like the perfect bookmark 😊 Reading aloud is a big part of my job and bookmarks get played with and lost. I am forever looking for new ways to make a sturdy bookmark. The mermaid scales look perfect!
Many thanks for another fun and useful project that is oh so beautiful too!
Oh thank you, dear Julie! I always melt when I think of you reading so sweetly to your dear little patients - it must be so soothing to them. Talk to you soon! ❤️
Oh my, I love ❤️ this idea. Especially the belly ban. I can’t wait to get started on one. Thank you for a great idea as usual.
Thank you so much! Yours will be terrific!
MUY DIVERTIDO.
Trabajo para relax.
Gracias por compartir y regalar momentos de alegrías.
Muchas, muchas gracias, Trini!
Goodmorning another winner!! I can always count on you for an original idea!! Thanks so much Anne ❤❤❤
Oh, Shawn, thank you so much! I'm so grateful you get what I'm going for here - to find fun, different, easy new ideas that we can all use! Thank YOU for being here!
My first time watching you. I don't do journaling, but am interested in collage art. But at the age of 82, since I definitely on the "home stretch", I don't want to invest a lot of $, time, or supplies, so I love my life "vicariously" through other crafters who do all those other things, like Ceri The Crafter from Wales; just ❤ to watch the process, and I 'll just stick to continuing to make my 100+ monthly greeting cards to send to people.....as long as my hands, eyes, and mind last😅
Judy, you're amazing with your greeting card productivity! I salute you! I'm also a huge fan of dear Ceri Griffiths, who is always on my must-watch list! I hope you dabble a little bit into the junk journaling journey, though - do consider it - some of the very simple things really don't require any supplies other than what you likely already have on hand. In fact, you're giving me an idea for an upcoming video...thanks for the inspiration! Take care and talk to you soon!
So simple yet so many different ways to use circles (on bookmarks, greeting cards). Loved this!! You are very creative. ❤
Thanks so much, Eloise! I really appreciate your watching!
This turned out so great! The happy on the colourful card looked good for a birthday.
Thank you, Julie Anne (with an E!) I did like that label as well.
Lovely!
Thank you, Susan! I had great fun with this one.
Great way to use scraps ❤
Thank you so much, Darcy! Yes, I used a lot of random scraps for this one and they all seemed to have a place in the final product. I appreciate your watching!
Now I know what I’m doing when I get home from work 😂 love this!
Oh, I'm so happy to hear this! Yours will turn out great, I know! Thank you!
I love this idea. The neutral one does appeal to me at the moment but if you were doing these for a certain journal, using colors to compliment it would be really nice. I, too prefer the smaller circles. Great idea. Thanks.❤❤❤
Thanks, Patricia! Yes, the color choices do determine the vibe of the whole thing, which is what makes it so much fun, I think. I appreciate your watching and your thoughtful comments.
You have some of the best ideas. TFS❤
Thanks so much, Loretta! 😊
So cool and I have seen this technique lots of times making cards, but never thought to use them for my journals! And when you turned the little notebook with the bigger circles, OMG I could not believe how the perspective changed. Love it! All of the items were just wonderful. Thanks for reminding me of these. Circle punches are my favorite crafting tool.
Thank you so much! Yes, the potential for circles is almost endless, no matter what paper craft we use! I really appreciate your kind feedback, thank you!
Well I love circles too. And you certainly have given us such imaginative options lately.
Thank you so much, Suzy!
What a wonderful idea love it I have a ton of ideas for this idea thank you Anne yours are amazing
Theola
Thank you so much, Theola! I absolutely love knowing that you find these things useful. Yours will be fantastic with your own spin!
What a great use for a circle punch. Using bits of scraps from a journal could make a great coordinating piece of ephemera. Lots of possibilities going through my mind.❤❤❤
Ann, I'm so glad this set the wheels turning for you! Thanks so much for watching! Your creations will be fabulous!
Hi, I'm new to your channel and I love this idea, so pretty, I have heaps of Christmas scrapbook paper and I might make my cards this year with these circles. Thankyou for this great idea, cheers from Sydney Australia. xxxxx
Oh, Debbie, how happy I am that you’ve joined me here! Thank you! Your Christmas scraps would make fabulous cards - what about stacking them in a pyramid shape to form a tree? Whatever you make will be great. I hope you continue to find useful ideas here. Welcome, welcome!
Yes! Cute! Thank you!
Thank you, Donna! I hope you try it!
I’ve done this with fabric, but never thought about doing it with paper. If I remember correctly, when I did this with fabric, they were called clamshells. Love your idea!❤️. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching! It's amazing how many of our ideas from other crafting disciplines can transfer into journal making, isn't it? I appreciate your thoughts, thank you!
My great niece is a total mermaid 🧜♀️ fan. Great 👍 idea for a journal I want to create to take with us on our road trip in August. You are amazing 👏. 😊
Pam, have a great trip next month, and I love that this motif could go along with us! Think of all the other fun ephemera you'll pick up along the way!
@@annekenlon I know, I can't wait.
Those are quite love the little book
Thank you! I was fun to see what I could do with it.
Lovely Anne! Love circle and dot art! You might be interested in the Portlandia Mermaid Parade coming up in a week or two up by you! TFS! ....stay cool!
Hi, my friend! Thanks for the reminder of the Mermaid Parade - I'd forgotten! I missed the Pride Parade since we were out camping, so we'll try to make it downtown for the mermaid festivities on July 27. I do looooooooove the Portlandia statue! When I was teaching at PSU, my bus stop was near City Hall and I loved watching for the beautiful statue as I went past. You stay cool, too - I think we've almost made it through this wave! (BTW, your r/w/b collages in your short video were stunning - don't lose hope! ❤️)
@@annekenlon Thanks Anne!
And here’s luck! I just realized the Pride Parade is July 20! It’s always been last weekend in June so I assumed we’d missed it but yay, we can go! So many parades! The Pride event is always SO GOOD and now we have the mermaid fun to anticipate as well. 🌈🏳️🌈🧜♀️❤️
Anne I got up, couldn't sleep, so I maid MERMEN inspired by your project!
LOVED those mermen, Brian! Handsome gentlemen "under the sea!" 🎶❤️🌈
Love this idea!! 😊
Thank you so much, Trudy!
Very beautiful gorgeous amazing unique fish tails I 💞 it
Thanks, Linda! I hope you try the technique - it's so easy and really fun!
Such a sweet idea! Thanks Anne!❤️
Thank you, Heather! Have fun making yours!
This is so fun! I’m getting my circle punches and papers out tomorrow and make a few. Thanks so much Anne. ❤
Thanks so much for watching! I know you'll have great fun with yours - it just always seems to turn out perfectly (my favorite kind of idea!)
Such great ideas. ❤ Thanks for sharing with us!
Thank you so much, Deidra! I really appreciate your watching!
it is visually striking! Thank you. The bigger circles would make a beautiful journal cover as well. The belly band would make a great tag. So many options/decisions!
Thank you, Jane! This one was super fun for me, too!
This was fun. Thank you so much for sharing this technique.
The International Museum of Mermaids sounds fantastic. I'm a stained glass artist and interesting anything glass.
Thank you and blessings. 🤗🌹
Thank you, Lynda! Yes, the mermaid museum and grounds were such fun. We so enjoy the glass artistry here in the Pacific Northwest. We have had fabulous visits to all glass art venues in Tacoma - hope to make it to Seattle this fall as well. Thanks so much for watching!
@@annekenlon I did check out the website. Fantastic.😁
Salmon almondine is scaled with sliced almonds. Very lovely.
Thank you! I've never gotten that fancy with my salmon but I could totally see how that would be stunning!
This is so cool
Thank you, Ruth! I hope you try it - it's really fun!
I’m always looking for a good idea for using up patterned papers! I have pads that I can’t make myself toss because they are (mostly) beautiful. But, in general, they will all coordinate, so there’s no guesswork! I feel a paper play day coming on! THANK YOU 😊
Thank you so much, Bev! I, too, have many pads of patterned paper that are sitting in a drawer longing to be put to use. The circle punch comes to our rescue! I appreciate your watching!
I recently got a couple of circle punches and I’ve been taking large photo spreads from magazines and turning the whole thing into circles for other embellishments. I have a ton of circles. This will be a great technique to apply to my creations, thank you!
Oh, I'm so glad you have a use for all those circles now! This really is an addictive technique - I hope you'll love it, too!
Luv this technique. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much, Rosie! Have fun with it!
Anne!!! You always find a genius way to use circles! This is very fun and visually beautiful! That´s a great idea to splash around in the water like Ariel! LOL! TFS!🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🧜♀🧜♀

Marisol, I so appreciate your watching and commenting - thank you! Yours will be terrific, I know!
LOVE-IN IT!!!!! Do take care. Fl.
Jean, I’m so delighted you’re having fun here! Thank you!!!
I think this will work well for my Xmas cards as I have tons of scraps.🎄
SUPER idea to use with Christmas papers - even the tiniest scraps can find new life. Thanks so much for watching.
I did this and it turned out so cute thank you so much for sharing this video.
Janalynn, I'm so happy you tried it! Thank you for telling me!
This is great idea. Thank you
Thank YOU, Juanita, I appreciate you!
Waouwww ! 😮
I love this idea 🎉
It ´s funny and beautiful !
Thanks ❤❤❤
Thanks, Renee! There's certainly a touch of whimsy this technique, I agree - I really appreciate your watching!
I love this, what a good idea. I have quite a few circles punched out and going to try this with them. :-) I am going to subscribe as I found you by chance in my feed.
Hello, and I am so delighted to meet you here! I'm sure your layered-circle designs were terrific. I look forward to your feedback on other ideas here as well!
Maybe the proportions seemed wrong to you because you didn’t overlap the circles as deeply on the larger circle piece. Both came out beautifully! I always enjoy your videos.❤️
Tricia, thank you so much for watching and for your thoughtful comment! I really appreciate your joining me here!
Cute idea!
Thank you so much, Susan!
I want to make these with my group!!!
Oh, I hope you do! This would be fantastic for a group craft activity - everyone punching and trading and swapping and oohing and ahhhing! Have a great time, I'm really excited you got an idea here! Thank you!
I love this!
Thank you, Pam! Hope you try it!
Allthingsnew...me too.
Thank you so much, Phyllis!!!!
That's so funny. I quite literally made a card using this same method today because I was trying to get rid of small scraps and your video came up in my recommended. Uncanny . . . or Google is listening, lol.
Isn't that freaky when that happens? Yes, it's such a good basic for card design and surprising how well it also works in our journals. Thanks for watching!
J'aime beaucoup... Je le fait souvent 👍😉 avec des formes différentes
Merci beaucoup! Cela semble toujours génial, n'est-ce pas ? Merci d'avoir regardé!
I've done this before its great
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Susie. Yes, it's hardly new - I've seen it around and used it myself for years, too, but this was my first time to incorporate into journal elements! Thanks for watching!
Thank you ❤❤❤❤😂
Thank YOU, Maria!!!
Ok thanks gonna do now
Charlotte, I'm sure your were great - hope you had fun with the idea! Thanks for watching!
❤. What fub!
Thank you so much! It really IS fun!
