      This is great for a beginner like me and I agree and I am very thankful for you getting to the point right away. Because if it takes longer that 20 seconds to the point then I am out and move on to someone who does. This was was a great and very useful video. Thank you.

    @user-te7zz8mv3x Год назад +9

    using an old book to ‘store’ stamped images as well as collages are great ways not to lose sight of pieces for later projects.
    by the way, the hand cream tip is perfect for a messy person like me!

    I loved the scrap book! If you would take the time to put those scraps in your scrap book as you were working on a project not only would you have a reminder of the project but you would have a lot of coordinating elements and perhaps you could even tear the page and use it in your project

  • @welcomeastheflowersinmay4882
    @welcomeastheflowersinmay4882 2 года назад +28

    Kelly, I love your tips! My favorites were putting on hand lotion before crafting, using pattern paper to stamp images, making a stamped images book later use, and gluing paper scraps into a book for later use. I would like to see more of the suggestion to expand a spine with fabric. I cannot visualize the finished journal. I think I will search for a video on this technique. It is an intriguing idea. Thanks for the tips!

    • @rootpursuit

    • @jodigardner8289
      @jodigardner8289 16 дней назад

      I loved all the tips! However I was thinking the same thing about the rounded book binding and the fabric one. I thought this looks interesting I wonder how it'll turn out but then there were no "finished images" I only heard of junk journaling literally 45 mins ago!! (Yours is my second video on the subject) Maybe I'm just too new to it, but I can't picture what those books would look like in the end! Good video though!

  • @navyboymommygramma
    @navyboymommygramma 2 года назад +3

    I LOVE that last idea. And I'd be careful with the hand lotion one because you don't want to leave prints of your own digits on your projects, but on the other hand.... that might add a cool touch to what you are making. 😊✌

    TFS Kelly- I learned several new things & love that it is so short! However I couldn’t figure out what to do to make the expanding spine, and I would really like to see how it is done! I like the idea of the curved spine- do you simply cut down the center and use the entire tube?

    • @rootpursuit
      @rootpursuit  2 года назад +3

      I am making a video soon on the expandable spine! 🌺🐿🌺

    Great video!!! All the tips in one place, finally lol. I have a tip that I can't remember where I saw, but have never seen since. And can't believe that bcuz it's genius. If you stamp regular tissue paper (with archival ink), tear it out and Mod Podge it to your page, the tissue paper will disappear upon drying and all that's left is the image. It'll make you look like a maestro!!! This also works if you draw the image yourself as long as you use waterproof pens like Sakura Microns.

    Loved the tips! Especially the stamped images on tissue for future reference! I also appreciated the non-music audio format. I subscribed!!
