You give me so many hours of enjoyment and inspiration. Thank you!
I’m having SO much fun watching these videos of you altering this book! Thank you Gayle!🥰 I have Fibromyalgia & most days I have this internal struggle where by brain wants to craft but my body doesn’t. So watching videos like yours helps me fill that need while I rest.❤️
In same boat, it definitely helps me to watch craft videos. Sometimes it's to fill the hole of not crafting , and other times I've watched so much that it spurs me to do something x
Your videos are never boring! I enjoy spending time with you and hearing your ideas and thoughts and your heart. Thank you for sharing your life, Gayle. I pray the Lord will have the perfect medicine present itself for your daughter to ease all her symptoms and to give you peace in it all.
I just love hearing your early morning self!!!! You are such a darling to come spend time with each day!! And, I am so loving this altered book....I'm looking for the just right book to do one too!! Yours is beautiful.
P.S. I love watching you collage, and I am sure everyone that is watching feels the same way....so don't change a thing about how you video your work.....it's what we love!!
I got behind last week, because I work on a fruit and vegetable farm and we were planting, so I have watched 4 in a row, never get tired of watching you.
You are so cheerful every time. I love to hear you laugh about something and laugh about yourself! Sure wish i had your bright sunny attitude!...hugs
I so love this project, Gayle! Now I have one million and one projects on my list...LOL
Really enjoying these videos.not boring at all.
Thank you for another beautiful day crafting with you! I love it! Your Pages are SO WONDERFUL! Sorry to hear about your daughter! It is a disease that is so heart wrenching for our loved ones! My now 21 year old grandson was diagnosed with it when he was 14 or 15. He has it at times under control but other times not. Was not able to enjoy his senior year of HS or go to college. They are hoping to find some training for him to pursue a career at home. Not what we had planned for him but he doesn’t complain and is a trooper for that. But what will his future behold? Sure hope and pray they can find meds or infusions for your daughter soon! ❤️
Prayers for your grandson too! ❤️
Love watching you collage. Thanks for sharing. It helps so much when you explain why you choose the paper and colors for the pages. I
am learning
I always come to listen to your stories more than the journaling. But i love it too. 😁😁😁❤️
We have 20 acres and grow most of our vegetables and my husband and I love sitting under this group of trees between two pastures after a hard day of planting or weeding. Its always windy here and you can hear it coming through the trees its so peaceful. I keep asking for a large screen gazebo out there so I can just sit and do crafts when its nice out.
Really love all your collage work on this book the layering is really pretty.
Wishing you and your family many blessing. Hugs
I'm having so much fun with you watching this series. You crack me up, cracking yourself up. I know this is different for you not inking every scrape, but it is gorgeous...give yourself a break.
The sun is SO good for you!!
Collage away Gayle. I’m watching at bedtime with wine and it makes for sweet dreams. Thank you!
You’re my kind of gal!! ❤️
I am so sorry to hear about your daughters chronic illness. It must be such a worry for you all. She sounds like a strong woman and is surrounded by such love and support which is such a blessing. I hope she starts to improve a little soon and can find a medication that she isn't allergic too. I hadn't even heard of an altered book until you started yours. Today I decided to finally give it a go. I had a book I picked up for a few pence I was just going to use for the pages so I decided that would work great as my first attempt. I'm not even sure how I will use it. It's going to be a perfect project to do in the evening while watching TV with the family. I am just using lots of bits of paper and scraps I have had for a while and doing lots of collage. I think I will have to try your strip page idea. What I am enjoying about making my first altered book is that I can just play and not worry to much as if it doesnt go to plan its not as if it really matters, it's only for me and the book wasn't anything particularly special in the first place. I really hope things improve for your family soon 💜
It is fun watching you and others collage and see how you approach it. Even when I take inspiration from others, I’m finding that the end result is unique to to me. You must find that to be true too. I hope your daughter is feeling better. Facing Crohn’s is such a challenge. Sending healing prayers.
Every time you say, “I think I want some music”, I think you are going to turn on the radio!! So funny.
If I didn’t live way way way across the pond, I would drive you to your daughters!!!! My job has now come to an end and a road trip sounds like fun. We could eat chocolates and sing along to music and I could quiz you about journals!!!!!!! Hahaha. Lol. TFS as always 😻x
What fun that would be!! ❤️
I hope your daughter and husband get to feeling better soon! Hugs to you and your family!! For the record I don't think you have ever put out a boring video, but that is my opinion.... I think you are a natural at this and I am so jealous, but you give me great ideas!! So keep doing what you are doing!
When gluing two pages together in an altered book, close the book before the glue dries, press firmly from the spine to the edge. It will should prevent buckling. If you're worried about glue spreading put a piece of waxed paper before and behind the pages, glue, then close and press.
Oh my dear you made some wonderful pages. I like watching ánd listening to your kind and joyful voice. Thank you for sharing 💜💜💜
I love crafting in the morning before my day starts 😀
Not sure if it had been said but the edges of tin foil boxes work as tear edges as well. Just a cheap frugal tip :)
Alycia Wieler great tip! Creative Blessings
thanks for that tip..never thought to recycle the strips for crafting.
HI GAYLE-I AM REALLY LOVING THIS SERIES-YOUR VIDEOS ARE GREAT-WISHING GOOD HEALTH TO YOUR FAMILY-TFS-HUGS/BLESSINGS
Safe travel! Loving this project. On my to do list. So many things I want to do! Thanks for always making my day as well as making me laugh! Just love you!
I’m really enjoying your altered book. I’m trying one myself. Gayle, you are never boring. Just keep chatting because we talk to you too.
I agree with you about the wind thru the trees. I spent 10 summers a Lake Tahoe and really miss the wind in the pines and cedars
Your videos make me so happy! Tfs!
I've LOVED watching this along with you!
Yes!!! Thats what I suggested. Hope the tear rulers make your life easier 🙂 lol love ya! You can put sticky dots or glue cork on the back of them if youd like.
I'm really enjoying watching you work on your glue book but I enjoy watching everything you make! Have a safe trip!
This book is so nice. Grate ideas. Love watching and hearing.
Very beautiful. It was so much fun to watch someone create with my designs. I love how you get an idea for a page and just go for it. Thank you for another great video.
I just love seeing notification that you have another video nothing like having my coffee and a little bit of Gayle in the early am ❤️
Beautiful pages , as always. Love the bright happy colors! Best wishes to your daughter.
This book is great! Thank you for sharing
Love these pages you have done..🌷
You make it look so easy. I seem to struggle more with my pages!
Just takes practice, Rinda! I do this nearly all day every day, so have had lots of practice! Keep at it, my friend! ❤️
Okay, I'm following you closely as this is my first Altered Book. So far, I'm loving it !!! I'm folding my pages like yours as I too have pictures in my book. I have some of the kits you are using because I'm not real good with collages but feel like the kits do the work for me. Thanks for your easy style of crafting, it's a pleasure.
This journal is awesome and I love the color papers from your kits,thanks for sharing😍🌴
I love theses pages, it s very very lovely 👏👏👌👌💕💕
What a great focal point. Love it
Loving what you've done today, both pages are so pretty. I hope you find your daughter well, enjoy your time with her.
Ok, now I’m itching to start an altered book! I need to FINISH something! Your book is coming along so nicely! Love it!
I hope the drive is easy and your daughter is doing better. x
Early morning crafting, talking AND video making? I’d need a coffee IV plugged straight into my jugular! 🤣
Loving this book. 😍x
well you have made me want to go back and finish my altered book....beautiful work thanks.
Love your laugh; you are a half-full person which I makes my day. You need to clip down your pages with bull clips so your arm is free.
I love watching your collage process and hearing your stories. So sorry you had to give up your crafting Retreats to be there for your family...what a great Mom and wife you are.
Have your Son-in-law look at your eye (as a professional😉), because only one eye does not tear if it is allergies...both do.
Loving your collages !!
Really enjoyed seeing you create these lovely spreads, Gayle, and hearing your comments and chat! Thank you!
Thank you for your ideas. I'm learning so much. I really like these two pages you did today.
Oh Gayle you do make me giggle! Your videos are so good and I could listen and watch all day! Hope your family are improving.
Love your videos. Just looked up the tearing tool on Amazon wow was so surprised I have c couple of those but didn't know what they were which is bad I worked at JoAnn fabrics for 12 years. Because of you I have 5 pages done in my altered book. thanks.. Hope your daughter is better praying for you and your family hugs
Looking great...hope your daughter is feeling better!
Never boring!!!
Both spreads are lovely! Prayers and positive thoughts to your daughter. Have a safe happy journey. Wuvs ya tons!!! ❤xo💜xo💙xo💛xo💖xo💚
i'm so glad your doing this as a start to finish! excited to see how the tearing rulers will work. how nice that you and mr A had some quiet time on your deck.... i love the sounds of wind thru the trees as well. we have a couple big pine trees and it sounds like i'm right in the forest. xo
Oh my gosh Gayle, my eyes have been itching like crazy and tears literally running like two faucets. My BFF gave me some of her eye drops for dry eye. They are a light steroid. They are the only thing that have given me any relief. Our pollen count has been really high this year. I am really enjoying this series on your altered book. Your digital kits are all beautiful.
Looking good! Safe travels and hope things are much better "down the road". Hugs!
Nothing you do is boring for me! I watch your videos everyday. Even the old ones. Hope you had a safe trip to your daughters!🤗
You are amazing Gayle! :)
You had me lol today. Yes i do talk to you when you ask do you like this or maybe this. The good news is i always pick the same ones you pick. I love your work and your stash of goodies. You always make my day...xo
Luv the way the journal is coming out :) I won the tear rulers, I found out on another video, I was happy :) Nature is so beautiful!!
I love that mushroom sticker.Beautiful pages.
I think that these pages are my favorites in this book so far!! 😊
loving this!
After you mentioned using a quilting ruler for tearing I got my square one out and tried it. Perfect. I also tried tearing with one of the plates for my Big Shot , also perfect. Thanks for the tip.
I have enjoyed this book so much. I’ve gotten a free lesson and I love those especially as a new 🐝. We are moving and my husband went through his old masters degree books and I’ve found two I would not allow him to get rid of them. As soon as the movers place my boxes I’m not even going to set up my crafting room I’m getting started. It’s been driving me crazy not crafting with you which is what I’ve been doing these past 3 months ! Thank you for all the thoughtful lessons laughs and talent you give to us. Prayers for your daughter and your family as chrones is such a horrific disease. I must learn how to download digital kits too. I’m lost. Yours are so beautiful I’ve been to your shop.
Gayle hope your daughter recovers soon, I dint know much about her illness but I wish her a speedy recovery, it’s also not a pleasant thing for you. I’ll have her in my prayers. Your altered book is coming out beautiful. I love them but I get wavy pages from the glue😢
I've been a fan for a while, can't remember how long but definitely since last year. I love to relax and watch you craft whether or not I craft along. I'm more the silent type not because I'm deaf, normally I don't comment. But when you were cutting that peachy paper ribbon I thought, why not use pinking scissors to save yourself some trouble since the edge of the ribbon is similar? Love your journal making and embellishments, they are so unique and amazing! Hopefully someday I can buy some of your digital downloads or something and have fun with them. Much love from Maryland. Have a wonderful evening.
Try tearing with the small end under the ruler, metal ruler and flat surface will work great!
We working in my altered book with a book theme. With pictures of book and pictures it is a bit of longer than use and still taking out pages and glusing pages together. Like your pages as inspiration.
Your book is looking lovely Gayle! I hope the drive to see your daughter is uneventful and that she is feeling well!!
It just gets more lovely! Thanks for taking the time to do this ahead. I enjoy your videos so much. Wonder if you trim the page turned under slightly, it would help with the bubble?
very nice pages!
Fun project today!
Tearing the edges off looks like something you could do while watching TV with the hubby.😊
As you say, "So much fun!" Yes, it was. Thanks, Gayle!
Awesome❤️
Nice page!
Hola hermoso me encanto 💖mucho gracias por compartir el vídeo
Awesome!
What is that awesome little brush? Love that, and it's brilliant how it softens the edges of the mushroom sticker. Great video. Thanks!
OMG my mother had the collection of those books
Omg Gayle on the stamp that you put under the guy reading the book it said Forlī and it is the city in Italy where I used to live, where I met my hubby, where we got married and where my daughter is born ❤❤❤
Wow! So cool! ❤️
Hi Gayle...🌸🌼 hugs!!!
Hi Gayle It is 2:47 and I am still in my PJ's. I have been in my craft room since 8 am.
I would rid with you to your daughters if I was there. I know just what you mean. I don
t go many places now because of being a widow. I really have to force my self and take lots of deep breaths. City traffic turns me in to a person I don't like. LOL This journal is really beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I do talk to you, every time you sneeze I bless you.
Love the mushroom on that page it is all looking good.
And if anyone can give me some hints on how to upload a video to RUclips I would really appreciate any help.
🌸
Hi Jeannie! Google “upload a video to You Tube” and there are videos and step by steps galore. That’s how I figured it out the first time! Hugs to you! ❤️
Too much fun is dangerous ! Lol
If you upload the video to Windows Movie Maker you can use the RUclips format setting and then the video file will upload to RUclips faster.
I have uploaded large concert videos files fairly quickly after I started using Windows Movie Maker and the RUclips setting
My best work is done while in my jams!
Oh no, you've just shattered my certainty that you and I are in sinc and communicate telepathically. I'm now broken. ;-)
About halfway through (as you finished the second page) you said you wished you could hear us :-) Well, here's my two-cents...I love the page spread but I think it's hilarious that you went to all the trouble to cover a book page with torn strips (brilliant idea), and then covered the strips with a design printed on...book pages! LOL.
It’s sort of the definition of crazy, isn’t it? Haha! ❤️
I have the We R Memory Keepers rulers. I know Westcott has a metal one. Red River Paper Co. has a metal one, but it is $40.
I just screamed like you’d here me - keep the cup !! Oh Gayle be careful tearing keep the cup!!! My husband came in my room and said , Cheryl she can’t hear you and she’s the expert SHH and stop talking to her😰 It kind of made me a bit sad cause he was right!I’m going to keep talking anyway🤗
Keep talking, Cheryl! I’m pretty sure I hear you all sometimes!! You’re husband’s reaction makes me giggle! ❤️
Hello Gayle, your videos are the first I have subscribed to. Is there an easy way to watch them in order? For instance, I have been watching altered book “tales of fantasy “, but find myself searching for the next one in order as there seem to be several different craft with me altered books. Your work is beautiful by the way.
If you go to my channel you should see a heading for playlists. They should be helpful to cut down the number of videos to sift through. There is also a heading or tab for videos and those are in chronological order with newest at the top. Hope that helps! ❤️
Gayle, l was once told that the more devices you have the slower your internet will be! If you can turn some devices off while you up load your videos it might help.. just a suggestion... It might help..
Hello Gayle xoxoxo : )
Loving this project and I'm making one along with you. I hope this isn't a silly question but what do you use the book for when it's finished? Hope you're daughter is feeling better soon. Safe travels Gayle. Xx
No such thing as a silly question! It is a journal like any other...the journal cards in the pockets are journaling space and I’ve created other journaling spots that you’ll see in upcoming videos. It’s almost like the collage pages are the “scrapbook papers” or “digital papers” that decorate other journals. ❤️
