Good morning dear Carrie, it’s 3 am! Can’t sleep and here I am. Your journals turned out Amazing! I absolutely love the second one you showed. Thank you for the flip throughs, each one is so unique. Have a blessed weekend my friend, big hugs 🤗 ❤
Brenda thank you so much! This really means alot to me! I am not sure how I got so lucky but today I get to spend the day in my craft shed, YAY!!! I wake up daily between 2AM-3AM. It's my internal clock I guess....
I don't get much sleep either Hope....I've been like that for years now. I just roll with it at this point. I figured the alternative to waking up is not waking up so I just remain thankful and full of coffee, LOL
Good morning, sweet Carrie. Finally, I have time to catch up on my videos. Beautiful journals! Thanks for the shout-out. Love ya, girl. Have a fabulous day ❤❤❤
These journals are amazing! I LOVE the open paint chip pocket you made in the first journal and the guest check tuck in the second journal. Both are brilliant! I love all the ruffles in the first journal, the charms on all of them, and the die cut pockets are so cool, too. I love the colors, pages, all the ephemera you made. It is all such great work! I really love them! ❤
Denise, thank you girl!!! Yea It's funny because I can work on three different projects at a time but doing the same kind of project three times is not my thing....I hope you had a wonderful day❤️
Hope thank YOU so much for watching and being here with me! I hope you get some great crafting and/or family time this weekend! Whichever makes you happy😀
We do want to have fun Hope! I never want the creative experience to be filled with dread or worry etc. Thank you for watching. I hope you had a wonderful day❤️
Good morning sis....Cheers! The color combo in all of these are fantastic. Love how they are all similar and yet unique and especially love the spine as a bookmark.
@ThePaperMonkey-Carrie Had a great day of catchup on housework. Been focusing on sorting, organizing, and clearing out some of my stash lately. Getting everything fresh and fantastic for the New Year. ❤️❤️ Merry Christmas, Carrie
I am going to start that Dec. 26th! I've got some cleaning out of drawers and closets etc. I primarily do my spring cleaning the week between Christmas and New Year's I always have. I feel better about starting the New Year by donating what I don't need or use. Merry Christmas Sarah!
Good Morning Carrie! I got a bunch of Reader's Digest from Ebay, and I still have not used any of them, but I need to for sure. I love them. You did a beautiful job on these Reader's Digest. I love them Carrie! I love the printed vellum, it is beautiful! Love all of these journals Carrie, thanks for sharing them with us! Have a blessed day!
Thank you so much Janie! Hey here's a heads up....check your Hobby Lobby's back clearance wall next time you go. Remember how I told you I picked up a bunch of prepackaged vellum on clearance a few months back? Well I saw more of these packages the other day and they had marked them down even more!!!
Love the gold vellum paper. I love how you used the paint chip leftover as a tuck spot - brilliant! I also liked in book 2 how you used the back of the envelope as a tuck spot. I would not have thought about securing the point and using it that way. The Thomas Kincade flip is fun! These are fantastic!
I never had the pleasure of shopping at Tuesday morning. Did have one near me in Massachusetts where I had my precious house that I practically went bankrupt trying to live there. 😢I miss it so much but not the bills❤cute coin wrapper pocket and tag adorableness.. yes I need some major motivation my neverending journal seems like a chore😢 these journals are gorgeous. 😊❤❤❤
So much sweetness in your journals! :o) With regard to the book spine tag that you showed: a creator at a local vintage shop sells bookmarks made from the spines from hymnals backed in leather, and then the spiral bound hymnal journals are sold separately. Such a great idea!
These are amazing! Love the eclectic-ness of them. I understand what you mean about doing more being more difficult. I do get tired of a theme when I make too many at once. Merry Christmas, friend!
I love Echo park sales and yes, I am the same with the sales.. I am looking forward to finding Christmas stuff at the thrift stores after Christmas. I love Angela's paper. I am so excited to use mine. I love the eclectic journals and these colors! Thank you for sharing Carrie.
I feel ya. I made 6 of those Christmas journals (like the one I gave you) and that was just too many! I am struggling with the last one (mine)!. I love your eclectic journals! I have a hard time doing that type of journal.
Good morning dear Carrie, it’s 3 am! Can’t sleep and here I am. Your journals turned out Amazing! I absolutely love the second one you showed. Thank you for the flip throughs, each one is so unique. Have a blessed weekend my friend, big hugs 🤗 ❤
I can’t sleep either Brenda 😮
@ aw sorry about that. It happens to me all the time, I hope you can get some rest. 🙏
Brenda thank you so much! This really means alot to me! I am not sure how I got so lucky but today I get to spend the day in my craft shed, YAY!!!

I love all of these! I agree with you. Doing multiple journals at once starts to feel monotonous, but you clearly overcame that. Gorgeous work.
Thank you so much Angela!!!

Oh I bet those hymnal book marks are beautiful! Thank you so much for watching and always being so kind and thoughtful in your comments❤️
