So many great ideas!! How did I miss your video during this series?? Glad I found it! Thanks for sharing all your wonderful ideas! Love them all!

Hey i just was gifted a huge tote of fabric samples, like you showed, mine were already taken apart and ready to yse. What a blessing. One thing i thought of using them for was a quick easy fabric flip. Your pocket idea is col also. Does anyone else have any good ideas for these samples, i have all kinds of sizes and material.

Fun video. I liked all the things you got accomplished. I really like the trim on the cover.

I absolutely love your journals because they look like all the things I love but at times don’t think I should put into my journals. Thanks for your video.🥰❤

Happy Wednesday Marci💕 Awesome cover and I love the fabric sample pieces. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful ideas, enjoy your week. 🤗Big hugs

I’m enjoying this series! I’m learning lots about putting a journal together! In re to the belly band: could you fussy cut at the top of the flowers? It might be too wide still. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I remember the worry journal! ❤❤

Love the spine as works really well. Nice work all round the ink paper especially 😊❤

I am sorry that a creative woman, who seemed to be inspiring to so many others, dies too young. But I am sure she will look with satisfaction on her life and the footprint she left, I hope her family will heal soon and remember her often with a smile and a good story 💜

Good morning Marci💕 Love the outcome of the book binding tape, I will be on the look out for it. Hope your week is going good, take good care. 🤗Big hugs

Good choice on tape 😊 well done for getting the cardboard off the fabric I think I would have just cut the fabric with scissors as I needed using the line of the cardboard to cut straight 😊😂

Glad you chose the white cover with gold writing. I had a terrible Allegic reaction to some chemical in an addiseive spray had to use cream and histamines as my arm was covered in a rash so I'm very wiry what I use now I sticking to my pritt stick for my glue stick that has been around for years and child friendly because my skin is so sensitive. For anything stronger I use molding paste that seems to be fine for my skin as its acrylic based not chemical 😊

The fabric sample book is so cool. Hooray for your persistence. Book tape is the best stuff.

Good job “new you” for tossing scraps!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I’ll have to order some book binding tape!! That made it so simple!! ❤

Hi Marci! I’ve taken apart many fabric sample books. It takes a lot of man (or women) handling to get them open. It just takes some time and care. You did a great job actually. A lot of times I just twist the staples around in a loop as I pull it out. I think if the pliers would have been bigger it might have been easier for you. That’s a beautiful sample book. I will be excited to see how the pocket comes out! ❤

Wow! It’s like a time capsule in a book version! Thank you for sharing.

Neat idea. One word of caution if you sell your journals- does the paper have a scent once the paper dries? Some people, like myself, have chemical sensativities and depending how severa can make them very very sick, or worse 😕😕.

You have dine a great job of purging and reorganizing. 😊 I am also reorganizing and downsizing all my journal supplies. It will be nice to be done! 😅 Your journal will be great!❤

Hi Marci💕 Ronda and her hubby will always have a special place in my heart, I was sad when I seen the video pop up. 🌸Ronda will be dearly missed 🌸 Awesome progress on your signatures, this is where I struggle the most. Thanks for sharing, hope your week is going good. Take care, big hugs! 🤗

WHOA!!! It’s coming along nicely!! The reorganizing AND the journal!!❤

That is so sad 😔 😢 my condulances to the family hugs ❤ sadly most people with Cancer go too soon. Good decluttering as really made progress

This is gonna be a great journal for your friend! I'm so glad to see your journal supplies had spilled over into your garage. I was beginning to think that I was the only one that had books and supplies stored all over my house. Lol

This is going to be a beautiful journal! I like anything that has to do with music. I'm sorry about Ronda too. I need prayer. My wallet was stolen out of my purse at the Dollar Tree yesterday. This is going to be a long process to get everything fixed. Have to file a police report tomorrow because my driver's license was in my wallet! Lord help me!

❤❤❤

Oh no

Good morning Marci💕 Exciting journal and I love all the items that you have auditioned. Covers are hard for me to decide and its has to be done before I can think about the inside. I struggle with finishing up journals but only because of life then when I get back to it I'm lost. " I'm working on that" 😂 Thanks for sharing, hope you are having a beautiful week. 🤗Big hugs

I am starting a new journal, too. I am using the Dr. Seuss book called Summer. It was one of my childhood favorites. I thought why not? I enjoyed watching your video.

I love the Martha Stewart book because of the color. I know it would be more difficult to make but it's really pretty for the cover. The cover you choose should have green on it as you said since it's her favorite color. I love the page material you chose and the ephemera too! Great job on choosing things for this special journal Marci!💐

This looks like a fun journal. I'm always all about anything green. But I was also thinking of using the world that sings book and putting a green spine or tie closure on it. Happy crafting!

I’m not sure what to add or suggest to add. I think you’re on a great idea track! Can’t wait to see how this turns out! ❤

I love the world that sings because of the gold embossing (tan journal) and add the green to it I think like the mountains pages you found 😊

Interesting story from the lady will be a very interesting journal I'm sure. She will love Wales for the mountains ⛰ ❤😊😅 nice to get great feedback like that when a client wants more of your style well done ☺️😘 like the sheep herding fact too about odoho 😉

What a fun journal! I’m sure your friend is going to love it.

Hey there! I’ve been away from my craft room for some time now but I’m going to try to take you up on the challenge very soon. Better late than never and thank you for thinking of me. Love what you made! ❤

I love these. Great inspiration for a JJ class I volunteer teach.💜🐞

I sent you a message on your Etsy site as you requested. Did you receive it?

Your video was very good but the intro was too long. Sorry. I really don't think intro are important. A nice "Thanks for stopping by" and an explanation of what the video is about is a much better introduction.

I've seen a Heron a few times in Wales though rare but they were definitely real 😂😊😉

Its always nice finding new supraises in our crafts. I'll be getting back to my textile work yay. Loving the white pink ruffles on journal cover texture 😊 glad you had a lovely time at the wedding the setting sounds gorgeous ❤

Hi Marci! It is always fun to find fun surprises of previous projects! Great makes!😊❤

Hi Marci💕 Awesome makes and glad you have been having fun with safe travels. I am totally ready for a trip but I want it to cool down a bit. Thanks for sharing, hope you have a good week. Take good care, hugs! 🤗

I love this project today! I'm actually planning to re do three journals when I get settled in my new home. I think using your scraps and completing this project is such a great idea!💖

It’s always a glorious day when you get to hang out with friends!! So much fun! And so needed!! ❤ Great job using up scraps AND completing a long awaited project!! That is so satisfying!! Is it really a Franken-page if it turns out super cute?! I say no! 😂❤❤

Stuffed pocket, journal topper that uses elastic cord and a Tim Holtz hitch post.

I love pre-made anything! ❤

Mysteries, yes, loved Nancy Drew early on and have loved them ever since!! Great craft ideas. L9ve your tags.

Happy Friday Marci💕 Awesome job with the scraps, I had a play with my scraps and die cut them into shapes it was very successful. Thanks for sharing, hope you have a wonderful weekend. 👍Hugs

It would’ve been sweet to watch you go through them, even with music and sped up. I enjoy seeing those different patterns and colors 🙂

Well, now I have to go organize my paper drawers. A couple of them are so full that it’s hard to open and shut them. And, there’s paper things in there that I’ve had for a few years and haven’t used! Time for them to go! 😂❤

Ive been working hard today and been sweating threads lols as been a hand sewing a patchwork tote bag 😊 glad you could use your scraps up

This was so helpful Marci! I haven't organized my scraps for moving yet so this gives me inspiration and a push I need! I think you did a great job on this and the way you did it really lets you have access to your scraps so you can use them instead of hoard them. Thanks for the ideas and your thoughts!💐
