Decorating a Love Themed Junk Journal with Romantic Victorian Ephemera - Valentine's Craft With Me
You can find the printable kit in my shop at www.artofgemsstationery.etsy.com
Hello, my crafty friend, and thanks so much for tuning in! Today, I used my new Victorian Romance digital printables to start decorating the special love book I'm working on for Valentine's Day. If you love hearts, cupids, love doves, romantic couples, roses and bouquets, this one might be for you! I hope you enjoy the crafting process, despite my griping and complaining about everything from scan resolution and Etsy upload limitations to the weather and colour fading on the originals... (I'll try to keep my lists of grievances out of future videos, hehe.) The full flip through of the complete journal will be up, and the journal will be listed in my shop, on Saturday! Till then, much love and happy crafting.

      Thank you, Catti-jan. 😊 When I cut your paper dolls, I go slowly and meticulously, bit with these tiny little floral edges, I found some ways to “cheat” but still make them look fussy cut. (I’ll demonstrate in tomorrow’s flip through - wish I had figured it out while I was still on the first page of print-outs, hehe.) ❤

      It absolutely is!!! Thank you. And I can't believe I had a mind melt moment as I came to that page, because I had found those Welsh books in such a synchronistic way: my boyfriend and I were on a little road trip, listening to a radio show called The Blue Bus. As we entered the small town of Fort Macleod, one of my all time favourite songs came on - Rhiannon, by Fleetwood Mac. My guy surprised me by pulling in to park in front of the antique shop, and inside, we found a stack of these vintage Welsh books. Why it's so significant to me is that Stevie Nicks has said that Rhiannon is about a Welsh witch! (Some journal pieces are just meant to be.)

    Beautiful Books dear if you save them at high resolution as in 350 to 400 and as a BMP then you can copy them from BMPs and save as Jpegs you will keep more , its copying from JPegs that you lose over time . if you have adobe you can scan the whole sheet and then you can seperate them and resize any of them you wish . so I would Scan them on the whole page before taking them out to preserve the colors and save them at high resolution.

      Thanks so much! I scanned the pages today but have yet to check the quality and resolution. They die cuts are really tiny and will have to be used to scale, otherwise I fear they will be blurry. Still pretty, though. 😊

      @@sarahsjournals you can set your Scanner dear to the resolution size in the settings dear and weather to set as Jpeg or BMPs as well the higher the better to make the best prints if set high you can get away with sizing them a little bigger not too much though but you can also not sure if you have adobe you can also adjust colors and deepen the saturation in the program works really Fabulous also can touch things up as well in adobe , if you do not have you can watch for sales is what I did to get the program you can do some much with it.

    Hi Sarah!! I LOVE these surprise videos!! A lot of times I will re-watch your videos but today I got a new one! Yeah!! What a great haul! The thrift store Gods don't make it to where I live unfortunately where I live we hardly have any thrift sties or antique stores and they ficus on clothes mostly. My sister got me a bag of jewelry off of the Buy Nothing site on Facebook so that was probably the best thing I got but I'm so excited to see what you do with all these treasures and the blue book is going to be gorgeous I can already tell. Thanks for sharing today it was fun and I hope you have a wonderful day! 🥰💙

      Aw, so sorry the thrift shops around you aren’t as good. But what a cool sister you have! Jewelry bags / jewelry jars are the best!!! Thanks for always brightening my day with your comments. 🩷🩷🩷

    I liked the jewelry it had a very relaxed aesthetic also the bird and reptile cutouts were very cool. Hopefully you can makes something unique with them.

      Thanks, Brian! I’ve never seen reptile Victorian cutouts before - very unique and it’ll be a fun challenge to use them.

    Fun finds! The wire bracelet I probably wouldn’t use. I really need a spiral so it’s easy for me to use. The closures are getting hard for me to use. My poor paws.🥲 This is a good video!

      Aw, that’s so sad, especially since you’re such a fabulous artist. Have you heard of red light therapy? I met a lady at the thrift shop who swears by it for her arthritis, and my mom has been doing it and said all her knee pain is gone.

      Thanks, Maggie! I used to avoid haul videos like the plague 😂 because it felt kind of braggy? But lately I watched a few on other journal channels and realized they’re actually helpful, and gave me ideas of things to look for. 🩷

      Thanks so much! I'm planning to do a French themed journal at some point. I grew up in French Immersion school (K-12) and although English is my first language, I actually learned how to read and write in French first.

    Sarah, I have no words for this one! I can‘t point out a favorite in this journal, it’s just extraordinary stunning, amazing and beautiful at all ❤❤❤ - watching this flip through was like omg, when ever you turned over a page … because you mentioned the peacock washi tape not cooperating when pulling it, it often helps when you put it into the microwave just for a few seconds … and - I‘m thrilled about the kit with Cat‘s paperdolls and have to head right to your etsy shop! 🤗Angelika

      Thanks so much, dear Angelika!!!! And WOW! You may have just drastically increased my washi tape collection!!! I have a few rolls that always peel shredded, or stick to the lower layer. I'll try this! ❤❤❤
