Thank you so much! I get supplies everywhere...lol Digitals are from Etsy. I listed what I could remember in the description box. The rest from Amazon, craft stores, thrift shops, friends etc. I'm a hoarder. 😊

aww thank you so much for your generous feedback...❤

thank you so much! x

Aww thank you so much! I appreciate that you took the time to watch and leave such generous feedback! x❤

If anyone has not seen this creator's work, go sub to her channel! I am quite sure she is my soul sister and if you like my journals, she has a similar style nature themed beauty for sale in her Etsy shop! 😍

@@tinytreasuresjunkjournals2578 oh my goodness we should do a collaboration!

@@craftyannieinthelight3102 I will message you through Etsy!! I see your beauty just sold!! Whoohoo..It was your good karma for leaving me such a lovely feedback!!!🥰

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and leave such kind feedback, I appreciate it very much!

Thank you!

Thank you so much Maxine! I hope it was worth the second go through with a nice cup of tea...😂❤

Thank you so much for the kind feedback and she has been purchased...x

Thank you so much! I appreciate that you took the time to watch my flip through and leave me this feedback. x

Thank you so much...yes mostly digitals with a few pages and images from some beautiful books I repurpose...x

@@tinytreasuresjunkjournals2578 You did a wonderful job of curating all those digital images. I am still working on culling my favorites from etsy and getting them printed, but there are so many I like it's hard to choose! TFS!

@@auntiecaffeinecrafts I appreciate your feedback and it can literally take me a couple of DAYS just to choose from the digital kits I have collected..lol...then there is the time spent planning on how to actually put them together so they will live happily together, yes! The time we put in is so worth it all in the end though. I hope you will share yours when you have finished creating her! x

Thank you so much Tracy! x

She did get a tad out of control yes...🤣...thank you for taking the time to watch and leave feedback Janet! x

Thank you so much Catherine, I appreciate your time to leave feedback very much! x

Thank you as always Maxine, you are such a sweetheart. I always appreciate your feedback! I tried to get the fall journal done today but she is so huge and I kept tripping over myself as usual and had to give up...lol..tomorrow for sure.. if you love fall colors I think you will enjoy her. x

I do love fall colours. Here is NZ we are in Spring and everything is starting to look lovely and green.❤

@@maxinesheerman8103 oh lucky you!! I have always wanted to visit NZ, it looks sooo beautiful there😍...and oh how I wish I could just skip right from fall directly to spring with you. It is going to be a very long and cold winter here in Canada this year..do you have a spare room to rent? 😂

Aww thank you so much Barbara...and yes I personally plan and assemble most of the journal before I bind the signatures including the embellishments so that I can add and take away pages to make the signatures balanced. Some prefer to do all their embellishing afterwards ..honestly it is really what works best for YOU...x

Thank you Cheryl! Yes..it took me literally an hour or better just to find it...but i felt the same hearing it! x😆

You're so sweet Michelle, thank you...and I can't figure out how to add music to a longer video so for now I will have to keep talking darn it..lol. I am much too fidgety for the relaxing AMSR style, so there's that..😂. xx 🥰

@@tinytreasuresjunkjournals2578 well your asmr is amazing but I like all the sounds. I’d keep it with your sounds! What are you making your videos in? It’s hard to use anything over a minute because of copyright. It does get tricky. There is some music you can find that’s longer but still would need to speed up the videos if you wanted it to match the music.

@@MichelleCollum-Escape2Create I am adding the music in YT editing. I watched a few videos on how to use the YT music but i can't figure out how to drag it to last the full video so I have to find a music clip the length of my video...lol..you are exactly right..I had to speed this video up to 1.5 to make the music fit!..😅 Oh well, I tried...maybe later somewhere down the road when I have more time to sit down and actually spend the hours learning. Thanks for your input....very much appreciated Michelle!! xx😘

Thank you so much! I use many different glues depending on what i need to glue down. My go too staples are fabritac, art glitter glue, tacky glue, glue sticks, mod podge and PVA glue. I hope that helps...x

I appreciate your kind and generous feedback very much, thank you. I promise you I am the last person that could ever help with a tech issue I know it is actually quite simple... so I am told because I have never done it myself... Here is a video on how to print from your phone that might help?This is for an iphone but I see there is a video on android as well. I should probably watch it too! 😆 I hope this helps...x th-cam.com/video/h9TBcHRA92Y/w-d-xo.html

Thank you so much Sandra for your kind feedback and I can promise that you will never stop learning once you are hooked into it. I have been doing it full time for over 5 years and I am still learning. 😊To answer your question, it actually depends on the digitals and your printer. For the most part I print on 32lb premium white copy paper and photo matte presentation paper for the digitals. I will try a print on the premium copy paper first and if I don't feel it is doing the digital justice, I will try the the photo matte. Usually there is no difference whatsoever between the two for me. Your printer settings are also important as well, making sure you choose the highest quality print as your setting. . For all the coffee/tea/distress inks pages, I use anything and everything in my stash. I am a collector and a hoarder of paper...😂 I hope that helps. x

Thankyou for coming back to me. Much appreciated. I probably need to invest in a better printer but I’ll defo have a go at your suggestions. I absolutely am hooked and the feedback I’ve had so far has urged me to continue with my newfound hobby. I just always feel inadequate when I watch all the videos such as yours and the incredible talent you all have. Inspirational to the enth degree. Thanks again for your time. Happy crafting! X

@@sandrabooth7642 You are very welcome! x

Thank you! x

Thank you, I appreciate your feedback! x

Thank you so much! I used at least 10-12 different kits but the cover inspiration and signature centre spread pages were from McSpiritPrints on Etsy. Also GypsyCraftery and AliceArtPrintStore. I apologize but I would have to sit down and go back and sift through all my files to find the rest. I hope that helps! x

Aww, thank you so much! I really appreciate your feedback and you are so right!...lol...this was my 4th attempt to get this video done. Not nervous, just really frustrated...making the videos is my Achilles heel. 😊 I have a very old phone that does not have a pause so if I mess up I have start from the beginning all over again and I have no idea how to edit a video. I was trying to get through as quickly as possible as the first take was 45 minutes and most people have no time for that so I tried to pick up the pace. I was taking out all the ephemera so I could show what the journal looks like pared down and I FORGOT to show it....😂.. I only make these videos for the journals I sell on Esty. The rest I make are private for my custom orders so it is a lot easier for me knowing I am talking to my buyer one to one. I hope that better explains why you are so accurate in your assessment and feedback. Again, I really appreciate that you took the time to watch the video and leave a comment! x

Wow!! This is amazing. And your cover is so creative and beautiful! Love all your journals! I loved see Nosferatu make an appearance in your journal. 🧛‍♂️. Especially with the movie coming out soon! Great job! Love your giggle.

@@MichelleCollum-Escape2Create Thank you Michelle!!....and who?? What is a Nosferatu ?Now you are going to make me go google aren't you! 🤣 I am going to guess it is a vampire or gothic character....if you only knew how far out of my comfort zone this is...I have never been a horror, scary creatures, Halloween, gothic etc. fan but I finally broke down last year and forced myself to collect digitals and make some gothic journals...the theme is starting to grow on me but it certainly isn't my first choice. I do actually love how this one turned out though, but boy oh boy she was a Herculean effort!! 😊xx

@@tinytreasuresjunkjournals2578 oooh yeah. Go look him up and you’ll know the pics that’s represent him. 🥰. This looks like a labor of love and you did it beautifully and creepy all in one.

@@MichelleCollum-Escape2Create I read the wiki...I learn something new every day, so that's his name,. Now I see him in the digitals, yes...duh me...😂Thank you for helping me educate myself! I bet YOU could make an amazing vampire journal having all the added knowledge on them. I would love to see that!! 😍 xx

You are just the sweetest Maxine! I always appreciate your feedback so much, thank you! 🥰

Thank you so much! x

It was definitely a mega project yes!... literally weeks to put it all together I put all my other projects aside because I wanted to keep my focus on finishing her! Only other creators can see and really know how much time goes into one of these chunky monkeys I appreciate your feedback Janet, thank you!. x

Thank you! x

Thank you so much for the kind feedback ....She is totally adorable yes, and was the inspiration at the time I made this journal. I mapologige but unfortunately she is buried in my files and my memory is horrid at the best of times...lol.....I am pretty sure it is either MyPorchPrints or SweetPeaCuriosities but I have so many kits from both of those creators that it would take me a lot more time than I can spare to go through everything and find which kit she belongs to. If you to to their Etsy shops and browse their listings, I am sure you will find it.

​@@tinytreasuresjunkjournals2578thankyou for your fast response, I totally understand of course. Once I print them off I can never remember, especially a year later Your journals are beautiful so glad you popped up in my feed today.😊❤

@@penelopemarshall6320 You are very welcome. and I appreciate you taking the time to watch my flip-through!! 🥰

Oh goodness nooooooo your journals are not boring, your style is just different is all!! I just subbed to your channel and I LOVE the vintage style that you do very much! If I had more vintage and antique books and paper I would be making some in your style as well! I appreciate your feedback and if I had the tine to sit down and learn how to edit and voice over videos, I would do it but I just don't have that in me. I am very tech challenged! I am extremely grateful that at least my journals hold the interest for some people that they tolerate my lack of video skills....😄

Aww thank you so much and I am so happy you found me again. I appreciate that you take the time to watch! I do have 3 more in the works actually, but I have no idea when I will have them finished. I am still trying to finish and list a fall fairy that I started last year!!...lol...but I will do a flip through for them when they are ready for my Etsy shop. 😊

​@@tinytreasuresjunkjournals2578sounds good! I have the alert set for yourTH-cam and your shop. I'm looking forward to them, no matter when you finish!

Thank you! 🙏 Yes, chunky monkey definitely describes my style....lol

I am thinking of doing AMSR, yes! I am just not sure how well my phone microphone captures the sounds...I appreciate the feedback, thank you!
