Hi Karen! Great idea to help get out of a slump. Love all the crinkles of your junk journal! So many goodies too💕
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you for sharing all of this - especially about your creative slump. I got that tip from Karla Frizzelle - I know it works for me and I am so happy that it worked for you friend. I love your cross stitch. I don't know if I could do that but I will tell you I recently met a lady who was doing some slow stitch on a pair of old jeans...well that got my creative juices flowing. I haven't done it yet but I sure might! I hope you have a fantastic Labor Day!!
@ThePaperMonkey thank you Carrie! Ohhh slow stitch on jeans. Hmmm
Yes enjoy what you do! Really great glue book.
Thank you watching and commenting
Hi Karen! Your journals are awesome! I always love using everyday used papers to fill up a junk journal…perfect! Thanks for sharing 💕
Thank you so much!
Karen I loved these journals! You know what? I I have never done a single signature simple journal to just write ideas in so thank you for this inspiration! I can't tell you how my mind was reeling as I was watching this! Hope it's a fabulous Wednesday.
I'm so happy this inspired you! Happy Wednesday
Great haul friend! That romantic style book has some beautiful images...maybe journaling cards??? I am working on journaling cards this weekend so that's on my brain, LOL
Yes all the ephemera! Thanks for watching
Tab cards for crafting sound fun. I always pass over those.. maybe I should pic some up too. Lots of good finds, Karen. Enjoy those, especially the word book. I’m currently fussy cutting that one myself. Carol has sent me the one of the police station! 🥹
Hey Guys! I pick up those tabs cards ALL the time - LOVE to use them as pockets. If I making the journal for someone in particular I will use the initial associated with their name.
Crafty friends are the best at inspiring us! I'm still trying to remember why I got the tabs. Lol
Hi Karen! It is so fun when we can find useful items through thrifting! It is a lot of fun! The Richard Scarry books are really fun. I know Carrie really loves them! Thanks for sharing your haul!
It is the best! Thanks for watching.
Hi Karen…wow, you made some awesome ephemera books! Love them TYFS…woo hoo to 100 subscribers 🎉🥰🌸
@CarolineontheHillside Thank you Caroline!
You are so welcome! Please feel free to donate or share any of the items that I sent. You are like me - the giving is the best part😊 Thank YOU so much for your support and friendship. Happy Wednesday friend.
@@ThePaperMonkey thank you again and yes the giving is the best part
Hope I was your 100th subscriber. I love your enthusiasm. You sound just like me when I get excited and flustered. I enjoy how you try things for us on tv in your pj’s. most of us do that, even this granny. Listening to Cajun for 20 years. Don’t stop being you. Love your book. It is what I was looking for. I do have some but not strong kind. Will try.
Thank you so much MamaRazz!
Watching Carrie’s curated boxes are some of my favorite happy mail. Truly. Haha. I love the Richard Scarry tag. The chiffon fabric is gorg, too. You will be busy for days with that box, Karen!
Thank you! I sure will!!!!
I have been watching lots of TH-cam videos and the Netflix show, Dexter. 😊
I love all the colors! I just finished an art journal that was created for a "tween" little girl! I am super excited and will try to post a flip through this weekend. Have a super great week!
Thanks Carrie!
Nice finds
Thank you Alma!
Great haul Karen! TYFS😊
Thanks Carrie!
Woohoo - you are now an official Honorary Cajun friend! Thank you for shouting out KRVS. I love to promote our local culture and they do such a great job. Oh and by the way it's a scientific fact that zydeco does help you clean faster and better 🤣
Thank you suggesting it! Love the scientific fact. 😉

I really enjoyed your take on glue books. I’m a quilter and the color you say is your fav is also mine. I hope you add some quilts that you have made to your glue book as well. We all need something to inspire us to keep doing what makes us happy. Thank you for sharing your beautiful glue book.

Awesome collage book
Thank you! 😊
Hi Karen! Love your flip through…collage is so fun and going through our art journals is so special. The memories are forever in our hearts, and come to life all over again on the page. Awesome 🥰🌸
So true Caroline! Thanks for watching
Love you, my friend! Special memories with your mom are so precious. ❤️
Thanks so much
Hello. Thank you for sharing this book. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the flip through. I've been wanting to do some collage but think I won't be very good at it. It gave me some ideas definitely. I have been in a real creative slump lately and also feeling down and don't want to think about the holidays. I lost my mom this year so the holidays will be hard for sure. Again thank you for sharing your collage book and stories. I hope you have a blessed day.
@angiec2024 Huge hugs to you. I lost my mom 2 years ago. It makes the holidays different. Make sure and take time to remember some favorite memories when things get to be too much. I'm happy to be an inspiration. Creative slumps happen start with something small or clean your space and see if you find an inspiration
love this! looks so fun to make!
Thank you! It was fun.

Hi Karen! You have a great supply of ephemera and tags! Love them all with your ephemera folder! Tfs🥰🌸
Thanks Caroline
Your ephemera folder is awesome! It would be great if you could do a process video on that because I am not understanding how the tape attaches to the next page. 🤯
It's on my list for videos. Stay tuned.
Great job on all your tags! Love the sparkly robots! I like how you keep it simple but looking good!!
Thanks Laura!
