Every video you make gives me an immediate urge to go to my studio and create. Thanks for all the inspiration!
I’m so pleased to hear that, thank you.
Same!!!
Hi, Ceri. I just wanted to let you know how you helped me try something I thought I could not do. A few weeks ago you demonstrated making a gluebook/folio project. I've tried making these things before and failed. Your instructions were so precise, I immediately started work on my own project. IT WORKED! I made one like yours and decorated it with a kit of spring robins paper. It only took a few days to complete. I am so pleased with the results and I owe it all to you!! You are an incredible teacher!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
Thank you so much, I think you’re referring to the gluefolio which I was inspired to make by Nicole. relax, cut, glue. They are so much fun, congratulations.
What an awesome way to use all my old labels and such. Thanks Ceri for the inspiration. ❤
Have fun
Just bought a package of labels at my thrift store. My husband was concerned they wouldn’t work with our printer. I laughed and told him they weren’t destined for our printer! I can’t wait to use your techniques on them!
That is awesome, have fun Susie
I love printing on labels too 😊 gel printing… writing on them… endless possibilities! Merci
You are so welcome!
Thank you Ceri, what a good use for those labels
Glad you like them!
Ceri: a great reminder as to how great these labels turn out. Carol from California
Thank you Carol
Really enjoyed watching these techniques. Since retiring, I have many labels left over. Now I have a reason to pull them out and make something with them. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful
I have tons a label rolls left over from when we still used a dot matrix printer. You have given them new life Ceri. As for your rubber stamps that no longer adhere to your stamping block-if you have any zig adhesive you could recondition the back after cleaning by spreading a layer of the zig, let it dry then apply another layer. Zig remains tacky enough that it should stick to the acrylic block-then you just store it on a piece of acetate. I use this technique to recondition my cutting mats for my Silhouette Camio.
Thanks!!! Good information.
Great tips thank you Grani, I normally use a bit of glue stick but it was not on my desk at the time of filming.
Great video thanks for the inspiration! Most of the time, cleaning the back of your stamps with hand sanitizer will help them cling again to your block. It is somehow related to restoring electrostatic properties… works for me anyways! Nice regards from Québec, Canada!
That's a great idea
😅 I burst out laughing when I heard you say "ain't" !! Watching you from the mountains of Tennessee. Ceri you would fit in here just fine. Love all your videos !
Jayne, living amongst the mountains sounds perfect. Thank you
Enjoyed watching you create. I would never think of fastforwarding you. Lol
Yay, thank you!
Your videos are soothing, not boring. Fun labels.
Thank you
I have a lot of stamps but don't use them much, but you have inspired me "to stamp the daylights" out of something right now. Thank you.
Have fun!
Always happy to see a video posted from you, Ceri. Thanks for sharing your technique with us!
You are so welcome!
This. Is a fabulous idea. Liked seeing your storage idea for the labels, too. I watched the whole thing and glad I did. TFS. 🥰🙏
Thank you so much!
I love these, and have made them in the past. Renewed interest now, just ordered some more labels. I like them in my ' writing' journal. Thank you Ceri. Very enjoyable.
Wonderful!
You can also get oven mats from Walmart etc. Very good because they are to be used in an oven so if food spills over while cooking it will drip on the mat and won't mess up your oven. And they are priced very reasonable!
You are right Sharon.
I can't believe how easy this is, thank you for sharing till nx time.
My pleasure 😊
Thanks so much for the video Ceri, the labels look great. It's amazing how when you start with stamp collecting, you can't stop... Lol
So true
I bet the Ivy Stamp was Personal Stamp Exchange -PSX. Their beautiful Victorian type rubber stamps and adorable catalogs were the beginning of my rubber stamp addiction back in the day!
Thanks for the info!
I do something similar with TH Field Notes. I’ll stamp several sheets of tracing paper with the entire sheet of the stamps (I haven’t harvested the stamps from the red rubber background). I’ve also got reels of labels from my old employer. They bought a new label maker and it wouldn’t take the labels from the old label maker. It’s fun to explore and just have a play. Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
Sounds like fun, yes labels on a roll can be great for projects.
Mr. Ceri, these are so lovely, and I love them a bunch. I have some labels also and I really didn't know what to do with them. You have given me some great ideas for them. Thank you so much for sharing and God Bless. 🥰💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍(🐞🌹🦂🌵)
Glad you like them, thank you Rose.
Another fantastic creation❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you for showing us this process. Your labels turned out awesome.
I'll definitely be trying this now. 😊
Wonderful Janice.
Love love love this. Just received a whole box of office supplies from a retiring teacher. New project! Thank you!
Have fun!
Along time ago I read that using lip balm, like chapstick, on the back of stamps that no longer stick will help them to stick again. It does work. I enjoyed your video a lot.
Great tip, thank you
I always love your content. I have been wanting to try this technique whenever I see you use your labels on ephemera.
Very fun and great results! 💜 💜 💜
Fantastic! Loved watching this (no fast-forwarding here). :) What great ideas, and what wonderful makes from your score at the shops. Thanks for sharing your creativity, I absolutely love your channel.
Thanks so much! 😊
Thank you so much for the ideas and demonstration. Your ideas are most helpful.
You are so welcome!
Thank you! Now off I head to my craft room to make some labels!
Have fun!
Great addition to any stash
It sure is
I love this idea. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant!! ❤ I have a bunch that I was going to throw them in the bin. Thank you so very much for sharing. 💕🥰💕
You are so welcome, glad it was helpful.
What a brilliant idea, I must try this.
I love these!. “I made “artsy labels” from your video and just love, love, love them!! Now I can’t find them! 😂😂😂😂
Lol……sounds a little like me Connie.
Love it as always.
Hi Ceri! These are amazing and you’ve inspired me to give these techniques a try!! Thank you for showing us! 🌸
You are so welcome!
THANK YOU SO MUCH...very inspiring.
I am going to try this technique.
On the heat resistant matt...they have them at Walmart and anywhere that you can buy a new ironing board...they also have them on line... just ask for a heat resistant matt and several should come up for you.❤ TTFN... SORRY... HELLO EVERYONE HAVE A FABULOUS DAY 😊
Thank you for the tip
new to meeee - great tip!! thank you again Ceri
Excellent as usual, Ceri.
Great creative ideas, thanks for sharing. ☺️☺️☺️

I enjoy creating labels, tags, clusters, bookmarks, and cards. OH! and pretty (floral) storage boxes! An idea I got from YOU, Mr. Ceri. THANKS A BUNCH!
Love it, thank you
Thanks for all the ideas ❤
Glad you like them!
Thanks Ceri, like this process!

Thanks so much Barbara
Ceri ~ you are a great teacher of all things with a process. Thanks for sharing! Kim
Thank you so much
These are so beautiful! Little pieces of art! I’ll be rewatching and making some. You help break through my blocks and give me an, “I can try that!” Attitude. Thank you!! And your a delight to watch!
Thank you Jennie
Great Video. So helpful and you make it all look so easy. 😊
I have not been fortunate to find sticker labels on my thrift shop runs. I will still keep looking. Office supplies and crafty items have been at a minimum.
Thank you for the amazing inspiration ❤
You are so welcome Julie, loving your videos even if I don’t always comment.
Such fun 🎉great idea 💡 👍
Thank you 🤗
Starting to think that you may be a creative genius 😃
I doubt it but thank you for the compliment.
Thanks for sharing this video I absolutely felt inspired. I have a box of labels that I was going to stamp on but this gives me more layers that I had not considered
Wonderful!
Love these.
Another item to salvage and give new life to, yay!! Thank you Ceri! 🖌😊
You are so welcome!
You are amazing. I have been following you for a while now and I love your videos. I always learn something. Thank you for all the tutorials and the inspiration. ♥️
You are so welcome
I just picked up a giant roll of 5x7 labels and 2x4 labels at a garage sale. This is a GREAT idea and timely for me!
Great find.
Your projects are so marvelous!
Thank you Amy
Hi Ceri. Thanks for sharing how to do this. 💞
You are so welcome
Definitely want to see how you use the dried up wet wipes!!
Future video I promise.
That marbled background look is so lovely, Ceri. I’ll be on the lookout for labels now. ❤
Wonderful
Those mats are also oven mats for protecting the bottom of an oven from spills.Barbecue section, too.
So I’ve heard, thank you
They’re whatI use and they’re a whole lot cheaper, too
Love it ❤️
These are beautiful.
Thank you! 😊
I definitely want to have a go at this, love them!
Wonderful
Tfs. So many good ideas!!
Thanks so much! 😊
I "stole" that label idea from you because I like the labels a lot because they are so useful for decorating letters/envelopes, gifts and even file folders.
For using my rubber stamps I use acrylic blocks to wich I adhered Tsukineko's Tack'n'Peel. The mat looks like a reusable baking sheet. 🥰
Thank you, its not a baking sheet but you could easily use one.
Great idea
❤ thank you
You’re welcome 😊
Great technique Ceri. Like your results a lot
Thanks so much
delightful!
Thank you
Thank you Ceri! You delivered as promised and did not disappoint! Can't wait to play with the labels I have!
Yay! Thank you!
Always fun
Thank you
The labels are great! I just got some labels and needed to know the best way to use them. Thank you🥰
Glad it was helpful
A fun project Ceri. TFS Hope you have a great day. 🌞
Thank you! You too Donna
Geniale!
Lovely 😊
Thank you! 😊
Great video! So many ideas to try out. TFS
Have fun
I have used watercolor on labels with great success but do use glue stick when using them. Enjoyed the video.
Interesting, when I did watercolour I did wet on wet and maybe used to much water.
So fun❤😊
Thank you
Brilliant 😊
Thank you
You can search for teflon baking paper or reusable baking paper. I've bought mine on amazon there were 5 or 6 in a pack for round about the price of the tim holtz one and they are the same I would say.
I recently picked up a box with office supplies in a charity shop with a pack of Labels for the back of ring binders. Now I'm thinking about printing on them with the gelli plate and make unique backs for the binders I store my stencils in.
I usually wash my stamps if they aren't sticky anymore with warm water and dish soap and let them air dry to make them stick to the stamping block again. Works fine for me.
Steph, word of warning………if you put you labels face down on a gelli plate they may come off the backing paper unless you’re careful when you lift them from the plate. I speak from experience.
Simply LOVE this idea. TY!
BTW...wasn't bored at all... :-)
Yay! Thank you!
I have done this with watercolor crayons but your circle postmark labels are amazing!!!! Thank you for the inspiration ❤
You are so welcome!
Good afternoon Mr Ceri, love these labels!!! Beautiful colors & great techniques... TYFS
Stay Crafty 💜
Good morning Amy
I can't say who I saw do this, but someone used spray glue on the back of stamps and let them dry and they were sticky again. As always I love your videos thank you so much❤
Great tip!
Hi, that looks like a teflon mat/sheet. Thanks for you input.
Could be, thank you Myra
Thanks for the demo, Ceri. I’m off to make some labels!
Have fun!
Great video, as always. I've been meaning to do this since your last video on the idea...maybe this time I will get it done. 😅 Thanks, Ceri. Belinda 🙂
Have fun Belinda
Hello Cardiff😊 as you were putting the background color on, I was thinking, A black design would look nice in there, then you did juSt that! Ha! This was great to learn as I would never have thought to do this. Such pretty mixed color backgrounds. Thank you Ceri.
Fun! I have that ivy stamp. PSX I think is Personal Stamp Exchange.
PSX is correct. They were one of the original companies and many of their stamps are considered collectors items. The company has been gone for many, many years but I still miss them.
Thank you
Some people use glue stick to temporarily stick an older stamp to the acrylic block
Sandy that’s what I normally do but I’d run out of glue stick.
I can't wait to see you use condemned :). Halloween-y maybe?
Maybe
❤
❤️
💜💜💜
Thank you Amy
❤❤❤
Thank you Lucy
I have a repositionable glue stick for those stamps that have lost their glue - i think it's an Elmer's one
Thank you Julie for the tip.
I have bought an “oven liner” which is basically the same material.
You’re right, it is almost the same.
🤩✨💖
❤️
I buy these mats at Home Goods, really large size (16 x20?) and really inexpensive!
Thank you for the tip.
