I absolutely love watching your videos and love hearing you talk about your happenings. Keep telling your story I will always listen. It helps my depression and anxiety as well. God bless you and I'm always praying for you
This idea Mrs E is perfect for Thinking of you projects and gifts. As you know I am disabled and can’t get around much. These types of projects calm my mind thru the current stress. Thank you 🙏
You’ve got me hooked. I love the ideas you come up with. I’ve shopped like crazy since I started watching you. I’m disabled and can’t get out much. This is the first craft that does not stress me out. Thank you so much for opening up a new way to relax. I can make the items you make and they don’t have to be perfect.
May the Lord bless and give divine wisdom to Melina's friend. Thank you for your inspiring instruction, from Barbara (Bobbi June) missionary, singer/songwriter, chef, (all as a volunteer), serving training Latin American missionaries to serve among unreached people groups (Asia, Africa, Middle East). In the autumn of my life of service, it is a joy to discover crafts, sustainable and loving, to care for others; supplies are so expensive here; your ideas help me to make something beautiful with what might be discarded. Thank you!
May God bless you for your service. And I am so blessed that you take the time out of what I know is a very busy schedule to watch me create. Blessings to you and prayers coming to you in the mission field. E
I just made a birthday card for my granddaughter using the Graphic45 Woodland! And I think I may make this lunch bag for my great grandson for his birthday.. I absolutely LOVE Graphic45 card stock. The colors are beautiful, the graphics so pretty. I can't afford a lot of it in the12x12 size so I usually only buy the 8x8 tablets. Only "special" family/friends get it! Lol ...
That statement is so true ~ when our kids hurt is as if whatever it is, was happening to us 😔 it's one of the hardest things for me bc I know I have to have faith and let God, but it takes a lot out of me, to be honest. On another note... I almost can't believe that this project used to be a paper bag. Slowly but surely it turned so beautiful ❤️
I love this. I made one for one of my great grandsons for his 10th birthday in February. Decided I needed to make another for another great grandson whose birthday is on the 6th of next month. So glad I found the video!! Thank you for this demo video.
loved watching you work through this! I worked along with you! I will lift Melina's friend up to her Creator, who loves her so much! In a Bible study yesterday I had a new thought..Does He want us to come home with him more than we do?? He tells us HE goes and prepares a place for us...as we are His beloved. Much thought on this subject this weekend..sister passed from Covid this week and my son's father in law did also, such a Godly and precious man..so much we don't understand, as His ways are higher than ours..Praying for Melina's friend and loved ones.
When you use a paper bag, try burnishing it firmly all over with a bone folder before anything else is done. This should take away any wrinkles and straighten the crooked edges. It really does make it much easier to cover with paper.
Prayers for Melinas friend and family and for all those who are experiencing problems today. Let God in your heart and give the pain over to Him. E these are such sweet little journals. Just the right size to tuck into your purse! Or to give out as a RAK. Stay crafty and healthy! Laura m🎄
OMW!! I have never yelled at a video so much! I LOVE the little journal but you kept covering up the pretty papers!! First the bird then that pretty cover. You worked so hard to make that paper count just to cover it up! Sorry, I do like to watch you, but remember Coco Channel, sometimes less is more. Seriously, bless you for sharing your gifts with us. Hugs!
Prayer added! You made me smile today, as you explained the way you tie bows. My Father taught me to tie the bows on my shoes. He sat me down in front of the toe end of his shoes (facing him) and I studied as he tied his shoes. I learned immediately, he was so proud of me. It was not until later in life that a friend pointed put I tied all my bows backwards. 😂 😀 A special little foible, learned at my Daddy's "boot toe"! Have a super day.
You tie bows perfectly 😊 love your paper bag episode! Will be making one later this afternoon, after my grandsons soccer practice today 🥰 happy grandma 💗
Those pesky bone folders like to grow legs and walk away! Mine does ALL the time! I love your videos!!! So inspiring! Thank you! Prayers for Melina's friend. God is great and hears our prayers!! God bless you!
I am amazed that someone would tell you that you tied you bow wrong. Across the planet we have learned several different ways to tie bows. I tie similar to you , but my husband learned totally different. Beautiful little journal. Praying.
This is such an amazing and inspiring idea! I am into journalling but have yet to foray into this world of ultra-decorative journals and scrapbooks - this might be the perfect place to start. Thank you xx
I have been a bow maker for 20 years and your way is completely acceptable, I have and do tie them different every time depending on the materials you use. and your little bow is so cute as is the whole journal. from one southern woman to another I think you are such a blessing to many. and we are all praying for your daughters friend and yalls whole family and theirs.
Prayers for all involved for strength, wisdom, and comfort. This project is so pretty. I think it would be nice to do a seasonal theme also. Thanks so much for sharing your talents and ideas.
This comes in handy for little gifts if you have no $$ and has a great impact, love it! 🙏's for your daughters friend, God has a plan, but we don't always like it and have faith my friend💜
I’m so glad I found your channel! I don’t know what it is about paper bags that I just love crafting with them. This has got to be one of the best tutorials for a mini journal I have seen. No measuring or awkward folds and it looks fabulous! I have subscribed and am excited about seeing your great ideas!
You tie your bows exactly the same way I do, and my bows have been holding my shoes on over 60 years lol. I watch a LOT of videos and I've seen at least 5 different ways of tying bows. But they all turn out looking like a bow, and that's what's important. You always amaze me how you can take a piece of nothing and turn it into something beautiful. You definitely have a great gift. 😊❤️
Wow, I must try. Thank you for making it look so easy. Takes me back to my scrapbooking days. God Bless. I will be praying for your family friend. Trusting God for the acceptance His will until then we will make our requests known. This is absolutely gorgeous and simple.
Thank you for the step by step instructions. Simple and clear! As you said There are many ways to make this journal, there are different ways to figure out mathematical problems, and different ways of tying bows! As long as you're happy making projects keep up the fun projects!😊
New subscriber and I loved this tutorial! I’m from Alabama and live in Florida now for almost six years. Really miss Alabama, so it was nice to listen to you.
I love it. I like that you used the pamphlet stitch in it. That just makes it so nice. Thanks for sharing all your creative stuff. I love watching your videos and have made several things using your ideas.
This is the cutes journal ever. I bought the same paper and tags you used and made my own little journal. Thank you for your tutorial, sure will make a lovely gift.
I was watching this video thinking that is made earlier until you said something about December but I came back to watch it again so I could make one . Thank you... I had fun making one while you made yours I used a bigger bag I made my using Tim Holtz paper.
It blew my mind that you wanted the bird on the front of the booklet and then you covered it. The bird was so cute. I was just telling my daughter tonight that when she is hurting then I hurt for her. It's just being a mom I guess. Prayers for Melina's friend.
This is adorable! I’m going to use this as a post it note holder. Thank you so much! You are the best at talking us through the process! So many go so fast and I’ve watched 100’s of videos. You are by far my favorite!! 🙏🏻📓📒✂️😊
Prayers for Melina's friend. God is so good and we may not always understand but there are reasons for everything. Praying for healing and peace that only God can give. Your Lunch bag journal turned out beautifully.
I have a few lunch bags I've kept from receiving Meals on Wheels & now I can make these for friends and whoever else. Prayers to Melina's friend and hope she improves. Be safe & TYFS
May the Lord bless you and your family and friend and her family prayers are coming your way thank you for showing us a wonderful little gift idea which you can do so much with for any occasion thanks for showing us your talent
I'm glad to see that brown lunch bags are being used again. I was surprised to see you cover the green bird after you made a point to be sure to get it on that page.
I know, right? I find that the paper crafters and multi-media artists that I watch are always doing that kind of thing! Just what happens when you're crafting on the fly, I guess.
@@SCRAPBOOKINGWITHMECRAFTS That's what makes us creative souls. I get it. If we needed everything written down to a set plan, we'd be engineers not crafters!
A random jewel, I was scrolling along and stumbled across your tutorial. That has got to be the most clever use of a paper bag I have ever seen! I just love it 😍 definitely going to make several to set aside as gifts. Checking out your shop for a few items I’ll need. Happy to click the subscribe button! I’ll be watching for more.
Oh mercy, a bow is a bow!! This is suppose to be fun, it’s not for a museum! I love it!
You never stop amazing me. 3 yr old video and you make a simple lunch bag a work of art
I absolutely love watching your videos and love hearing you talk about your happenings. Keep telling your story I will always listen. It helps my depression and anxiety as well. God bless you and I'm always praying for you

As a newbie your voice and fabulous attitude of “it doesn’t have to be perfect “ soothes my heart!
Thank you so much and welcome to the family.

Finally I found someone who makes a junk journal that isn't complicating. Now I have confidence that I can make one -- Thank-You
When you use a paper bag, try burnishing it firmly all over with a bone folder before anything else is done. This should take away any wrinkles and straighten the crooked edges. It really does make it much easier to cover with paper.
Omg I’ve never seen a deckle edge ruler before, that’s amazing
Very beautiful gorgeous junk journal I ♥️ it u do amazing excellent awesome job I admire that in u very much 😍💐👍💖

I really liked this idea. I won’t look at lunch bags any other way after this video. Thank you.
Finally I meet someone who ties a bow like me. I have a stack of paper bags that are getting used today thanks to your inspiration.
I have watched this tutorial several times and, I love it more each time! Great video!

I'm glad she demonstrated this technique. This was my first crafting experience about 15 years ago. I still save bags!!!
Me too!
Nice idea❤️ thank you Ms. E❤️
Love this mini journal book especially the paper. Beautiful work.
Absolutely adorable. Love watching you create!! Although I was yelling don’t put the sticker over the the bird 😞.
Yeah...seemed like the bird was an awesome focal point before that
Yeah, here I am in 2024 wondering why the bird got covered up. 🤷🏻♀️
This is your prettiest journal, IMHO. Love the paper and ephemera choices. Well done!
