Wonderful project; I am inspired and I have lots of junky envelopes. You take care of yourself and don't worry about making a bunch of videos (not that I won't miss you). We will all be here when you get back, anxiously awaiting your stories. Have fun and get well! hugs..
Enjoyed your video was crafting along with you, sorry about your back I will keep you in my prayers that it gets better. Thanks for sharing & take care!
I enjoyed Christinas video and then watched them all. I fell at home getting up to run to the bathroom and tripped and twisted my back and hit my head and landed on my right side. So I have time to watch all of these videos. Hoping to be able to work on my own project tomorrow or the next day. . Takes a while for your back to heal but I have fallen enough so pretty much know what I need to do. Hope you get well real soon but listen to your doctor.🥰
Lots of scrap usage! Always fun with the mixing and matching. That is really shaping up into quite the envelope journal. I am definitely doing one. I know backs take a long time to heal because so many of our movements use the back muscles...listen to your body as to what you should or shouldn’t do. I’m glad you guys will be getting some vacation time. We’ll be here when you get back.❤️
Dear Bodgy Crafter, don’t you dare worry about extra videos for while you’re away if your back is not up to it, we will survive. Pushing yourself will only make it worse. Have a great holiday. We were to go bush for a few days but restrictions have tightened to no travel so there goes our break. If I ever get my hands on those inconsiderate people who didn’t isolate when they should have I’ll , I’ll, I’ll, I don’t know what I’ll do but it won’t be nice and I’m usually a very nice person.😖 Take care.💕💕💕💕
Deborah Smith All is well I am here on holiday and my back is a bit sore but getting better. I did manage to get my videos done so I left feeling happy. I hope you are well! I’m sorry to hear you weren’t able to go on your break hopefully things will sort themselves out soon. Thank you so much
Had to come back to finish watching today. Love how it's coming along! Really fun project. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers that your back is in good shape for your holiday.
Your garden papers are gorgeous and this little journal is coming along so beautifully! Sorry you are hurting and I hope all heals well soon. TFS the inspiration, Rachel!
I love how your project is coming along. The garden papers are so beautiful. Hoping your back feels better and that you can enjoy your holiday. Thank you for sharing
You sure are describing me today ! First the description nof you melting and hair flying around after an hour in mask ! I have trachycardia and wearing mask triggers it , when pulse is so fast if course your also going to sweat. Then talking about getting behind and how your room is such a mess because of your back . Thats me all day almost everyday due to my very active fibromyalgia. I glad to hear that your pain will be temporary! I want you to know how greatful i am for your company through your videos on the days when i am bedridden . Wish miss lulu would join you more often !
Your visit to physio seems productive hopefully now you have some knowledge of your injury it helps for recovery. And your stories of your visit was funny you make my day with your chats of every day. Love the envelope journal we need to use more than we waste so these are brilliant.x
Thanks so much for the examples of how to solve the little problems that one can encounter when covering the envelopes. I have tried to make the envelope journals before and I got discouraged with them looking messy. Thanks for the demonstration. I cannot wait to watch the rest of the process. I will pray for God tp touch your body and take away the pain.
Rachel, I love this. I have been saving all my envelopes and now I can make the same thing. Hope your back feels better with each new day. And have a lovely holiday! TFS! ❤️
I noticed more and more ads on people who typically don't have them in the middle of their videos, however, this one seems to be fixed as there were none for me as I watched it- so whatever you did worked!!
Wonderful Roxy, I’m really loving this coming together. At first I couldn’t get it, but now I see what you’re doing and I think I’m getting hooked! Thankyou again, hope your back is better soon. Take care and stay safe xx
so sorry to hear that you injured yourself a bit badly and that you are in pain. i wish you all the best against the pain and speedy recovery. lucky it does not interfere with you making beautiful work.
Haha. I had a flashback to my teenage years. I think we all had that moment when we are frustrated with our clothes choices and feeling like we have nothing to wear. No choices to pick from. I know this has absolutely nothing to do with your video, however when your trying to find a pc and not happy with your choices even though you have 200 options it just reminded me. Love how this is coming together. Hopefully this puppy we have taken in and has consumed 34 hrs of my everyday will get through her medical things and I’ll be able to craft again! Lol. Love it and you. So cute
Dear Rachel, so sorry your are in so much pain. Please take good care and be kind to yourself. Sending soothing and healing energy to you. Don't worry about making extra videos. Rest and heal so you can enjoy your holiday. We can go back and watch videos from your 100 day project while we are missing you. Hugs.
I am convinced that I need to make one of these too. The journal is coming along beautifully! Keeping you in my thought and hoping your back heals quickly.
Loving this flippy journal. I love the English garden papers. I bought them and have used them in two journals I have made. So many ads popping up, very annoying and they are so loud too. Continue with your physio as the massage they do is very helpful. The exercises help too. Take care Rachel. 💞🇨🇦💕
Karen billinger I was so disappointed to hear I had all those ads in my video. I am pleased that I have been able to resolve the problem. Thank you so much
Love this project!! It's giving me some ideas to use up my stockpile of envelopes!! Lol. feel your pain...have had 3 back surgeries and still am in pain daily. Looking at another surgery. It just seems to suck the energy right out of you. Hugs!!
Goodness Rachel! I’m sorry about your back. I hope your trip isn’t ruined because of it. Between you and Gayle being out of commission we are all going to be lost. I hope you feel better quickly. 🤗
Martha Manigross Shabby Craft Studio all is well my back is improving and not stopping me doing things anymore. I hope you are well! Thank you so much 😊
Hi Rachel, your envelope journal is fascinating, I just love watching you work. Thank you so much. The adds disappeared in the middle by the way. Have a good break and keep moving but also chill! Xxxx
I hope so too. It should I've been given some exercises for it. We'll just have to sit more often for a coffee or glass of wine (depending on the time of day)!!! Thank you so much!
I'm loving your inspiration and heaven knows I have an abundance on envelope mailers ! Lol ! May next project has been decided. Thank you for the inspiration. I hope your back feels better so you can enjoy your holiday away !!
So sorry about your back. I do hope you heal soon.💖 It's good you are still creating because it does take your mind off your pain. I totally understand how embarrassing the messy hair and mascara running at physio can be. I had to have some nerve flossing done in my neck. Itwas painful so my eyes watered. I had to get a wheel chair ride through the hospital to the shuttle after physio so it wasn't until I got home that I saw my panda eyes and sticky up hair. I did have to laugh. No wonder people were staring at me!
Hoping you feel better before your vacation. Take car of yourself so you can enjoy it. Don’t worry about making extra videos for when you are gone if it causes you too much pain. We’ll miss you but we all understand. Your health is more important.
Rachel. Forgive for suggesting ice. , I thought it was your muscles. Glad you went to the chiropractor! I will try harder to stay in my lane, and mind my business...I'm going to be 68 this Sunday, ya would think I'd have learned to keep my advice to myself...so embarrassed 😳. Love you and wishing you full healing soon! So sorry. Loving this video series ! As always!
No you shouldn't be embarassed. So I asked the physio yesterday and he explained it better to me. He said the first 2 days you can put some ice for no longer than 15 minutes at a time but also use heat. I put the ice on for a long time with no heat so I think it caused a contraction and so I had more pain. There are some type of injuries that require only ice and others a mix etc. I received a lot of advice not just from you but from family, friends and so on it was all pretty similar. All advice is well wishing!!! You must not apologise you didn't do anything wrong!!! It was kind of you to try to help. Thank you so much!
I received my Jessie Chorley Friendship Quilt kit today. Also three additional squares, I added to my order. I am so excited to get started. I can work on it while caring for my granddaughters. Journaling always has to be done on the weekends or at night. Share your expertise with us so I don’t make to much of a mess out of my first ever quilt.
Thanks for the update. Rachel, please listen to me -- I don't know how things doctorwise work there. Here, our PCP, personal care physician, begins the process and then refers to specialists -- go as quickly as possible and get an x-ray of your back, or an mri, whatever -- if you've ruptured that disk (what's called a herniated disc), what's going to happen is, the two bony vertebrae are pushing the "cushioning" tissue between them outward -- you even may have a hairline fracture -- the specialist you need to see is an orthopaedic surgeon, or a neurosurgeon -- which does not mean you have to have surgery, but there is no way the pt can give an accurate diagnosis without seeing what's going on inside your spine -- it doesn't mean the pt is wrong; it just means your physician needs to be able to see what's going on -- which then will affect the treatment you receive. I was a court reporter for 25 years. I took the testimony of thousands of people with back pain and the doctors who treated them; and now my spine collapsed and all of the cushion between the vertebrae is gone. I have bone on top of bone -- the treatment therapy is always a combination of ice and heat -- always -- I looked it up on the mayo clinic website, and this is what they say: What is the best treatment for a ruptured disc? Physical therapy, exercise and gentle stretching to help relieve pressure on the nerve root. Ice and heat therapy for pain relief. Manipulation (such as chiropractic manipulation) Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, naproxen or COX-2 inhibitors for pain relief. -- Unless.... there is another underlying cause. Do you have any pain that runs down the back of your right leg? That is sciatica, and there's a medication for that called gabapentin -- the little gate the spinal nerves run through is called the "gaba" -- it basically blocks pain signals from that area to your brain -- please discuss it with stefano and do your own research -- and if you are having lower back pain around your belt line, that topical gel is instant relief -- again, I'm not saying bad things about the pt, but the question is -- why do you have inflammation in that area, what caused it in the first place -- it can be caused by an extra hard sneeze (really) If this were Lulu, would you insist they send her for an x-ray to rule out physical damage to her spine? Yes, you would. The normal course here is -- get an x-ray (also, sorry, but you might need to have a bone scan -- 50 might be the new 40, but your bones are still 50 -- ugh !!) And then the radiologist will read the x-ray and send the report to your doctor, and depending on what the report says, you'll be referred to a specialist who will then probably order an mri -- sorry; it's not my business, but if you get the wrong treatment from the start, it could lead down a very bad road -- another thing when they sent me for pt -- she wanted me to sleep on my side (which I do anyway) with a pillow between my knees -- it relieves pressure on the affected area and gives you time to heal -- best regards, Patricia
This is turning out to be such a fun project. For your clean up, why not entice (aka bribe) Lulu to help out -- she can do the lifting and bending, while you direct. Hope you feel better soon.
You can't go a whole week without posting a video - no one will remember who you are! Stop being such a goose, take care of yourself and go enjoy your holiday with your family. We will all be here when you get back waiting to hear your stories and I seriously doubt anyone will have died from withdrawal. Plus, I just know you will bring goodies back for us!
Not so many ads here on my viewing of your video...must be older ones...take care and keep sharing with us...ads are like mosquitos, I just swat them away🦟🦟🦟hugs from Minnesota ❤️
I’m wearing my winter woolies here in U.K.! I have a problem back. It will get better, just keep moving. I just walked my dog one street further at a time. I still have pain but it’s part of the general getting old background unfortunately!
Apparently You tube has decided to place ads everywhere. I only set them for the beginning but now I'm being told they are in the middle which I detest. i am trying to figure out how to fix it. Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you Rachel!! Such a love to do that for us!! My envelope journal is coming right along. Tomorrow I'll be able to decorate with you.... Or when you get back. Enjoy your time off! Also, ignore the grippy Gurty!! Some people need something to fuss about!!
Yes. I was really close to paying the NO advertising fee. And because I listen to you with ear buds the ads are MUCH louder than your video Yikes! Love you. Hope your back is better before your holiday. ❤️💚
I love your videos and wish you very well. However, the same and non-targeted ads every 1 - 2 minutes is absolute insanity. TH-cam management has lost its collective mind. I have already gone from following an average of 130 channels to less than fifty...with no end in sight until I stop YT altogether at this rate. And I know the team keeps changing the rules to torture its content creators as well. Shame on them, on so many levels.

TH-cam has found you like they found Gayle....she had 18 commercials in her video the other day (not her fault) and you have 13 or 14 in this video. Stupid YT 🤨
Karen Kijinski it’s YT. They are in control. They stick the ads wherever they want. It really cuts the flow of watching. I know the makers need the income and I don’t mind 2/3 ads but anything near 10 is hard to handle. Anything over 10 in an hour video is unnecessary.

@@karenkijinski6271 You tube decided to put ads everywhere. I have been able to remove all mid roll ads from all of my videos. I was very unhappy to hear they had done this. I apologise if it was annoying as I dislike too many ads in the middle of videos as well.
Roxy Creations I know it’s not your doing. I also wasn’t complaining o you, just YT in general. Between them and Etsy it is frustrating to be a maker. Loved what you did with the envelopes. Sure hope you find some relief for your back. 🤗💕
Funny thing.. when I opened this vid on my phone, there were a lot of ads. I don't mind a few if Rachel gets money for them, I just couldn't take 13 or 14, But...I opened the video on my laptop and there was only one ad in the beginning.. wonder why?

I will check it out. I had no idea they were doing this. Apparently You tube has decided to place ads everywhere. I only set them for the beginning but now I'm being told they are in the middle which I detest. i am trying to figure out how to fix it. Thanks for letting me know.
@@roxycreations679 Hate to say this but I gave up watching the video after the 8th ad and I was around halfway through the video. Normally I just keep watching and click through the ads but the volume of the ads were twice as loud as your video and it was very annoying
@@lunaspiritbeth I'm sorry but I had no idea. I've only every asked for ads at the beginning not in the middle. I have removed the option from my last 30 videos but can not find where to do it for multiple videos. Did Amy explain that? Could you tell which was her video?
@@lunaspiritbeth I figured out how to take them out of all my videos. It's all very distressing that they just decide for us! Anyway thank you for letting me know.
No never seen you this all over the place hence the question of How many pain pills have you taken today? You are too funny today. Not inappropriate just funny
Lol you were fine How did you like my little song?. May the bird of paradise fly up your nose. May an elephant caress you with his toes. Etc etc. lol. Can you believe that was a song. Yep it was.
How many pain pills did you take today. Lol Don’t you worry about us and videos. We will survive although just barely!! You rest up for your trip. Oh and send us a postcard. 😂 or not
This is so relaxing to watch thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you so much 😊
Wonderful project; I am inspired and I have lots of junky envelopes. You take care of yourself and don't worry about making a bunch of videos (not that I won't miss you). We will all be here when you get back, anxiously awaiting your stories. Have fun and get well! hugs..
Thank you so much!
This is fun to watch you build up your creation....hang in there with the back exercise...Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
Thank you so much!

I really liked how you just flew by the seat of your pants and made this. Neat
Thank you so much!
Rachel, take care of yourself and enjoy your vacation!! Don’t worry about making videos in advance. We can wait!!!🥰🥰😍.
Thank you so much!
Who knew one could make junk mail look so beautiful! It was fun watching you create. Thank you!
Dodi C Thank you so much
I started collecting my junk mail, I gave some good envelopes, and excited to give this a try! Thank you! It’s looking fantastic!
Thank you so much!

I took the testimony of thousands of people with back pain and the doctors who treated them; and now my spine collapsed and all of the cushion between the vertebrae is gone. I have bone on top of bone -- the treatment therapy is always a combination of ice and heat -- always -- I looked it up on the mayo clinic website, and this is what they say: What is the best treatment for a ruptured disc?
Physical therapy, exercise and gentle stretching to help relieve pressure on the nerve root. Ice and heat therapy for pain relief. Manipulation (such as chiropractic manipulation) Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, naproxen or COX-2 inhibitors for pain relief. -- Unless.... there is another underlying cause. Do you have any pain that runs down the back of your right leg? That is sciatica, and there's a medication for that called gabapentin -- the little gate the spinal nerves run through is called the "gaba" -- it basically blocks pain signals from that area to your brain -- please discuss it with stefano and do your own research -- and if you are having lower back pain around your belt line, that topical gel is instant relief -- again, I'm not saying bad things about the pt, but the question is -- why do you have inflammation in that area, what caused it in the first place -- it can be caused by an extra hard sneeze (really) If this were Lulu, would you insist they send her for an x-ray to rule out physical damage to her spine? Yes, you would. The normal course here is -- get an x-ray (also, sorry, but you might need to have a bone scan -- 50 might be the new 40, but your bones are still 50 -- ugh !!) And then the radiologist will read the x-ray and send the report to your doctor, and depending on what the report says, you'll be referred to a specialist who will then probably order an mri -- sorry; it's not my business, but if you get the wrong treatment from the start, it could lead down a very bad road -- another thing when they sent me for pt -- she wanted me to sleep on my side (which I do anyway) with a pillow between my knees -- it relieves pressure on the affected area and gives you time to heal -- best regards, Patricia
I love love that project Rachel take care of yourself hope you’re going to be better soon have good holidays with your family xx
Thank you so much!
Love your style, can't seem to get that grungy yet but I'm going to try this protect!
Thank you so much!
Take care and rest on your holiday.
Thank you so much!
This is turning out to be such a fun project. For your clean up, why not entice (aka bribe) Lulu to help out -- she can do the lifting and bending, while you direct. Hope you feel better soon.
Hahaha, she will definitely be helping, lol! Thank you so much!
Ok! I need to catch up now with you!
🌈👍
New subbie here from Gayle's channel. This is a very interesting project 🙂
Thank you so much!
Good to hear you are getting good treatment! Love this series! Do you use a specific kind of glue stick or just a regular craft glue?
tripletgirl2 I like to use my Giotto glue stick the most. It seems to stick most things down very well. Thank you so much
I still love that brown stripped paper. I’ve been looking for something like it. Nothing has turned up yet.
I love that too!
You can't go a whole week without posting a video - no one will remember who you are! Stop being such a goose, take care of yourself and go enjoy your holiday with your family. We will all be here when you get back waiting to hear your stories and I seriously doubt anyone will have died from withdrawal. Plus, I just know you will bring goodies back for us!
Carol Sowell thank you so much 😊
Did you use regular pva school glue in your sugar bell squeeze bottle or tacky glue or something else? Thank you
I did put PVA in it.
@@roxycreations679 thanks
Love the super grungy tea dying combined with the kits. Have you ever left the security envelope pattern showing?
I did in one of them. Thank you so much!
@@roxycreations679 yes, I noticed that later!
I was hoping to see you and up you popped. Glad you have been able to get medical attention and medication to feel better. Take care.
Thank you so much!
Not so many ads here on my viewing of your video...must be older ones...take care and keep sharing with us...ads are like mosquitos, I just swat them away🦟🦟🦟hugs from Minnesota ❤️
I managed to remove them all! Thank you so much!
I’m wearing my winter woolies here in U.K.! I have a problem back. It will get better, just keep moving. I just walked my dog one street further at a time. I still have pain but it’s part of the general getting old background unfortunately!
Winter woolies, it must be cold there!!
Rachel, there were 13 ads in your video today. Crafty Cat was telling us that there is a way to go in and turn them off. Just to let you know.
Apparently You tube has decided to place ads everywhere. I only set them for the beginning but now I'm being told they are in the middle which I detest. i am trying to figure out how to fix it. Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you Rachel!! Such a love to do that for us!!
My envelope journal is coming right along. Tomorrow I'll be able to decorate with you.... Or when you get back. Enjoy your time off! Also, ignore the grippy Gurty!! Some people need something to fuss about!!
Peggy Kelliher no way...not interrupted once🌻
Yes. I was really close to paying the NO advertising fee. And because I listen to you with ear buds the ads are MUCH louder than your video Yikes! Love you. Hope your back is better before your holiday. ❤️💚
@@jeannieferdinande5805 Rachel went in and fixed the problem. Your late to the party.
Did you say, “Im a boggie crafter today”? What does boggie mean?
Hahaha i did. It means I'm not doing things very well!
How was your appointment?
It was very good and I am slowly improving!
I love your videos and wish you very well. However, the same and non-targeted ads every 1 - 2 minutes is absolute insanity. TH-cam management has lost its collective mind. I have already gone from following an average of 130 channels to less than fifty...with no end in sight until I stop YT altogether at this rate. And I know the team keeps changing the rules to torture its content creators as well. Shame on them, on so many levels.

😁isn’t it sooo fun being a woman!? Makeup and humidity...
Oh dear such a mess!
TH-cam has found you like they found Gayle....she had 18 commercials in her video the other day (not her fault) and you have 13 or 14 in this video. Stupid YT 🤨
I thought I was the only one who noticed the ads. I counted 11. What's with that?
Karen Kijinski it’s YT. They are in control. They stick the ads wherever they want. It really cuts the flow of watching. I know the makers need the income and I don’t mind 2/3 ads but anything near 10 is hard to handle. Anything over 10 in an hour video is unnecessary.

@@karenkijinski6271 You tube decided to put ads everywhere. I have been able to remove all mid roll ads from all of my videos. I was very unhappy to hear they had done this. I apologise if it was annoying as I dislike too many ads in the middle of videos as well.
Roxy Creations I know it’s not your doing. I also wasn’t complaining o you, just YT in general. Between them and Etsy it is frustrating to be a maker. Loved what you did with the envelopes. Sure hope you find some relief for your back. 🤗💕
Funny thing.. when I opened this vid on my phone, there were a lot of ads. I don't mind a few if Rachel gets money for them, I just couldn't take 13 or 14, But...I opened the video on my laptop and there was only one ad in the beginning.. wonder why?

I have managed to remove all mid roll ads from all videos. I am so annoyed that You tube took it upon themselves to decide to do that.
@@roxycreations679 You're the best Rachel , thanks for doing that for us xo
TH-cam is placing an insane amount of ads on your videos.
It's sad what YT is doing to the creators.
Check out Crafty Cats latest video re: the ads
I will check it out. I had no idea they were doing this. Apparently You tube has decided to place ads everywhere. I only set them for the beginning but now I'm being told they are in the middle which I detest. i am trying to figure out how to fix it. Thanks for letting me know.
Could you tell me which video, I can't seem to find it?
@@roxycreations679 Hate to say this but I gave up watching the video after the 8th ad and I was around halfway through the video. Normally I just keep watching and click through the ads but the volume of the ads were twice as loud as your video and it was very annoying
@@lunaspiritbeth I'm sorry but I had no idea. I've only every asked for ads at the beginning not in the middle. I have removed the option from my last 30 videos but can not find where to do it for multiple videos. Did Amy explain that? Could you tell which was her video?
@@lunaspiritbeth I figured out how to take them out of all my videos. It's all very distressing that they just decide for us! Anyway thank you for letting me know.
No never seen you this all over the place hence the question of How many pain pills have you taken today? You are too funny today. Not inappropriate just funny
When I did the video I had 1 but i did feel a bit whacky!
Lol you were fine How did you like my little song?. May the bird of paradise fly up your nose. May an elephant caress you with his toes. Etc etc. lol. Can you believe that was a song. Yep it was.
@@sherryrector2275That song is hilarious!
How many pain pills did you take today. Lol
Don’t you worry about us and videos. We will survive although just barely!! You rest up for your trip. Oh and send us a postcard. 😂 or not
I've done some videos!
