    I cannot get enough of how organic your videos are! By organic I mean that you don't make things and then recreate them for a video, you actually give us a part of you by letting us watch you do things for the first time! I absolutely LOVE that! Thank you thank you thank you!!!

      Eugenia Redmond aww thank you so so much for your comment. ♡♡♡♡♡♡
      I am glad you feel that way ! xx

    Great and easy book. For the next cover, if you are using thick good quality paper, wet the areas where you will crease it with water, then crease, this will reduce the cracking of the paper.

      CraftySamarita what a fabulous tip. Thank you so much ♡

    I watched this video a really long time ago - probably soon after you posted it -- then in either Oct or Nov 2017, in my local thrift store I came upon two huge bags of really nice ivory-colored envelopes -- marked down to 99 cents each -- I think they were wedding invitation envelopes that didn't sell, so they donated them -- because they are new and in perfect condition -- but I'd been looking all of that time -- finally ! our area has thawed out from the frigid winter we had, and I got out my envelopes to watch your video -- you should be proud of your cover -- it's beautiful. I think I'm going to decoupage mine and maybe crochet a doily or something for the cover -- mine is not as large as yours -- I can't wait to use it. When my son was six, my friend gave me two really nice, large journals for Christmas, because I journaled a lot, and I made one for my son -- I printed pictures at home and put little notes he wrote -- sadly, the towers from 9-11 were there, but also his joy at seeing sharks right up against the window at the Baltimore Acquarium -- our house burned down in 2005, but by God's grace, his journal was spared, and I treasure it -- I'm 61 now and he is 27 and grown. Smush your little girl down and don't let her grow up -- : ) -- it comes so much faster than you can imagine - I love your channel -- you encouraged me to do cosmos paintings, which I love -- I use acrylics; I'm lousy with water colors, but the pictures are all over our house -- I live in the US. My country is so divided, I firmly believe it is through the arts that we can forget our differences, if only for a moment, and remember the beauty of life. I appreciate your time and effort to post these videos. I just started my own channel -- 3rscrafting JTB -- the Rs are reduce, reuse, recycle -- and this project does all of that -- be well, God bless -- Patricia

    It is usually by trial and error that you end up with something even more perfect than you thought!!!!

  • @PMJ4EVERR
    @PMJ4EVERR 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    You are brilliant. Who would have known to fold envelopes that way. I am amazed.

  • @QueenVic67
    @QueenVic67 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Again just like the little books from one piece of paper, you have refreshed my memory on how to make this too, as I had forgotten about them, so thank you so much Marta!! I actually preferred you doing the cover, 'off the cuff' unrehearsed, because I enjoyed watching your thought process, this is how I do some of my videos, so people can see that we are all the same and even experts/designers/teachers have the same thought processes as someone only doing this for the first time! Thank you I could watch you all day, I love your accent & sweet voice! Hugs from England, Vick xxx

    I was going through random videos and found this. I love crafting but my real passion is scrapbooking and journaling. As soon as I starting watching the video, I grabbed some envelopes and made a journal along with you. Thank you so much for posting this and your journal is beautiful!

    OH MY GOODNESS YOU DID IT AGAIN MARTA,,, :)) I loved the way this was done and so easy. My daughter is getting married June 24, 2017 and I was looking to my her a journal for her bridal shower and wedding. So here I go making to 2 different ones for herself and my wonderful son-in-law. Thanks again for sharing all your wonderful ideas.

  • @pandamants
    @pandamants 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is such a creative idea! And I wouldn't worry about the rough edges where you folded the scrapbook paper over the cover. It just adds to the vintage/distressed look that the paper already has!

    • @joeyhiraldo4626
      @joeyhiraldo4626 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is 2 years later but maybe someone will read it = I think Marta should have used her bone folder (scoring tool) over the folded over edges and it would have smoothed them out. Just an idea.

  • @rebeccagoldthorpe6606
    @rebeccagoldthorpe6606 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    WOW! What a terrific idea. Such an easy to follow demonstration too, Marta. I am thoroughly enjoying your videos.

  • @doloresjohnson9571
    @doloresjohnson9571 2 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @samiewessinger6190
    @samiewessinger6190 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I LOVED it!! I actually for the first time ever, paused the video and grabbed my box of envelopes and dumped my kids cereal in a bag and made one while I followed you!!! It turned out so so cute too! Love it, love it, love it!!!

  • @SonshineLady7
    @SonshineLady7 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Brilliant using envelopes. For journals I'm going to use I don't want a lot of stuff already added to it; I'm a writing journaler who enjoys writing whatever is in my mind for the day and perhaps adding personal photos, clippings, etc. The envelopes provide plenty of room for both!!

  • @amypool7717
    @amypool7717 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love it!! I love how pleased you are as well! That's exactly how I would feel. You make it look so easy. The best part is how perfectly imperfect you assembled it. Sometimes it's the imperfections or mistakes that make a project more lovable. I struggle with being a perfectionist and that's where crafting helps me learn to just create and enjoy the process. I can't wait to try this!!

  • @karenlugg2404

I'm no longer going to try to make everything 'perfect' - love her style and that she tried out her first cover. I've never made a journal but have got as far as thinking about making a cover. Brilliant.

    • @riteasrain
      @riteasrain 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I use a brayer, especially around the inside cover edges - it really helps flatten it all even more :)

    @navyboymommygramma 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    2nd time watching this, still loving it. Haha. The whole idea of making a journal from envelopes is so brilliant, it really is. It opens up so many possibilities, recycled envelopes, dollar store , handmade, all white, different colors, different papers, recycled papers AND handmade, etc. And the you get to decorate... or not. You could make up a bunch real fast, plain white would be best, and have class rooms decorate them and hand them out at senior centers or have the kiddos mail them off to elderly family members. So many fun things to do in this life how can anyone be bored? Love and hugs for all on this beautiful day ☺

    It is beautiful and encourages me to try. I love the way you talk through even the "mistakes" which turn out so nicely in the end anyway !Doing it "for the first time" on video encourages us who have wanted to do this but not worked up the courage to try for fear of ruining the project. Thank you!

    I made myself 5 ...10 page, (20) both sides..lovely, journals with craft paper envelopes 💗💗💗 they are beautiful. The thickness of craft paper is gorgeous and strong , very unique envelope journals. I picked up a pack of 50 from Michaels approximately 5 dollars ,a few months ago! and thought there was blank cards to match. It was when I was looking for envelopes for this project that I discovered that it was only envelopes. A happy accident 😃🤗, I need to get another box lol I'm just so happy with the unique color & quality. I made 5 out of that box and can use one for art journaling and they are the only diy tutorial I have found making them how you created these types of journals😉many ideas but none created like your idea! thank you! I love this new direction your exploring into, keep up the imagination, uniqueness and cost friendly ideas. My creative mind has been awoken to more ideas each day, all thanks to you Marta💞 sending you creative hugs and huge thank you!

    @elenalaskari4739 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dear sweet Martha, I love your first journal, the cover is so beautiful & the idea of using envelopes for the pages is really great! You don't really have to have a big paper to cover all the cover, you can do it with two pieces (one for the front & one for the back cover) and use a third for the spine, just a bit wider from the spine to cover a little bit the front & back pieces. The problem with the broken edges of the paper at the points where it folds has happened to me too. In order to hide it and protect the paper, I have put a layer of gel medium on it. Another idea is to distress all the edges and color it with your favorite distress color. Thank you for your lovely & inspiring videos! 💖💖💖💖💖

  • @karenperkins6744
    @karenperkins6744 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you so much for this fabulous tutorial! I adore the fact that you leave in all your "mistakes" which are not really, but trial and error! You make it so much more personal ... a one to one discussion almost! I also adore your accent, which I have been trying to guess where you are from, but every now and then, there seems to be a trace of Irish accent .... lol! I have a similar thing with me, people keep trying to guess where I am from, as I seem to have so many different accents going on from all the places I have lived! I too, could listen to you all day, I love how you put things across! Thank you so much! xx
