Thanks, gf for the very nice comment. I am enjoying the entire process and these papers are wonderful to work with. Do you use and make journals? I always like to know who does what. Isn't that gold a fun enhancer? I could play with that all day long. TFW and I'll see you soon. xoxo
Hi, Barbie! What a wonderful video! Love everything you did for Mara's journal. The wedding dress ruffle is beautiful and I like the pocket one, too. The tag is absolutely gorgeous - love all of the gold touches you added, too. Have a great rest of your week, gf! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much, Joy. I'm so happy you enjoyed all I created. I was definitely all over the place in this video and that's how I truly craft, I'm all over the place, that's why my desk looks like a bomb went off in my room when I'm done. TFW and for being so supportive. Hugs and love xoxo ❤💖❤
Thanks so much, Carol. This has been a real treat and I do love making all the ephemera. I've found some features in my Seashore journal that I'd love to add in this book...........because you are just the best and have the best ideas. Hugs and love xoxo
Wow, Barbie, there is a lot going on in this video. I just love the papers you've put together. The colors are so soothing. I'm doing some little Christmas projects and I'm making myself use the paper I already had. Boo. That gold reminds me of a bezel, but a bezel of delicious, dripping gold frosting! I had to laugh when you got side-tracked......and made some ruffles! Sounds just like how I operate. That wedding dress ruffle is to die for! How sentimental this journal is going to be for you DIL, with the vintage postcards and now her wedding dress! And, finally, when you folded up that pocket....my eyeballs popped! It was so simple. I appreciate all your tips and tricks you share. Oh, and the ink 'recipe' for calming down the red. Doing that for sure! xoxo
Thanks, Lisa ....... I'm assuming you make journals too? Yes, I'm always getting side-tracked. That's why I misplace so much stuff in my real life, i.e. glasses, phone, SS card, my measuring cup ..... I guess you call that a scatter brain! 🤣🤣🤣 but yet, I'm so totally organized ....... 🥴go figure. I could play with that gold all day long, it's the best, and now I'm into circles. Give that pocket a try, it's sooooo simple. TFW and much love heading your way today. xoxo
Oh my, my cheeks are hurting from smiling at all the wonderful things you've done today (where do I start). Those buttons brought back childhood memories, everyone's Mum had a button box when I was a girl and that's where my own love of them came from. Sadly she is no longer with us but I do have her sewing box. Loved the gold on the edges of all the ephemera. Was blown away by the cut-up wedding dress made into ruffles and the fabulous paper clip, not to mention that delightful pocket you made. Not so good to hear that you have a troubling eye, hope you manage to get that sorted quickly. I don't do a lot of stamping, but yours are fabulous, have you thought of using markers on them. I have one with holly and berries and I use a green one on the edges of the leaves and a red one on the edges of the berries and they work out just fine and it doesn't spoil the stamps either. I know you are busy with hubby and appointments at the moment so sending much love and positive vibes to help you through this difficult time. Tfs xo
@elizabethnaisbitt1795 Thank you very much, Elizabeth ❤️ I am so happy you enjoyed this video, and your comment is wonderful. It was all fun to work with, and yes, fun memories for you and me. My eyes are much better. I stopped the eye drops and the eye doc did confirm they were the culprit of my bloodshot eyes. Thank you again for all your support. Have a wonderful week, my friend, and many blessings. 🎄❄️❤️
Thank you very much and I appreciate your kind comment! I love that gold paint and I now feel it's a must whenever I'm creating anything Christmas! Your support is appreciated. Have a wonderful week and the best holiday season ever! ❤️
Excellent, Barbie. I especially love the hanky ticket ruffle. I have an old lace hanky that I could do that with. I am loving watching this journal progress. 😊😊😊
Thank you, JOy 💝 I appreciate your kind words and yes, use that hankie you have. After I make the ruffle I noticed it took on a round flair and wanted to use it in an upper corner; maybe next time. I love tickets as well and I'm always trying to create new ways to use them ........ after awhile, the same 'ole, same 'ole becomes the same 'ole, same 'ole !! xo Hugs and love to you on this day, my sweet friend. xo 💖💖💖
Hi Barb. I wish I had better news. I came into the ER last night. I have acute pancreatitis. No food or water for at least two days. Really a drag. Send a little prayer my way. God bless
Oh, Julia ........ I am so sorry. I'll be sure to start prayers. You hang in there, gf and keep me posted. Hugs and sending all kinds of love. xoxo 💕❤️💕🙏🙏🙏🙏
Hey Barbie, watched your last 2 videos. This book is coming along so pretty. Is this a xmas gift for your daughter in law? I agree it is too soon for xmas music. People around here have there trees up and lit and house decorated. Ugh really! Hugs my friend
Hey Shay, TFW and leaving an awesome comment. This book is for my DIL. I'm sure she will love it. I'm having more fun with it and I'm so happy you are interested in watching these videos. Hug and love, xoxo ...... your very special and I appreciate your support.

Thanks, Amy ....... I love using that gold. It adds so much. Thanks for watching and stopping by to say 'hi' 💓💛💓 xo

I love that folded pocket! The hanky ribbon with the tickets turned out stunning.
Thank you, Julie! I wasn't sure about the hankie ruffle and the tickets, a new idea! I'm so happy you enjoyed this video! Happy Sunday Funday! 💖✨💖
