I had to laugh when you mentioned the “collecting phase”! 😂 i have been a crafter most of my life (i’m almost 70). the last years have been tough with physical problems and great difficulty with depression. but i’ve been finding some joy again. about 6 months ago i began my collecting phase with materials for making gnomes because i find them so delightful. but the holidays have passed and i’ve needed something else to look forward to. junk journals and paper crafting has taken that place. the first junk color journal i actually made was over 50 years ago when a high-school art teacher assigned us the task of making a scrapbook containing all of the colors of the rainbow and beyond using whatever mediums we wanted to use. i went to town! i loved it! like you, in this tutorial, i utilized paint chips as one of the forms of color in my scrapbook. . . along with many other things as well. i ran across your wonderful tutorials about 6 weeks ago and am absolutely enthralled with your vast creativity and many wonderful ideas for crafting. i also love that you use recycled items. i am on a low fixed income and can’t afford the high priced gadgets that so many other crafters use. i am now currently in the supplies gathering process and you have given me so many ideas to use things i already have or can easily find without spending lots of money. i am finding a sense of joy and excitement again partly because of your positive experimental techniques and encouragement! i thank you so muchly! yup, i spelled my made up word correctly! 😅😃🤭❤️
I follow a lot of junk journal TH-camrs and I have to say you are the absolute best at doing tutorials! You have samples prepared ahead of time, you are detailed in your directions, but don’t bore us with watching you glue and cut (things we already know how to do). Thank you for all of your amazing videos!
Agreed 💯 she is my inspiration I had watched her first video few years back when I was opening my mails and looked at those envelopes thinking what I can make out of it, when I was looking up on TH-cam hers was the first video and since then I am watching all her videos.
I definitely fall into the category of collecting before creating. I am working through that . The way my mind processes crafts is, you must have everything in order to complete. I don't to stop in the middle of my creativity to run out to the store to purchase and then I don't feel like doing anything. Is anyone else like this? But..... I must agree with you, we don't need to collect, I feel as if i need everything in order to make it great project, and that is not true, just let it flow and create. Thank you so much for sharing your great ideas!
I've tried to get inspiration from other channels, but I always find myseld gravitating back to Treasure Books. Natasha, you're style and creativity are so unique that it's rare to find another channel that measures up. I have gone back and watched a lot of your older creation vidoes and I really love what it has done to my own junk journaling journey. Thank you for what you do and for not using a bunch of digitals!
Natasha, you inspire me every single time I watch your videos. You flow out of a creative well that is just amazing! Love everything about your ideas and how simply they are put together. I just love you! Keep on inspiring all of us -- you are a real blessing.
You are the best 🎉 You are the best Treasure in the world of creativity🎉 What would we all do without you? I must say you utilise every second together ❤️ making crafting an absolute joy🎉 Thank you Natasha 😊
I loved it! Especially the quilted and embossed cards, in spite of the paint sample chipping. I do have an idea for you to try...you know how you love the gold...what about applying some gold...I can't remember what it is called...gilding? rub n buff? or even just some gold acrylic rubbed over the chippy parts...I'm thinking it just might be a gorgeous addition! Thank you for the video! I watch and enjoy every single one!! Other youtubers I watch double speed but I like to watch yours regular speed...so I can enjoy it longer. :) You are my favorite. 💕
Oh, Natasha I just don't know how you keep coming up wtsuch creative ideas. But I am so glad that you do because it gets my creative juices flowing. You also bring your creativity to your videos along with your humor and it just makes watching your videos so fun to watch. I can only guess at how much time you spend making new things and then filming, editing and all the rest that goes with making videos. Thank you for all you do for us.❤👏👏👏
My brain is exploding! So many ideas. Good to caution against collecting too many. And, I love your book. I made sure to buy it from an independent book seller. (Support local and small businesses.)
I absolutely love the Birthday and Christmas cards.!! I mean, they look like they came straight from Hallmark! Just more beautiful ideas from that head of yours! You are talented, don't let anyone ever try and tell you differently! 😊
Natasha, you have rekindled my love for crafting once again. I like to consider myself a creative mind, but with my last year of high school sucking up all my time, and the overall pressure of school these past few years, that creativity has become stagnant. Your videos, though, have showed me the possibilities of just what I can do with a little paper and a little glue. When I had downtime I went to my local dollarstore and got some mod podge and found cute little blocks of patterned paper. I got home, dug out my kebab skewers, and started rolling up my beads and now I have them in a container proudly displayed. So, all I really want to say is thank you - even though it feels like a thank you doesn't suffice the extent of my gratitude! :)
My friend works at Walmart and brought me a sack full of paint cards that the vendor was going to toss because of a change out. This video is perfect timing for those. Thanks for the great ideas for using them. Love all of your videos. I binge watch you. Lol
So glad you’re showing some ideas where the paint chips are clearly visible…majority of the videos I watched they are almost completely or completely covering them up 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ Personally, in most cases, I want it known that I’m using an ACTUAL Paint Chip! I mean what’s the point of using them in the first place if you cover them all up?! Not to mention they are simply cute and the colors are so pretty! Thanks Natasha! ❤
Natasha, thank you again for another wonderful video. I watch all your videos and I have your awesome book. I don't know what I would do if it wasn't for your ideas of inspiration. Thanks for sharing your never ending creativity.👏❤
Natasa We are currently renovating our house so buying lots if paint. I was using the sample cards for that purpose and saved them. My husband assured me it would be stealing if not collected for the purpose they were meant for. 😊😊
I had to comment again. I just cannot believe i read a negative comment on your page. That totally blew me away. I rarely comment on pages unless the content either moves me, or is disturbing. So to see someone negatively address your content really only tells me one thing...that jealousy o guess gets the best of us sometimes! Keep up the amazing content!
Thanks for this and making me realize that I’m eternally stuck in the collecting phase! Love them all but esp the trees and cake tags. Still going to paint Dept! A sure bet on color coordinates ready made! 👍❤️
I bought your book and almost always have it open for reference while I'm crafting. I'm looking forward to a second one with more project ideas one day! Thank you for continuing to give us inspired ideas and tutorials.
Love the ideas and great advice! The collection phase was fun, but expensive too. In the end, I'm not even able to get to all my collection because there is too much lol
What a storm of creativity!🤩 It´s just amazing. Every time I watch one of your videos, Iwonder, how your brain works 🤪. LOVE;LOVE;LOVE it! And will ever do! Lots of love, Britta 🥰
Your videos inspire me so much that even when it's late I have to run to my crafting place and craft till the next day because I really loose track of time! I really appreciate you for taking all the time it takes for your channel let alone all the hours you spend crafting and creating. Thank you so much 💖 💓 🤗
Love it! 💕 You teach us there is know wrong way when it comes to creating our cards , books and etc. Love the paper buttons. Be safe and have a great week 💕
Natasa, I'm new to journaling. I haven't even made one yet. I'm so glad I found your videos. I just recently bought your book, and I absolutely Love it! You inspire me with all your lovely journals and beautiful items you make. Thank you so much.... Barb from Missouri.
Beautiful as always wonderful suggestions! I wish I could get the book, not working makes the budget small. I'm blessed to have you on free Utube videos. I appreciate all you do for us. Huge HUGS! Namesta 🐞🐞🐞
Wonderful ideas. I thought of something when you showed the negative of the butterflies 🦋. A belly band that sticks out as a tab..double duty strip 😊. Love all of your ideas, you're right, the possibilities are endless. Thanks for sharing 😊
Great ideas, thanks for inspiring.....I've been saving paint chips for years and years, never had any idea what I would do with them!....so again...Thank you!
So many beautiful creations, as always! I appreciate the hard work you put into recording your videos & then editing them. I know it involves a lot of thinking & keeping things straight in your mind. If you're like me, you watch & re-watch & edit some more 😄. Thank you! 💖
This idea inspires me to use my solid color scrap paper using the same ideas because I don’t have paint chips but lots of scraps to use. Great inspiration as always.❤❤❤
Awesome ❤❤ once again Natasha. Such creative ideas. I always looking forward for your brilliant ideas. Thanks soooo much for sharing your beautiful crafts with us❤❤ love it.
I wish I had more clever ways of telling you how inspiring your work is. It just is. TY Natasa.

I agree as well. Natasha is just amazing, kind and talented. I can’t express how much I appreciate her videos
I feel the same way! So most of the time now I just say ❤❤❤
