It's amazing how you can take a piece that's not very attractive and make a cluster on it, and all of a sudden, it's stunning. I wondered how you were going to make that 1st one pretty, but you put your magic fingers on it and beautiful!! I love the butterflys with the black lace. And don't forget bling !!!
Just wanted you to know you are the most fun to watch! poking fun at yourself, talking about your family. I SO enjoy watching you and your videos. I take most of this and show my grands. I must admit, this even is something that my grandsons enjoy! they are 8y and 6y. My granddaughter is 4y and she loves alot of this. we are still working on our journals, but your tags, bands, etc make it very fun for the boys! Go figure! Thank you for all you do. Tamara
Oh thank you so much Tamara, I love that you share my projects with your grandkids. I wish my boys were still young enough to craft along!!! Lol. Much love to you x
Just spent the evening watching your series on making a glue book. I love love LOVE it. The bright colors, less journaling more cutting and pasting. I have a feeling I’ve found my lane in journal making. Thank you Tina, my hero. Stay strong. You got this. Hugs!
Oh thank you so much Julie. I loved making the glue book journal so much, I am going to do another as soon as the weather is better to be able to get outside to paint the book (just because it is quicker to let it dry in the sun) . I am so pleased that you have found a style that appeals to you x
Loved watching you make these belly bands Tina, never apologise for how long your video runs for, for me I would love longer videos of yours to watch x
they are super pretty and you make the black lace rock like no one else! :) Thank you so much for your kind words about my butterfly journal!! Hugs, Barbara
I saw Barbara’s journal it is beautiful, she is working on a metallic pink one too. Your belly bands are wonderful, the black lace is beautiful and adds a lot to everything.🇨🇦
Hugs to you and your children!!! Prayers and love your way!!! Love the belly bands, very pretty. You are the first JJ I started watching. Love your accent.
I love watching you craft!! I need to add some black lace to my repertoire! I've always leaned to the cream and soft pink but the black adds such a beautiful dynamic! I saw Barbara's video...that turquoise is stunning and yesterday I watched her start one in metallic pink....so pretty! Enjoy your play date and stay warm!! I'll be back to watch part 2!
Thank you Kerri. Oh I just love black lace so much. I haven't had a chance to watch Barbara's pink cover yet, can't wait to see it, I loved that blue/green one that she did sooooo much x
I've been putting belly bands in my journals also. Tha grandbabies made mini journals last week. They were on spring break. Next time they are here we'll decorate them. God bless your family.. Hugs to you.
Oh I love that your grandbabies made mini journals, what a lovely fun time they must have had, and something for them to look forward to finishing when they next visit x
I have always wondered why we have so many scraps, it always seems like everyone is just using scraps before using anything else... I think the scraps breed at night when we are sleeping LOL
Those are beautiful and you used up a lot scraps! I saw Barbara’s cover with the metallic paint, wow, gorgeous..love that metallic paint! And yes those pink and brown scraps looked great together!! 💕
Love the new belly bands you made super cute and different, hope you get a chance in your next video to show how they look on a page since they are folded over! Thanks for sharing, & enjoy outing.
Tina, you always amaze me with that hot glue gun. Lol , I would have bandages all over my hands. I love that use of black lace. Omgoodness its gorgeous. I hope you have a super fantastic day Sherry 🧡🧡🧡sending love and hugs
Not crafting I just got to met my new grandson! Born on Saturday April 10 at 5:50 pm William Paul Willoughby Jr came into this world weighing 7lbs 5oz 20 inches .His grandpa and I took care of his 3 year old big brother Zech and 2 year old big sister Zelda
Oh my gosh, how exciting!!!! What a beautiful name, there is nothing quite like a new baby in the family is there? Congratulations on your new grandson! Love to you xx
Do you know... I have never, ever in my little life made let alone used a belly band??? I can't tell you why cuz I'm not sure. They seem useful and the ones I've seen have been pretty... I just haven't... hmmm... 🤔 perhaps it's finally time. And, yes, you cannot beat black lace because it really IS always gorgeous. Desert hugs, MK 🤗❤🌞🌵 Oh! ...our spring-like weather seems to be staying around, but then again we are fooled pretty much EVERY YEAR and we get one more chilly chill, even to the point of snow in May a few years ago. One never knows! 🤷♀️ Hope your spring returns soon. 🌸🌼🌸 😗❤
I can't believe that you haven't made a belly band?? Lol. Once you do, they will be yet another thing to get hooked on! Haha. Yes, black lace, it is hard to beat isn't it? Everything just looks awesome with it. We have had a really strange mix of weather this week again, sunshine (even though it's still been cold) one minute, and then snow flurries the next!!! Really strange! I hope we don't get snow in May!!! xx
Love the Belly bands, I don’t make enough of them, I think some how they scare me like the snippet rolls and clusters. I’ve just started using more black lace after watching you, but I keep thinking of Aggadoo lol. Hope you and your daughter enjoyed the trip out with friends and you kept warm. I did see Barbara @ 49dragonflies teal green bag, it was beautiful, she’s doing a pink one now also. Hope you’re all doing okay, take care. Much love as always xx❤️❤️
Lol, it's weird isn't it that we feel scared by certain things? Wow, I just can't use enough black lace, I just LOVE it. Aggadoo!!!! Haha! We definitely have an 80's theme going on here this week!! Haha. Oh wasn't Barbara's green bag just gorgeous? I haven't had a chance to watch her pink version yet, but I can't wait to see it. Much love to you xx
Oh my comment didn't show up lol, try again 😄. I love a good belly band! Great variations! It takes me ages to cut with decorative scissors! Yes, crafting is good for the soul. 😆yes, ink is the magic potion! As well as black lace and bling. That bling is rather 'gappy', I've started clicking 'buy again ' for online purchases to make sure I get the right thing. Loved Barbara's cover, my favourite colour! She later did a gorgeous pink one. Gorgeous belly bands💖
Gosh, isn't it annoying when you type out something and then it disappears??? Lol. Yes ink, lace and bling, they are all like magic potions aren't they?? I LOVED Barbara's cover soooooo much, I haven't had a chance to watch the pink version yet, but I am sure it will be stunning xx
Oh thank you so much Sheila. The base papers I used were from 12 x 12 paper pads. My newest papers are the Apricot Days, the Smell the Roses and the Melrose Garden x
Love these, you are brilliant at decorating, I’m better at making lol, I find decorating really hard. Do you find the glue gun better than wet glue? I have to admit I bought everything including finger protectors but alas my glue gun is still in its box!! So so pretty. You always make me laugh, cheer me up, and make me almost feel, I can do that 😁 Thank you xx❤️
I don't know if it's just my iPad, but nothing on your website is working, none of the links load. It might be just my ipad, I just wanted to let you know.
Oh no, hopefully it was just a blip, I seem to be able to get on, but I can never tell if that is because my links are different (because I am logged in etc) x
I have never noticed your desk jiggling, I don’t see anything amiss.
Love your creativity! Gentle bear hugs xx

Beautiful belly bands! Well done! I always forget to make them in advance. 😊
As usual, it was a pleasure to watch tonight. Thank you for sharing your creativity.
Beautiful Tina thank you for sharing 🥰🐞🤗
I have always wondered why we have so many scraps, it always seems like everyone is just using scraps before using anything else... I think the scraps breed at night when we are sleeping LOL
Like bunnies!!!
Lol so true, the next day I'm asking where did these come from?
Yes they're like Buzz lightyear and woody! Wait until you're not looking them 'HELLO! " 😂
Those scraps multiply like gremlins! 😂😂
@@stephaniem4612 OMG!!! Yes!!! That's also one of my all time favorite movies from the day!!!
Your belly bands turned out great (and make me realise I've been severely under decorating mine).
Lol, or I have been over decorating mine???? Haha x
Hi Tina, these are so pretty! It’s crazy what can be done with scraps. Hugs 🤗
Thank you so much Linda. I love just doing little projects like this, however the scraps pile never does go down in size though does it? x
Those are beautiful and you used up a lot scraps! I saw Barbara’s cover with the metallic paint, wow, gorgeous..love that metallic paint!
And yes those pink and brown scraps looked great together!! 💕
She is just so talented isn't she? I LOVED the colours on her cover, just stunning!!! xx
@@shabbydabbydoodah yes she is, as are you!! Stunning is the right word for her cover! That metallic paint is incredible! xx
Beautiful Belly Bands...thank you.

I would just fussy cut the butterflies and flowers off the straps and use as embellishments and call it a day.

Lol the 'holy trinity ' of crafting. Barbara completed the pink journal in today's video so you could see it all in that one to save time x
Those papers are beautiful! Are they are your own kits? I couldn’t find your new collection!🥰
Oh thank you so much Sheila. The base papers I used were from 12 x 12 paper pads. My newest papers are the Apricot Days, the Smell the Roses and the Melrose Garden x

Hi Tina, your shop is great and you have a big variety of beautiful kits 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
How long do you have your shop?
Hugs Victoria 🌺
Thank you so much Victoria. I have had my shop for about 3 and a half years now x
I’m watching, I have no idea what a belly band is!
Tina
I can't find part 2 of this video x
Not crazy about the second one but like the rest. Hope you and your daughter don’t freeze today.
Thank you Sherry, yes that hounds tooth paper is really nice isn't it? It was pretty cold at the park.......we didn't stay for that long!!! Haha x
