If you like the witchy paper set, I want to encourage you to check out the artist Cocorrina’s work: instagram.com/cocorrina.co?igsh=MWh5ZTE5MjQyenNpeA== I can’t currently confirm if Journalsay have the artist’s permission to be selling this item but I’m looking into it!
The questionable quote is from the Chinese story 没有过不去的坎儿 (There is no obstacle that cannot be overcome). It's about a Chinese woman in the Sino-Japanese war. She experienced it's of setbacks but saw through every single one and finally died of old age with a positive attitude. The quote goes on: " After she knew about it, she would come to those people and soothed them by saying, “Don’t do that silly thing. There are no such setbacks that we could not overcome. The Japanese armies are bound to be foiled one day!”
I'm 45 seconds into the video and I just want to give you an absolutely MASSIVE thank you for making an effort to avoid the AI images - I'm so sorry that people had been mean previously (or if I myself when pointing out was coming across as mean too!) I just did my first order from journalsay with their sale and I'm certainly worried I'll have a ton more than I realize, myself. I wasn't super careful when picking but I'm planning to make a few videos about noticing AI art whenever I start my book channel :) I hope people are nice to you this time around and I'll mention any I see below this comment!
I use the sticker pages (the marbled ones) as pockets in my journal. They hold index cards beautifully, and you can peel off the backing just from 3 of the outside edges to stick them on. 🥰
You're enabling me again 😂 Some things just 'fell down the portal" (into my cart!) but not the 'very cheery' washi tape. Looking forward to seeing your reading journal.🥰
I just got my box today from the sale. I was journaling with my niece and she pointed out that everything I had was vintage. I ordered starry, maps, and fantasy to expand my collection. 😊
I am also obsessed with keys! I'm glad you pointed out that they have lots of key stickers - I need those! Maybe September could b vintage doors. Or rooms behind the doors. You could add "paintings" in the rooms with the frames, as well.
I have a stamp cleaner pad similar to that one, it's got more of a long "velour" type fabric to rub the stamp against and with that one you can remove the pad and wash it (I use dish soap and let it dry when it gets too grungy), I got it at Michael's here in the US (it's made by Recollections, if I remember correctly, and you just squirt their stamp cleaner on it)
I also bought these eucalyptus and ginkgo stickers ages ago and was so mad about how big they are 😂🤦🏼 I find that really annoying with shops like journalsay, you could be lucky but if you don't pay enough attention you end up with stuff that you didn't really want and if you pay enough attention you accidentally spend 5 hours going through all different kinds of products again and again 🤔
not gonna lie, that purple scrapbook paper set reminded me of biology class where we had to look at cells under a microscope or something. The navy/black celestial ish washi tape set looks similar to a set I got a couple of years ago, I should probably try to use them one day 😅
Love your links. Love your reading journals. I just wish I could find a way to print the book covers like you do except the HP Sprocket is no longer available 🥲
I have the monets garden set. You should be able to line the tapes up to make the picture on the front of the box. Just thought I'd mention it incase you wanted to test it out. I think it turns out really pretty.
I love these videos because it means I can justify buying more stationary :D . I also have the exact feather pen, but I got it from somewhere else. I did get that pack of marble paper set from Journal say last year, and I too was a bit disappointed with how they were in real life. I use them, but I certainly regret buying them. I loved the vellum paper and the other transparent paper sets. So, it's time to go shop!
I've noticed the questionable text on some washi tape from journalsay, it usually makes me laugh, but the one on your washi tape is really crazy and ominous. I have a vintage text roll that looked so aesthetically pleasing on the website, and I still use it. But it has lines like 'I need my cowboys to be busy. No trouble, no trouble, no trouble' and 'the boss first came for a milkshake and invited you before he ran for his life'. Why? How? I'm really confused.
It happens a lot with stickers - bought a couple of sticker books in my local shop, the designs are cute, but the texts are so random (and full of missing letters, etc.) not sure if I'll be using some of them 😅
I got some vintage text washi from Amazon and they had REALLY weird text on it too! I thought it was just me! lol I am wondering if they are text from different books or if they just make up random sayings in order to fill the space thinking we don't really care what the text says.... spoiler alert --- I DO, in fact, care! lol
That pastel grid washi 😍😍😍 I love using with washi that has elements on it in the same colorway, it just adds something to it and makes it look really vintage and old soul which is definitely my vibe. Love seeing your hauls! I can't wait until I am able to build my stash hopefully one day soon but I am taking notes from your hauls for when that happens!
Love a Journalsay haul! The witchy papers, the key stickers and the basics washi set are really testing my resolve not to make another order until I've used up more stuff from my previous one 😅 Also the sticker storage, I really need to invest in some. I'm also really looking forward to spooky season, October is my birthday month as well, so I will really be indulging myself in witchy and gothic style galore 🖤
Don't burn your dip pen nibs! The rapid change in temperature can warp them out of shape and make them funky to write with, if not unusable! If the ink dipping doesn't work then you can use a tiny bit of hand sanitiser wiped on with a tissue to remove the coating on the metal, really looking forward to seeing your calligraphy with dip pens- fair warning it's addictive once you get the hang of it!
Oh good, I’m glad I’ve never tried it then! 🤣 I have another set that instructed scrubbing with dish soap and an old toothbrush so that’s the only thing I’ve done so far besides the multiple-dip thing! 😅
We are now buddiees erin...I have the exact washi tape set. The witchy oneee... In fact I used them today while watching your vlog haha....I Love the set and the light blue pattern is my fav. They are good quality and great bang for the buck. Oh for sample a lab vial holder or lipstick holder is a little better though but, hey u can also put stickers and off cuts in there.
Girl please 😂 I saw that blurred out total on the thumbnail (even if it was fake lol) ne I know exactly what you are talking about. I just did a triple digit haul of my own. So excited!
hello the apothecary stickers are cute they could be used for a hallowen theme in spring as the southern emisphere is in pritemps at that time it could be cute and change a bit
i wonder if using those wings on some of the other people-y stickers you've received before would be good for making them into fairies? or are fairies still to much people to go into your journal?
It's a shame about the Monet washi. I love his artwork and I know I would have been attracted to it. I have never heard of this supplier before so I think I will browse around their website. I don't need anything at all, but I have never let that stop me! It looks like they are a reasonably priced company, which will also get me in trouble.
Hello Erin, love your content. Can you clarify where Journalsay is located? When I purchased my items it shows a charge in United Kingdom and Hong Kong. It appears as though I’m being charged twice. Thank you
Hi! I believe they’re based in China, that’s definitely not good that you’ve been charged twice! Might be worth getting in touch, there’s a ‘get in touch’ link at the very bottom of their website 💕
@@ErinSmith can’t find my corner cuter thingy…. I mean, I need buy one to replace it… and once there I mean… it would be foolish to not look at other thing….🤣
Please, please don’t bite my head off anybody, but why does the AI thing matter so much in this scenario? It’s just going toward making our own creations? Just remember I’m asking as I don’t know the answer, so please be kind. Carla
Hi! Simply it matters beccause its pushing an already difficult to make a living job further into the "unlivable carreer" - keep in mind artists are already called starving artists for a reason. Long form- it matters because a lot of AI art is trained with art stolen from various artists without permission, who often sell their own work as their job, taking commissions or also making Journaling products. When AI art is trained using the stolen art from people trying to make a living, for a much lower cost than the people doing the manual work of creating loving art (not that AI does not also take refinement and time) then we are pushing actual artists completely out of their jobs. They cannot compete with the 20 dollar pack AI generated off stolen art to emulate their style when they have to charge 150 for time and labor for a single image. Showing consumer interest in ai art allows companies to justify continuing selling of Ai art. I hope this helps you :)
@@alyxbeauchamp7883 thank you. I had not considered it that way before. Thank you also for taking the time to teach me instead of some of the people out there who would rather belittle people for their questions instead of making it a teaching moment. Carla

You did a great job :) I didn't see anything g you also didn't question yourself.
Please please make the video on recognizing AI art so I can avoid it, because for me it’s very hard to notice too 😢 it will help me a lot. Thank you
Ipl certainly try! Im getting married in september and ive never made a video before, but im hoping to! @IsabellaPabst
I have no clue what to look for, I'd love a manual lol
I use the sticker pages (the marbled ones) as pockets in my journal. They hold index cards beautifully, and you can peel off the backing just from 3 of the outside edges to stick them on. 🥰

Absolutely love this. Great stationary haul. My style and didn’t know these things could be so reasonably priced.
The holographic leaf stickers are giving a rivendell vibe 😊
Ooh you’re right! 😍
Well! I’m definitely going to grab some of those witchy ones!
I have a stamp cleaner pad similar to that one, it's got more of a long "velour" type fabric to rub the stamp against and with that one you can remove the pad and wash it (I use dish soap and let it dry when it gets too grungy), I got it at Michael's here in the US (it's made by Recollections, if I remember correctly, and you just squirt their stamp cleaner on it)

That’s so true Nele - the item listing titles are not all that descriptive 🥲 on one hand, I love a challenge - but on the other hand… TOO BIG 🤦♀️

YES it’s definitely giving amoeba 🤣🦠

Those pastel washi’s omgggg 😍😍😍
Omg I love those norino tapes but I’ve never managed to get to the end of one without it breaking 😢

wow all those washi tapes are amazing!! 🥰
I love watching your stationary haul videos ✒️🗒️✂️🪞📓🗝️

I really enjoy your haul videos. They're relaxing and fun. Also, your swatches are super helpful! I want to go spend money now lol.
😂 sorry but also not sorry Leah! Haha I’m so glad you enjoy my lil hauls!

Great haul! I have that same stamp cleaning set on the way.. I'm the worst at cleaning my stamps, so I'm glad it works so well.
Becka it’s about to change your life! I’m so impressed with it!
the moment when a washi tape sends you spiraling with its inscription)
It REALLY sent me 🤣 I was like it can’t really say that can it? CAN IT?
Currently reading a nonfiction about Mone himself) and here is this video) I also have bookmarks with his works, love them)
He’s popping up everywhere!
Your last journalsay haul inspired one of my own, I’m in so much trouble 😭😂
Eep! Sorry but also a little bit not sorry? 😅

I’m so excited for you too! 😍 it’s wild how far $100 goes when the prices are this low, sometimes I wonder how they fit it all in the box 🤣
hello
the apothecary stickers are cute they could be used for a hallowen theme in spring as the southern emisphere is in pritemps at that time it could be cute and change a bit
That’s a very good idea!
I love the haul.
i wonder if using those wings on some of the other people-y stickers you've received before would be good for making them into fairies? or are fairies still to much people to go into your journal?
I reckon I’m ok with them in my reading journal! That’s such a good idea!
Je viens juste de commander, j'attends avec impatience ma commande
I had a fever dream and ordered $100 worth of stationary, it arrived and I was so confused. Looked at the time of the order and it was 3 AM...😅
Eep! I hope delirious you chose good stuff! 🤣
It's a shame about the Monet washi. I love his artwork and I know I would have been attracted to it. I have never heard of this supplier before so I think I will browse around their website.

… merde! I was on vacation so I am doing a delayed viewing. I do NOT need new stationery… but it’s sooo pretty!
Eep look away! 🤣 at least it’s very affordable! 😉
@@ErinSmith can’t find my corner cuter thingy…. I mean, I need buy one to replace it… and once there I mean… it would be foolish to not look at other thing….🤣
The text on that washi is very what the actual eff 😮
RIGHT what is that?!?!
haha, I already have the PET tapes with the gold stars and leaf patterns
They’re so good Marie! Have you used them much?
@@ErinSmith not a lot as yet, as you had noted, they basically need something to go against to stand out more
Amei o vídeo ❤
There being shipped from Japan so what is the shipping cost
Free for orders over USD$29!
What's the $10 threshold promo at 34:11?
I have no idea to be honest - I believe it’s to do with their summer sale?
Hi, new subscriber. I enjoyed watching your vlog. The items look nice. You look beautiful!
Hi there! Thank you so much 🥰 I’m so glad you’re here!
I'd have no idea what to watch for when I am looking for AI in tapes and stickers. Are there any obvious ones?
The wings and keys stickers are perfect to make Harry Potter keys!!!!❤
They are so perfect for that! A few of the keys already have wings too!
❤❣
So I'm wondering what the problem with is AI art? I'm older, so not very Tech Savvy.
Yeah, that washi tape is weird. It sounded like they randomly selected bits of newspaper or magazine articles and no one checked the content.
Right? The rest was more innocuous but that one section makes it pretty much unusable 😅
Please, please don’t bite my head off anybody, but why does the AI thing matter so much in this scenario? It’s just going toward making our own creations? Just remember I’m asking as I don’t know the answer, so please be kind. Carla
