Fabulous! I love the tag, lots of fun details. I cringed when you pulled the ribbon and it tore. So, glad you carried on and fixed it. Not everyone will know, just us, and I’ll never tell.
😂, I am glad the secret stays just here. Years ago I would have been so upset about something like that happening but I have learnt there is usually always a work around when we make a mistake and I think ripping a tag top is one of the easiest. Thank goodness I have far to much washi close to hand. 😊
Thank you Trish. Sarah makes wonderful pages with her crocheted edges. I wish I could crochet but I am thankful she sends me some to play with. It works perfectly in this journal and adds that little extra special memory 😊
Gosh, i think you are so creative, and I love your art! Only because you asked what I think, I will share this. I was perplexed when you found the beautiful green map with the gorgeous little brown part at the bottom, (and I think I was just as excited as you were about that piece of ephemera), only in the end, to completely cover it up!😮Only the tiniest piece of green is showing now.😟 And similarly, the beautiful piece of green gray in the beginning is completely covered up! I guess that just makes no sense to me.🤔 Of course, despite all of these little woes for me, your end piece is absolutely fabulously gorgeous!!!!!🤩 Subscribed! And thank you for keeping me company while I work at my art table this evening. Sending much Aloha!✨️🌺🙋♀️
Thank you so much for watching, commenting and subscribing 😊. I understand completely what you are saying about covering such wonderful pieces up. I used to feel exactly the same way, both in my own creations and when watching others. However what I have come to realise is that trying not to cover things up was often hindering me creatively and I would end up with pieces I wasn't completely happy with. So then I thought just don't use those pieces, replace them with something I wasn't so worried about. However I found that doesn't work for me either. I now realise that even if something gets covered up its all about the thought process for me and adding those pieces helps inspire me creatively and enables me to start seeing the bigger theme/picture. So even if I can't see much of them I know they are there and they make my piece feel more complete to me. I hope that makes some sort of sense 😊
I love the little journal you made. The tag is fantastic! I love all of the fantastic layers and the dangley bit. And I really like the photo strip layered on top of the photo. 💜💜💜
Thank you, I am very happy with how it came together and its always fun to work with vintage photos but its also a balance to make sure the vintage photo still stands out as the star so hopefully I achieved that 😊
You should definitely do some of the prompts. I completely understand how your husbands items become yours 😂 I have a partner who is constantly bringing me things asking if I can use them in my crafts. He literally looks at anything, even the most random things and brings them to me 😂
Thank you. This little journal came together super quickly and I am so glad I made the last minute decision to make one as I am really enjoying working in it with these prompts. 😊
Thank you. I am not sure how to do a tutorial on layering as its just something I do without too much thought which I think comes from many years of card making. I will give it some thought though and maybe make one next year 😊
Bel, I’m literally putting together my journal as I watch you haha. I was making ephemera for my box and then… all of a sudden I was making a journal 🤷♀️
That's exactly what happened to me. I had no intention of making a journal but I guess the journal wanted to be made and we can't ignore the craft muses when they direct us 😊
I love your tag! I was giggling at you not being able to find things. I am having the same issue. I am trying to reorganize my room and I cannot remember where I have set things! I also struggle with fiddle bits.
Fiddly bits are my nemesis 😂 but I love charms and dangles so I can't avoid them. I need to reorganise my room again. After a year of crafting too many things are not where they should be. 😊
I love the way you layer, Bel. You inspire me. 😊❤
Thank you so much 😊
Wow! That is one of the best tags I’ve seen! I love all the layering 😊
Thanks so much, that's very sweet of you😊
That is a glorious tag! 😊
Thank you so much 😊
You are off to a wonderfully creative start! Love your tag

So I'm thinking of doing some of these prompts and I asked my husband if he had any photo strips. If he does...well then I have too 😊
💙🖖
You should definitely do some of the prompts. I completely understand how your husbands items become yours 😂 I have a partner who is constantly bringing me things asking if I can use them in my crafts. He literally looks at anything, even the most random things and brings them to me 😂
Love it.....🎄
Thank you 😊
Love your tag!! I wasn't going to do a journal either, and now that I saw yours I want to make one! Thanks!
Thank you. This little journal came together super quickly and I am so glad I made the last minute decision to make one as I am really enjoying working in it with these prompts. 😊
Your little calendar is so cute.
Thank you. I just love how little it is 😊
I love it too!
Thank you and thank you for watching and taking the time to comment 😊
Great tag, love the dangle.😊
Thank you 😊
I love this, too!! So many delicious layers!! Maybe you could consider doing a tutorial on layering. I am absolutely rubbish at it.
