I love ❤❤ watching you and hang out for the next video you make! BUT if you need a break you should take a guilt free break with no stress! Just let us know you’re taking a week or two off. We will be here when you get back. All jobs have times when you take a break. You deserve it!
I enjoyed this video. It is like hanging out with an old friend. I don’t mass make anymore. I started out mass-making but rarely used the items I made. If you miss a couple of weeks of content to go on vacation, I am sure your loyal followers will understand. Maybe a vacation with your hubby is the perfect way to charge your battery.
Oh Barbara, I’m sitting here watching your video when all of a sudden I hear my name! I stop the video and call to my hubby! “Barbara mentions me in her video” and I play it for him! I feel so honored you mentioned me and the things you said! I have never missed your videos and yes have commented on each and every one of them! Thanks for reading my comment and the sweet things you said! As always loved watching you create in this video and hearing about your plans and your food journey. You put the biggest smile on my face! TFS! ❤
Hi Barbara. I’m so glad that you are feeling better. I pray that you make a full recovery from breaking your rib. I hope you know that we would still be here if you needed a vacation or time off. It’s completely understandable. You are a gift to many of us and your well-being matters. So don’t stress my friend. Have a wonderful day. 😊❤
Regarding the fear of not having any content: You probably think that you will lose viewers and/or subscribers, but I believe that is false. I am so appreciative of the hard work you put in for our viewing pleasure. Trust me, I'm not going anywhere! I'm preparing my garden seedlings 🌱 so I'll be busy with that - why not take that vacation? You wouldn't have to go far for a vacation reset. Enjoy !!
I rarely miss one of your videos, but don't often on anyone's channel. I always enjoy your videos; you provide such a variety. I'm amazed & impressed with your unique, eclectic style. I've gotten so many ideas & tips from you. Thank you for sharing with us.
Love those “raw - uncut videos”, it really feels like we are crafting together. We really exercise our listening skills without interrupting each other since we cant respond immediatly 😂 I was doing some stitching on paper while watching your video. Yellow gold and rose gold are my “go to” colors for splattering.
This is such a wonderful little journal. Glad to see it again. I do food prep and keep meals for work in my freezer. My health journey became serious for me about 2 years ago. I was tired of battling chronic joint pain. I have struggled with kidney stones for almost 20 years. I started eating low oxalate and the weight peeled off and the joint pain went away. I haven’t felt this good in years! My motivation to keep to this new way of eating (WOE) is to keep the joint pain away. I think each person has to find their individual health plan that works for them and it doesn’t always include a medical person. I hope you soon get a relaxing vacation and come back re-energized! Have a blessed day!
Hi Barbara. I love watching you work in this little journal. I watched how you made it. I love the chatty vibe of this series. Great to craft along (I'm busy making ephemera for a journal I plan for a friend). Thanks for being such good company 🌼💛
Sounds like you really need a break - maybe that is why you keep getting colds. Yes I agree a beach break may be just what you need. thank you for posting this type of video. I have been crafting along by cutting out floral images from a herbal book - I cut out 54 images which makes a wonderful stash.
Love this little gem! It's so beautiful. I always love hearing about your family traditions. Once again, I had to pause and pull up some maps of all those exotic locations! All of those beautiful coastal locations look so tempting. LOVE a beach vaca!!!
Bonsoir 😊 J'adore 🥰 et j kiffe 🥰 totalement ce que vous proposez en tuto 😁. Merci beaucoup 😊. J'apprécie votre voix et vos rires 😁 ça fait plaisir dans ce monde de fou 😊.
Hallo Barbara, beach and nothing else I think it's the best thing to recharge the battery. unplugging every now and then is necessary. when you return to everyday life you see things from a different point of view
Love this journal and the talk of your health struggles. It’s so frustrating when you get on the right path and then something gets in your way. Hang in there. Don’t worry about going away for a couple of weeks. We’ll be here when you get back. 🤗🇨🇦🤗
Thanks again for dephemerember!!! It inspired me to try new things, including FINALLY stepping out of my comfort zone and creating my TH-cam channel. But the best was making new friends. The #scrappy8 girls are a blessing.
Even tho your style is totally different to mine, I love your creative style and videos, Barbara. Currently I am making a journal called Antique Bazaar. I use mostly paper for my journals. 😊 Get well soon. 🥰
Hello Barbara, these videos are my favorite, I love the bright colours on your pages. My style changed a lot, when I look at the old pages I don't like what I'm seeing, it's a good idea to put everything in one journal. ❤❤❤ I prepare my breakfast and lunch for work in the evenings, I start working at 8.00am, I wake up at 4.30am, after 6.00am it's hard to find a parking and I don't have time to eat breakfast at home so I do that at work. I don't have a particular diet, I just control my portions, timings, chocolate especially😊😊😊 and do youtube pilates. I don't eat out, I always think I can make it myself and even more better. As for the washing machine noise for me personally you shouldn't apologize, usually I always watch you creating while I'm doing the laundry, I find it very relaxing. Never give up for your health and safety Barbara!!! b🦋
Loved this uncut video. No, I didn't journal along with you. I just watched you create. I feel relaxed as you dig through all your bits and bobs containers looking for the perfect bit or bob😊. Loved it. Thank you for sharing with us.
I love the cover on this little Journal. I like the outside piece that wraps around the main cover. I like using my Grandkids shirts that they’ve outgrown for the fabric. Right now I have 2 shirts. Similar fabric. Both are a large gingham print. One is black and white. The other is teal, white and a small black stripe. I have black lace, white lace and I just found some teal lace. So now I’m thinking it would be so cute to put a topper around the black and white base. I love this free and easy series. I hope you and your hubby have a great, relaxing vacation. You deserve it. Edit: I forgot to tell you, I started watching you when your tube of Van Gogh gold was completely full. Its EMPTY!! I hope Action or wherever you get it from still carries it. Lol
Love spending time with you! If I lived near you, I would volunteer one afternoon a week to help you so you didn't feel as overwhelmed. I don't even know if that is practical...like if there is even anything another person could do for an artist. It would also be good for me and would inspire me.❤
If you need a vacation, it should be a priority. Your physical and mental health are important to those of us who have come to love you. Don’t worry - your army of admirers will still be here, even if you miss posting a video or two. We’ll just be more eager for your return. 😊 Please take care - you are the best provider of Junk Journal content on YT, and we don’t want to lose you. ❤️
Love this cute little journal. As always I keep learning new techniques for working in my own jj. Thanks for all the inspiration Barbara. Would love to do a paper/embellishment swap with others (if this is something possible in the future)?? Like you said - it's always more fun to use other people's euphemera rather than your own. Stay healthy!
🎉🎉🎉neben den typischen Gold, Weiss und Schwarz, nehme ich gerne rot und grün in der Weihnachtszeit...blau und grün im Sommer😊schönes Wochenende und liebe Grüße Petra ❤️
Thank you Barbara you’re so fun to watch. Staying fit can be fun if you do things you like to do. Keep moving eat a good healthy balanced diet no gimmicks small portions stay away from sugar and sodium. Walk every day. And get some hand weights. Yoga is good too. 💕🌸💕
I totally agree with you about "mass makes" - when I need something for a journal, I want to make it then, so that I can choose exactly what I want to use so it "matches" and so that it fits the space I need to fill...
I was working on a slow stitch piece while watching. Sorry about your health challenges, I can relate. I recently had carpal tunnel surgury and while still healing, my hand is working better than before when it was actually interfering with my ability to do art. Have a wonderful vacation and don't worry about us. I am sure most of your followers wn't disappear if you miss a few weeks! I know I won't. Self care is what keepsyou in the game, better to rest when you need to than burn out and quit (and I recall you saying that this has happened to you in the past!)
Hi Barbara. I meal prep weekly. On Sunday prepare a meal for Sunday through Wednesday. Thursday I will another meal, an easy one to get through til the next Sunday. I don’t do macros. But I find if I make 2 main meals I can have enough leftovers. I do have individual containers. I sometimes use them and sometimes don’t, depending on what I make. I do it because I work from home and it makes it so much easier for me during the work week. I almost always have salad fixings and swap lunches and dinners if I need a change. Sometimes I add the protein to my salad too.
Glad the bone density is being done, I commented about that after you told us about your rib. Also, building muscle to support your bones will be a life long journey. Food prep? I grow my own veggies, lettuce and herbs. There is a drying process to preserve and freezing but worth the extra effort. Oh ya!! Our meal time is always prepped. We vary rarely eat out, and we do not eat fast food. Also watch salt intake and drink more water for gut and joint health and muscles nned water!. Dont let people tell you that any of your strategic planning of food intake is stressful!!!! You will find your routine, Barbara and it will enhance your life, not stress you.Everything you are doing will benefit you. Keep it up, these temporary bumps in the road will pass! Thank you for sharing your health journey. Have a good lunch, love this little journal!❤Jeannie 😊
Another lovely hangout session Barbara. Maybe you & Luise could do a leftover Dephemerember scraps challenge with each other as a video 🤔 There are some beautiful scraps in there. Would love to get my paws on that basket lol
Hi Barbara, it makes me feel good when I hear that even you as a professional had to seek high and low for the right glues. It is either to weak, or stinky, or makes the paper all soggy and wrinkly, no matter how little you use. I think I have finally won, but sure am going to see what you recommend. Do not forget to rest more. your body is run down, needs a new path of adventurous exercise and healthy eating. Take care, what would we all do without you. 🌈🌹🌻☺
I keep a record everyday. I enter each meal with total calories, macros for protein, carbs, fat. I try for each meal to be 40% protein, 35% carbs, and 25% fat. Keeping the record manually works for me. Good luck! And l love your videos, no matter what you are doing! 💖
I have a piece of that braille paper from luise too!!!!!! I soooo agree, having scraps from someone else, is inspiring and brings all the good feelings! I am ALWAYS up for trading scraps
I really enjoy these uncut videos! Your little journal is so cute! In answer to your question, I most often do white splatters, but I bought some gold paint so I will be trying that out soon!😊 I hope you have so much fun on your trip and get some really nice rest!❤❤
Another comment ... I am always crafting with you, not necessarily following a tutorial but just the sound of you, Rachel at Roxy Creations or Natasha's voice, at Treasure Books. I currently have four covers to make. I leave them to the end, my signatures are done, ephemera, journal cards ... all of it. I am inspired by the 3 of you!! Each of you bring something special to the table. Easter tradition: my mom made my sister and I ( the youngest in family of 8 kids, with my twin brother) an Easter outfit. She was an excellent seamstress, cook, parent and worked hard on our farm. She was a woman I have always admired!❤ I have answered most of your questions???😂 😊
I love these uncut videos. Not only do they remind you of things you've done in the past, you remind me. I forgot about the corner tucks with a fold and I want to make some punches with fabric behind them. It's such a great way to use fabric scraps. While I was watching you this evening I was printing and cutting out photos for some memory keeping pages in my journal so I suppose I was crafting beside you, sort of. Easter traditions when I was a little girl always included a new dress and new, white patent leather shoes. My parents always hid the Easter baskets (always with See's candy) and then we would have Easter dinner with our extended family. Now, we go to church and then drive down to spend the day with our grandkids. It's all festive and fueled by chocolate!
Liebe Barbara! Ich schaue jedes Deiner Videos und liebe alle so sehr! Du bist eine riesige Inspirationsquelle, aber genauso auch eine Entertainerin - ich liebe es, Dir zuzuhören und zu schauen. Bitte nimm Dir Deinen Urlaub, so wie Du ihn brauchst! Auch wenn Du vier oder acht Wochen kein Video postest bin ich mir einhundert Prozent sicher, dass wir Dir alle erhalten bleiben und uns riesig auf Dein nächstes Video freuen werden! 🫶🏻💕
Hi! I’m making an art journal for my mother-in-law. I have book covers 9x12 and will use loose rings to bind it so she can change to larger rings as her journal grows. I’m including lots of inspiration and prompts. My challenge is to fill the huge pages, so wish me luck! 😊
Hi Barbara ... I had a giggle at " Girl that ship has sailed " ... I watch all your videos and some even more than once ... I look forward to each one and got spoiled in December when I could watch you almost every day. What I have learned from you is invaluable ! Here is a suggestion for a future video ... Gesso ... types, uses and examples of how you use it. I haven't used it before but are very curious to start experimenting with it but don't know enough yet. I hope you get better soon and girl, make plans for a nice vacation with relaxation ... you need it.
I hope you feel better soon. 💗 Throw out that ' be gratful' lol😅 Im sorry you don't celebrate Easter anymore as there is so much joy in knowing Our Savior died for our sins and has conquered death once for all! To hear the Hallujah chorus sung with the brass and booming drums ( my favorite) All the beautiful music 🎶 is so fulfilling for the soul ❤. Of course there are sweet chocolates. My sister cooked a delicious meal of ham, mashed potatoes with butter and milk, green bean vegetables 😋💖 🙏 I was inspired to make a special Easter paper craft happy mail gift too. All the best Barbara 💞🇨🇦
Best video, Barbara! I hate u broke a rib! Don't push yourself too hard, gotta rest to heal! You just come on to USA, and we will go to Disney World. We just got back and loved it! It was definitely not a restful trip, but it was sooo fun. They had topiaries of all the characters. I filled my phone up w pics! I did weight watchers a few years ago. I lost 50 lbs. Tracking was key! Meal prepping also helped tremendously. When I went out to eat, I normally got some type of salmon with a veggie, or just made that my cheat day. I live for your "Oh no" moments. Thank you so much for sharing such a personal video with us. I know u don't know me, but I am your friend in my heart! Hope u feel better and get a relaxing beach vacation w ur hubby❤❤❤
Love these relaxed videos....just enjoying pretty papers. I really loved the tiny journals hope you get a chance to complete them😊 Sorry about your broken rib and all the interruptions in your training schedule but you will get back to it when you are healed. I also hope your bone density tests yields positive results. Have a blessed and beautiful day ☀️🌷💛🧡
I forgot about your question about food. I do a combination of portion control, calorie counting, and carb counting. Also watching the sodium intake. We lost my mom the end of 2019, then Covid came and closed CA for a year, and then we moved to Texas which, at the time, was a little depressing. Being a stress eater I put on over 50 lbs. Over the past year I have taken off 31 pounds and will continue to work on the next 20. It's slow but slow stays away. On vacation I eat carefully for two days and then take a day off! It's vacation after all! I admire your determination. Keep going!
Lovely! 🤩🤩🤩 I’m so lucky that I don’t have to cook, my hubby is the chef here. If I was on my own and had to cook, I would probably prepare in advance. I stopped eating added sugar since September. I was addicted, but once it was set in my mind, it wasn’t even difficult. Sometimes I craft along with you and sometimes I just watch and enjoy the video. Hope you feel better and your rib will be healed soon. ❤
This video gave me a loooooot of ideas, again ❤ Would you please tell me how to make the little stars in paper that we can see in your basket ? (The basket where you found the numbers) Thanks a lot 🙏
I love these uncut videos. And, we get to hear about what's going on in your life too. 😊 Everyone needs to find their own way in figuring out their fitness journey, and you seem to be on track with yours! 😊 Meal prepping is something I did before and it's my plan to start again, since it's super handy to have lunch ready when you come home from work (I'm currently working less than part time). Easter... well, I usually visit my mum and we eat what we traditionally do in Sweden. Until some years ago, she'd go to church, and I'd stay home. Now she watches it on tv instead. We'd take a walk, or several, if the weather is ok. It's usually in April and we can still have snow and cold spells, but this year it was early. Question nr 3, or 2, I think was if we were crafting beside you, and I just enjoyed the video this time. Been unwell. Still work in that journal I wrote about, so yes, but it's a slow process. Now I'm going to refresh my memory and watch how you assembled this wonderful journal. 😊 And end this long, very long, comment...
@@49dragonflies, thank you. I am...it's been a crappy kind of week, but they do pass, don't they. Looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. Springtime at work is always very busy. I'm working in a Greenhouse. 😊🌱 I hope you'll have a lovely vacation in Egypt with hubby! Rest, sun, good food, wonderful culture and colours, beach, ocean (shark free, of course) and joy. 😊
😊very nice. I do watch what I eat. Generally its no sugar, use stevia, no maltodextrin foods. I never eat out because you never know how the food has been added to, processed, or age of prepackaged. I never buy prepackaged or ready to eat foods or preprepared. I filter my bottled water. Thats just a start in right direction. All natural food vitamins, powders,etc were next. Lol they are premade. My A1c was 6.5 when started.Now its 5.5, so im on right track.I'm afraid I do not exercise. But I do pop up and down alot, keeping busy. You and Luise keep me busy, which is a joy to start creating and learning techniques. Be safe, take care. The bread i eat i make myself. Its not a real sour dough. But i do ferment the dough in the refrig. Before i cook it. Ive started freezing the cooked bread, then toast it before eat. I heard that is better for you. Pasta, rice, potato, breads, better as it becomes resistant starches and feeds good bacterias in gut. I also add apple cider vinegar to my bread dough. If i add tsp. yeast, i then add tsp. of acv. Best flavor of bread for my tastes, is 3 days fermented. But use it any time. I got the recipe from Marys Nest video. A Busy Mothers Sour Dough Secret.or something like that title. I only use organic flour to stay away from pesticides. Take care.its the only time i use sugar, which i use sucanat sugar.lol
Barbara: I’m double your age and wisdom does set in. When? I have no idea. From what I heard, there is something always coming up for you to stop your personal training. Right there is what I call an alert. Why? Why is that happening? I have no idea, but maybe you do. Oh, of course your collaging is just so wonderful. Love it! Carol from California
It’s so crazy listening to Europeans going on vacation. In America if you go out of the country it’s a huge expense and huge trip. And you guys can pop anywhere but here easily. I get so jealous! It’s like the world is open to yall. All we have is America. Most have never left the country. Europeans can go everywhere. Grrrrrr! But hey don’t worry about your videos. Nobody is going to go anywhere. We are gonna wait right here for you and you’ll be so happy and relaxed and I dare say inspired when you return! Just take your vacation and unwind with the hubby and reconnect and then worry about your videos and stuff when you get back. That’s my best advice and 100% hope that you take this advice. 🎉🎉❤❤❤
Crafting along today. I do not food prep. I am almost 60, and I can’t even begin to tell you how much money, time, energy and more money I put into trying to lose weight and gain muscle. I have always been heavyset. I finally found small things that help me and slowly added, subtracted or changed. Nothing else was sustainable for me. For instance, I am the kind of person who needs to keep my diet/exercise plans to myself. I don’t talk about it because I’m tired of talking about it for so many years. 😂 But also because my motivation can only come from within. It is the kind of person I am. However, my best friend is the kind of person who has to constantly be talking about it. It’s her way of keeping herself accountable. She has done so good on programs like Weight Watchers. She needs cheerleaders all around her. She needs someone to mention, hey, is that on your diet? I guess what I’m saying is figure out what you need to be successful. And if meal prep works for you, then it will the most awesome thing for you to do. It will become a habit or routine that will help you for the rest of your life. Anyway, I do hope you start to feel better, again! And remember, the most important thing is that you are beautiful inside and out! Hugs ❤️🤗
I’m currently working on backgrounds for a new sketchbook. While we’d love to have you come to the USA, it’s probably better you decided not to come in an election year. Things are already heating up and people are just getting crazy. Anyway, when you do come, you should do a meet and greet! That would be so much fun! Don’t stress, just enjoy your trip. If we have to miss a few videos or a kit so you can relax and regroup we’ll be okay. We have over 1,000 videos to watch and lots of kits to play with until you get back from vacay, and we’ll still be here when you get back. It’s better to take a break now than to get burned out and not be able to make videos, etc. for an unknown amount of time.
Looove this videos 🙏🥰🥰 so chilled and easy going 🥰 can we make a journal for this purpose and do the journey together? I don’t believe that we can exercise a muscle that is consistent in a tight move. We got to relax the muscle to make it stronger. So relaxing holiday sounds like a great idea 👏🥳🥰 Hope you feel better soon dear ❤️🥰🙏 lots of love from arctic Norway 😊🌸🌼🌼☘️🌺
O dear, lots of questions….. next time please put them too in the description box…. 🥴🤣 Anyway seems you are still in conflict with perfection - I know that struggle and overcame it a bit by small daily pages in a way throwing some papers and glue and finishing with lots of purple paint, feeling happy at the end. Vacation: I wish hubby and I could have a last one but no traveling is to much for him. Instead we looking photo albums of all strange trips we made. Consider a train to the Netherlands and visiting the flower parades and flower gardens full with tulips etc……. Right take care of your health first and leave us a week or so without a video, makes us more appreciating…..
Hi .Yes the mass making doesn't work for me either. My style changes with every journal ,plus I get out paper and and use every little piece up. I am a bit too organised and like co-ordinated pieces. My plan is to try and make a grungy, messy junk journal, a freer piece. Will see if it is possible for me. Can only try. Thanks for the videos.
I have just started recently mass making ephemera, but I'm not a big fan of it because I ;ike to make from start to finish for a specific theme or book.
Sweetie are you ok? You don't sound good 🤗🤗🤗. What a cute way to us negative space 😍 I have some stashed somewhere. Yes, I have bits everywhere🙈. Yes finding your happy glues is definitely a process! Lol he's so CUUUTE 😍lol that ship definitely sailed. My kids are older, we just give a gift and some eggs to our 25 year old and send money for our granddaughter. She gets so much chocolate and an egg hunt so she enjoys having money to spend (little diva is 4 so it's usually rainbow unicorns glitter wellies etc 😄). We used to decorate boiled eggs, granddaughter does now. We have a tradition here where you roll them downhill and if yours doesn't break you go on to the next round. 😄 sounds silly explaining it now 🙊. Yes, other people's scraps look much more interesting! Scrap swap is cool. Yes, it'll be Christmas again soon 😄. I'm making a journal from leftover witchy stuff, one from gift bags and my third digital kit which I'm loving. Gold splatters for me since I first saw you do it! I knew you didn't sound right, I hope you feel better soon🤗🤗🤗. You could maybe holiday vlog instead of worrying about craft content? Showing how beautiful Egypt is maybe? I enjoyed seeing your photos last time. I love Egypt. Or take a break, we'll miss you but you're more important! I miss exercise, I was a bit obsessed🙊. Oh bone density? Fingers crossed! Your ankle was 2 years ago ?😱. I do fruit, salads, chicken, fish and slimfast, and really need to start🙈. I used to do an hour of high impact cardio (Ozrobics was fun) and half an hour muscle work every day. Oh seams is a fab idea 💡👏👏👏. Hope you feel better soon sweetie 🤗. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖
We spend time together and have a late lunch as we are mostly adults but we like to celebrate the resurrection of Christ as a family now granddaughter gets present or a Easter Basket. Love your tiny journal and the additional cuteness your adding.
Liebe Barbara, bitte mach dir nicht so einen riesigen Stress, wegen deiner Videos. Ganz ehrlich, ich glaube jede (r) hier in deiner Community, hätte vollstes Verständnis, wenn du mal 14 Tage gar kein Video sendest. Wie jeder Mensch hast du doch ein Recht auf Urlaub und Freizeit. Ich finde nicht, dass du uns 52 Wochen im Jahr mehrmals die Woche "füttern" mußt. Und schon gar nicht wenn es Stress bedeutet. Auch keinen mentalen Stress. Du gibst, du schenkst uns allen hier so viel, dafür kann man gar nicht dankbar genug sein. Du bist ein Mensch und kein KI, gottseidank. Und dann ist da auch noch deine Rippe, nimm dir die Zeit und Ruhe, damit sie heilen kann. Das mit der Esserei und dem Sport hört sich für mich grausig stressig an und so spassfrei. Aber da ist jeder anders und sollte sich für seinen Weg entscheiden. Disziplin ist toll, aber für so Perfektionisten wie dich vielleicht auch manchmal kontraproduktiv. Trau dich, lass alle Fünfe einfach mal gerade sein, lass die Beine und Seele baumeln, die Gedanken und Träume schwingen. Sei einer deiner unzähligen Schmetterlinge❤ Sway Babe sway... With hugs Ute

"Girl, that ship has sailed..." I LITERALLY laughed out loud! Thank you not only for the video, but for making my day with that caption.
Aaaaw thank you! ❤️
I laughed too!!😆
Sooo hilarious.
I love ❤❤ watching you and hang out for the next video you make! BUT if you need a break you should take a guilt free break with no stress! Just let us know you’re taking a week or two off. We will be here when you get back. All jobs have times when you take a break. You deserve it!
Thank you! ❤️
I enjoyed this video. It is like hanging out with an old friend. I don’t mass make anymore. I started out mass-making but rarely used the items I made. If you miss a couple of weeks of content to go on vacation, I am sure your loyal followers will understand. Maybe a vacation with your hubby is the perfect way to charge your battery.
Oh Barbara, I’m sitting here watching your video when all of a sudden I hear my name! I stop the video and call to my hubby! “Barbara mentions me in her video” and I play it for him! I feel so honored you mentioned me and the things you said! I have never missed your videos and yes have commented on each and every one of them! Thanks for reading my comment and the sweet things you said! As always loved watching you create in this video and hearing about your plans and your food journey. You put the biggest smile on my face! TFS! ❤
😃 I really meant what I said and I always look forward to your comments, Pam! ❤️
😊You are the best! You are my very favorite artist too. You are a great friend!! ❤
I LOVE your Uncut series it’s like we’re just hanging there with you. 💜💜💜
Hi Barbara. I’m so glad that you are feeling better. I pray that you make a full recovery from breaking your rib. I hope you know that we would still be here if you needed a vacation or time off. It’s completely understandable. You are a gift to many of us and your well-being matters. So don’t stress my friend. Have a wonderful day. 😊❤
Thanks so much for your kind words! ❤️
I love your longer 'uncut' videos. Fun to craft along and not have to worry about missing a particular technique you are teaching us!
I love these uncut video's. Thank you.
Regarding the fear of not having any content: You probably think that you will lose viewers and/or subscribers, but I believe that is false. I am so appreciative of the hard work you put in for our viewing pleasure. Trust me, I'm not going anywhere! I'm preparing my garden seedlings 🌱 so I'll be busy with that - why not take that vacation? You wouldn't have to go far for a vacation reset. Enjoy !!
Thank you for your kind words! ❤️
I rarely miss one of your videos, but don't often on anyone's channel. I always enjoy your videos; you provide such a variety. I'm amazed & impressed with your unique, eclectic style. I've gotten so many ideas & tips from you. Thank you for sharing with us.
Aaaaw thank you! ❤️
Love those “raw - uncut videos”, it really feels like we are crafting together. We really exercise our listening skills without interrupting each other since we cant respond immediatly 😂 I was doing some stitching on paper while watching your video. Yellow gold and rose gold are my “go to” colors for splattering.
This is such a wonderful little journal. Glad to see it again. I do food prep and keep meals for work in my freezer. My health journey became serious for me about 2 years ago. I was tired of battling chronic joint pain. I have struggled with kidney stones for almost 20 years. I started eating low oxalate and the weight peeled off and the joint pain went away. I haven’t felt this good in years! My motivation to keep to this new way of eating (WOE) is to keep the joint pain away. I think each person has to find their individual health plan that works for them and it doesn’t always include a medical person. I hope you soon get a relaxing vacation and come back re-energized! Have a blessed day!
Thank you! I’m so happy you found your way! ❤️
I love these uncut videos. Hope you get a great vacation. Enjoy! 🏖️
I love this size of jjournal, sooo cute. How about creating a journal series inspired by “eras” example: 50’s 60’s 70’s, 80’s 90’s, 00s etc.?
Is there a video of you making the small journal? I’m really enjoying your UNCUT videos! You are fun to listen to and hang out with💗

Hi Barbara. I love watching you work in this little journal. I watched how you made it. I love the chatty vibe of this series. Great to craft along (I'm busy making ephemera for a journal I plan for a friend). Thanks for being such good company 🌼💛
❤ a lovely video sweetie. It's so nice to see you just craft, low key, and then as a bonus you tell us all of these fun & heartwarming things. ❤
Sounds like you really need a break - maybe that is why you keep getting colds. Yes I agree a beach break may be just what you need. thank you for posting this type of video. I have been crafting along by cutting out floral images from a herbal book - I cut out 54 images which makes a wonderful stash.
Love this little gem! It's so beautiful. I always love hearing about your family traditions. Once again, I had to pause and pull up some maps of all those exotic locations! All of those beautiful coastal locations look so tempting. LOVE a beach vaca!!!
I love this journal when you work in it. I need to go back and rewatch the how to make it video. ...
Love your videos so much. You are so calming.
Bonsoir 😊
J'adore 🥰 et j kiffe 🥰 totalement ce que vous proposez en tuto 😁.
Merci beaucoup 😊.
J'apprécie votre voix et vos rires 😁 ça fait plaisir dans ce monde de fou 😊.
Hallo Barbara, beach and nothing else I think it's the best thing to recharge the battery. unplugging every now and then is necessary. when you return to everyday life you see things from a different point of view
Barbara, video idea: record a bit on your vacation to show us! Some of us will never have the chance to go the places you go
That is a great idea ! I enjoy travel journaling so would love to see a video of how you use the bits and pieces you collect on your holiday.
Love spending time together in my messy junk room!
Love this journal and the talk of your health struggles. It’s so frustrating when you get on the right path and then something gets in your way. Hang in there. Don’t worry about going away for a couple of weeks. We’ll be here when you get back. 🤗🇨🇦🤗
Thank you! ❤️
Thanks again for dephemerember!!! It inspired me to try new things, including FINALLY stepping out of my comfort zone and creating my TH-cam channel. But the best was making new friends. The #scrappy8 girls are a blessing.
I love these videos, have fun on your vacation!
Even tho your style is totally different to mine, I love your creative style and videos, Barbara. Currently I am making a journal called Antique Bazaar. I use mostly paper for my journals. 😊 Get well soon. 🥰
Thanks Barbara. I’m on the tail end of a cold too. Enjoy some vacation time. 😊
Thank you and I hope you recover fully soon! ❤️
I really enjoy watching you work on that journa,l I watched the beginning of it when you were at the workshop was it at a museum I have forgotten.
Thank you! It was at an art retreat 😊
Hello Barbara, these videos are my favorite, I love the bright colours on your pages.
My style changed a lot, when I look at the old pages I don't like what I'm seeing, it's a good idea to put everything in one journal. ❤❤❤
I prepare my breakfast and lunch for work in the evenings, I start working at 8.00am, I wake up at 4.30am, after 6.00am it's hard to find a parking and I don't have time to eat breakfast at home so I do that at work. I don't have a particular diet, I just control my portions, timings, chocolate especially😊😊😊 and do youtube pilates. I don't eat out, I always think I can make it myself and even more better.
As for the washing machine noise for me personally you shouldn't apologize, usually I always watch you creating while I'm doing the laundry, I find it very relaxing.
Never give up for your health and safety Barbara!!!
b🦋
Thanks for your kind feedback and for sharing! ❤️
Loved this uncut video. No, I didn't journal along with you. I just watched you create. I feel relaxed as you dig through all your bits and bobs containers looking for the perfect bit or bob😊. Loved it. Thank you for sharing with us.
Thank YOU for watching! ❤️
So happy to hear and see you again 💕🇺🇸
❤ another great video. Thank you.
I love the cover on this little Journal. I like the outside piece that wraps around the main cover. I like using my Grandkids shirts that they’ve outgrown for the fabric. Right now I have 2 shirts. Similar fabric. Both are a large gingham print. One is black and white. The other is teal, white and a small black stripe. I have black lace, white lace and I just found some teal lace. So now I’m thinking it would be so cute to put a topper around the black and white base. I love this free and easy series. I hope you and your hubby have a great, relaxing vacation. You deserve it.
Edit: I forgot to tell you, I started watching you when your tube of Van Gogh gold was completely full. Its EMPTY!! I hope Action or wherever you get it from still carries it. Lol
Thank you sweetie! ❤️
Love spending time with you! If I lived near you, I would volunteer one afternoon a week to help you so you didn't feel as overwhelmed. I don't even know if that is practical...like if there is even anything another person could do for an artist. It would also be good for me and would inspire me.❤
That’s so kind of you! ❤️
If you need a vacation, it should be a priority. Your physical and mental health are important to those of us who have come to love you. Don’t worry - your army of admirers will still be here, even if you miss posting a video or two. We’ll just be more eager for your return. 😊 Please take care - you are the best provider of Junk Journal content on YT, and we don’t want to lose you. ❤️
Aaaaaw how sweet are you! ❤️❤️❤️
Love this cute little journal. As always I keep learning new techniques for working in my own jj. Thanks for all the inspiration Barbara. Would love to do a paper/embellishment swap with others (if this is something possible in the future)?? Like you said - it's always more fun to use other people's euphemera rather than your own. Stay healthy!
Hi Pauline! I’d love to do a swap with others too.
Nice to know there are others that would be interested. @@allisonjames2923 Not sure how this could be done? Any ideas??
🎉🎉🎉neben den typischen Gold, Weiss und Schwarz, nehme ich gerne rot und grün in der Weihnachtszeit...blau und grün im Sommer😊schönes Wochenende und liebe Grüße Petra ❤️
Thank you Barbara you’re so fun to watch. Staying fit can be fun if you do things you like to do. Keep moving eat a good healthy balanced diet no gimmicks small portions stay away from sugar and sodium. Walk every day. And get some hand weights. Yoga is good too. 💕🌸💕
I totally agree with you about "mass makes" - when I need something for a journal, I want to make it then, so that I can choose exactly what I want to use so it "matches" and so that it fits the space I need to fill...
You're videos and chats are the best !
I was working on a slow stitch piece while watching. Sorry about your health challenges, I can relate. I recently had carpal tunnel surgury and while still healing, my hand is working better than before when it was actually interfering with my ability to do art. Have a wonderful vacation and don't worry about us. I am sure most of your followers wn't disappear if you miss a few weeks! I know I won't. Self care is what keepsyou in the game, better to rest when you need to than burn out and quit (and I recall you saying that this has happened to you in the past!)
Thank you for your kind words! I wish you all the best for healing! ❤️🩹
Hi Barbara. I meal prep weekly. On Sunday prepare a meal for Sunday through Wednesday. Thursday I will another meal, an easy one to get through til the next Sunday. I don’t do macros. But I find if I make 2 main meals I can have enough leftovers. I do have individual containers. I sometimes use them and sometimes don’t, depending on what I make. I do it because I work from home and it makes it so much easier for me during the work week. I almost always have salad fixings and swap lunches and dinners if I need a change. Sometimes I add the protein to my salad too.
You go, girl! 💪🏼😊❤️
Another great video! Really enjoyed watching how you use your scraps and create pretty pages. Thanks for sharing.
Glad the bone density is being done, I commented about that after you told us about your rib. Also, building muscle to support your bones will be a life long journey. Food prep? I grow my own veggies, lettuce and herbs. There is a drying process to preserve and freezing but worth the extra effort. Oh ya!! Our meal time is always prepped. We vary rarely eat out, and we do not eat fast food. Also watch salt intake and drink more water for gut and joint health and muscles nned water!. Dont let people tell you that any of your strategic planning of food intake is stressful!!!! You will find your routine, Barbara and it will enhance your life, not stress you.Everything you are doing will benefit you. Keep it up, these temporary bumps in the road will pass! Thank you for sharing your health journey. Have a good lunch, love this little journal!❤Jeannie 😊
Thanks so much! I appreciate your encouragement! ❤️
Another lovely hangout session Barbara. Maybe you & Luise could do a leftover Dephemerember scraps challenge with each other as a video 🤔 There are some beautiful scraps in there. Would love to get my paws on that basket lol
Thanks for the interesting idea, Carrie! 🥰
I am working on making fabric ruffles while watching!
Fun craft session!
Hi Barbara, it makes me feel good when I hear that even you as a professional had to seek high and low for the right glues. It is either to weak, or stinky, or makes the paper all soggy and wrinkly, no matter how little you use. I think I have finally won, but sure am going to see what you recommend. Do not forget to rest more. your body is run down, needs a new path of adventurous exercise and healthy eating. Take care, what would we all do without you. 🌈🌹🌻☺
I keep a record everyday. I enter each meal with total calories, macros for protein, carbs, fat. I try for each meal to be 40% protein, 35% carbs, and 25% fat. Keeping the record manually works for me.
Good luck!
And l love your videos, no matter what you are doing! 💖
Thank you and I’m very impressed! ❤️👍🏻
So Beautiful and colorful
I have a piece of that braille paper from luise too!!!!!! I soooo agree, having scraps from someone else, is inspiring and brings all the good feelings! I am ALWAYS up for trading scraps
I really enjoy these uncut videos! Your little journal is so cute! In answer to your question, I most often do white splatters, but I bought some gold paint so I will be trying that out soon!😊 I hope you have so much fun on your trip and get some really nice rest!❤❤
Thanks! Let me know how you feel about the gold splatters 😊
Another comment ... I am always crafting with you, not necessarily following a tutorial but just the sound of you, Rachel at Roxy Creations or Natasha's voice, at Treasure Books. I currently have four covers to make. I leave them to the end, my signatures are done, ephemera, journal cards ... all of it. I am inspired by the 3 of you!! Each of you bring something special to the table.
Easter tradition: my mom made my sister and I ( the youngest in family of 8 kids, with my twin brother) an Easter outfit. She was an excellent seamstress, cook, parent and worked hard on our farm. She was a woman I have always admired!❤ I have answered most of your questions???😂 😊
Thank you for your kind feedback and for sharing! ❤️
I love these uncut videos. Not only do they remind you of things you've done in the past, you remind me. I forgot about the corner tucks with a fold and I want to make some punches with fabric behind them. It's such a great way to use fabric scraps. While I was watching you this evening I was printing and cutting out photos for some memory keeping pages in my journal so I suppose I was crafting beside you, sort of. Easter traditions when I was a little girl always included a new dress and new, white patent leather shoes. My parents always hid the Easter baskets (always with See's candy) and then we would have Easter dinner with our extended family. Now, we go to church and then drive down to spend the day with our grandkids. It's all festive and fueled by chocolate!
Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Liebe Barbara! Ich schaue jedes Deiner Videos und liebe alle so sehr! Du bist eine riesige Inspirationsquelle, aber genauso auch eine Entertainerin - ich liebe es, Dir zuzuhören und zu schauen. Bitte nimm Dir Deinen Urlaub, so wie Du ihn brauchst! Auch wenn Du vier oder acht Wochen kein Video postest bin ich mir einhundert Prozent sicher, dass wir Dir alle erhalten bleiben und uns riesig auf Dein nächstes Video freuen werden! 🫶🏻💕
Ich danke dir für dein nettes Feedback, liebe Susi! ❤️
Hi! I’m making an art journal for my mother-in-law. I have book covers 9x12 and will use loose rings to bind it so she can change to larger rings as her journal grows. I’m including lots of inspiration and prompts. My challenge is to fill the huge pages, so wish me luck! 😊
You got this! 💪🏼😊❤️
When you said the die cut needed something else, I was sending you thoughts of "gold splatters!" and you heard me!
Thanks for that! 😃❤️
Hi Barbara ... I had a giggle at " Girl that ship has sailed " ... I watch all your videos and some even more than once ... I look forward to each one and got spoiled in December when I could watch you almost every day. What I have learned from you is invaluable ! Here is a suggestion for a future video ... Gesso ... types, uses and examples of how you use it. I haven't used it before but are very curious to start experimenting with it but don't know enough yet.
I hope you get better soon and girl, make plans for a nice vacation with relaxation ... you need it.
Thanks so much for your support and kind words! ❤️ Let me think about the gesso video 😊
I hope you feel better soon. 💗 Throw out that ' be gratful' lol😅 Im sorry you don't celebrate Easter anymore as there is so much joy in knowing Our Savior died for our sins and has conquered death once for all! To hear the Hallujah chorus sung with the brass and booming drums ( my favorite) All the beautiful music 🎶 is so fulfilling for the soul ❤. Of course there are sweet chocolates. My sister cooked a delicious meal of ham, mashed potatoes with butter and milk, green bean vegetables 😋💖 🙏 I was inspired to make a special Easter paper craft happy mail gift too. All the best Barbara 💞🇨🇦
I agree completely! ❤
Best video, Barbara! I hate u broke a rib! Don't push yourself too hard, gotta rest to heal! You just come on to USA, and we will go to Disney World. We just got back and loved it! It was definitely not a restful trip, but it was sooo fun. They had topiaries of all the characters. I filled my phone up w pics! I did weight watchers a few years ago. I lost 50 lbs. Tracking was key! Meal prepping also helped tremendously. When I went out to eat, I normally got some type of salmon with a veggie, or just made that my cheat day. I live for your "Oh no" moments. Thank you so much for sharing such a personal video with us. I know u don't know me, but I am your friend in my heart! Hope u feel better and get a relaxing beach vacation w ur hubby❤❤❤
Thanks so much for sharing and your kind words! ❤️
Love these relaxed videos....just enjoying pretty papers. I really loved the tiny journals hope you get a chance to complete them😊 Sorry about your broken rib and all the interruptions in your training schedule but you will get back to it when you are healed. I also hope your bone density tests yields positive results. Have a blessed and beautiful day ☀️🌷💛🧡
Thank you so much! ❤️
I forgot about your question about food. I do a combination of portion control, calorie counting, and carb counting. Also watching the sodium intake. We lost my mom the end of 2019, then Covid came and closed CA for a year, and then we moved to Texas which, at the time, was a little depressing. Being a stress eater I put on over 50 lbs. Over the past year I have taken off 31 pounds and will continue to work on the next 20. It's slow but slow stays away. On vacation I eat carefully for two days and then take a day off! It's vacation after all! I admire your determination. Keep going!
You rock! You should be so proud! ❤️
Lovely! 🤩🤩🤩 I’m so lucky that I don’t have to cook, my hubby is the chef here. If I was on my own and had to cook, I would probably prepare in advance. I stopped eating added sugar since September. I was addicted, but once it was set in my mind, it wasn’t even difficult. Sometimes I craft along with you and sometimes I just watch and enjoy the video. Hope you feel better and your rib will be healed soon. ❤
Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Hi Barbara, making an environmental jj at the moment. Working on a oil-rig belly band today.
That sounds super interesting!
Wow, very interesting!
This video gave me a loooooot of ideas, again ❤
Would you please tell me how to make the little stars in paper that we can see in your basket ? (The basket where you found the numbers)
Thanks a lot 🙏
Thanks. I could not find my own video, but here is a tutorial: th-cam.com/video/ht5ti_yoZcs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=87YgZiLBwONzvVeG
I love these uncut videos. And, we get to hear about what's going on in your life too. 😊
Everyone needs to find their own way in figuring out their fitness journey, and you seem to be on track with yours! 😊
Meal prepping is something I did before and it's my plan to start again, since it's super handy to have lunch ready when you come home from work (I'm currently working less than part time).
Easter... well, I usually visit my mum and we eat what we traditionally do in Sweden. Until some years ago, she'd go to church, and I'd stay home. Now she watches it on tv instead. We'd take a walk, or several, if the weather is ok. It's usually in April and we can still have snow and cold spells, but this year it was early.
Question nr 3, or 2, I think was if we were crafting beside you, and I just enjoyed the video this time. Been unwell. Still work in that journal I wrote about, so yes, but it's a slow process. Now I'm going to refresh my memory and watch how you assembled this wonderful journal. 😊 And end this long, very long, comment...
Thank you for sharing, Anna and I hope you feel better soon ❤️
@@49dragonflies, thank you. I am...it's been a crappy kind of week, but they do pass, don't they. Looking forward to going back to work tomorrow. Springtime at work is always very busy. I'm working in a Greenhouse. 😊🌱
I hope you'll have a lovely vacation in Egypt with hubby! Rest, sun, good food, wonderful culture and colours, beach, ocean (shark free, of course) and joy. 😊
😊very nice. I do watch what I eat. Generally its no sugar, use stevia, no maltodextrin foods. I never eat out because you never know how the food has been added to, processed, or age of prepackaged. I never buy prepackaged or ready to eat foods or preprepared. I filter my bottled water. Thats just a start in right direction. All natural food vitamins, powders,etc were next. Lol they are premade. My A1c was 6.5 when started.Now its 5.5, so im on right track.I'm afraid I do not exercise. But I do pop up and down alot, keeping busy. You and Luise keep me busy, which is a joy to start creating and learning techniques. Be safe, take care. The bread i eat i make myself. Its not a real sour dough. But i do ferment the dough in the refrig. Before i cook it. Ive started freezing the cooked bread, then toast it before eat. I heard that is better for you. Pasta, rice, potato, breads, better as it becomes resistant starches and feeds good bacterias in gut. I also add apple cider vinegar to my bread dough. If i add tsp. yeast, i then add tsp. of acv. Best flavor of bread for my tastes, is 3 days fermented. But use it any time. I got the recipe from Marys Nest video. A Busy Mothers Sour Dough Secret.or something like that title. I only use organic flour to stay away from pesticides. Take care.its the only time i use sugar, which i use sucanat sugar.lol
All the best for your continued health journey! ❤️
Barbara: I’m double your age and wisdom does set in. When? I have no idea. From what I heard, there is something always coming up for you to stop your personal training. Right there is what I call an alert. Why? Why is that happening? I have no idea, but maybe you do.
Oh, of course your collaging is just so wonderful. Love it! Carol from California
Thanks Carol! I wish I knew…..
Barbara: just acknowledging it, is sufficient for now. It will come to you when you’re ready to know. Carol
❤
❄️🇨🇦❄️❤️
It’s so crazy listening to Europeans going on vacation. In America if you go out of the country it’s a huge expense and huge trip. And you guys can pop anywhere but here easily. I get so jealous! It’s like the world is open to yall. All we have is America. Most have never left the country. Europeans can go everywhere. Grrrrrr!
But hey don’t worry about your videos. Nobody is going to go anywhere. We are gonna wait right here for you and you’ll be so happy and relaxed and I dare say inspired when you return! Just take your vacation and unwind with the hubby and reconnect and then worry about your videos and stuff when you get back. That’s my best advice and 100% hope that you take this advice. 🎉🎉❤❤❤
Thank you! I appreciate your kind feedback! ❤️
Crafting along today. I do not food prep. I am almost 60, and I can’t even begin to tell you how much money, time,
energy and more money I put into trying to lose weight and gain muscle. I have always been heavyset. I finally found small things that help me and slowly added, subtracted or changed. Nothing else was sustainable for me. For instance, I am the kind of person who needs to keep my diet/exercise plans to myself. I don’t talk about it because I’m tired of talking about it for so many years. 😂 But also because my motivation can only come from within. It is the kind of person I am. However, my best friend is the kind of person who has to constantly be talking about it. It’s her way of keeping herself accountable. She has done so good on programs like Weight Watchers. She needs cheerleaders all around her. She needs someone to mention, hey, is that on your diet? I guess what I’m saying is figure out what you need to be successful. And if meal prep works for you, then it will the most awesome thing for you to do. It will become a habit or routine that will help you for the rest of your life. Anyway, I do hope you start to feel better, again! And remember, the most important thing is that you are beautiful inside and out! Hugs ❤️🤗
Aaaaw thank you for your kind words and encouragement! I’m happy you have found a way that works for you! ❤️
I’m currently working on backgrounds for a new sketchbook. While we’d love to have you come to the USA, it’s probably better you decided not to come in an election year. Things are already heating up and people are just getting crazy. Anyway, when you do come, you should do a meet and greet! That would be so much fun! Don’t stress, just enjoy your trip. If we have to miss a few videos or a kit so you can relax and regroup we’ll be okay. We have over 1,000 videos to watch and lots of kits to play with until you get back from vacay, and we’ll still be here when you get back. It’s better to take a break now than to get burned out and not be able to make videos, etc. for an unknown amount of time.
Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤️
I would have chosen the gypsy soul - she had that element/look about her - like she was a palm reader - or did readings.
Looove this videos 🙏🥰🥰 so chilled and easy going 🥰 can we make a journal for this purpose and do the journey together?
I don’t believe that we can exercise a muscle that is consistent in a tight move. We got to relax the muscle to make it stronger. So relaxing holiday sounds like a great idea 👏🥳🥰 Hope you feel better soon dear ❤️🥰🙏 lots of love from arctic Norway 😊🌸🌼🌼☘️🌺
Working on a small master board.
O dear, lots of questions….. next time please put them too in the description box…. 🥴🤣 Anyway seems you are still in conflict with perfection - I know that struggle and overcame it a bit by small daily pages in a way throwing some papers and glue and finishing with lots of purple paint, feeling happy at the end. Vacation: I wish hubby and I could have a last one but no traveling is to much for him. Instead we looking photo albums of all strange trips we made. Consider a train to the Netherlands and visiting the flower parades and flower gardens full with tulips etc……. Right take care of your health first and leave us a week or so without a video, makes us more appreciating…..
Hi .Yes the mass making doesn't work for me either. My style changes with every journal ,plus I get out paper and and use every little piece up. I am a bit too organised and like co-ordinated pieces. My plan is to try and make a grungy, messy junk journal, a freer piece. Will see if it is possible for me. Can only try. Thanks for the videos.
Have fun experimenting with that style! ❤️😊
Driving in Egypt is insane! LOL! They do not follow any rules!
Yup! 😬
Hi Barbara I cannot seem to find the video linked which shows how you made this journal. What am I missing?
Here you go: th-cam.com/video/oFGL-nfPz2g/w-d-xo.htmlsi=r7Cx9eD7nR14M39I
I have just started recently mass making ephemera, but I'm not a big fan of it because I ;ike to make from start to finish for a specific theme or book.
Sweetie are you ok? You don't sound good 🤗🤗🤗. What a cute way to us negative space 😍 I have some stashed somewhere. Yes, I have bits everywhere🙈. Yes finding your happy glues is definitely a process! Lol he's so CUUUTE 😍lol that ship definitely sailed. My kids are older, we just give a gift and some eggs to our 25 year old and send money for our granddaughter. She gets so much chocolate and an egg hunt so she enjoys having money to spend (little diva is 4 so it's usually rainbow unicorns glitter wellies etc 😄). We used to decorate boiled eggs, granddaughter does now. We have a tradition here where you roll them downhill and if yours doesn't break you go on to the next round. 😄 sounds silly explaining it now 🙊. Yes, other people's scraps look much more interesting! Scrap swap is cool. Yes, it'll be Christmas again soon 😄. I'm making a journal from leftover witchy stuff, one from gift bags and my third digital kit which I'm loving. Gold splatters for me since I first saw you do it! I knew you didn't sound right, I hope you feel better soon🤗🤗🤗. You could maybe holiday vlog instead of worrying about craft content? Showing how beautiful Egypt is maybe? I enjoyed seeing your photos last time. I love Egypt. Or take a break, we'll miss you but you're more important! I miss exercise, I was a bit obsessed🙊. Oh bone density? Fingers crossed! Your ankle was 2 years ago ?😱. I do fruit, salads, chicken, fish and slimfast, and really need to start🙈. I used to do an hour of high impact cardio (Ozrobics was fun) and half an hour muscle work every day. Oh seams is a fab idea 💡👏👏👏. Hope you feel better soon sweetie 🤗. Tfs and have a great day 💖💖💖
Thanks for sharing sweetie! I’m ok! ❤️
Big hugs 🤗. Lol also I meant 15 year old is my youngest. Putting a decade on myself 😜
We spend time together and have a late lunch as we are mostly adults but we like to celebrate the resurrection of Christ as a family now granddaughter gets present or a Easter Basket. Love your tiny journal and the additional cuteness your adding.
Omg do NOT go to Florida. That place is the pits. I am not even kidding. Not a good place to be right now.
Liebe Barbara, bitte mach dir nicht so einen riesigen Stress, wegen deiner Videos. Ganz ehrlich, ich glaube jede (r) hier in deiner Community, hätte vollstes Verständnis, wenn du mal 14 Tage gar kein Video sendest. Wie jeder Mensch hast du doch ein Recht auf Urlaub und Freizeit. Ich finde nicht, dass du uns 52 Wochen im Jahr mehrmals die Woche "füttern" mußt. Und schon gar nicht wenn es Stress bedeutet. Auch keinen mentalen Stress. Du gibst, du schenkst uns allen hier so viel, dafür kann man gar nicht dankbar genug sein. Du bist ein Mensch und kein KI, gottseidank. Und dann ist da auch noch deine Rippe, nimm dir die Zeit und Ruhe, damit sie heilen kann. Das mit der Esserei und dem Sport hört sich für mich grausig stressig an und so spassfrei. Aber da ist jeder anders und sollte sich für seinen Weg entscheiden. Disziplin ist toll, aber für so Perfektionisten wie dich vielleicht auch manchmal kontraproduktiv. Trau dich, lass alle Fünfe einfach mal gerade sein, lass die Beine und Seele baumeln, die Gedanken und Träume schwingen. Sei einer deiner unzähligen Schmetterlinge❤ Sway Babe sway... With hugs Ute
Ich danke dir für dein Feedback, liebe Ute! ❤️
