That book seems made for using with that kit! I really can’t wait to see this all the way through. Thanks for sharing how you create your floating spine!
Thank you so much!
This book cover is gorgeous. I´m watching your older videos and I´m learning many things from you, you are a good teacher, thank you☺
Thank you so much!
Ohhh - Your cover is going to be gorgeous Rachel!!! Jarf’s kits are always sooo beautiful!!! I look forward to seeing this journal come together. Hugs, Sharon 🌷💜
Thank you so much!
I am so glad that you showed us your method for doing a hidden spine! I'm right at that point and I did not really know what to do! Your timing couldn't have been better!
Thank you so much!
I think that must be the most awesome old book cover I have ever laid eyes on! With your additions it will be even more glorious. 🥰 Can’t wait to see this journal unfold. I seem to lose my mojo a lot lately and the thing that works best in getting it back is to just start playing around like you did today. 🤗
Oh no, you're work is so beautiful! I hope it comes back soon!!! Thank you so much!
Fun to watch you do a journal from the beginning, Rach! Excited for the rest of the process! Hugs to you! ❤️
Thank you so much!
My mom always had things in Baskets and open boxes on her work tables in her sewing/craft room and I do that too! It must be a mother daughter thing because I am starting to see my gown up daughter and granddaughters do it as well… 😊😊 beautiful book cover for that stunning journal you are making. I love to watch you rescue books and make the beautiful again! Great job! 💖🌸💖
I think you're right must be a mother daughter thing! Thank you so much!
I’m so in love with this cover! Can’t wait to watch the journal making process!
Thank you so much!
Wonderful and helpful to watch you intuitively create from nothing to a perfect picture. TY for sharing how you work with really old beat up book covers too.
Thank you so much!
This is about the video you did sometime back when you told the story of Lulu, your mother-in-law and the frixion pens. Omg I was peeing my pants. I had to share that story with my Lou who’s 14 now, he laughed and laughed then he said “ You know mom she could’ve just put the paper in the freezer and the writing would’ve come back”
I thought you’d love that even if it’s a bit too late to save her work now😁
Oh wow i didn't know that!!! Would have saved my mother in law!! Thank you so much!
What a beautiful beginning of what will be a lovely journal! Can't wait for the rest.
Thank you so much!
So many of my favourite things in this journal cover! Thanks for sharing your process Rachel, it was so very helpful. Hugs and blessings, 🇨🇦🤗❤️
Thank you so much!
Fantastic floating spine Rachel. Thanks for the new inspiration. 💙💙
LOVE everything you do. X x
Thank you so much!
I agree. That picture is lovely and you will make it shine.
Thank you so much!
Ì really love how the cover turned out Rachel, such a lovely kit. The lace on the spin just makes it. Tfs hugs Susanna xx 😊❤🌷
Thank you so much!
just love your old book covers xx
Thank you so much!
Oh, I love that paper!! I like to work with the floating spine, too. The book is beautiful!
Thank you so much!
Loving this cover already - the creams and blues are so soothing. Great lesson on how to prepare the spine for the signatures! Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Recently I thought my mojo was gone but I was still making small things but like you I was totally overwhelmed and I could not focus. I talked it out with a friend and once I knew I just had to many ideas and too many projects going. I started making lists of priorities that needed doing first then I made a list of all the projects and a list for ideas so I could focus better. I also really looked at all the half started things and decided which ones I wanted to do and not do. Remember when you stated your list booklet so you could get things done, maybe go back to that for your crafting so you can focus again.
Laurette Chandler we all can learn from this. Thank you.
I haven't watched this video yet, life keeps happening, but hopefully tomorrow -- but your words are very wise and your advice is sound. I think we all at some point can easily become overwhelmed, because the pile seems so high, how will you ever get through it -- I used to be so organized, but my life was so much busier then, but I had a "to-do" book divided into daily, weekly, monthly -- I tried yearly goals, but it was too far into the future -- and I'd list things first in the weekly column, then break it into daily, and what didn't get done on that day, got moved over to the next -- and what didn't get done that week, got moved over to the monthly section -- I reviewed it every night before I went to bed, and in the morning and would check mid-afternoon -- especially if I was on a deadline for work -- it was the most organized I'd ever been in my life -- maybe you can give us an update down the road a bit and see how your new system is working out -- again, great advice -- thanks so much for sharing -- be well, Patricia
You’re a wise woman, my sister! 😍❤️
yes it's my focus that is array! I am still using my book with lists for each day. My problem is I put so much on my list I can't possibly do it all and then feel like I'm not getting anywhere. I did prioritise and have done a big job so am now feeling a little better. Thank you so much!
I learned this lesson from another video of yours and is how I make my journals! It’s the best and I can’t Thank You enough ❤ Big Hugs! 🤗
Yay, thank you!
Your cover is going to be gorgeous! Love, love, love it.
Thank you so much!
Lovely cover choice. She is a beautiful image.
Thank you so much!
Love your process of the hidden spine, thank you for sharing 😊🌼
Thank you so much!
Yes this old book cover is fabulous.... (Wish i could find one like that here ) Sounds like a good way to work Rach. No good making yourself do something you dont feel like, as i have found it never comes out quite as nice as when you "want" to do something. I just love it already lovey, cant wait to see the next instalment 🥰💖
Thank you so much!
I so love the old book cover this is going to be amazing. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much!
I absolutely love the book you chose and how you put it together. Thank you so very much.
Thank you so much!
Thankyou for making me smile. X
Thank you so much!
Your journal books have a lot of character look at the cover then can’t wait to see what’s inside. It’s beautiful already. X
Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing x such a beautiful cover x x
Thank you so much!
I’m so glad you showed this process. You made it look so much simpler than others I’ve watched. I haven’t attempted it because it looked too complicated.
i had to watch many videos over and over before i understood! Thank you so much!
Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing how you do a hidden spine! I'm so intimidated by the math and the plotting, makes me nervous!. Its a wonderful cover!
Thank you so much!
That is really a beautiful cover. Thanks for sharing the process. ❤️❤️
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Rachel have a great evening xx
Thank you so much!
THis is going to be a gorgeous journal. I am sure of it. Thank you for showing how you make the cloth paper. That seems like it would be very useful and beautiful as a journal element.
Take care!
Looking gorgeous!
Thank you so much!
Your cover is great! Blessings and Hugs 🤗
Thank you so much!
Love it Rachel 😍
Thank you so much!
Oh this is going to be a BEAUTY!! Looking forward to following the progress.
Thank you so much!
The cover is beautiful! The image is pretty. Thanks for sharing 😍🌴
Thank you so much!
Thank you. I think tomorrow is our last day of summer, the temperature drops on Wednesday. I’m heavily into hand stitching currently, quilts and journals are on hold.
You're stitching is beautiful and the weather sounds perfect for it! Thank you so much!
Really a beauty 💕💕💕
Thank you so much!
I'm loving the cover, so beautiful.
Thank you so much!
I love the kit The book cover is perfect. Reminds me of Guenevere from Camelot. Thank you for that tutorial on the hidden spine I have trouble getting it to look right, I may have found my method. .
Thank you so much!
Love it!
Thank you so much!
Very beautiful 😍 just love your creation 🤗
Thank you so much!
Love that book you have selected- I agree, love the falling-apart look to those older books!!
Oh I'm glad to know someone does it similar to me as I always wondered if I was doing it right!!! Thank you so much!
So beautiful!! I wonder if I will ever be brave enough to try doing a spine like that...
I wasn't brave enough fo a long time! Thank you so much!
Beautiful Rachel!!!💗🌺🌸🌼🦋
Thank you so much!
Thanks for the tips for a floating spine.
You're welcome!
Love it
Thank you so much!
I love how the cover will look❤️
Thank you so much!
this was great!!! Can't wait to see the rest of the process!!!
Thank you so much!
Great instructions to get us a great start. Sincere thanks!
Thank you so much!
Lovely cover. Came together very quickly! Good job!
Thank you so much!
I left you a message yesterday, but it didn't post -- maybe I forgot to hit "comment." But the reason I commented was because, I learned something yesterday which absolutely affirms your hypothesis, which you've said for at least the past year, if not before. You nkow how you always comment that paper from books up to and then about the end of the 1800's is much stronger than what came afterward -- well, you are correct. Oh, I guess I should add that this is England. I don't know about other areas of the world, but it would make sense they did something similar. beginning in the late 1700's through late 1800's, more and more people of Britain were becoming educated, could read and write, and enjoyed reading, so there was a great need for more paper for books. There actually was a person called "The Rag Man" -- The Victorians, especially, were keen on recycling clothing. First, the rich gave it to the servants who either passed it on or sold it in open markets specifically for used clothing -- and when the clothing had deteriorated to the point it was not longer wearable/usable, then people like the ragman would purchase the rags and sell them to the paper manufacturing company. Of course, they were filthy dirty and was often "infested" -- they didn't say with what -- so they were put into these huge vats and boiled for hours and hours, and then put into some type of press which squeezed all the water out, and the residue was "paper." The best quality paper was sold to the crown from which they made money -- then in the late 1800's, someone invented the method of making paper from the pulp of trees -- oh, usually the clothing was made from cotton, linen or flax -- wool did not work -- so even though broken down, the cotton, etc. fibers were still stronger than the pages made from the much cheaper method of pulp wood. How about that?
That's so interesting, you are always such a wealth of info!!! Thank you so much!
@@roxycreations679 It's a two-prong process, my girl -- YOU are so knowledgeable about art and art history -- areas I know zip about -- YOU also were the one that discerned the difference in the paper -- I don't have any 1800's paper, and if I did, I'd lock it up in a vault in a swiss bank -- well, maybe not THAT dramatic -- ha -- but I absolutely support you using that paper -- because -- where's it going to end up -- eventually in a landfill somewhere or gathering dust doing no good -- no one's reading it; it's not on display -- the exception, of course, is your 17th century paper, but you scanned it -- and boy, do I love it -- I love love love your tags --- honestly, I do -- but that is the No. 1 digi kit I have -- I printed it on resume paper, regular white paper and tea-dyed paper, and the last was my favorite -- I can't believe how bold the colors still are -- I also support your use of vintage and/or antique fabrics -- I know you save some, which is more than reasonable -- but suppose you just collect it and it gathers dust -- like mine does -- I'm almost finished with my journals -- my new laser printer sucks !! It prints beautifully for about 75 page, then the toner is depleted -- they advertise the color toners should last 1500 pages -- so, having a degree and work experience in the law background, I began researching and lo and behold, they had been slapped with a lawsuit in federal court, and the court demanded they do truthful advertising -- so what they did, they put new toner cartridges in the printer and printed four -- 4 -- pages in black and 4 pages in "color" -- but didn't specific whether they just change the text color, or printed an image in color -- they did four pages, and measured the toner left over, and came up with the 1500 pages -- and in small small print which you can't read, it says -- not based on actual end-user experience -- they lied. I contacted the company, a rep named "Frank" wrote me back, requesting info, which I supplied and have not heard one word back -- I also told him what I found in the legal documents and advised he advance my correspondence to their legal department, because they are also in violation by producing a printer in the US -- don't know about any other company -- but they can't manufacture it in the US which bars another company which produces the same parts -- for ex: HP -- HP's color laser printer, you can buy generic four toner cartridges for less than one is for the Lexmark. The part of my brain which worked for 30 years in the legal industry and retains all of the info gathered over the years is still active and functioning -- the part that tells me where I left my phone does not -- ha -- today is my birthday -- we have perfect weather -- chilly and rainy with T-storms in the forecast. I am doing nothing but catching up on videos and maybe crafting along -- you are No. 1 on my list. Boy, I should have paid attention when people told me turning 35 puts a little hitch in your giddy up !! (that's an American saying from the "wild west" days -- when the poor horses who were worked halfway to death got old and were no longer much use to the owner because it couldn't run, etc. as it did when it was young, they called it have a "hitch in its giddy up," which then translated to when humans turn 35 -- ha.
3rscrafting JTB wow you are a mine of information. Well done on facing up to the printer company. Go girl. 👋🏻from Australia.
@@deborahsmith5036 Thank you for your kind words. As I suspected, I sent in all of their requested information, and have not heard one peep back, even though I've sent several emails asking why -- this is far from being over. I just turned 64 yesterday -- who IS that woman in my mirror? -- ha -- I can't work, so I have days and days of empty hours -- even if I receive no reply, I'm still going to do my best to inform the public about this printer. It prints beautifully, that is not an issue -- it would be a great printer for a small business or a small at-home office which mainly uses the black ink and text, and then occasional use to print out like maybe a chart or something -- but it certainly does not print up to 1500 pages --shame on them !!! In my last email that is exactly what I stated -- shame on you for scamming an old disabled woman !! Ha.
3rscrafting JTB funny I think the same thing with the mirror, in fact I caught myself looking at my mother today.lol (I’m 63). I’m so glad you’re pursuing the printer company, it makes me so wild their false advertising. Unfortunately my health problems limit me pursuing issues like these so when someone can and does go for it I like to send my support, even if it’s just a reply like this. Go get em. 👋🏻
Yes I started a journal for my sister in law and I made the mistake of letting her see the decoupage I did on the inside cover front and back with napkins. I had flowers and birds and bees. She said I like flowers. Now I’m blocked on working on her journal.
Actually it's a very good lesson on how to make this floating spine. You can omit the disclaimer for me!
Thank you so much 😊
Great information. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Really learned a lot from the video
Thank you so much!
Those are stunning images!
Thank you so much!
So very beautiful.
Thank you so much!
This was really good. I love the cover! Well all of it!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful cover Rachel, love Jarf's work! Such a lovely combination of the vintage Blue, crochet lace and gothic lady! (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
Thank you so much!
You are doing those pages justice. So beautiful . The cover-everything. We are watching Hurricane Teddy spread north, possibly getting a tropical storm , lots of wind and rain, at least in Halifax. Other parts of the maritime May see more. Always a surprise , sometimes a shock. Usually if I watch NY /Boston weather, I can get a hint. Incidentally, are you running a dating service on the side ? (Referring to some comments.😄)
Those dating trolls are bombing everyone! Need to report them!
I reported that troll... Sara Butler. Very rude person
Hahaha i report them every time but they still reappear! Thank you so much!
@@penelopemarshall6320 I report them everytime as porno!
@@marydeevaldez51 I don't know her
Weather in Texas has turned cooler with the arrival of Beta on the Texas coast. The rain is coming!
I got the address. Hope to get the happy mail off to you next week!!!
That's great, it's a little cooler here too but quite humid! Thank you so much!
You are so kind!!!!
Thanks for sharing!
:)
Thank you so much!
tfs what would you do to get rid of mold on a cover? love to watch your videos
I'll just wipe it down and leave it to dry. Then I will put some modge podge over it. Thank you so much!
I have no problem making the books and signatures...it's picking a theme so everything matches, the tags and what knots. How do you do that? It makes me feel so lost.
I don't know I just just go with how I feel. I don't need to think much with this kit as it all co-ordinates. Thank you so much!
Do you think the colors would fade if you didn’t spray the paper?
Yes if in sunlight and they could also bleed if a drop of water gets on them.
thanks for your videos on the hidden spine technique rachel. i'm excited to try this. i'm wondering why you cut the corners off of the straw paper/fabric part. won't those corners show up underneath the end papers that get glued over the top of them because the straw paper/fabric piece is so thick?
I cover them up you'll see in the hidden spine video. I cut them off so they don't peek out from under the cover papers. Thank you so much!
love these printed pages. Any web page to get them?
The links are in the description box. Thank you so much!
'store paper', i dont know what that is?
Storing paper means places where you keep your paper.
@@roxycreations679 lol, i understand that, but you said you used 'store paper' and pulled up a piece of brown paper? Just wondering what that was ;) at 13:57 you say you are using store paper for the back.
@@iteeshollow Ah ok it was straw paper! it's a recycled italian paper.
