I have a 50 year old stamp collection from when I was a kid and I recognized the Italian and Spanish stamps all these years later. I got excited to see what you'd do because I still tear them off mail. Thanks so much for the great ideas.
Great memories for me too. Those stamps came up.
Haven't looked in there for years.
Happy memories.
Enjoy..Camille 🇦🇺 oz
I’m tickled pink that you mentioned my name 😅 and so glad I inspired you for a change x
Fellow stamp collector- I too am a stamp hag! Circa 1967. Love these ideas and totally doing the stamp edging.📬
I got to tell you ....your creativeness with your sidetracked thoughts but then bringing yourself back to be focused.....
Along with your wonderful humor and those precious animals....
They bring such a smile and a laugh to my face....
Don't ever stop.... you're amazing🍁🙂😀😂❤😀😂🙂🍁....and, BELIEVE me...I get it....
Yep, in school....I was called the "absent minded professor".......maybe, I was dreaming about the paper projects I would attempt one day....inspired by you😀.....
"Now, where did I put those scissors?"......
As you compiled the edge of paper with stamps, you stated that it was like a trip through time. I then thought immediately of Dr. Who and his various touchdowns in time. I love stamps too.
How cool is that!
What great ideas for stamps. My husband’s father was in the Navy and sent home stamps from around the world. I have a lot to play with! Good morning Sunshine! Tyfs! ~~hugs~~
OMG what a stamp collection.
The dog is so cute 😃
I've been using old postage for a few years ... thanks for the fresh ideas!
Pam, I remember the monthly makeup kits after you mentioned it, I used to get them….too funny!
I love stamps! I used a brown paper envelope strip, stuck 0ld stamps on it the way you did the edge of the page, and made a belly band. I put some old postcards under it from the 1940'sv that I got at and estate sale. LOVED it. I love the other ways you used them. Thanks for always making us look at things differently.
Sybil, love the idea of a belly band!
I had to look to see if my iPad was set to view at a faster than normal playback speed. My brain needs slower talking but I can tell how excited you were about using the stamps. Yes postage stamps ARE art! yay!🦌💌❤️📚
On my phone I can change the playback speed, 3 buttons upper right
Hi how are you ?
You have what I call an eccentric personality. I’m the same way, and I love ! I chuckle at all your weird comments and noises and know that some people just don’t get it. But I do. I’ve been watching you for a couple weeks now and by doing so, has forced me to start thinking outside the box more. And I surprise myself, when I get to the finished product, I really think it’s kinda cool. But at the same time, scary. I’m concrete sequential not abstract random so it’s been a journey. Anyway, I love your creativity and openness. Thank you for making a simple girl smile during her day.
I have a large stash of postage stamps from childhood, and I am thinking of scanning them in a transparent folder for copying. These folders have a hinge on one edge that helps keep things in place while moving them from desk to scanner. By not fixing the stamps to paper, I can arrange groups by color or arrange them by theme. I did one experiment laying the transparent folder over a piece of graph paper to help with alignment and leaving enough space for cutting with a perforation scissor. Scanning them in different arrangements has worked, and printing them on white paper gives me that liTtle edge of white if I want it, if they are not affixed to anything, my understanding growing up was that a legible cancellation mark made stamps more valuable, but I am not sure how true that is.
Good idea, thanks
Great idea to scan the old stamps!
Perfect idea! With a world of digitising, maybe we'll see less and less of original stamps. Let's save our past and enjoy going forward. Those colours together make it a wonderful project. Thanks Pam.
I love stamps too! I stay at home to. Because of you I started watching Junk Journals videos and started my own for fun a couple of months ago! I just love it! Thank you so very much!
So glad you shared your postage stamp ideas! Thank you.
🎉so fun to craft with you!❤
Awesome as always, to those who may read this I have gotten one of Pam’s packets of ephemera vintage and such…. IT is so worth it. I love mine an am excited each time I use it. Thanks Pam.
Fun with stamping without inky finger tips🤣 Thanks again Pam😍
Wow , I'm here now ,so sorry I slept in ,hello Sonny an my sweetie Holly, yes Pam an you as well, stay safe an have a great day.🤗🐾🐾😎
THANK YOU PAM FOR THE PRINT AND SHIPS!!! I just made my first purchase of 10 digitals, I'm so excited to get to use them, I always wanted to use your digitals and now I can, Thanks again!
Great fun and so relaxing! Brings back memories of my childhood. To have all those old stamps now......oh well, use what we have, right??? 🥰
I made some stamp clusters last night and LOVED it!!!!!
That Antarctic Treaty stamp is very interesting
🙋♀️ from Australia. Glad one of our stamps brought you a moment of joy 😁 Since you bring us so much with your chirpy happy creative videos
Ha! I collect stamps also, since i was a kid, because they are little works of art. Another wonderful video. Thanks Pam! ❤️ to Sunny! 💙
Love hearing friend Holly in the background ❤️ i sent $2 to a company that had an add in a magazine (or bulk sales junk mail) for a lot of cancelled stamps. It was an introductory offer and they send me reminders once in a while. You can specify what kind you want: history, nature, foreign, commemorative, etc. They're in New England somewhere.
Good Morning Pam! Thank you for the tips! So fun, so easy, and what an artful way to use up all those stamps! I too, have been collecting stamps, but have never used them. Now I will be incorporating them into my journal! I love how you do things… its kinda like a “why didn’t I think of that” moment! You are so inspiring! Thank you!😁
Hi how are you doing today
Stamps are such perfect little pieces of art...and you can 'travel' the world, in no time at all!!
I have loads of stamps, which I have used in my journal making 😉 they give an add spot of color, a little culture and dimensions! I really like the Hungarian, Magyar Posta stamps, they are truly amazing!!
Thanks Pam, hi Sunny Buns! 👋
hello from Denmark 🌸 🌱
Hi hope you're having a good time today ☺
GREAT IDEAS-TFS-HUGS/BLESSINGS
Awesomeness 🤩🤩🤩🤩Thanks Pam ❤️
So many great ideas for stamps. Thank you so much for sharing.
I just LOVE all your wonderful ideas and creativity! you are so awesome! thanks Pam!
Oh, man! I am drooling over your huge drawer of postage stamps!! Lovely. Thanks for these ideas.
Yep, I found a pile in an antique mall a while back...they were so inexpensive and I knew they held worlds of possibilities! I bought them all...guilty as charged ;)
@@ThePaperOutpost Good for you!!
I don’t know what was funnier...Sunny with wood chips in his little beard or you with that drawer of stamps. There is probably a thousand stamps in there. 🙀. I have maybe 20 stamps to my name 🤣😂😝. I love the use of them on the edge of the page...awesome. ❤️🥰
Thanks beautiful you rock of awesomeness. I enjoyed hanging out with you this morning. Have a blessed day. 🧡🌻🤗🌞💜👍🌟❤🌸🌹💗
FINALLY! The mystery has been solved and I now know where to get those elusive glassine envelopes!! 😂😂😬🤭 I paused the video (sorry! 😬😆😉) got on eBay and bought some right away… they should be here in 5 days! 😂😂😂🤦🏼♀️🙊 ✉️ THANK YOU Pam🙏🏻
Good Morning Pam ❤️
Great idea :)
Thank you !
I love using stamps. I think pieces of the inside of a privacy envelope would make a good addition.
LOL Hogtown is what Gainesville used to be called.
Fun ideas! Thanks!
Su
Great idea. Love it. Thank you for sharing.
Love stamps. Started cutting them off old junk mail a while back thanks to your idea. TFS
Thank you for another great idea!
I love this!!
So fun 😆! I have a bunch of stamps from junk mail ! Thank you for sharing the ideas💕😁!
what a cute cute doggie! I love stamps too. great vid.🦌💌❤️📚
Cool!....sweet!.......😻
I just placed a order from Amazon.Can’t wait to PLAY !!!
👏👏I did a 2 page spread of stamps in my junk journal!! Love seeing from where they came from.🤗
I love stamps too! So rich with history on a tiny canvas!!
So fun 😍❤️ TFS 😘😘😘😘😘
Love the use of stamps. Hope your week is going well big hugs to you and Sunny with all his friends. ❤️❤️
Can’t believe the stamps you have - wow - neat ideas, thanks..
Hello Pam, so wonderful to see and hear you, as always. Yeah, I have oldish postage stamps, probably not from another country, but that's okay. I have in the past, bought a couple of different stamp set sheets - one of Marilyn Monroe and one of James Dean. So far I'm keeping those as collectables, not like anyone would buy for collector price. Anyway thank you and your Facebook group friends for these awesome ideas. I pray that you are doing well. Take care and God bless you and yours. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas
I liked the edge page trim with the stamps! I do love using postage stamps in my Junk Journals! They’re great on ephemera, too! 😃
I know this was filmed almost a year ago, but I thought I would drop a 'note" in here. I bought some markers/pens at the Dollar Tree that I believe are similar to the Gelato's you are using. They are called "Chalk Writer" by Craft Decor. I don't have Gelato's, seen these and thought I would give them a try, and I really like them a lot. I have them in Gold, Silver, Purple, Blue, Green, and Pink. They are NOT like chalk but are creamy and spreadable like the Gelatos. I just thought I would throw that out there (for anyone who might be interested) and they won't rub off once they're dry.
Great Idea!!😊
I just went through my makeup draw recently and pulled out some old powered makeup to use in my junk journal. 😊
That was cool. Thank you for sharing 🌻🏵🌼💐🧁
You are very inspirational, love your energy!
LOVE this Pam and inspirational person! I have stamps that never seem to make their way put of where they live, but I sense a road trip for them to the wwe world of JJ land!
And Pam! Yes please to the makeup again! Love you girl, MK 😁❤🏜
great job!
Hi Pam!! I love using postage stamps. I even bought authentic used stamped postage stamps from Hobby Lobby. I bought different packages that were different themes. Great video and I love it when Sunshine talks to us! LOL. 🐶
Sweet 👍🏼 I have tons of stamps. 😊
A one more comment,
"INK, AWAAAAAAY!"....
it's always so beautiful. ⚘
Great ideas!! Love the belly band! I have been hoarding stamps for years, so thank you for inspiring me with ways to use them!
Pam, I hah an artist friend who was chosen several years ago to make USA postage stamps. They were an Olympic series. Wish I had some he drew.
Pam, just learned about a way to seal the gelato crayons....go over it with a mat medium and dry.....thought very helpful in a journal usage
Pam: a very creative idea using stamps. Just love it! Carol from California
Love using stamps in my jjs. I would love to see you doing a layout using make up.
Good Morning Pam!
These are great ideas and I have a small collection of vintage stamps, they had train stamps a couple of years ago and I sent some to my dad he loves trains. Thanks to you and Sandy for the inspirations, hope you have a awesome day. Take Care!
Hi how are you doing over there today
I have a bunch of great stamps. Great ideas.tyfx. stay well be blessed.
This is so cute Pam!!
All of my stamps are postage paid 🙄
Our thrift stores don't save them nor do they keep old pictures of people from wayyyy back .
They used to but not anymore. 😪
Love your videos and love Sunny
How did I miss this video? I love gelatos. Once I figured them out it was as if a whole new world opened up! TFS😊🙃
Wow Pam. You are truly psychic. I just started cutting stamps from digital sheets last night and also made some "faux" stamps using pictures from old history books and VOILA! Here's your video! Now I don't have to wonder "What the heck to I do with these now?" Gonna grab the journal I'm making and some lipstick and decorate the journal and myself with reckless abandon!! Happy day to you and Papa and Sunny and Holly and the Love Birds!
Love it!
Thanks!!
Nice!
Great uses. My sister has a tin can covered with old stamps. She uses it as a pencil holder. I have always wanted to make one.
Hello Marilyn hope you're having a good time today
Cute ideas! Continuing to thank you for sharing!
Hi hope you're OK with the experience
I liked it it was fun
Love your ideas!
Looking forward to the makeup video!
Sunny is so cute!
Also, I will be gathering stamps and postage marks from the mail rather than buying stamps right away, although you’re right and they are very inexpensive on eBay. Also I LOVE the idea of the mail challenge!! What a great idea! I’ve challenged myself to use things I already have or packaging to organize my craft room. It’s a challenge but it fun and really satisfying when it works out! 😁
this was very inspiring Pam - thanks for these lovely and fun ideas!!!
Yip I have that stamp too hehe
Pam you're hilarious.
Hi hope you're having a blessed day
Love the spontaneity of these pages! 💕 Great ideas! 🤗 Some of the stamps are so detailed. Amazing! Have a great day.
Mini works of art! I agree Michelle!
Our cat chews the handles on my handbags. Animals. This was fun, thank you lovely from Colleen nz
I love your videos .....and, I say the old ephemera!😀😀😀
Great videos Pam. Best wishes from Australia
Do you have any videos of "altered books"....without taking ALL the pages out, take some out, and create a junk journal from what's left over....there are other TH-cam crafters that have that....but I prefer your videos in general.
I have a bunch of stamps that I found in an antique store...this is super helpful. Thank you and your inspiration crafter!
I’d like to see Pam’s take on that, too. I have an encyclopedia (or few) that I’ve thought would be good for altering.
Fun ideas!! I make faux stamps out of small stickers and things in the magazines that kind of thing. Namaste 🐝🥰🐞🤗🐝
So many responses in my head to this Very Fun Video!!! 😁
First, I LOVE your own journal! We only got a glimpse of it, and it's so wonderful!! I'd love to see more of it! Do you have a video where you made it? Or a flip-through of all those fantastic papers?
When you talk about using makeup: some people actually want their junk journals to last, so makeup won't benefit them, because all the oils that are used to make it stick to your face mean that a) the colors will fade, and b) it will eventually kind of eat through your paper. In junk journaling, that's actually a pretty cool effect. I mostly say this on Bible journaling videos when people talk about using makeup, because so many Bible journalers fully intend to hand those Bibles down to their kids or grandkids.
Okay, more later. 😉
This is one of my favorite videos you've ever made. ❤ (....and why CAN'T cute little doggies just eat the drawer??)
Hi Pam, love the video, your journal looks amazing with all those different pages, colours and textures!
Ready to make one myself soon, hopefully will turn out OK 🤞🏻I have stamps aswell so thanks for the inspiration x
Oh my gosh your collection is amazing I got like ten maybe lol.
Hola pam, me gusta mucho tus videos, son una inspiracion de creatividad y alegria. Besitos para tu puppy, i love it
We receive almost zero junk mail. Maybe it’s regional? My local friends and neighbors also receive junk mail only rarely. Not that I’m complaining. I’ve worked hard to reduce the crap in landfills. Nice to see folks up-cycling..
Your postage drawer looks like mine! Lol…. Fun vid…thank you,
lol ;0)
I'm living like a hermit too
I love your video you tell it like it is have fun fun fun please keep it up
Thank You
Thank you! 😃
