Thank you! It make me happy to know that you are enjoying my videos. If you go to my Facebook, I have a group there called: JunkJournalDepot, join and I have freebies to download if you like to use any of them. They could possibly be used to decorate any of your projects.

Thank you!

Thank you Pamela. That is what I hope for every outcome, is that one Stay's fueled, or gain some inspiration, and ideas. I have so many time's stale/stuck from a design solution, and it take one inspired idea to get me going; and when I apply it, then the floodgates of ideas coming rushing in, and the only problem then, is not having written them down...So I am doing that now. That's why I have revisited earlier makes made a few years back, and bring them forward for those who are new to this who are limited in supplies, and want to jump in. Than you for supporting my channel by giving me a thumbs up. Hugs

I just can wait to see your Project... I anticipate your makes, because you just add that special touch. That's why I started the Group so that other's can see the variations of other crafty inventions, and be inspired...although, it can be dangerous, because we'll want to go on a shopping spree. Toe Toe Kitty Cat, has an Obsession with Dinosaurs... All thing's animals, and just recently of late, my daughter said she's into Barbies... which... I will have to see-it-to-believe-it, and that will be soon. When I use the Liquitex Matt Medium, it does not leave your projects sticky like Mod Podge does, but I guess with any substrates like that, we have to era on the side of caution when applying the napkins. I usually go 2 inches at a time when applying the napkins so that there are no wrinkling, but even then, it is still like the rolling-of-the-dice, a crap shoot. For me, I have to turn off my overhead fan, and make sure not to breath...lol. On a positive note, it is not thick like Mod Podge. I think it is better than the Ranger multi medium, it drys to quickly, and you can't leave it exposed to air for very long, before it want to gum up. You are hilarious, "you'll wait for me to do it first" LOL. Stay tuned for the next video, its not going to take that long...LOL but it goes along with the recent makes. As always my friend, you are a HOOT, that make me Hauler with Laughter. (( HUGS ))

@@craftsewcute5092 Oh, she will have all kinds of likes and dislikes over the next few years!! I can't keep up with mine anymore. I buy them something they LOVED last month and though they are always very thankful, you can tell they are over it, lol. I'm a nerd Nanny, that's for sure. But I was a nerd Mom, who always seemed to be a few steps behind what was "in"..... I just finished that dragon video and WOW, was that something? I'll be trying that on the back pack for my son (who's in his early 40's) lol, but is still a kid at heart and thought they were an awesome idea for dungeons and dragons gift bags. Yes, doing the covering of any matt medium on that will give me anxiety, lol so it's up to you to do it first. You're braver than I am!!!!!!!!!! I'm still crazy busy getting things done around here now that we're back but I'll get to the box and the back pack one of these days!! I love that kind of stuff. Okay my friend, take care and God bless ... until your next creation!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Andrew, thank you for bringing this up. I will start an Amazon Affiliate Account. Yes, Like myself once-upon-a-time had a hard time figuring out what tools to use. I will do that as soon as possible. I am ready to film the Faux Book Box. When the video is loading, I will create an account. PLEASE POST YOUR MAKE in my Facebook Group, (JunkJournalDepot) at Joulette Edwards. Join The Group!

I have everything prepped now, and I am ready to film it. Soooo, stay tuned. If I can get this done quickly, this video will be loaded by this evening. What I may do is break it up into two videos so that it will load faster. If I don't they will take all evening, and into the morning.

@@craftsewcute5092 I think breaking it up into two videos is a good idea. Quicker and easier. I'll be looking for it!!! I'm thinking I may actually make my own paper for the Bento box purse, with fairies, flowers, etc. to go in the box for my sister in law. I'm just pondering how to go about it but I think I'll cut out the template and THEN decorate it and assemble it. It will be card stock with water color paper glued on top of it so I'm just afraid it will be too thick. But I'm going to do a prototype and see how that goes. If it doesn't work, I will make it with my decorative paper and keep it for myself, so it's a win/win, lol. Okay, I'll see you on your next video!!!!!!!!

Off camera I reinforced it with card craft, and actually make it sturdier, and will withstand the opening a closing. You rock Sister!

@@craftsewcute5092 I just got home yesterday and I MIGHT try to make it today, lol. But my poor ole body needs a rest after those 11 hour car rides. I have my fat Pomeranian, Poe, and so I can't fly or take the train. Once I'm feeling up to it, I'll be doing this. I can't wait!!!!!!!

Thanks for having my back friend! I wrote those measurements in the description box below. Idea! Do you have wrapping paper for a little girl? Paste it to card stock. How are you doing? Your Son? OMG, when I had gone through three knee surgery's...OuuuuCH! 2 on the R-Knee, 1 on the L. Now I have to have 2 knee replacements, both done at the same time... I know... I know... Yes, because having one done, the other will not support the weight baring, and they get you up and walking as soon as the anesthesia wares off. I should have had them done 4 years ago, but after having lost my Mother and younger brother within 2 months of each other, after convincing the to move here to Georgia... I went into a major depressed mode... almost having lost my oldest daughter from Severe Domestic Violence, that caused her blindness, that Surgeons said; that she will be permanently blind.... God said NO! Her eyesight was fully restored. Yikes, why did I go there... Oh yes, I am afraid to have surgery. The pain will be unfathomable...over the years, my pain tolerance... a Mosquito can bite me, and I'm done... just kidding lol, but yes ULTRA Sensitive! Wow! your daughter is a Sweetie. OMG, I would love to meet you in person. I think you and I will always be laughing, after all, we are Doppelgangers. ((( Hugs ))) to you and Yours

@@craftsewcute5092 Oh my gosh Julie, you have been through so much!!!!! I knew you had had something quite traumatizing happen but I never would have asked. I am SO sorry about your Mom, your little brother and your daughter. Thank God that her eyesight is fully restored. Miracles DO happen every day and that surely was a miracle. I get what you are saying about pain. Once you have experienced real pain, you become almost paranoid and everything seems so much worse. Pain leaves hidden scars and it traumatizes you so that you are paranoid of it. Only someone who has experienced it, to a massive degree, can understand that. I get it because of my back and those open, raw nerves. When they go off, I can't even talk because it takes so much concentration to deal with the pain. So, yes, I completely understand what you're saying. My son is doing okay and we are just waiting for his next appointment with his surgeon to know if everything worked or not. But of course, I worry every second about him. And my daughter was born an old soul with a heart that is bigger than she is. My story is very close to yours, being a single parent and trying to do it on my own. The struggle is real!!!!! I would love to meet you too ... it's not every day you get to meet your doppleganger, lol. But we have much in common and I think we would never shut up, lol. Okay, this was way longer than it was supposed to be. Your other video made everything perfectly clear (I did make my little box too wide but it works so no biggie) and I'll be making another with your great idea of wrapping paper!!!!! I do have that!! Until next time, my friend ((BIG HUGS)) xoxoxo

@@tracyhunt7919 With my daughter, A SWAT TEAM had to help her and the children get out. When first Paramedics came, they immediately LIFE FLIGHT her to Shreveport Trauma Surgical Center. Everyday I am more Grateful for what God has done in my life since that Day... 1976, I watched Jesus Of Nazareth. When HE was flogged, and had to walk with wounds wide open, carrying the cross, that's as far as I could take it... ran to my room, folded myself up underneath my mother's Singer Sewing Machine, and CRIED...WHY...IT SHOULD BE ME, NOT YOU! NOT YOU! I felt a presence embracing me as I wept. I did not know what was going on, but I was not afraid. But HE revealed himself to me as I grew up, and when I came to that point in my life when I fully understood... I accepted Him and my Lord and Savior. From that moment on to this day...God's hands has been upon my life showing me His LOVE and FAITHFULNESS, His Grace and Mercy. I will meet you one day... I will plan for it. (( HUGS ))

@@craftsewcute5092 wow, that just made me cry and it takes a lot to make me cry!!!!!! I had something happen to me, as an adult in a very bad place, where I believe Jesus was actually there for me. I couldn't look upon Him, for the light around Him was so bright, I couldn't have taken it. The calm, the love, and the peace that I was left with has NEVER left my mind. When I close my eyes, I can actually feel it like it is happening all over and it has comforted me in the worst of times. It was like His gift to me to have forever. I am not a practicing Catholic but was raised one. I have so many faults. But my faith is strong and that proved to me that He loves me, just as I am, flaws and all, and will be there for me whenever I need Him. I swear, I anger easily, I have an evil sense of humor and laugh at things I probably shouldn't, lol. However, I felt His love for me and I was far worse then than I am now so I am a work in progress. I respect everyone's beliefs and what they feel is right for THEM. In fact, I'm currently working on a Wicca junk journal and storage box for my sister in law. Much of what I'm reading about that is the love of nature and all the bounty that is out there to sustain us, heal us and just enjoy because of its beauty. I can't find fault in that. I recognized your beautiful heart the minute I watched the first of many of your videos. You are a special person with a giving, kind soul. I am so happy that your daughter is okay and got through that horrible time. What a nightmare it must have been!!

@@tracyhunt7919 @Joulette Edwards Hugs to you both. Hope you get to meet.

I told you... We are!... dopplegangers. Wow, you both fell on the couch! I did laugh at the situation, because that sinario fits me and my hubby, although it would be him behind me...lol. How is your son's recovery coming along. So happy that your enjoying the vids. Sending something to your email soon.

I hope you find your die cutting machine! I have the vagabond, because of my hands, but I should have ordered the bigs Professional one. I know I have to crank it but, the platform is larger. I have die cuts that are wider than the Vagabond. The Bigs Pro is now my Christmas wish. 5 more months!

@@craftsewcute5092 He's coming along, slowly but surely! Thanks for asking xoxo

@@craftsewcute5092 Yeah, it's hard to pick one because each one is better for different reasons and you just have to weigh which one is best for YOU. The one I chose was just a little cheapy but I want to try it out and see how I like it. Tell hubby that you want to celebrate Christmas in July, lol

@@tracyhunt7919 🤣

And I would definitely remind people to like, subscribe and share. I know I always forget and I need that reminder. I almost forgot to "like" that last video and had to go back and do it. I can't be the only one who forgets!!

Wow Treasure, 23 acres... it must be sooo beautiful? Open pastures. I would love to have our property totally open but have our Trees encapsulate us as a natural Fence line, but also keep our trail area heavily would so that the deer stay bedded there next to our river frontage. Hubby supplies them with a corn feeder, salt blocks, and a corn block for them and all the other animals to eat from. We were blessed with a huge RV trailer that hubby wants to put there near the river so we can stay in it to listen to the river. Our private vacation spot... but the only thing I worry about is a tree limb falling on it. He's going to build a fire pit with a horse shoe seating area around it, so when we have company during the fall and winter we can cook out there and have bonfires there. It is an older model, but it is fully equipped. The side walls extend out making it more spacious. It has a queen bed in it, and other bed foldouts. We're, oops, he, he is doing a cleaning overhaul to it. I have difficulty stepping up into it, but he said he will make a ramp for me to get inside. I am so happy that your making Origami's. Trace, make them and sell them. I am going to do a process video to turn them into Pens.... so stay tuned for that. Sell them as a pair of Flat Pens? Blessings to you and Yours... I can't thank you enough for your friendship. I still think we're doppelgangers. Our nature and life experiences are nearly a reflection of each other.

@@craftsewcute5092 It sounds like you have a little piece of Heaven there!!!!!!!!!! A dream come true really. Can't wait to see the pens!!! Anything I make, I give away or keep for myself. I have made several journals and they have all been given away to friends/family ... well, except the one I made for memories of my Mom. And please don't thank me, I have enjoyed your videos so much and you have given me so many great ideas, I have to thank YOU for inspiring me and getting me excited about these things. I kind of lost interest for a bit and your videos made me want to get back to it. The picture of that river, with the smell of something good cooking, a cold drink and good company will give me something to dream about tonight!! I think we are both blessed xoxoxox

I am so glad you showed that you struggled with his jacket!! I had a wicked time but I knew you had actually trimmed down the part that wasn't folding right and even trimmed down the part where it was sticking out beyond the lapels. No matter what I did, I couldn't get it right so, like you, I trimmed it off and no one will ever be the wiser, lol. Thank you!!

Ya know, I watch a lot of DIY videos for transformations on Dollar Store stuff. I don't know why because I never make them but I just like seeing something transformed into something that looks high end. Anyway, I can see these put on two Dollar Tree frames that have been painted and a different background put on it. Wouldn't they be just beautiful hanging over an Asian style dresser or something? For anyone trying to decorate on a budget, this would be a great addition to any Asian themed room.

Oh my gosh, I just had another idea for those two, lol............Your shoji screen!!!!!!!! I don't know how big they are but a person could create their own beautiful Asian themed wall art with the shoji screens and one of them on each one with the Japanese symbol for love, peace, happiness, strength, whatever!!! Beautiful wall art that would be completely free if a person had the supplies!! I may try to do that, just to see how it looks!

Tracy, thank you for your lovely comments. I appreciate you. I see that I have views on my channel, and having to constantly as for the thumbs up if they like my content only takes a second to click on it. Apparently it is a communicator for UA-cam to take notice to promote my channel in the Recommended section. Not having the clicks on there just tells me that my content is not that great. Perhaps to lengthy? I don't know? What I will do is finish up my Oriental, and Springtime Journal so you can see how I do the Corset Process. Did you get my email? I sent you some extra goodies. I just finished a 1 page instruction process of the measurements on how to make an Origami Oriental Doll. I will do a tutorial how to put one together, but I will send it to your email so you can get your papers ready to craft along with me. The measurements are not just for Origami Paper. You can use any double sided paper. I will be sending it to you shortly. I hope you like it? You will see the paper doll I made, and you can fussy cut it out, as well and the Japanese works; LOVE, HAPPINESS, and PEACE. ((( HUGS )))

@@craftsewcute5092 I did get the email and responded. I was so tickled to get them because I just love your stuff. I did have a problem downloading the cherry blossoms image and my husband couldn't figure out how to get it downloaded either. I can't even pull up the image of it. Not sure what's going on? I'm excited about the origami doll and I'll definitely be making it. I'm heading over now to watch your video. And yes, though I enjoy the longer vids, most people just don't have the time to watch them all the way through and look for smaller projects, like your bookmark pen, that is quick and an idea to use in pre-existing journals. You have so many great ideas and projects that I think breaking them down to just one thing at a time, would be helpful. I love your videos as they are, just so you know ❤ Okay, going to look through my paper and when I get my kimono doll done, I'll send a pic in email xoxox

@@tracyhunt7919 I will resend the cherry blossom 🌸

OOPS, and I meant to say you did an amazing job on that card and envelope. What a beautiful card to send your daughter. Something to keep forever.

Sorry, I am a blatherer, lol. But I just want to say that I'm subscribed and I have it set up to notify me for ALL of your new vids and yet, I'm not getting notifications for you. I had 6 others today but it never mentioned you. Any idea why?

@@tracyhunt7919 Humm... I don't know?

I'm loading a video right now. It's only at 4%...OMG, it is going to take a while, because this video is just over an hour. I just can't seem to get one on in 30 minutes...LOL

@@craftsewcute5092 lol, well it's my experience that the long ones are the most informative. I know a lot of people do like them shorter though. The world is full of people used to instant gratification, lol. I'll go look for your vid and get myself a cup of tea to enjoy it with 😊 Also, I just looked and I was notified for the new video.

Glad you made it home safely! Did your package arrive?

@@craftsewcute5092 I responded in email so I won't bore you again with the details, lol

OMG! your Brilliant... I forgot about the double sided tape! That is what I am going to use to fix it. Also, your idea with brads, and braiding ribbon is an excellent idea. Are you still in Virginia? I am nearly done packing up all of the packages... The only thing left is that I am going to put in each package a Surprise Charm in case my winners want to place it on the spine of their journals. Then write out all of the addresses. I have three that I believe I have to fill out a special label, because 2 goes to India, and one to Spain. I will be doing a short video soon as a reminder of the 50th subscribership Giveaway package entails. What I have been doing is, trying to write out the list of names who have subscribed cutting it off to the first 50, but my list does not match the subscribers count, and I don't want to leave anyone out. Also, I've been trying to figure out how to link the free digitals that I want to post in the description box below my videos... My personal IT hubby was stumped trying to help me. I have been looking in UTube for a tutorial, but it is for uploading to Etsy. I could do Etsy, but I have not created enough material to put them in my Etsy store. They charge a fee when you use that sight, and I don't have enough content that will be monetarily advantageous. Besides,I get greater joy giving a digital away that costs me nothing to give, and know that someone can use it right away to start making something beautiful with it. Tracy, thank you for your friendship, and encouragement. I appreciate you. xoxo

Tracy, I have been in my email looking for your address, and OMG... can't find it. I am going to the post office today, but I need your address again please!

OMG... FOUND YOUR ADDRESS! xoxo

@@craftsewcute5092 Oh good!!! I will be in NY by Monday so if you are sending it there we're good. If you send it to Va. the post office will hold it and I'll be back here soon. I am so excited to get it Julie!!!!!!!!!

@@craftsewcute5092 I've never used the double sided tape with acetate so definitely try it on something else first, lol. And don't forget to put a bead of glue along the top of the tape so that no papers will get stuck to the tape. I hope it works!!!!!!! As for your number of subscribers, could your numbers/names be off because my son actually subscribed with his name twice because even though it was him and his wife, she uses his other email account most of the time for things she doesn't want clogging her work email. It was for him and his wife but it would be under his name twice. I bet that's the problem with the count. They are a couple so would only count as one anyway. I hope that's not confusing. If it is, I'll try to explain it better. I have no idea how to link the free digitals. Could you provide a link to your facebook page and have the digitals on there somehow? I don't do any of this stuff so I wish I could be more help. If all else fails, email another youtuber like Gi Kerr and see how she does it. She does hers from her facebook page. I will see if I can figure it out. Let me know if you do figure it out though. Also, you can share files and folders through Google Drive. Look it up on Google and see if that would help? I hope so. You truly are so generous and your kindness is going to enable people to make the beautiful things they want to make but can't afford. I truly appreciate you also and I just think you are an amazing crafter but even better, you are an amazing person xoxoxo

Thank you for leaving me a comment... I'm on the phone with the hubby and telling him about the question I asked my viewers to comment on, and at the same time reading your comment... and I just had a chuckle, because I loved your commentary... That thought never crossed my mind... I chuckled, because after having suggested to get some paint swatches, I thought I would be putting someone in danger of stealing for the sake of crafting. Thank you for your comment.

About the paint samples, I once called a hardware store that sells paint and asked if they had any old wallpaper books. The woman who worked in that area said she had two that she had kept for herself but that I could have them since she had no time to craft. WELL, I went to pick up the books and she gave me a grocery sized bag of those paint samples!! I have been stumped as to what to do with them, lol. If you want a bunch, I'd send them? And thanks to you, I now have at least one idea to use them for 🙃

Thank you Tracy! Yes, Daily Affirmations is what a Devotional Journal is all about. Affirming what you want to stay focused on, affirming yourself with hopes and dreams, affirming the devotions to ones self, of who you are, encouraging yourself by building, and strengthening yourself. Out Heavenly Father's continually affirms in us; "that we are a New Creation in Christ, that old things have pass away; all things are New". Affirming us to not longer conform ourselves to what the world says we should conform too, But; "BE YE TRANSFORMED, by the RENEWING OF OUR MIND". That is Devotional, Affirmational. Our Father says, "So a man thinketh in his Heart; so IS he". He says "Think on whatever is true, whatever things are noble, just, pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things". Philippians 4:8 You are not alone when it comes to procrastination's and leaving so many things unfinished... That's why our father says, He will REDEEM that time lost; just simply ASK, Meditate on those things, He already KNOWS your desires... The giveaway package full of goodies will be great to us to embellish it. Hugs

@@craftsewcute5092 Oh the embellishment pack will be perfect!!!!!!!! You may not hear from me for a bit because I'm going down to visit my kids in Virginia (they are adults but of course, always our "kids" lol). I'm not sure how often I will be on here but I will try to check in because I am excited about the next step in this journal. You do inspire me <3 Until then.......
