Good morning! My Mom is 80 and having memory problems. I've been looking for simple projects to keep her busy and help her to feel useful. This is the perfect project for Mom. Thank you!
I’m so glad you can laugh at yourself! Refreshing!!!
I build paper in old phone books. The paper is super thin and really can't be used by itself but makes a great base.
Such a good idea ! 😊
Yes, it is a good idea. But where are you finding old phone books? I guess a person could also use all the catalogs we receive in the mail.
22:46 - I feel seen as I craft from the bed ❤
Long Covid is a bitch but playing with my paper stash makes me happy
I wondered why I'm addicted to watching your vids and it's not just your give it a go attitude, it's your sense of humour. You make me laugh and you inspire my creativity.
Thank you ❤
Omg. I wake up, it is 6:45am. I get coffee on let dogs out and feed rabbit. I get coffee and laptop get online and what? I find this Fantastic tutorial. I am no playin people. My day is off to wonderful start and this tut was is the cherry on top. I got craft table set up yesterday and this evening I am so doing this. Thank you so much lady. Hugs
Love this idea and they could take you to so many places in a journal. Sun I hope you rest and are well.
Good morning Pam ,and Sunny and the rest of the family. Glad he's okay. Have a great week fellow crafter's. 😀
TURDA o’clock 🤣 hilariously funny l just love that ❤
Love this idea…I love the way the punched embellishments turned out
Now THERE's an idea for a video, Pam. Using "just" a 1" circle punch, and of course the assorted other supplies, let's see how many ways we can use that ONE punched shaped. Maybe start with a variety of already punched ones, like scrapbook paper/card stock, dyed papers, collaged papers, etc. Maybe decorate a few "plain" ones to become things like "buttons" or similar. Then, how to add these things in, for example the tabs, etc. ❤ (edited to add: omg, "saturday" broke at the funniest spot!!! Had to pause to laugh it out!)
I hope all my wonderful fellow Outpostian peeps are doing great and having a creative weekend! ❤
Thanks...you too!
Your videos create reckless amusement in my home! I just love listening to you while I’m crafting and i always learn something.💙💙
I totally would have left the “special” circle just to see how many people noticed 😉 Thanks for providing a fantastic laugh and a great video!
10/10 Pam for the Entertainment
Oh I love that inner thirteen year old boy coming out to play when Saturday tore. I'm the same!
Turd! LMAO🤣 Thanks for the giggles Pam! Your embellishments came out super cute!
Hello Fellow Crafters! Love today’s video! Anything is a craft supply ! Sometimes punching through aluminum foil will sharpen the punch. Hugs to all❤️
How about a piece of Emory cloth sanding paper..( dark gray type) instead of aluminum?
Nice tip - Thank you :)
This is a Great idea. Very thrifty. Your Sunshine, Sonny, Sunny is so adorable.
Good morning Pam💕 ☕️☕️ I want and need to head to the craft room and am procrastinating. 😊 I consolidated some baskets and bins of trims and laces yesterday. Today, my craft room looks like a Hobby Lobby and Joann’s both exploded taking out a Walmart plastics storage aisle to boot. 🙄 Thanks for the ideas and sharing your time with us. Have a great weekend all! 💕
You have some nice punches! I'm so happy Sunshine is back to "normal"!
Good Morning Pam :)
This is fun !
Thank you ❤
Wow ! Love the bird punch .
That really turned out well. Couldn’t believe the smaller worked better than some of the bigger ones. Lol!
Love 💕 the T- - - one .
Thanks for sharing.
You are hilarious ...those punches !! I laughed out loud 😅...Great craft idea , loved it ❤
Wonderful ideas as usual! I always love to watch you craft and share you share you thought process in doing things, or don't think, just do it! I tend to over think, so that is what I am trying to work on, not thinking about it, just craft and see where it goes. Sunny is so cute. I'm glad he is feeling better. Have a grwat weekend Pam! ❤😊
WE LOVE SUNSHINE ... KISSES from Brazil
This is the inspiration I needed for some leftover scraps of of papers that need to use up. Thank you!
Saturday had me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great idea I love these ! Thanks Pam glad sunshine is okay
Good morning Pam 🤗
Lot of giggles on this one but very successful, love how the birds turned out. Fabulous ideas, thank you for sharing! Have a wonderful weekend, hugs! 💕
Fun video! The Saturday moment cracked me up too! Glad Sunny is just fine!!
Oh Pam. Your broken saTURDAy just had me laughing out loud 😂 brilliant. I could see it coming and was yelling at the screen NO! And then you started to laugh too. That's why I love your posts. Have a wonderful day everyone, love n hugs from England xxxx
Me too! I thought..it's going to happen...couldn't look away. Best thing that happened to me today.
I have some scrapbooks that are over 100 yrs old and the pages that have nothing on. I saved a box of scraps..so I love this
Good morning Miss Pam. Love your spontaneity! Watching you is the highlight of my day!
Oh dear, Ms Happy Pants! 😂 'some days are diamond, some days are turd!' 😂😂😂
Hello Pam and Sunshine 🌞! 💙
Oh! Pam, not only did you teach me a great way to use up my scraps but you made me laugh so much, especially the Saturday bit. 😂. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and also your beautiful happy nature. Bless you! Love from Australia 😊. Just as an aside, I am actually from Cape Town but have settled here in Australia. Yes, paper does bring people from all over the world. Blessings!
Love the phrase disaster pants! 😂 It has started coming out of my mouth and I get blank stares from my family. Love your videos, Pam.
I’m with you! I’m adding “putzing “ to my vocabulary! ♥️
I’m constantly saying, “Everything is a craft supply until proven otherwise.” I get a lot of strange looks. 😂
Glad your pup is ok🙂
LOL Pam love it . 💘 You are so funny. love the reckless abandon.
Hi Pam, & Sunshine! So glad Sunshine is better & nothing serious! Yes, I love a 1 inch punch circle. Put 4 of them to make flower, 3 can make a roundish heart. Then upside-down it & put another one on top for maybe a person. Just a few ideas with one inch punch circle. Thanks for the idea of making collage paper from scraps then use it to punch one each circles & other punches also! ❤Shari ☺️🫂🐾🍄🦩🐦🦋🍁
I'm so glad I found your channel & subscribed! A little over a month ago, my only son had a very serious heart attack. Thankfully, he miraculously survived, although the doctors can't explain how. It's left me with some stress & feelings to work through - my only brother died from a heart attack at 38 - my son is 39. Since his heart attack, I've started journaling to work through some stuff, and I started creating junk journals as an extension. I didn't have a lot of "supplies" to work with, so I'm slowly building a collection. I love how you demonstrate that we can literally turn trash into treasure, and teach us how to use stuff we have lying around - it's not only a great way to save money & save things from the landfill, it is an emotional boost to create something pretty and have that sense of accomplishment it provides. Thank you so much for doing this - you just don't have any idea how much it means to me - and I'm sure so many others as well! I know I can't be the only creative soul who doesn't have a lot of money to spend on hobbies! Just wanted to say "Thanks!" and tell you that YOU ROCK!!!
Love the xxturday. Laughed out loud. Fun video! Great ideas!
As I’ve said before Pam, you always make me laugh! Way to use the scraps!
🤣 happy Saturday!
Great ideas, Pam. Thank you for inspiring us and making us laugh too. Blessings on your weekend. ❤
Yes maam, i DO have scrap paper! Woohoo lets go have fun!! ❤
The sa’turd’ay thing - I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes. 😂😂😂 I will never be able to look at that word again in the same way…
Great fun video Pam. Excellent idea and fun presentation. Your the best!!
Sa... turday. 🤣
Oh Pam, I laughed SO hard that I was crying and tears were streaming down my face. I had to pause the video because I couldn't hear what you were saying! Bless your beautiful heart. You've made my day end with a ton of giggles. Sending love from me here in very hot Dorset in England, to you there, stuck up with glue stick and probably sticking to your craft mat! ~ Cobs. (UK) ❤
Mornin' Pam. Ways to use up scraps is always good. TFS Hope you all have a great day. 🌞
OMG Pam!! Thanks for the great saTURDay laugh out loud 😂 moment! So great 💙
Always fun and genius creative an awesome ideas!!🐞🐞🐞
Love this video!!! Sometimes I just need to go back to the basics. Thank you Pam!! 😊
Those are really lovely. I enjoyed the process.😃
Thanks for the laugh today! What time is it....TURD o'clock...LOL
Oh! Turd!!! I am dying here!😂😂😂
Hi Pam and crafty friends. This was really a very funny video. Was LOL 😂. Great idea. Nice, stress free craft session 😉 We have a Yorkie and when we leave her alone at home for a couple of hours she would sulk so badly she would really seem ill... refusing food, treats, belly rubs or hugs... and then the next day she'll be fine again. That does however not stop my husband and I from going into a flat panic thinking she might be terminal when she does this. I have to mention that she does have several health issues so we can never just assume she's faking it. Better safe than sorry. 🐕Glad that Sunny is feeling better 💞 I'm also from South Africa (I think I've mentioned that before), unfortunately I am nowhere close to the lovely Cape Town. I am stuck in a concrete jungle called "Gauteng". But up here we create our own beauty in our craft rooms 😁👍🏻🖍️ Have a wonderful weekend and create with reckless abandon ❤
I love that bird punch tfs Pam...Kia Kaha...
You made me laugh so hard when I was viewing the gluing of saTURDay paper......it was such an innocent thing but funny....Thank you for sharing your creative ideas...............😻
I hope Sunny feels better soon ❤ love your videa
Pam you just made my saTURDAY! I have to go to work in 2 hours…..so this was a effect craft this morning! Lol! Love these! ❤️📕🇨🇦 (now I NEED a bird punch….that is so great! )
Oh you are wonderfully crazy and crafty! I've introduced your craziness to some friends who haven't done this before. And; kisses to my other fav puppy. My Sweet Potato doesn't have to know lol.
I have decided that I really like the way your mind works. I will now throw nothing away without at least trying to craft with it. Thank you for an enlightening video.
If Sunny gets that way again you may want to try come unsweetened canned pumpkin. I works with my little furnace whenever he won't eat.
Loved your scraps ideas🩵
Love, love, love everything thing about this video! We are not perfect but I firmly believe we need to throw our anxieties to the wind and rage on! Love your willingness to try anything with fearless, joyful abandon. Maybe a little reckless! 🖤🖤🖤
Great idea, Pam! I love using up my scraps and this will use the tiniest pieces. I think backing them with the catalog pages is a great wayto use the catalogs up.
Glad Sunny is back to his old self. You always know something is wrong when they stop eating. Have a great weekend!❤
Ha! Oh Pam, you make me laugh. xx
Did you say elephant poop paper? 😂😂😂😂😂 next level Pam, next level. 😅❤
My jaw dropped and i had to pause to laugh! 😂
i am definitely going to try this. i love those punches. you are so clever!
I don't often laugh out loud, but I did this am. Thank you!! I needed thst!
❤ TFS! Saturday ! Laughed so good 😅
Pam - instead of tugging them into oblivian - then try layers of silver paper - with your stamps - it works with sharpening scissors 💖
PERFECT TIMING! I'm making birthday cards for all of my sisters. Five of us have birthdays this month and we're getting together for dinner tonight. We usually just give cards with money or lottery tickets. I'm done with the envelopes but I need junk journaly ideas for the cars. None of them know what a junk journal is. But, they're all artists so I need to impress them.
How about... turning your card into a mini junk journal style card? Add a little signature of maybe 2-3 total extra sheets. Create a few little pockets/tucks, maybe add a prompt word to a couple pages... Depending on the type of art they do, they may be more aquainted with an Art Journal, and you can lean on that by including papers with background color/texture they can add to. Incorporate a few things we do in a JJ, such as bits of trims, a button, paper clips, old bits of paper...
I call this hybrid a Creativity Journal. I leave space for actual writing, space for ... well, basically, any kind of creativity! [I love these when I want to be creative, but don't feel very inspired]. I mix up types of paper, like multi-media, cardstock, printer paper I dyed, etc. Collaging, rubber stamps, and other background techniques on some pages. A page with a tuck can hold a journaling card with a one-word prompt on it, like, "Harmony", or "Nature".
The recipient can choose whatever direction their personal Creativity Journal goes in, be it mostly written or full-on art, or if they want to lean into the actual JJ side of things.
Adding enough elements you find (mostly) in a JJ adds that amazing flair to it, and (gradually) introduces the recipent to the idea of a JJ. (I still cannot manage to give a single-sentence response to the question, "what is a junk journal?" Other than: i like to use what a lot of folks call "junk" in my journals. Yeah, that doesn't really work 😂)
Anyway, just my thought. Whatever you create for your sisters, I know it will be amazing, and your sisters will absolutely love it. 😊 The best gifts come straight from the heart.
Good Morning Sunshine and Pam. I'm sure glad Sunshine is okay. I truly think that Sunshine was upset with you for leaving him alone. I hope and pray everyone has a fantastic crafty weekend. Sending love and big hugs Sherry ❤ ❤❤
😂❤such a fun idea I can’t wait to make some, thank you Pam
You make me laugh Pam! Oh, and I left my Scotch glue stick uncovered the other night and I thought of you when I saw it the next day … I took out my exacto knife and cut off the dry part. Thanks for all you tips.
I must say Thank you! I followed your example and put my Fabric Fix glue in an icing piping bottle. My project gluing is so much easier and neater with this method. Thank you, thank you so much for all the tips and tricks!!!!
Roflmbo! I usually laugh at least once during your videos but today my sides hurt from laughing so hard! Hope Sunny continues to feel better! I wonder if he was lonesome? TFS your Saturday with us! 😁😱🙃 Hugs from South Dakota 🤗
This is a great idea
Fabulous idea! You are cooking with Crisco! I'll definitely try this!!!
Crisco is one of the oils that is really bad for you. I only use olive oil now. Took all seed oils out of my diet. They are proven to be carcinogenic and also cause heart disease.
All fun!
You made my day!🤣🤗🌸
Goodmorning ❤️ lol oh your funny of COURSE I have scraps!😅😅
nose right and nose left 😀
great tip for the paper punches!
LOL! SaTURDay!😂😂😂
really Pamm??? Lol with the word in the circle ... you got a laught out of me xD !!! hahaha
Hi Pam , newbie here . Love your video's, you have so many great idea's and you make me laugh ( thought it was just me that talks to myself while crafting lol ) ..... I'm also in love with sunshine your dog .❤😂😂 thanks for sharing xxx
I felt like he did yesterday. What we call being “off his feed.” I am fine today too! Love the scrappy play. Thank you.
Fun!
Wonderful
Thanks Pam. I will use this in my journal group that I teach at the gallery where I sell my stuff.
Sunny would like to read Hank the Cowdog adventures. :)
Oooh! A way to use Science in crafting! Given paper of uniform thickness, I think the amount of outline in the punch image affects the force you need to apply to punch the paper. The EK punches of each size have equal sized handles (levers) but the images are unequal in the total "length" of the outline. Imagine if you used a long string to make the shapes. A circle/oval encloses the space with the smallest amount of string. Any force you put on that shape is distributed onto a smaller surface. The butterfly, on the other hand, has those scallops along the edge of the wings, a longer string would be needed to make the outline and the same pressure to cut all of that extra surface would produce less overall force per square centimeter on the paper. This relates to the same idea of a person lying on a bed of nails with all of their weight as opposed to lying on ONE nail. Now to think about cookie cutters.... :-)
Thanks!
Thank you so much! Biggest hugs!
Pam and Sunnny xoxoxo
I just bought knew punches and at first they are very difficult but after I used it a couple of times it was fine👍🏻love your project. Paper collage is beautiful ❤
Hey Pam, fun video❤ Suggestion I've seen from a crafter here in Brazil regarding punches that don't cut well: apply a couple of drops of sewing machine oil to the mechanism (in between or below the cutting surface where sometimes? There is a spring). Let it dry before using...
Some punches may be like scissors and it matters which way the pressure is made. Like right-handed or left-handed scissors. Or maybe they were dull already if you got them at a thrift store. And my last idea is that maybe there is gunk on the blades that need to be cleaned off. I think that's why punching foil or sandpaper helps things cut. Not that it sharpens but it cleans the blades. And that's my 2 cents worth. Oh, and if you have a directional punch you can change the direction of the image by turning the paper over. Thanks for your inspiration. I really enjoy your videos and have learned a lot watching you. Not only the way you do things but the idea of just trying something. It's only paper!! ❤❤❤
I’m glad SunBun is okay.
Pam have you ever inked the edge of each scrap b4 you glue it down? It creates a whole new look. I think Mr. Sun-bun was trying to make you feel guilty for leaving him at home alone 😜. Thank goodness he didn't decide it was "turd o'clock" time... 😂
Your laughter brightened my day!!! Thank you. I needed that😊. Btw, I really enjoy watching your videos! Have a great weekend everyone!!
I actually step on some of mine,it works
