You remember what my emoticon means? It goes something like: I'm here. Loving what you do. May the Only Living God continue to richly bless you.
I have been searching for this very kind of cover tutorial! And now it''s from one of my favorite teachers!! Thank you Gayle!
I think that ‘lace page’ would make a gorgeous journal cover. It’s beautiful 😍
Hi
I just made a journal cover from an Amazon package.
I am so pleased with it. I am giddy! I can't wait to give it to the friend I am making this journal for. She will love it.
Thank you Gayle you are such an inspiration!
I have been saving mailers without any idea how to use them😀! Now I know 😉! Time for me to pull out my sewing 🧵 machine and get crafting 😁! Thank you for sharing your tutorial,, take care 🤗💕!
This is exactly what I want to do. I've always used food box and TV dinner packaging. I took a couple years off, moved to Mexico for a year, decided I didn't like it so I'm starting over at my new residence here in New Mexico, which I absolutely love. So I'm buying everything new as I can but I have a really great craft area and a slightly larger house now too. It's an adventure for sure. I've been binge watching your videos. They are very informative not to mention entertaining. You will no doubt be hearing more from me. I'm a big fan. Toodles for now.
You are very organized and I think that is very important. Knowing before you start what you are doing and haing a vision. You do it very well. I have learned so much from you over the past few years.Thank you for always inspiring me.
Thank you, Beverly! ❤️
Would love to see how you sew in the signatures Gayle!!😊
I love this cover, the slow stitched piece is awesome! One thing you might try is before you sew in the signature, put the pages under several heavy books. Catherine at Sunnyside Journals and Nancy at Wishes and Weeds both use a book press. I don’t have a press so I just stack books on mine overnight and it’s amazing how much it presses down the pages.
Love that you used prime envelope.Beautiful recycling .lovely cover!!!
Thanks for showing how to do the amazon envelope cover. Your slow stitch piece was so pretty. Can't wait to see you show how to do the lace pages, That would piece would be a beautiful soft cover all on its own
Yay! I've been saving some Amazon envelopes to make covers with and was going to go back through your tutorials to see how you do it. Perfect timing, Gayle! Thank for another wonderful tutorial. xxx
Same!
I'd like to see you do a journal without any digital kit. It could include fussy Cut Thing and printed background material but no kit
Gayle has done lots of journals on video without digital kits, you can go back and look at her playlist and you will see several. 😊
@@laurettechandlerthevintage3022 Sad though that she is given what we have to purchase to make sales for the giver.
Yes as a matter of a fact the talk was great, although slightly one sided. Nothing better than the extra Ink & Think!! Stunning as only you can do every single time!!! The lace page is Soooooooo Amazing!! This will be a journal to dye for. Namaste my Sweet Friend🥰🐞🤗
oh my god, YES...............Love spending my Saturday watching you. I am getting so inspired and encouraged - listening to you. CAN you PLEASE show us how you clean your sewing machine??? I need to learn - and I bet you are just the right gal to teach me...........so please I found you
Oh my quilter friends would crack up at the idea that I could teach anyone to clean their machine! 😂. I’m the worst! My best advice is to take it to a sewing machine repair place for cleaning. 👍❤️
Love how this journal turned out and love the slow stitch piece ❤️❤️😍😍 would love to see how the lace page is done 🙏 that would make a great cover page 😊
TFS 😘😘😘😘😘
You go sweet Gayle. You are the best and they don’t make them any better! Love, Lenie
Thank you so much, dear Lenie! ❤️
Love watching you make journal covers, you make it look so easy!! This turned out gorgeous and that slow stitching you put on the cover is beautiful. Yes please to doing a lace page on camera. Love to see how you did that!! Have an awesome evening...💜
This is going to be lovely! That cover is delicious and the slow stitch piece on the front is gorgeous.
Wow! That cover is beautiful! Your slow stitch piece is gorgeous and perfect for the cover.
Loved this tutorial! I've been wanting to make more fabric covers and seeing this is so doable. This will be a gorgeous journal. And in reference to your fabric/lace page...I think it needs to be a cover! You could place large journal cards in pockets to supply stability and a color theme. That little trim on the spine made me feel it as a cover. Great video as always!!
Gayle, that is gorgeous and the front cover is phenomenal! The slow stitching is great, Rachel would be so proud. Hugs ❤️❤️❤️
I really like how your mind works on figuring out the pages. So cool watching u !!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much, Carol! ❤
I am looking forward to the lace fabric page tutorial-yours is beautiful!!
Thank you for this. I too save mine and recycle them but I always wanted to make a journal out of them. Perfect for what I want. Bible study notes.
This helps so many Gayle. Thank you for doing this again. Very helpful! Blessings
I love love this. I have a stash of these put away. I also love the idea of having a front embelly ready to go. Gorgeous!
A very fun video. It all looks so awesome and has Cathy Holden fabric. So lovely💓💓💓💓💓
thanks, this video came just in time. I really love love love that lace page. please make a video making one. it’s stunning!
its great to watch the creative process, i love internal pages!! You are reigniting a long dormant passion for papercrafting. Its been about 7 years since i scrapbooked, but i am itching to create a journal after stumbling across your wonderful channel
Yay! That makes me so happy to hear!! ❤️
This was helpful tutorial. I love using these envelopes as I have a lot of them. Great idea! And I am not sure if I was the Jessi in the 'Hi and Hugs', but Im pretending it was and it made my day! Looking forward to seeing this journal come together!
Gayle: nice job with this journal. I just love all the materials we have at our disposal to recycle, reuse, and repurpose to create beautiful, functional things. Carol from California
using up those prime envelopes is awesome, I have such a huge pile I have been saving !! LOL The cover turned out beautifully !
This journal is going to be beautiful. I can tell already. Love using the Amazon envelope!💖🤗💖
Thanks for this tutorial, Gayle. Just for a bubble mailer & wondered how to use it as a cover. 😊❤
That is such an adorable cover, I remember one of your videos where you said to keep your “Zig Zag” stitch on the left at each corner and I alway think about that when I’m sewing😃
Love the slow stitching
I love your journal's I'm going to try to make my Granddaughters one for Christmas you explain everything so great😊
Beautiful journal cover!! I really appreciate that you took the time to show us once again how to make a journal cover using the Amazon packaging!! TFS!! Hugs, Liz:)
I really appreciated the detailed explanation on the sewing. I’m a novice sewer and you helped my understanding tremendously! I’ve saved a few Amazon bubble packages and looking forward to trying this out. Thanks as always Gayle😁😁😁
A beautiful cover Gayle! Top notch! Chunky monkey will be an understatement 😝. That fabric page is drop dead gorgeous! Please do a tutorial!!🙏🙏🙏. 🥰❤️
I have some Amazon envelopes saved up..looks like one will be in my future makings..thank you Gayle for showing this..can’t wait to see if you can get the lace project to show your how to..hugs my friend 🤗💜❤️
Beautiful, love the lace page!
That slow stitch on the cover is gorgeous. That journal is going to be beautiful. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing with us!
Just catching up on your videos. I saved a couple envelopes. I haven't used a sewing machine since I was a teenager, but you've given me the inspiration to give it a try.... if I fail I will get my sister to sew for me - she is a fantastic sewer but lives 2 hours away from me so not convenient to just have her "pop over" to give me a hand. (She let me borrow her old sewing machine...so we'll see how it goes. Thank you for the great tutorial!!!
I just finished my first Amazon package cover ....thank you for your mini tutorial it helped so much! Love ya auntie.
Love you too, sweetie! 😘❤️
Hi, Gayle! Thank you for the awesome ideas ❤ I like to make journals and sketchbooks for fun, just to get my mind off things, and this one is one of my favorite signatures I've seen you make 😊 I'm definitely getting that same kit and making my own coffee dyed paper one of these days! New sebscriber here 😘
My sweet friend, YOU are like a walking encyclopedia! I had a question regarding this process then realized you were GONE right now, so this tutorial straightened me out pretty quickly. I hope you are having a joyful experience, Gayle. Love you, Betty :)
Absolutely beautiful
Thank you for sharing. I have been wondering what to do with these envelopes. Love it
Oh Gayle this is going to be soooo beautiful. I can't wait to see MORE❣
:- ) O, Gayle...I just had a vision:
I keep all the multitudes of people who've lost so much through storms, earthquakes, fires, tsunamis, in my prayers. Decades back I looked up the FEMA website. Tragedies covered by that agency rolled on and on like a bad case of diarrhea. Today, it'd be so much more.
Anyway, all the women who've lost their kitchens, craft rooms; (children who've lost their toys, school materials; men who've lost their offices, documents...) Watching you ladies, if they've computer access, must be a very poignant time for them. Happy, fulfilling, joyful, gratifying, crafting vicariously--yet, heartbreaking, too.
You ladies cover a much needed loss in so many lives the world over. Just keep doing what you do.
Fabulous cover Gayle. Thank you
Thanks so much for this tutorial! It is stunning!
Love that piece of slow stitch Gayle. Beautiful cover. Hugs, Amy💕
Beautiful fabric!
This tutorial is wonderful, and creative!!!
This is going to be gorgeous! I’m so excited to see how it turns out!
This is wonderful! I have quite a few of those envelopes ! Lol! Now I can put them to good use!
I made a cover for a baby book with that fluffy white stuff😊never remember the name. Also used material and it was really cute. Love what u are doing. ❤❤❤❤❤
Batting maybe? 😊. ❤
Thanks so much for sharing your process! Love the cover and so inspiring. ❤️💞💖💕
Ah! Just what I needed to wet my appetite to try making a journal with bubble wrap envelopes. I've collected a few, so now I can say "just do it"!!! Thanks Gayle. This was a treat.
Oh, this journal is already looking gorgeous! What a great idea to use a bubble envelope as the inside of the covers. Thank you for showing us how to achieve this. Have a lovely day.
Great Work as always I have to do it. The lace page is beautiful. Thank you. You Are Amazing ⚘⚘
Don't know if you ladies, you DIY creators, know what a beautiful service you provide for your viewers, their mental/emotional wellbeing. You, Pam (Paper Outpost), "Artie"(ArtieMaze - I first heard about her from you), Eve (Scrapbooking with Me), Pink Poodle (the first DIY video I'd ever watched)…the list goes on and on and I've enjoyed them all.
After hours of watching Doug Hagmann, Health Ranger, Rudy's Common Sense, Glenn Beck, Jack Hibbs...all that heavy, man-stuff...the list goes on and on and I've gleaned great insight from them...after watching them, I greatly need to settle back with my cup 'o' coffee and watch you gals work.
Would you, please, let the other ladies know what I say--every poopie one of 'em--when you have your sit-down, create sessions...they all know you.
Well this is definitely going to be a lovely journal with all the roses💐. Love the fabric and the digitals. Fun fun fun!!!
This was amazing! The journal will be so pretty! I love how you have so many things at your fingertips that you've prepared to use!❤ Beautiful!
Thank you Gayle, I had so many questions about sewing a cover I really needed this tutorial. It answered all my questions I had and now I know from here on out to save my bubble envelopes. Thank you for clarifying all the initial steps you need to do so you get a great result.
Ty gayle , I'm making one of the envelope padded covers very soon , this has been wonderful xx alanna
That lace page is so cool! It would make a pretty cover too.
Another beautiful journal in the making, Gayle. Can't wait to see your lace pocket page video!
So pretty!
Perfect timing! Exactly what I needed to see! Trying my first journal cover today! Thank you for going thru each step. 😊😊👍🏻
That really helps to see exactly how to use an Amazon envelope. Such a beautiful start. TYFS. ❤️❤️
Every time I get one of those envelopes I think there has to be something to do with them. Glad to come across your tutorial. Love all your videos. I have learned so much. Always amazed at the ease with which you just grab that sewing machine and do some sewing...it's always such a big deal for me. You make everything look easy and fun. Thanks for sharing.
So I may or may not (ahem) have mentioned how much I love Cathe Holden fabrics. The cabins/deer/ship/hunting dog collage piece you shared in an earlier video is my very favorite of alllllll my fabrics. (And I worked in a quilt shop so you know...)I bought extra yardage just for me! If it came in upholstery fabric, I’d have a great, comfy done it! Thank you Gayle for another amazing video and the introduction to Cathe Holden!
Looking good , I can’t wait to try this ty!!!! 😍
Thank u, this is very helpful to me. You do make it very easy to do.🙂
I just wanted to thank you so much for ALL your videos, I just found you and have been binge watching for the last week. You are so upbeat and you artwork is sooooo beautiful.
Thank you again!
Thank you, Gayle! I appreciate the full tutorial on this. I have not made a journal cover with fabric that is not folded over the edge. I like that you glued the edges down. Makes a ton of sense! I will be making one from my saved Amazon envelopes too.
Thanks for the tutorial on Amazon packaging covers. I will be trying one this week. This journal will be exquisite. I am so excited about watching it progress. I am also looking forward to your fall journal. Autumn is my favorite season, even though we don't have one here in my neck of the woods. As soon as I flip my calendar to September, I have an urge to write a Hallmark novel.
Who knew sewing on a bubble envelope would be so much fun, love the results and the cover is going to be beautiful. Putting the last minute details on your package will be in the mail tomorrow, excited. Take care!
Thank you, dear Celeste! ❤️
The cover is lovely. I do like using the bubble wrap envelopes to make covers. Have a beautiful and blessed day.
That will be a very pretty journal Gayle! Love the soft colors, very summery!
What a gorgeous cover. This is going to be a beautiful journal. Thanks for sharing how to fix pages that print a bit wrong. Blessings, Shell
Thank you Gail for this video. Your instructions and demonstration are easy to follow and is greatly appreciated. This journal will be a beautiful one when completed.
Going to try this cover !
Really love the cover and great ideas with the Amazon package. Now I don't feel so bad about having so many of them. Thank you so much for always sharing many wonderful ideas, hugs.
Fabulous tutorial!!😀
Looks lovely Gayle! Can’t wait to see more
That is going to be beautiful. Glad you are doing this again. Thanks for sharing.
I knew there was something I should be doing with that Amazon packaging thank you for this
Thank you, Gayle, for the great tutorial on the Amazon envelope cover! 👌🏼Lovely kit from Joey Cardmaker, the little details are so pretty! And of course the Cathe Holden fabric is amazing! ❤️
LOVELY Cover...GREAT Video!
I love the cover Gayle and the kit is gorgeous. This is going to be a beautiful journal 😊
This is going to be such a pretty journal. Looking forward to the lace doily page tutorial. Have a great week.
This cover is gorgeous! I haven't made a cover from this type of packaging yet but I did follow the tutorial you did using this Amazon bubble packaging for tags. I really love those tags and was in the process of making more when this video popped up. I remember in the early days you said you weren't likely to have any original ideas but you've had quite a few over the years and several lately, I especially like the 5 Pocket Woven Tag and of course the Faux Front Envelope. Keep the ideas coming! We all love them!
Lovely cover and great tutorial. Those papers from Joey are quite nice. Thanks for sharing and showing. Hugs!
Just LOVE Joey's digitals! Thanks for that cover reminder🥰
Love this video. Second time I’ve watched today. I love watching the process of seeing how signatures are put together. Thanks nice lady❣️🤗💕🦋
