I barely have posted on videos. But I have to tell you, I'm recouping from a year long of being extremely unwell. I had picked up JJ March 2017. Of course, I had to watch many videos. Then the hunt began. The fun. I went to MANY vintage/antique shops. Then, on line, in hopes to find those who were no longer paper crafting. I did very well. Honestly, some things I got were still packaged. Long story, I'm just starting to watch my videos again. You are my favorite JJ person/ instructor. Thank you, and God Bless.
Hi this is Avelina and I love this way of making junk journals. You e used all types of papers and have lots of spaces to write, which to me is the end goal of a journal.
Just tried my hand at this. I didnt have any envelopes so i made them from paper, then followed your directions. Love how it turned out. Thx for the tutorial!
Thank you for sharing this! I'm a beginner and I'm totally overwhelmed with deciding how to get started. This tutorial makes it much easier to focus on one step at a time!
I created this for a friend, my very first envelope journal!!! I loved it so much that I am now going to create another one! I love your tutorials, your teaching style... I look forward to listening to you as I craft!
I really looked for a easy little project. My mojo is gone on vacation and every time I sit at my table I just have SO many half projects I just can’t seem to make finish, I’m just stuck. 🙁 So this project is perfect and hope I will find my mojo while I’m working on this. Thanks for sharing...I just love all the things you make Hugs from Denmark 🇩🇰 🙏
I have been feeling the same exact way. You are not alone on feeling like you lost your mojo. I sometimes want so badly to create something yet when I get into my craft room I am unable to seem to finish anything. So that is how I landed on this video hoping to do a cute little project hoping to find my mojo with hopefully finishing a small project that is cute and adorable yet functional. Good luck with you and happy crafting!!!
UandMeGod Oldaker thank you So MUCH I thought I was the only one. It’s very frustrating when you just want to creative and nothing happens I go home so my day are very long. I do hope this one helps you. Hugs from Denmark 🇩🇰 🙏
Thank you so much Dawn, I really really enjoyed watching you create this envelope ✉️ journal. I’ve watched this before. But, I really really love ❤️ this, it’s really really awesome and stunning and gorgeous too. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags
This is cool! Love the idea for all the envelopes I have collected from thrift. I stopped fake nails, stop using gel polish and the lights and my hands quit hurting and their strength all came back. Tried it twice and both times they hurt and then stopped after a few days of removing gel nails. XO
The black tape your hubby uses, is the tape I use for the spines on my albums. It’s very strong. These journals are lovely. I’m going to make a few for Christmas presses. Thanks for the ideas and inspiration. I just found your site and love your work.
Well, when I'm not messing up maybe. Lol. I made a few goofs in part 2 and 3. It was just me being silly me. But thank you for your nice words 💕 xx, Dawn
Hello! Do you can soften up the bright pink color of your paper pad with a thin layer of white gesso. Use a big brush with hard bristol so you have a light wash...👍🏻
I'm so pleased that you shared this! I've never made an envelope journal and you're right this is just perfect for Christmas. Love it, thank you, Ali xx
I’m not sure if this is the video where you talk about what you like to watch but I recommend Hinterland and The Killing if you haven’t watched either. They are both great! Ordering supplies soon to make a lovely journal that I hope comes out anywhere close to yours!!!! Thanks so much for sharing your talents and brilliance!!!!
First time viewer were here to your channel. this envelope journal is the most beautiful and creative one I’ve ever seen! Love every part of it. so grateful to you for explaining each and every step, describing each tool used. Again, thank you so much, just so enchanting to gaze upon. Respectfully, Mary Dray
I absolutely love this idea with the envelopes and I’m living the paper!!! I want that Ciao Bella paper but not sure where to find it. You’re very pleasant to listen to and your instructions are clear and easy to follow. Cant wait to make one of my own!!
Thank you for a great tutorial. I was looking for an idea to do a garden journal for my Mum for Christmas and you have given me the perfect way. I followed along with you (and will be with the next one) as I create my own pocket journal. (And love your shop on Etsy!)
Thanks for watching! And thank you , yes, my nail tech does a great job. I've never been able to grow nails and have up trying. I've had acrylics for probably 7 or 8 years now.
Thanks Angela! I made a few mistakes in my later videos. So you might want to watch them through and not just craft along. Don't want to steer you wrong. LOL! Thanks for your support and for watching! XX, Dawn
TheBookVandalShop thank you ever so much! I am itching to try my hand at it. Just need to make the time now. Thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. TFS xx
I was browsing on youtube for inspiration, and Im so happy I found you! I subscribed to your channel an love the two tutorials that I have seen so far... I will def be trying more of your projects. Love your creativity:)
I must tell you. I saw this last year and have made one medium size journal and two large ones. Well as big as 12 by 12 paper can get🤣😂. I watched the videos OVER AND OVER again to get it all correct. They are, so far in my life time of crafting (all my life, 60’s now). These are the PRETTIEST and most unusual things I have ever made. I am still adding decor to all the tags and journal pages, but I just LOVE them and can’t wait to give them to my daughters. I put them away a few months ago. They can be a lot of work, depending on what you add. But I will be adding all those fancy extras and give them to my girls someday soon. Love LOVE watching your videos. You make me chuckle all the time. Thank you. 🙏🏻 God bless you!
I just found your channel love everything you do. I live in Ohio and my family are die hard buckeye fans when they r playing Clemson tonight I will be thinking of you Love your channel!
I love this envelope journal. I will definitely be making some for Christmas. The envelopes are A8 envelopes and can be found on Amazon in a wide variety of colours.
@@maryobrien7026no big deal. well I didn't have a clue at all. The could've been A57 for all i knew. 😁 the only reason I even looked is I remembered the A8 and went back to Hobby Lobby and could only find A9. So I was afraid it wasn't the right ones I'd had before. Looked through my paper scraps bin at home and finally found the packaging from the original. Lol
Very new to all of this but I absolutely love everything you have done and am now inspired to make an envelope folio. Would you please tell me the name of your Etsy shop so I can look you up? Also are you on FB?
With the amount of videos I watch, I can't believe I haven't found you until now! So thankful I have and I love these types of projects. New subbie ... Continuing watching now .... :)
apologies, got delayed in viewing but back and yes. I'm truly happy. Gorgeous creation, talent and love listening to you! You're on my playlist of 'Inspirational crafters' now too .... back to it!. Thank you so much :)
Wonderful project! So easy to follow your instructions. I also had not found you before, but have subbed now and look forward to binging on your channel. Thanks for a great tutorial 😃 I am also a big fan of both Wendy and Andrea. Cheers from Canada’s west coast province of BC
I didn't even know a cropadile did brads... WoW! I've been out of the paper game for a while. I do a lot of mixed media tho. I have loads of brads and similar hand issues... a cropadile may be in my future. Thanks so much. Genius!
Hi Carol! Thanks for stopping by! I think I found and subbed your channel recently. I look forward to seeing your creation when you find envelopes. Xx, Dawn

Hi this is Avelina and I love this way of making junk journals. You e used all types of papers and have lots of spaces to write, which to me is the end goal of a journal.
