I was really looking forward to this video. And we were not disappointed. I absolutely love that first card with the little girl. So adorable.
So glad you answered Lin's question!!! Thanks for sharing these ideas!
Gayle thank you so much for the ideas! The playing cards of what to do with them always baffled me. Take care ❤
Having fun just watching your videos, learn something new each time.
Yes! That mushroom IS Just PERFECT! LOVE IT!
Gayle! Forget Netflix, I just watch your channel and can’t sleep at night because I am so inspired. Can I go on vacation with you, so I don’t go into withdrawal!
I love these cards, Gayle. I've been watching your videos for a while and I really enjoy learning your techniques for junk journals.
I love it when you say, "thats ok" when something doesn't work. this is where I tend to get discouraged and overwhelmed, but when I hear you say this, it is so calming and a good reminder that this is a process and it can take time. Thank you!
What a cute little girl on the journal card. Love the bunny one too.
Those all turned out beautiful Gayle. I love them all.
Thanks for the reminder and for sharing. and I LOVE everything you do!
I love how it all falls together and looks great.
Hello Gayle...always enjoy watching your videos....love your laugh...you inspire me...
Bunneeeeebummm!! I love that little pfouffy bunny butt stamp, it cracks me up! And I crack up when you crack yourself up! 😂🤣🤗
That little bunny bum was perfect on the back of that card! So cute!! I’m glad you could use the Decopauge book. 😁💜👍🏻
I love it! Thank you Sammi! ❤️
Gayle Agostinelli of course you’re very welcome. 😁💜
Fun things! Playing with only Happy Mail. Great things. 🤗🐰
This was a neat idea!!🤩 It showed me what I could do with playing cards also. I ordered some vintage things from Etsy once and it was old childhood game pieces, cards from games, actual board game box pieces and book pages. I had fun just arranging them and and placing them into a ( Junk Journal as I call it🤩 ) Journal like they were. They had so much character and were so much fun to to look at like that were😊!! I had fun doing it as a New Crafter🤩!! This video just showed me what else to do with items like that and dress them up, thanks Gayle 🤗!!
The playing card with the napkin is cute thank you for sharing
Gayle, I love that you talked about making a project to use up items you’ve saved. My creative group talked about that very thing last weekend.
Thank you for saying hello to me. Hearing it makes me sit up a little straighter!❤️I recently gave away a journal I made and wanted to share with you that my friend said I’m impressed! I told her “my friend Gayle helped me” lol~little did they know. Thank you from Oklahoma to Montana!❤️
Love it, Trish! So glad your friend liked it and so glad we could craft together to make it! Haha! 😂❤️
I was coffee dying paper yesterday afternoon and finished this morning! And then I turned your video on! Thanks you so much for all your inspiration!
Must have been a day for coffee dying paper as did some yesterday as well.
Hi Gayle , love your altering your cards , I've been art room cleaning up and found a stash of recipe cards I had started to alter to make a journal from and worked alongside you on these cards.
Oh my gosh! I only sent the cards to you about two weeks ago, and here you are, already tackling my request. Thank you so very much, Gayle! So many wonderful ideas, and the cards turned out great. I especially liked your coffee-dyed backing assembly line. I will no longer be intimidated by the cards in my stash. The Family Life card is from an unopened game I found at a thrift shop (just $1.99, I think). It's called "Life Times: 1950's edition", and is chock-full of great 50's photos (I'm pretty sure I know where some of these are going). Again, thank you for all the creativity you share. I'm looking forward to part two.
Thank you so much, Lynn, for the request and the wonderful happy mail goodies! Sounds like a lot of folks wondered what to do with game cards! Thanks for asking! ❤️
I love all your files of ephemera. And the videos are good too!
I got a lovey patterned plastic del. bag so I tried to modpodge a bit of napkin on it and I was so suprised when it stayed on it is great to just have a go at something new I love watching you craft I get so much inspiration from you thanks for sharing have a blessed day Nicole UK
Really fun projects just adorable transformations. Tyfs
all of these are great! my favorite is the one with the little girl
I have oodles of cards and this is a great idea, I haven't done atc's in a long tine! Thanks for the reminder and for sharing😊
Very fun video...cute little cards!
Super cute and super helpful!!! TFS 😻xx
Hmm mushrooms?.......... Lets see. Oh, we made a lovely Chicken Stroganoff with them, yum. LOL So, sweet the bunny bum stamp. Thank you for sharing your creating with us. Cheers, Deb xxxooo
Fun video Gayle thanks for the inspiration. 🤗
I’m so glad I came across this video I’ve wanting to this but just haven’t come a style I like,thanks for the tutorial ❤️🙏
As always Gayle, thank you so much for all the inspiration and fun! It is a joy to watch you craft ♥️
Hi from the new lady on the block! :) Of course, being new to journaling, I have no ephemera :( I went through my leftover scrapbooking papers and found the ones with all-over prints et al birds, stamps, mini postcards and in my gift wrap selection I discovered a group of butterflies (called a "kaleidoscope" of butterflies amongst other names for them) My husband collects board games, sometimes he picks up ones in second-hand stores to get pieces that he needs to make a complete game. I asked if he had any cards leftover I could have. He gave me a deck of older playing cards, and also two mini decks (that we buy for traveling, hospital, etc) that looked brand new. I felt guilty about using brand new decks!! (I am very frugal) He said he had just unwrapped them and counted them and both decks were short one card. A habit of his because a lot of the board games he buys second-hand are short pieces. So note to all of you, when you buy new cards.......count them!! Keep your receipt whether it be for you or a gift. It is no big deal if it is from the dollar store or a second-hand store, but I have seen decorative cards that are priced over the $30 mark. Anyway thanks for the tips on cards, I am making all kinds of ephemera with things I have around the house and in my craft room. I have done many kinds of crafts over my many years, LOL. However, this is my first attempt at making journals, Thank you for all your great ideas and your thoughts that create new ideas in my strange mind.....LOL
Wonderful! Thanks so much for this great video!
Ooh, ooh that ace playing card with bird napkin , loooooooooove it!😍
When I find cute cards like the travel one you had, I gesso on the # side lightly so I can journal on it and still have the playing card image on other side. I also lightly sand the shinny off at least the one side, sometimes both. Also Starbucks cardboard cozy’s they put on warm drinks has cardboard already for your crafts! No removal of paper required!
I was so happy to see this pop up on my notifications as I, too, was wondering what to do with playing cards and other game pieces. I have gotten so many ideas from your videos, and I LOVE everything you do! I could watch you all day! Thank you!!
Oh my I love that book
Can’t wait for part 2❣️
Those turned out so cute
You've given some great ideas. I'm saying oh no not a mushroom lol, much love Catherine 🤗
We're right there in the fourth grade with ya, Gayle! 🤣
The little girl card is adorable! I love watching you collage, yours always come out great! Thanks for all the inspiration!
Such great ideas Gayle. I love the way the card with the little girl came out. And of course, the bunny is adorable. Thank you for sharing 🤗
I love the little girl w/the red roses in back ground,tfs
Ha, you reminded me that I wanted those scissors, so went to your website and ordered from amazon...used one click, and as I have amazon prime, took me 10 seconds to order them. Great idea to get that up and running.
Thank you Barbara! ❤️
Rofl!! So much for butterflies let’s try a mushroom....I’m dying here ....lol
O using the AL to get in cracks out of cardboard-great idea! Thanks Gayle, I have some of these types of things and this was a wonderful video for me to get to work on them! Hugs (Robin J)
Those are so cute! Awwww the little girl stole my heart, is a beautiful drawing,she look so agelic.will be interesting to know what family games you like when you were little and now that you have a family on your own. Mine when I was little was Manacala we used to play it a lot with my dad and then when a Huracán Maria came we play Scrabble and it was sooooooo fun, he is the best in that. Then with my nephews and nieces is "Who am I"! and Monopoly. We can't play Uno we fight a lot XD. My twin and I enyoy together a lot of games, we play everything if we understand it.
My dad created his own board game and we called it Aggravation. It the one we played the most and still play it today! ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing this fun video! I never know what to do with playing cards so now u have inspired me.😍🌴
Love everything Gayle and I also act like a 4th grader or younger when I am crafting!!! LOL It just gives you permission to play and I think as adults we don’t do that enough. I know I don’t. Love you friend!!!
Love you back! 😘❤️
Just picked up some game cards at Goodwill & some flash cards $1 at Walmart school supplies bin. So, this is just perfect timing
Another great project !
It amazes me how you use napkins . Love it . The tags you made are so pretty. Thank you for showing us how to use cards ♦️ . You are soooo good at what you do . Your a great teacher . Love your videos. ❤️ 🥰 ❤️
Aww these are so fun, Gayle! I need to go watch some older videos to see about the ‘sewing on a mirror‘ and where you are going on vacation. Work has been SUPER busy this last week or so, it always is crazy after the 4th, and then again after Labor Day. Clint has been making ink blenders as he has time, we tend to have 30 on the list, at all times, sometimes it’s hard to fit everything all in. I was thinking you should put a tag or something on the spine of your ephemera books, you could put something permanent, but i imagine over the months your items inside would change, if you did a tag, you could put ‘mushrooms, butterflies, labels’ then do a do one if your items change, just a thought. You always make me laugh! Big hugs! Chelle
Perfect thought! Thanks my friend! 😘❤️
Love, love, love!!! Ohhhhh.... and next the cardboard!!!!! I have masses cut out and had brilliant ideas, and one night... when I was asleep? The Dream Fairy took them away... darn her!! Now I can play with you and not worry about the ideas being stolen away!!🤣❤️
I love altered playing cards. The Ace with bird was my favorite!!! 💖
I saw a video where they used sand paper or an emery board to take the waxy part away and make it easier to to gesso or glue on after that. I did try it and it worked. Thank you Miss Gayle for what you do. You are such a blessing. Have a blessed day.
I have that problem too ...I placed a folded paper that lifts them to the top...small uneven fold so you can still see through pockets...fun video 🌻
Love these! I was super lucky and found 2 packs of cards with horses on them for my horse loving granddaughters...I used coffee dyed on the backs and added lace, some leather trim that looks like a lasso and a button to jazz up the fronts a bit and add to the cowgirl feel...I was right proud of myself they looked so cute, lol! Playing cards are so fun!! Thank you Gayle for the great video and ideas!
Great stuff Gayle, I love the card with the little girl, and all. The bunny bum, stamp is so cute.....
Adorable!
So glad you did this video Gayle! Thank you, I always go blank with these types of cards as well.
Gayle, if you don’t want jars, like mod podgy to stick. Just rub Vaseline on the top before closing it. That way you won’t have to deal with the bulk. The Vaseline works for about 5 opens and shuts, and then just apply it again.
Perfect ending... Bunny Bum!! LOL ❣️ Such lovely ways to recycle cards! TFS ❣️💜 💚💙🎨📚🔖
These are turning out soooo cute!! I LOVE that "bunny bum" stamp! LOL So adorable! Very fun! TFS :)
On your last bird card it would look cute with a cute beaded dangle hanging from it.
Good night dear, it's Alesia here I love your altering playing cards and especially the little girl she was cute and I loved the bunny bum stamp it was perfect ending to part 1 love watching your videos and I learn something everytime I watch one of your magnificent videos thanks for sharing with us always Gayle. God bless you.
Thanks for the tutorial, Gayle! Super good timing for me to alter some game cards for my baby journal. Perfect!
Loved this tutorial! I prefer that torn edge and love to use napkins/tissue! Every time I see that waxed paper in the lid of the Mod Podge, I think I should do that! The lid always gets stuck! Well, today’s the day! Thank you!
Love all these tags! I think the playing card with the bird is my favorite!
Oh I love the bird napkin!!! It would go perfect with a journal I’m doing.
Thank you so much for this information!!!
Inspiration !inspiration !inspiration ! I have so many now that I can work with😁 also love your organization books. If you dont have a video on how to make one I would like to see how you put that together and maybe I can replace the shoe boxes with something nice. Have a beautiful day.
If you do a search on, Gayle Agostinelli Ephemera Folio, you will find videos on making my little ephemera books. ❤️

Your so creative!!
Great tips Gayle. Love the card with the napkin on it. Funny that before I would put certain things in the recycle bin, but now all these things, like cardboard, have crafting possibilities!
I use tacky glue plus I sand cards with very fine sand paper or emery board. I'm loving yours,favorite being that sweet little girl. Now have to find my cards. Thank you for sharing!
The little girl is the cutest ever. I was so sad to see this video come to an end. tfs xxxx
Love the little girl card! Would be perfect in a prayer journal!
I found that scotch glue stick is better to use when you have shiny/waxy items your gluing to paper. It works like double sided tape but in glue stick form.
Once again another very informative video. ❤ loved it all..
Happy mail makin' me sooo happy! Woo hoo, oh the fun to come! Sorry, almost lost it, hee hee. ;-)
Thank you!! Thank you!! I’ve been hoping you would do a video on this technique. Once again, you’re amazing and I appreciate you so much! ♥️🥰
Gayle I loved it when you lost your vintage photo! I have so been there. Great ideas for all these cards I have stacks that the school I work at wasn't using anymore and they aren't the good flash cards so this was very helpful. Amy ;)
Such creativity! I want to ransack the game cabinet now!
Hey Gayle, I saw you were having issues with the paper sticking to the cards because of the coating they put on them. Maybe try doing a light sanding on the side you plan on adhering the paper to. It'll remove some of that coating and allow the glue to cling better. You can get a cheap sanding block at almost any dollar store or you could use a nail file.
The cards are coming up beautifully, Gayle, and I wish I had time right now to roll into Part 2. But I guess I better work, which isn't a bad thing since my work is crafting. :) Let's see how long I can last without watching part 2 LOL
LOVING THE BUNNY BUM!
Great ideas....saved for future reference..I looked high and low online for that game..not sure if wrong name or just super rare but I couldn't find anything. Those pics were so cute though.🤗🤗💜💜
The paper is sticking for now, but eventually the plastic will dry and then peel off. Cards should be sanded before using. But, I guess if you are going to sew them, then that should work. I did a whole pack of cards one night. Everything was sticking just fine. 3 days later, they all lifted and I was left with plastic coated paper.
LOL, I think I woo hooed the wrong video! Insomnia has me crazed today. Sorry Gayle, I really AM losing it. Thanks for ALL your videos! I might take a nap soon.
LOVELY PROJECTS-YOUR VIDEOS ARE GREAT-TFS-HUGS/BLESSINGS
PS. Got my Gayle glass mat this week from your link. Love it. Thank you for listing your favorites.
Hi Gayle, love the bunny bun 😉
I did this not too long ago (sort of) and I found it so relaxing! Xoxo Dawn
Love the card with the bird napkin and that bunny card . Hugs alissa
They turned out lovely! :) tyfs!
Loved this! Perfect timing. I needed some ideas for game pieces. I was short on time so I speeded you up by 1.75. (No disrespect here.) You really made me smile almost laugh in this speed. I love your soft soothing voice. TFS.
