Beginner friendly junk journal envelope page insert
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- This is a super simple project that can be made with materials most people have on hand. Envelopes, vellum, tracing paper… it will all work. It can be sewn or glued in and will work for any size journal. The end of the video is based on a request to share the decorated bases that I showed in the no-creativity-needed video. Finally, I finish, in my fumble fingers way, with a slower step-by-step on how to create a straight bow. Thank you for watching and happy creating.
Thank you for the ribbon tutorial, for the first time my bow is flat! I enjoy your videos so much. I have not messaged or commented my condolences not because I do not care but because I do not have the words to express my sympathy. I had a great loss almost two years ago and I spent hours daily crafting to help with my grief, I completely understand your need to be in your studio. I hope it helps to bring you comfort, and I hope you know how many in the crafting community are sending you loving thoughts. Thank you for all the tutorials.
I think your words are beautiful and that you expressed yourself in a wonderfully kind and thoughtful manner. Thank you and I hope your crafting time continues to ease the never-ending ache ❤️
I enjoy your “teaching zone” my mother and aunts were all teachers so, your videos are in a way comforting to me, they were always “teaching “ in some way, and I miss that. You make wonderfully creative content! I love the envelopes (glassine)!❤
Thank you very much and it’s good to hear that I can remind you of happy memories ❤
I could follow just only you on YT, you have the best ideas. And that you work in usually a smaller size, I really like. Keep it up, love your style. I hope you are feeling better, and I'm so sorry for your loss, I could not imagine. Sending hugs.
Thank you for the hugs and the kindness ❤
Sell your premade ephemera , I have purchased it in the past and more than willing to purchase it again I love your creativity.❤
I really need to do that. It would get pans cleared for Mass Make March 😊
Your video is very helpful to me. I’m sure I will be watching it 2 or 3 times. I love your work, thanks for sharing.
That so good to hear. Thank you 😊
What a fabulous bunch of goodies! Thanks for all these amazing inspirations! Really, one right after another. A great video to save and come back to when needing inspiration or looking for something different to make. Thanks so much! Hugs 🤗❤️
That’s so good to hear. I’m glad it is helpful. Thank you ❤
Love all of these treasures. Such awesome ideas. I have to practice making a bow! I appreciate you making one.TFS God bless you Cori🌴💕
Thank you, Annette ❤
Everything you show is so inspiring to us all. Thank you for sharing. Gayle also has a trick with a bow you could maybe add to yours. She wraps over the top of the bunny ear instead of under like you do and it makes the straight ends hang downward instead of having one up and one down. Hope that makes a little sense.
How did I miss that?! Thank you for sharing that 😊
Beautiful ephemera Pieces.
Thank you ❤
Great Ideas here! TFS
When I don't have glassine bags, I make some from parchment paper. It works well and I love the sound of it!
That parchment paper crinkle is most excellent. Thank you 😊
Enjoyed seeing your clusters and thanks for showing the insert make. You have a very creative mind. Need to go make one while it's fresh in my mind. Thanks!!!
Happy creating and thank you ❤
Always good to see you!!! Tyfs. Blessings❤
Thank you ❤
So much goodness! I’m going to have to watch again, item by item to make prototypes for my stash. ❤
Please let me know if there is anything specific you'd like to see made. Happy creating!
Love everything you do Cori. Thank you!!! Hope you're doing a little better everyday. Hugs ❤❤❤
Thank you, sweet Pat, and for the thoughtful, beautiful card ❤
Thank you, Cori! Your productivity always amazes me! You are my crafting mastermind and superwoman!!! 🥰 Just yesterday, I saw a great hint for holding that ribbon without using a magnet or another hand. Use a reverse tweezer (the kind that you squeeze to open not close) to hold it in place. No other finger needed. When I remember where I saw that, I’ll let you know. Love and big hugs! 😀💞
That’s a fantastic idea! Thank you, Keryn ❤
Sending ❤❤❤…enjoyed the use of Holtz layers
Thank you, Cindy ❤
A whole treasure trove of goodies in that enamel pan! Thanks for sharing. So sorry for your loss.
My pleasure and thank you. Enamel ware win 😊
Thank you. Lots of great creativity and inspiration
Really love your style. Thank you for the inspiration!
It’s truly my pleasure and thank you 😊
Fantastic!!! Loveeee this very much!!
❤😊🍀🙏🇨🇭🤗
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Great envelope idea. TFS. 😊
You are so welcome 😊
Your premade ephemera is amazing.
I struggle with attaching glass bags & love this idea. Love your layering & decorating.
Thank you and I’m happy to hear this option helps you ❤
I love your double pockets with a spine, looks great! 🥰
Thank you!
Oh so many ideas. Think I will pause the video every half a second and try and make each item. Challenge myself. As always thinking of you. Xxx
Thank you very much Sue ❤
Every video of yours I watch makes me keen to make more ephemera for my projects using my scraps and bits and bobs I have on hand!!!! Thank you for inspiring me!!! 😊
Mission accomplished ❤ Thank you!
Super idea, the tiny envelopes I just love them, and of course I know I need them now 😄 Great tutorial, you add a tiny sippet of lace or something and it looks so special. Thank you for sharing 💖
Snippets of vintage or antique lace are just happy things. Thank you 😊
My gawd woman….tow do you do it! You are amazing!!
LOL. I'm happy you think so. Thank you 😊
You are an awesome teacher, so patient for those of us who don’t catch on so quickly 🤪. Thank you! Take care of you❤
Thank you, Nancy ❤
You showed a small card ,different shades of white with a sweet little card and a rose tag on top. Simple but oh so elegant, a nice reminder that restful spots are so graceful and needed!
That was a very simple, solid colored master board. They are fun and relaxing to create ❤
Another WONDERFUL video! Thanks for all you do and share. I happen to be off today, so I can try the envelope “page” right away. I enjoy it when you show all of your examples…I am the type that can often mimic things I see without an official tutorial, but about 30% of the time, I guess, I need a tutorial. As a side note, I finally had a collection of super tiny lace and fabric scraps (that I used to toss) and made some clusters in your style this morning, It is amazing how tiny things add just additional interest! I am hooked. Take care!
lol. I’m glad my “addiction” has benefited you. It’s my pleasure to share ideas 😊
You are prolific with making all your treasures. Today, I made the 2” wide signature holder with the envelopes on each side. Couldn’t find my glycine paper, so I used deli papers to make my envelopes, so I had this piece to remember this goodie. Thank you, Cori.
Deli paper is a great option too! Thank you ❤
I love seeing all the goodies you make, thank you for sharing. 😘
You are so welcome and I'm happy you enjoy them 😊
Thanks for sharing!!! Great tips and ideas.❤
You are so welcome and I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed them 😊
I loved your ideas, as always. I was very surprised that you answered a comment I made after watching by our video. I meant to comfort you but you were so kind and comforted me. I also beat had a video of your craft room. It was amazing and you are so organised ! It has inspired me to get my space more organized. Thank you for sharing all your wonderfully creative ideas!😊
I really believe that our purpose here to is to benefit, help and support others. If you were comforted then that makes my day. I have a smallish space and way too many supplies. Organized is the only way I can create and retain my sanity. Yet still, no matter how organized I am, there are still supplies that hide from me 😊
Absolutely love all of your ephemera! And you most defiantly have the creative knack. I for one love to see how things are made from someone who has a teaching mentality. TFS and so sorry for your loss.🤙❤
Thank you ❤
I really like this! I can see so many possibilities for these envelopes. Thank you Cori. I am so impressed with you and your willingness to share.
I’m a huge fan of sharing ideas. I’m glad this one works for you 😊
I can hardly wait for March! I enjoyed this video. The envelopes are a great idea.
Mass Make March makes me happy. Good to hear you’re looking forward to it too ❤
Cori thank you for showing how to tie a flat bow
My pleasure 😊
You always have the best ideas!
Thank you! 😊
How fun! I love the glassine bag idea! And the journal you got the idea from at the beginning of this video is intriguing, too!
From reading the other comments, I see I missed that you and yours have had a loss. I'm so sorry. Words feel hollow, but know you're in my thoughts and prayers.
Thank you. The kindness and prayers are greatly appreciated ❤
Oooolala 💕 Love getting to look through your amazing treasures in your awesome enamel pans, Cori..... sooooooo many ideas 🥰 Thanks for sharing how to make the glassine envelope inserts 🌷 Glassine bags always remind of when I was in elementary school (1960's) and we bought little stamps (can't remember what for now😜), but I loved the sound of those glassine bags even back then... Lol... I was destined to be a junk journaler 😂 {{{Hugs}}} and Blessings~~~
The crinkle factor is definitely a happy thing. Thank you ❤
love everything you do! you are my idol!
You are too kind. Thank you 😊
Thank you for sharing. I have been pulling my bird, butterfly, and label digitals and will be cutting, cutting, cutting. I want to try resizing some of them so I have a variety of sizes for different applications. On the glycine bags, love yje idea. I have a large package of vellum envelopes....use whatever you have. 😁
Excellent! I firmly believe in getting what you need and in using what you have. There is almost always a good workaround. Happy cutting to you!
Such a cool insert w/the glassine envelopes. TFS your ideas w/us all. 😊❤
It’s absolutely my pleasure. Thank you ❤
Love the envelopes!
Thank you 😊
Love this idea!!!
Thank you!!
Getting back into making journals , wonderful ideas ❤️ Thank you for sharing 🌺
Have fun and thank you ♥️
Thanks for sharing and inspiring.
You are so welcome and thank you!
🎉thank you Cori...you inspire me 😊
That makes my heart happy. Thank you ❤
Fabulous video 🎉
Thank you 🤗
Love the glassine inserts. Super simple and so cool to add to your stash ❤
They’re kind of fun to make too. That center pocket is great for vintage stash ephemera like post cards, vocabulary cards, tickets and receipts 😊
Hey, Cori. I just watched Rhoda Burks (Burkes?) latest video and she had a trick for tying bows that could possibly help when your husband is not available. She used a reverse tweezer to hold the twist while tying the bow. Now, I have not tried it, but she made it look really easy. Just wanted to let you
Fantastic idea… just ordered one from Amazon. Thank you!
Love this Cori! ❤
Thank you 😊
I would also like to see you craft. Have you ever thought of just filming with music in the background so that we could watch your process on how you craft?
I’ve tried… it’s just not my thing. I’ll break down and do that someday 😊
Thank you Cori for another wonderful session. I am always inspired by your ideas, i love your style. Grr to the bow issue - but I wonder if it’s possible to hold it in place with washi tape? I’m going to try that. And, as for the simple tip of poking that last bit through the loop so it sits in front - Why didn’t i ever think of that? Thanks 💕
I hear you! Another viewer suggested using reverse grip tweezers to be my third finger, so I'm going to try that!
❤
🌺❤️🌺
Cori, you are a wonder. I will watch this video over and over just to look at all your beautiful ephemera. I did make a couple of the envelope things (so clever!) and it only took me three times to get it right...haha! I kept gluing both envelopes on the same side, which works but not as eye pleasing. How is your glass mat magnetic? Mine is not but it would be handy if it were.
lol. Sounds exactly like something I would do 😊 I LOVE my magnetic glass mat. I use both the grid and the magnetic feature all the time. I got it from glass board studio. It was spendy, but I’ve found it to be worth every penny.
@@CoriDahmen Thanks! I may have to splurge and get one!
Cori, where did you get the little black magnets that you used, I have been looking for them. Thanks for your help. Loved this video, now I have some great ideas for my journal I'm working on.
Hi. I got them from Amazon. They are very strong and the handle is a game changer.
These little pieces of ephemera are just wonderful Cori!! Do you have a Lazer printer or do you print on a satin paper? I noticed a little sheen on some of the pieces and it’s really pretty.
Thoughts and prayers for you and your family! ❤😊
Thank you. I have a pretty basic ink jet HP printer (Costco) and I use either Nuvo crystal glaze or Seth Apter vintage beeswax embossing powder on the tops of some items. That is what creates the sheen and a bit of dimension.
Good to know, thanks so much Cori and I wish you a wonderful week!🥰
Hi Cori, Thanks for the teaching. This may be a stupid question, but I'll ask it anyway. When you sewed the glassine envelope on, was part of the zig zag stitch on the spine and other side of the stitch on the glassine? It looked that way. I am guessing that would save room in the envelope as the stitch wouldn't be fully on the envelope. I hope I'm making sense with my question. Thanks for all you do!
Yes! Half the zig zag was on one edge of the bag and the other half was over the edge.
I thought so. Thank you for clarifying this. ❤
