Your journal is beautiful. It’s so interesting and full of surprises. I think you have such pleasure creating it. Keep on adding, it can never be too big.
Let's set the things straight - bulky because of all that beauty doesn't count. To much more! 😁 Is so nice to find a place for all the little things, they deserve such a beautiful home, not a box. Have a weekend how you wish! 🤗💞🤗
Beautiful Barbara x💗😁 xx adorable layouts and you are so much a pleasure to watch you create..very inspirational, you are one reason I continue to Junk Journal x Thank you and huge hugs x💗💗💗🌺🌿🌺
Awesome!! You have given me so much inspiration.. I've started doing a few copy cat pages in my own personal JJ.. thank you so much for showing your ideas with everyone!!
Good morning Barbara, it’s raining here in Johannesburg this morning and there’s nothing better than cozying up with my coffee and enjoying your video. Thank you. Have a lovely weekend 🤗
You always come up with some new ideas, for me at least 🥰🙏, the bulkier the better 😄💕👍,, happy friyay here,, resting after work and see you all crafting ☺️💕 thank you 💝🙏
What a romantic you are, Barbara! Love how you brought the turtle couple back together ❤️. I often have the opposite problem with my journal - filling the pages! My time to craft is so limited right now. I adore seeing all your wonderful happy mail from your friends. You are truly blessed with special friendships. You inspired my current no-sew journal and I am slowly filling it with things I love, especially special “gifts” from my 4 granddaughters 💕 - the perfect place for these treasures. Thank you again for your videos! Xoxoxo Grenae
Thank you so much Grenae! Aaaw, your journal must be so precious with treasures from your granddaughters!!! And yes, I’m very blessed with my crafty friends and happy mails! ❤️
O sweetie you started out so well then you added more beauties and it got bulkier but I wouldn't worry because it was all gorgeous (ooops.. well I know some of mine was in there too) but I loved what you did I often stick down pages onto the one next to it, I'm starting to have the same problem in mine now and I have loads of pages still to fill... Its funny how my next video will be just this same thing you're doing 🤣🤣🤣❤️🌷 Have a wonderful weekend my sweet friend xx 😘🌹
I know it's a personal preference but the bulkier a journal gets, the more I love it. :) And I agree with Linda A. - your videos are always my first "go to". Thanks again for sharing. :)
I was very curious how this video would go after seeing the titel "Bulk Control" haha, not really your thing. You always make me laugh with your video's, love that misses and mister turtle are together now and really was laughing with all your pockets and tug spots that made more bulk in the journal. It is your trademark, so never do otherwise. Love how you incorporate all your received Happy Mail, they deserve such beautiful displays on the pages. Have a nice weekend :)
Beautiful, inspirational video as always. Love those happy mail you got...and store it in your journal. It’s awesome to have friends who send you some of their creations you can enjoy to store inside your journal. It’s yummy. I would love to send you one of mine. Lol I will email you this weekend. 😉😉. Big hugs!
Hi Barbara. If you have We R Memory Keepers FRAME Punch Board then you don't need a frame die cut although those are quick to use. I even thought of buying the frame dies but remembered I only have the Tim Holtz sizzix Sidekick which I love so the dies I buy are small and variety sizes of same shapes so I can save the big ones for near future if I decide to buy a big shot or use rolling bin and patience. Love your journal bulky and all. Thank you for sharing!
@@49dragonflies You're welcome. It's worth owning. I love making small Polaroid like frames for the small photos I printed out on my mini canon ivy printer. Loads of fun to use and easy. Even the leftover punched out bits of inner corners make neat corner things for holding photos, can even round corners. Although we can't make large frames, I'm fine by it. I was wondering if I needed it at first too, so I read reviews on it and seen many youtuber crafters have it and I'm like yeah I need it! Bought it last year. Ha ha!
I have the "alligator mouth" disease, too!!🤣 It's in our DNA and we just have to accept it (she said as she glued another piece of ephemera into her journal.) I love watching your process & seeing all the "pretties" you've received! TFS!
@@49dragonflies That's true! My husband has even been trying to help me come up with all kinds of ways to make adjustable closures for my journals. They need something to keep them closed... but they'd better be adjustable! 😁
Oh Barbara! Hahaha! I've pretty much given up on fussing about bulky journals--overflowing with love and art can't be a bad thing. :) Does make storage a bit tricky though!
How about making a journal just for happy mail and and correspondence, I notice Gail A has one of those where she puts all of her mail, just an idea. Good vid, mine is becoming gator mouth too! It's nice though
Thanks for the input Susan. I have been thinking about that. Not sure yet if that’s the way I will go. I do have another idea for future journals. Bulk is good to some extent, but I feel like mine has now crossed the line 😂😂😂
A small suggestion.. Before printing the phot you can add a small frame around it using Word (it has some lovely frames available) and then cut the photo using the frame as a reference. 😊
Cappuccino in bed and video from Barbara...best start in the day 😍😍😍 Your journal is really really stunning ‼️ I‘m happy too that Mr. and Mrs. Turtle are together now - viva l‘amore❣️❣️❣️ Wusstest du, dass Francesca von junk journal joy dich nominiert hat für ‚10 crafty questions ‘ (in ihrem video, in del sie selbst antwortet)??? Hugs and loves Sweety 💝
Danke liebe Victoria! ❤️🥰❤️ Ich schau mir das Video von Francesca mal an, aber ich hab schon mal ein Video mit der Beantwortung solcher Fragen gemacht 😃
Gefunden!! Habe 👍🏻 also auch gesehen🤓 Konnte mich wahrscheinlich nicht mehr erinnern, weil du gebastelt hast und man dich nicht sehen konnte... Mach’s gut meine Liebe 🌷🌷🌷
I love the idea of gluing pages together to “lighten the load” of this wonderful journal, but I really don’t think I could have glued the elephant page and covered up that cutie pie baby elephant.
You are so sweet and hilareous: she is lonely, she needs her husband by her side 😂😍 to be honest, I would feel exactly the same 😚 your journal is so lovely bulky... Love from Maureen
Love your videos!Tfs♥ Freue mich schon so sehr wenn wir uns sehn...vl.hättest du auch Lust zu einem Flohmarkt zu schauen sobald es wärmer wird? Werde mich aufjedenfall bei der Bastelgruppe anmelden sobald ich wieder in Wien bin und sich alles beruhigt hat! Wish you great days;health and send you hugs and Bussis...deine Patricia
Danke liebe Patricia! Würde sehr gerne mit dir auf eine. Flohmarkt gehen wenn dieser Wahnsinn vorbei ist! 😊 und schauen wir mal wann das nächste Meetup stattfinden kann. Pass auf dich auf! 😘
Love how you appreciate works/gifts from your friends and incorporate them so beautifully into your journal!
They are very precious to me! 😊

Your journal is beautiful. It’s so interesting and full of surprises. I think you have such pleasure creating it. Keep on adding, it can never be too big.
Thank you Jackie! It is a pleasure creating in it for sure! 😃❤️
Beautiful and meaningful pages. They’re special for you to look at over and over. ❤️

Hi Barbara. I always want to see more. Love what you do.... especially reuniting Mr and Mrs Turtle 💕
Haha thank you Andrea! Yes, they needed to be reunited! 😃❤️
Barbara! This journal is exquisite! I LOVE all the ways you incorporate your happy mail and all the gorgeous pages that make up your journal. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I always love your videos but the last couple with you adding happy mail goodies I've love the most!! Thanks for sharing !!
Thanks Rebecca! There is one more of those coming up next 😃
Awesome!! You have given me so much inspiration.. I've started doing a few copy cat pages in my own personal JJ.. thank you so much for showing your ideas with everyone!!
I love watching you journal in all these different ways. I hope you will show how you sew up your journal when it is finished. Hugs💕
Thanks Michele. I won’t be sewing the signatures.
I bet this journal now has 49 dragonflies from all those cards! What a wonderful memory keeper!
I find your videos very soothing and inspiring! Until the next one ❤️

😂😂 I think this journal is full!! But I also know that you will be able to squeeze something in somehow 😁😉😘😘
Love all the pockets and tucks
I would certainly agree with you sweetie! 😃❤️
You always come up with some new ideas, for me at least 🥰🙏, the bulkier the better 😄💕👍,, happy friyay here,, resting after work and see you all crafting ☺️💕 thank you 💝🙏

That’s my concern, the storage 😃
I really liked how you incorporated your happy mail in your journal. Loved all the spreads. Thanks for sharing with us!
I am enjoy how you are consolidating the pages and making room.
Love your Chuncky Journals! It’s just your style! Love listening to your thought process!

Thank you Isabel, that’s a great suggestion! I was not aware Word has those! 😃👍🏻
I could not have covered the elephant or flower pages. I love all your creative tuck spots and pockets, though.
Im not saying it was easy! 😃❤️
Oh so nice.. That was a pretty tag 👍
Love your videos and your impossible to close journals! You have such an interesting and watchable channel 😊xx
Aaaaw, thank you Rita! ❤️

Great choices, beautiful.
I'm laughing because it actually got bulkier. :D But it's really ok. Everything you put in there is so meaningful.
Haha thanks. I know... 😂😂😂
If I only have time for one video, I always choose you❣️
Aaaaw, I’m so flattered! ❤️☺️❤️
Awesome vid, Barbara - such cool ideas to be tried!!! Pinned to my JJ styles, techniques board!!💕XX
The title BULK CONTROL is acually misleading. Soooo funny Barbara. The whole time I was thinking 'humm, I think thats not working'. 😂
Hahaha it was an honest attempt though! 😂😂😂
Is it finished? Say it ain’t so! Saw your link to your completed journal in May 2019. Almost a year...
Nope, it’s not completed yet 😃
❤️🤗🥰
You are so sweet and hilareous: she is lonely, she needs her husband by her side 😂😍 to be honest, I would feel exactly the same 😚 your journal is so lovely bulky... Love from Maureen
