It’s beautiful!!! Pink and green and everything else. ❤️❤️❤️
🥰 I'm so happy you enjoyed this!!❤️
A little tip I learned that is very helpful when painting. Take painters tape, sticky side up, then tape down the ends. This way you can stick down your project without it moving but, easy to remove when your project is dry.
Thank you Kelli, that's a great idea!!💞
I’m new so I am watching older videos. Love the blue & black together.
I loved that one too!! I have cut it down and it's going into the grunge journal I am prepping for...I love blue and grunge so it was perfect!😁
Ma è bellissimo! Proverò a farlo, grazie!
Thank you so much!!❤️
I like this color too.
Thank you Sweetie, I'm so glad you like it!!💕
Good video. I love using tissue paper in my art. Probably my favorite...especially weird tissue paper. I'm really glad you're not one of those "and then you're gonna". We're artists and having someone tell me what I'm gonna do is insulting. BTW when I make faux leather I use some vegetable glycerin in it after the crumbling as it makes it softer, your hands too. You have a nice online presence. Good channel, good job. You're a breath of fresh air. I used to live in AZ about a decade ago when I went to U of A for grad school. Oh I use matte medium not mod podge. Yikes I blabbering on forever!
Hi Joan!!! Thank you so much!! I love it, don't ever feel like you can't "blabber" that's why I'm here, to make me some crafting friends!!! 🥰I've never tried the vegetable glycerin, I'll have to do that...it sounds like a cool addition!! I haven't used matte medium for something like this either, so I'll give that a go! I know there are certain aspects of mod podge I love and those I don't, if I can find something that works better for me, then all the better!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and my company...I know that may sound odd, but it certainly is an interesting feeling to put yourself out in the public eye, and to have people actually enjoy your company and let you into their homes is a huge deal!! And I don't take that for granted!! I hope I never tell anyone what to do, but if I should accidently do that, please know I didn't mean you couldn't do it your way, 😊 I believe as artists, we all have our own spin on the project, and that's what makes them all so special, unique and beautiful!!! I look forward to hanging out with you some more!! And if you ever have tutorial suggestions, please feel free to let me know! I'm always looking for new ideas!! Thanks again Joan, it's really nice to meet you!!🥰 Terra xx P.S. Now who's blabbering!!🤣🤣🤣
I was a goth in my youth so black and lace all the way and still love those combinations today 🖤 😀😉
Were you? 😊 Then you get me!! Yeah, in my little western town of Gilbert, there were NO punkers, so in the early to late 80's I was definitely an oddity!! 🤣🤣🤣💕
@@TerrasTake it's good to be different as I've always done that very well
@@laracraft82 me too!! I agree! When I was about 11, I remember one of my favorite things to tell people was, "if you're weird you're normal, and if you're normal, you're weird!!" 😁❤️
So interesting. 🫶 I’m in the process of creating faux leather and the colors that I chose are brown, blue and gold. I didn’t search for this video and I didn’t tell anyone what I’m creating faux leather. I’ve never tried your method. I’ve only created faux leather from Whole Foods Bags, water, conditioner and brown ink pads. I sealed it with a collage glue and It turned out so beautifully. Now I’m interested in seeing other methods. 😊
Hello Sweetheart!! I love that method too!! Those color combos are one of my absolute favorites!! I'm sure it'll be gorgeous! Hugs!❤️
I love this!!!
I'm so glad! I absolutely love making these!!💕💌
Just found you and liked your personality as well as your showing me how to use a box to get that faux leather look. I'm just starting out so all the new ways to do something is great. I'm from Ontario, Canada. I worked at Walmart and yes, I was not happy working there either.
Hi, I'm happy to meet you!! I love the faux leather. Isn't it all so much fun, you're going to have so many fun things you to learn!! I'm on a little break right now, we're moving, but I'll be back soon! I hope you'll enjoy all the goodies here til then!! 💞xx
@@TerrasTake Wishing you all the best of luck, happiness and health in your new home.
tus papeles quedaron geniales, me encantó tu video, muchas gracias por compartir. Un abrazo desde Manizales, Colombia
I don't speak a lot of Spanish, and this did not give me a translation, however, you are so welcome! Muchas de nada!!! Gracias mi amiga!!!💕💕🥰 Terra xx
thank you from england, for showing us, great idea, look forward to seeing more of your video's
Hi Carol!! Thank you so much for joining me!! I hope you can come and hang out more with me! I look forward to getting to hear from you!🥰 Terra xx
Fun watching. Thanks. Love the colors
Thank you!! I'm so glad you could come along! Thank you for subscribing! I subscribed to your channel too!💕 I look forward to watching!!🥰
Loved your video, your energy and your creations 🧡🤎♥️ I also like weird 😉
Hi Sharon!! Thanks so much!! That means a lot to a newbie UA-camr!! I LOVE weird so much!! I'm really happy you hung out with me, and I hope you'll keep coming back!! Terra xx🥰
I think you should add yellow and white. It would really brighten it up that cover. Also.. I really like the dark colors on the first 'little' project. But they are both really nice! Thank you
Thank you honey!! I did this about 2 years ago, I really enjoy these so much! Aren't they fun? Have a blessed weekend!! Hugs!!❤️
Such a beautiful cover!
Hi Anne!! Thank you, I'm so glad you like it!!💕💕
I have not tried this method but will definitely try it. I only did Pam's version. Also have not donebit on a box before. Lots of new things you're teaching me.
I'm so glad to hear that!! I always feel like I probably don't have any original ideas, but I figure I love watching different people do the same thing, so I throw my take into the mix!😁🥰
What a great video! You explain things so well!! I will be trying this soon! Thank you from Minnesota!!
Hi Glenda!! Thank you, I'm hapoy to hear that, sometimes in my own ears, I'm not sure if I'm explaining things well. 🥰 I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, and especially that you're gonna try it!! It's so fun and rewarding to make, and I hope you'll let me know how it went!🥰 Terra xx
I love what you’re doing. I’m going to try it tomorrow! I’m so excited. Thank you for sharing this beautiful diy craft 🌹🌹🌹
Oh Sis, I'm so happy you got imspired!! I love making this faux leather, so fun!! Be blessed Sweetheart!!💞💞💞
I love the coloring on this
Thank you Honey!! I haven't really worked with these shades as much, so it was fun!!
I enjoyed your video, it's interesting how many different ways there are to making faux leather. I've just had a go myself but I think I'll try again with your technique of using tissue paper. I'm in England by the way so hello 👋
Hi Allison from Arizona!! So glad to meet you! And yes, I find that about a lot of projects we all do! It's so fun to try different methods out! I hope you enjoy this one!! And thank you for taking the time to reach out! Be blessed!!🥰💞
Very nice!
Thank you so much!!!🥰
Oh my goodness!!! Congrats on 100 subbies, and the amazing response. I am super proud of you my friend. Well done! 🥰💝
It is feeling surreal...I only had 49 on Friday morning! I have a 100 new friends!!! People are starting to reach out, which is a big blessing!! I know I've said it before I, but thank you so much for being here with me from the beginning!!! ❤️❤️❤️🙏👭
@@TerrasTake Now with my subscription, you’re over halfway to 400! You’ve tripled subscribers, in what a weeks time?! That’s incredible growth. Congrats!
I know!! Sweetie, this is such a surreal feeling!! And such a blessing from the Lord!!! My mind can barely wrap around it...Thank you so much for your support!!💕💕😘
Hello! 👋🏼I’m new here. Actually, pretty new to the “Junk Journaling world in general. I’m currently in the process of beginning to make my very 1st Junk Journal! I’ve gutted the book I’m going to use, have been making tags, journaling cards, etc and now I’m just trying to get all my papers together for the signatures. Anyways...UA-cam recommended one of your other videos, the makeup one, which was awesome. I saw a video where Pam used makeup in a similar way. I RARELY wear makeup these days and when I do, it doesn’t really ever include eyeshadow. Needless to say, I have an EXCESS amount that I can play with, can’t wait to try using it for backgrounds like you did! But today I’ve been making buttons out of books pages and now a bookmark for my Mama’s birthday while your videos have been playing in the background.
When you started talking about Walmart pans Aldi, I had to pause and leave my 2 cents. Lol. I shop at Walmart A LOT (I actually have a Walmart only credit card if that tells you anything) and have noticed the prices increasing over the last few months. My favorite cereal went up in price almost 50 cents over a week’s time. 🙄 It irks me, more than irks really. Butttt... I’ve come to realize it’s not just Walmart. Amazon, even Aldi has went up on various things. I will say, Aldi is an AMAZING place to shop if you’re on a budget or just a frugal, thrifty, bargain shopper like myself. Lol. And they have tons of “knock offs” of brand name items that for the most part, taste just like the originals. My only complaint with Aldi is that their stock often varies. Quite frequently I’ll have several of my favorites (like their Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cakes 😍) on my list and I’m LUCKY if I walk out with all of them. Last time I went they were completely out of stock on one of my favorite cereals in BOTH versions. I was devastated! 😭Lol. Oh and then there’s a few things to ALWAYS remember when you’re going shopping at Aldi: 1. Make sure you have a quarter to get a cart. You can always get change inside but then you have to walk in, wait, walk back out. Ain’t nobody got time for that! 2. Make sure to bring your own bags. The reusable type -fabric or plastic ones, brown paper bags (out of your hoard of Junk Journal supplies 😆) or even plastic bags from Walmart. Basically don’t forget the bags. It gets expensive buying their bags each time you go. 3. If you did forget the bags, or only had 1 or 2 with you, look out for large empty boxes. You can use those to put your items in so you’re not wasting money or theirs.
Omg. I just realized how long this comment is. 😳 I’m so sorry! Lol. You probably think I’m cray cray. In which case, you’d be correct. 🤣 You’re just lucky I didn’t expand on the Walmart topic, my Ma worked there for many years so I could go off on the subject. Haha. Anyways...nice to meet you and thank you for sharing!
Hi Alida, it's so nice to meet you!!! 🤣🤣🤣😁 You made me smile and laugh outloud!!! You're the best kind of cray cray!! 😜 Just like me...Girl, I can't go off about Walmart or we'll be here for a week!! But I'm lovin Aldi!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video(s)! I started this channel for the purpose of making friends and spending time crafting with them just as you described!! Thank you so much for telling me about our time together crafting!! Also, your first junk journal is gonna be awesome, don't stress at all, remember any mistakes made can be implemented into your design, hidden, or utilized! It's a wonderful imprecise art form that you can go anywhere with!! Blessings Love!!!🥰😘 Terra xx
i actually read your whole comment im in washington state we have safeway and qfc ,its awsome to be thrifty ive always been that way
@@ginabadeaux9319OMG! Where are you at in Washington??? I lived there for 15 years before moving back to Indiana about 5 years or so ago. Don't ask me why I moved back...still trying to figure that out. lol I miss it soooooo much! Even though I was born and raised in Indiana, I call and consider WA home. I hope to move back within the next year or so.
Where were you born Gina? I was born in Kokomo!!!💕
i am totally falling in love with your channel ,ive done most of what ive seen ,but every artist brings thier pwn cool way of sharing .i would love to see you sing also ,god gives us gifts please share your music i cant sing but i really can paint ,im glad to be part of your community i paint all alone and i love it i paint one stroke acrylic roses for friends and family ,cant wait to see what you make next
Gina, you're a very special person, I can feel your heart in all that you write...and I'm sure your paintings are wonderful...I would love to see them!! You know, I'm thinking of starting a Facebook Group where we can all post our art, no matter what it is, so that the members of our little family here on the channel can see what everyone else is doing...It's in my heart, because I really want to be able to see the artwork of my new friends, whether it be junk journals, or paintings...
Singing...that is my true anointed gift from the Lord...it's the one I have walked in since I can remember, and no amount of bad life choices ever took it away, because it belongs to Him. He has preserved my voice through everything I've put it through...it's a long testimony, but I'm sure you know what I mean, we all have something or things that He has saved just for Himself, like your painting...You'll hear me sing eventually, I can't help myself, but I don't want anyone to ever think I am showing off, because I only use my voice to praise His name. Thank you so much for leaving me such a sweet and loving message Gina. I really appreciate you and I look forward to knowing you better.💝 Terra xoxo
I love watching your videos. You're fun to listen to and I absolutely love your talent. 😍 also I really enjoy long crafting videos with chat away from the craft that's been done as well as instructions on how you do the particular thing. I just made a faux leather while watching your video and it turned out great 😍 I have made them before a lot but I just wanted to make some together with you. More fun that way 😀 lots of love to you and thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us. 😊💜
Awe Sigita, I am humbled and grateful for your expression...thank you so much Sweetheart!! I'm so blessed to know you're spending time with me! I'd love to see your faux leather!! I love long videos where I can have them as company too!! It's truly special to me to know I'm one of those people you're spending time with!! God bless you Sweet girl, love and hugs!!❤️😘
@@TerrasTake thank you so so much for kind words. It means the world to me. Looking forward to more of your wonderful work. Love and blessings to you and your loved ones 😊💜💜
@@StandUpForChildrenToday God's rich love and blessing on you and your family as well Sweetheart!🙏❤️
@@TerrasTake Thank you so much. 😊😘🤗💜
The blue and the bronze is gorgeous and I'm sure you rocked the eye shadow hehe 😉 😀 and yes that metallic green very pretty 😍 though Rose gold will always be my favourite in the metallic section.
Isn't it? I love that one!! I believe I'll have to make a much bigger piece to use on future projects! I'm definitely going to do a video some time on using up our faux leather and suede for ephemera. I adore rose gold in everything to be honest...so yes, in paint most definitely!! Yes, I did rather rock it, thank you!! 🥰
@@TerrasTake yeah the rose gold such a gorgeous tint, I did get a very similar effect mixing up my with rose gold without the shine in my pigments paints...I think it was mixing the pinky/ red colour (always reminds of Terricotta) with the lavender blue colour but like I say I think that was the combination. It's always worth mixing your paints up and make up your own tones and shades so much fun doing that trust me! Use can make your own oil paints using pigments and sunflower oil but it takes ages to dry like any other oil paint plus you would need to add say a pinch of salt or drop of viniger keep the life span on it plus the rich colour. That is why personnelly I just use water easier and quicker to dry
@@laracraft82 yes, I love combining different colors to create my own special look! I paint with oil, watercolor and acrylic but haven't ever tried making my own pigment yet. I've watched videos on it though, I may try that sometime! 🥰
Funny what you say about the pink and green, I love to work with softbpinks and greens.I think your art journal is going to look very unique, which is exactly what you want.
Do you? I always enjoy your color schemes! Thank you Sweetheart, I sure hope it does, Im not really sure how to use one but I'll dive and figure it out!!💕
I need to get around to trying this. I’m thinking of using tissue on fabric with the fabric Mod Podge to see if I can sew up a bag with it. I’m curious. One way to fight air bubbles is to use a stippling brush like for stenciling. Pounce the Mod Podge. It will keep the texture but for the air bubbles out.
Also one year later and groceries are even more expensive. I’m about to buy a bread machine because four dollar bread just don’t seem right!
Sounds like a fun idea!!
Thank you for the tip!!
I have a bread machine I inherited, maybe I'll try to make some! I agree, food prices are outrageous!! Hugs!!💕💕💕
Brilliant idea 💡 👏 I got some free tissue paper from buying my iron the other day going to use the paper in my new journal 😀 I think I'll use my mirca pigments as with water they turn into paints depending on how thick or thin you want it 🎨 found beautiful patterned fabric too in a charity shop too yesterday only £1.79 for metres and metres of it! Done a video of it yesterday
Thank you Sweetie! Not original, but a good one to remind everyone of. I loved it the first time I ever saw it and just had to make sure everyone got a chance to see it. Very cool about the fabric!! I'll check out the video! I didn't know that about the mica powders, awesome idea!! Free tissue paper, gotta use it up!! I love my packing materials!!🥰
@@TerrasTake yeah it is great what you can do with pigments as so versatile. Thanks yeah let me know what you think of the fabric I just fell in love with it straight away! And so so cheap too
