Since Thursday my electricity has been off due to Hurricane Helene. Just last night it was restored. I am in need of some relaxing craft time. Thank you Melanie! Can't wait to get started on this months project.
How beautiful! And it didn’t seem to be terribly difficult. Though I always seem to have problems with gel plates. Not sure why, but this is definitely something I could give a try. I love the lace, it’s gorgeous. Thank you for this amazing inspiration! Hugs ❤️🤗
Yes it quite beautiful, I haven’t had a chance to actually try any of these. I’m taking care of my husband who is dealing with cancer. But hopefully he will be able to beat this and I can rejoin the crafting journey which I love.
Just keep watching Linda, bank the ideas and then when you have a moment and the energy you will be really to take time for yourself to process all that is going on for you 🌻🦋
Love this. I just recently got a gelli plate. It's so much fun. I did not know you could use collage medium on it. So much to learn and so little time. Thanks Melanie!

Miss Melaine, very beautifully done. I think the way you put things together is amazing. Thank you for sharing your technique and all the different embellishments you used. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing and God Bless you and your family. 🥰💖💖💖💖💖👍👍👍👍👍(🌹🐞🦂🌵)
This is so lovely! What an amazingly beautiful cover. I love the little pictures that you put in. Such a clever idea. It’s so fun to watch happy mail and scraps blossom into a fabulous journal! Hugs ❤️🤗
'Slow down and make crafting time for you' is music to my ears. I want to apply this advice to almost all free moments in my life. And i am not that far from this goal, so that is good. Thanks a lot for all the inspiration!
How fabulous, love how you have honoured the other makers in pulling together 3 different people's makes into a journal making it yours. They are all still there, but now so are you, perfect! ❤
I found your RU-vid channel by finding your podcast and listening to a couple of episodes yesterday. I’ve watched several RU-vidrs in the journal making community for a few years, and I’ve been collecting supplies without ever starting a journal. Maybe, like you said in one of the episodes, I just need to create a page! Greetings from the Arizona desert 🏜 Rebecca
