My name is Toni, I have been paper crafting literally as long as I can remember. Paper crafts have a unique way of touching people. I have been amazed by how many people have saved, displayed or reminisced about the hand made cards and gifts I have given them, sometimes decades later!
I have met so many wonderful women who share my love of all things paper. In a day and age of digital communication, I find so many people are returning to the tangible art of paper communication. Maybe it’s putting a pen to paper for planning, finding an outlet for their creativity through journalling, or memory keeping in a scrapbook. Regardless of the media, there is a beautiful community of artists I am proud to be a part of.
Thanks it was over a year of awkward grow out and it was hard to tell how it was going to look but it’s worth it in the end, hope you love yours too. (Btw…I have a whole playlist documenting my journey if you’re interested in seeing where I started)
Wow you went above and beyond... at least i am not the only ine that think i would sprain my ankle with thise slippers😂.. have you tried the slip scrunchies?
Hi Veronika, yes I have tried them. So many people in the forum loved them that i chose them in the winter box, I can’t say I noticed anything special about them. Don’t like them? What are you choosing in the box?
What an amazing work of art you created- this is more thorough than the magazine we used to get😊 Honestly, the way you have put it together makes it super easy to follow and I kept hitting pause during the presentation to write down and organize my own notes regarding choices. 😊 So far I am looking at the Buttercream throw, the Asobu (crabapple color) tumbler, the DEHV candle, the Homecourt room spray, the Blume (I think) nose patches and the Olehenriksen lip balm/gloss.

Hi Toni! I love your bullet journal that is awesome! We are choosing a few of the same items. I agree customization 5 isn’t my favorite either. Did you get the email yesterday and see they adding a laptop clutch and fragrance to customization 3 now? TFS
I knew the bunting poster would be right up your alley. You did an absolutely beautiful job of it. Love all the extra details. ❤ looks so good in the window
It is so gorgeous on you!!!! I'm 20 months into it and loving it. My partner kept me going when my hairdresser tried to talk me into dyeing again. So glad I persisted.
So, as a scrapbooker, and a Creative Memories girl (at least to get your trimmer!), how do you feel about junk journals being a place where you scrapbook given not everything is photo safe? Right now, my big albums are on hold and I use my Canon Ivy to print phone pictures. Not great quality, but they are sticky and are perfect for junk/handmade journals for fun and you can take it with you to print while you are traveling.
I can’t say for sure! I have scrapbooked for decades and always used “photo safe” products from every company out there. But I’m starting to think about using my junk journals for scrapbooking too. I have done December Daily’s for 10 years and this year I’m going to test out making mine in a junk journal. But we won’t know the true results from f longevity for many years in the future! I use the Cannon Ivy too. Just got it 6 months ago. I love it, so far! I do a daily memory keeping with it!
I enjoyed your thoughts and perspective on this and it in a round about way helps me solidify what I may want to do. I've never made one and have wanted to for a LONG time. I have collected many things to put in one but never got going on one. I have felt overwhelmed and didn't really know where to start. I have a problem "overthinking" such things .I am excited to view some of your other videos that might help me take the crucial 1st steps. Any suggestions would be MOST appreciated! Thank you 💗💗
Hi Shelly! I made a video for exactly that! Where to start. Here it is. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YwTzxo6VmzE.htmlsi=3omjdRTbPjIZ4kDL. I think you will be surprised how little you need to get started!
This is so beautiful, and thank you. This is my favorite magazine . I have saved some but haven't done anything else. I have to get the goodies to make it with 😮😮😮 May I ask if you did that with a pre-made book cover? Thank you ? Do you have a RU-vid video on how to do it ?
First time viewer. Your caption had me at Daphne's Diary. This journal is gorgeous. I have 2 coveted copies, but this inspires me to use them. I absolutely love the music in the background. I get energy from the classics when I create. TFS ❤❤
