I absolutely love these !! whats really wild is i have every single thing to make these, exactly as you show them... I havent mastered it all yet... lol... so much of my supplies sit unused, brand new.. hardly touched.. but these, this project, is enough to really get me moving in the right direction... Thank you Maggie... You are a gem. ♥🧡🧡
A retired truck driver? That is so cool!! I'm glad this project inspired you to use up your stash. Thanks so much for your kind words and for watching!
I cant decide which one i like more 🤔. They're all super cool & btw i dig the unedited videos, i appreciate the in the moment genuineness. Perfection is definitely overrated 💚 143.
Ok, the way you are able to grunge up ephemera when it is glossy is that you get some modpodge and white tissue paper. Glue the tissue paper over your glossy picture. Let wringle some too so it looks older. Once it dries, then you can ink the edges. Works like a charm.
Hi Mary. That’s so funny you mention that technique because I just made a video sharing that about 2 weeks ago. Craft With Me - Let’s Make Glossy Ephemera Grungy Using Napkins ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-st868Iy98VE.html Thanks!! I appreciate you sharing just the same. ☺️

Those are really cute!!! To rough up the edges of the glossy file folders is use a nail file. File just enough to rough it up and the the ink should stay on. I have those glossy folders. I have tired it, but I think it should work.
Maggie these are so fun! I love them and can’t wait to try them out! It’s hard picking a favorite but I’d say Original. I love watching (and hearing) your thought process as you’re doing your embellishing…and yes I answer to the tv when you ask for opinions 😊.
Hi Karen! You’re so sweet! Thanks for your kind words. I’m so happy you enjoy the process. It always takes me a minute to decide. I love that you answer when I ask, that is so great!! ☺️ Thanks so much for watching 🤍
Hi. It's 2am and I just fell asleep while watching this video, but I am so eager to see what you're doing so I just made myself a cup of tea and I'm starting the video from the beginning. Your videos are addictive!!😂 Love everything you do! ❤️😘💕
Love these!!! I love how your ephemera is so sorted and easy to find too. That’s huge when you’re making multiples. I love to use up ephemera too. Another project for me. Thanks!!!!!!
Hi Janartable! Thanks…I feel like if I can see what I have I’m able to use it more often. So I like to sort and store my supplies in acrylic drawers on my desk. I appreciate you watching
Hi Barbara! Your TO DO LIST is sounds like fun. I have one too for my crafty videos. I love referring back to get ideas when I’m in a slump. Thanks for watching!
I like all of them, but I think the Mercantile one is my fave. I like the pops of red! I really love the round postal tags you made. I'm going to have to do that.
Fabulous video loving the folders, why not make a template out of acetate of your window so you can draw around the outside and see whereabouts on the photo you want to use. Love your quiet nature very easy to listen to you, hugs julie
Hi Julie!Thank you so much for the tip. That’s a great idea. I’m still learning so any tips and tricks are greatly appreciated. Thanks for the kind words!
You mentioned getting a black mat...if you work with a lot of black cardstock it's really difficult on the black mat..l went back to green...love your work
Hi Josie, thanks for the tip. Luckily, I don’t work a lot with black. I have already purchased the black mat and am really enjoying the look of it. Thanks for watching
You’re right, perfection is over-rated. Those turned out great! I love that you thought to add the eyelets! Now, I have to get those key tags from DT! I think “original” is my fave, but it’s a tough call.
Hi Rhonda! The grungier the better right?! Lol Someone said they’ve seen the key tags at DT but I’ve never found them. I get mine from Walmart. Thanks for always watching Rhonda!
This was a GREAT video been watching you make your homemade ephemera, love it. I missed where you got the mini file folders. Also, a tip for the string make it longer and put a spot of glue on each end and roll between your fingers when dry slip it thru your holes then snip off the glued ends.
Hi Susan! Thanks! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. The Tim Holtz mini file folders are from either Hobby Lobby or JoAnn. That glue trick is so great!! Definitely going to try that next time. Thanks for watching!
These are amazing! I just found your channel and been watching all your videos and I absolutely love your style. I love Tim Holtz and have hoarded tons of stuff. You have inspired me to just use it! I have the dates from the past stamps, but I’m desperately looking for that signature stamp set. I can’t find it anywhere. TFS, Leslie
Hi Leslie! Thank you so much for watching my videos. I’m so happy you are enjoying my channel and have inspired you to utilize the stash we have. About the signature stamp. You might be able to find it on Ebay. I looked it up and found a seller there. I hope that helps.
I found the link on eBay… www.ebay.com/itm/266207616888?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=cjoaI2fvTWa&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=yyenqzbiqx-&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
They are all great, but my favorite would be the friendship one because I like the look of the front panel being shorter than the back panel. It shows more of the paper color. Where did you get the large dauber?
I love them 😍 where did you get the circle metal charms? 😍😍😍😍they are so cool 😎👏 I over inbeliche so mutch 😅 but I am having fun 😂😂 lots of love from arctic Norrway 🙌🌹🌼🌺🌻🏵
Hi Lena.. I buy the key tags at Walmart. But you can also find them on Amazon. Here’s a link: amzn.to/3OXURaf I hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching
Hi Marty, I added the links that were still available. Unfortunately , the Tim Holtz paper pack are no longer sold anywhere. Sorry. Thanks for watching
Hi Tommi! I’m not sure how that would since the gloss is kind of a seal on the paper. Someone suggested maybe using gesso or white paint over it to change the texture of the paper. Just another idea. Thanks for watching!
Hi Kimberly, I do make some junk journal..I just don’t record myself during the process. I do have a playlist of flip throughs of journals I’ve made. Thanks for watching
What brand is that little cutter. I would like to get one. It would save me from having tonrin to my cutting area every time. BTW, love watching your channel. Get so many cool ideas.😊
Hi Becky! It’s a We R Memory Keepers Mini Trimmer. Here’s the link: amzn.to/3qAsN4q I love this cutter. It’s so handy. One of my favorite tools to have. Thanks so much for watching.
