Decorating the Comfort and Joy Christmas Journal! - Craft with Me! 

I love love that you’re using miscellaneous pieces you already had. It makes the process so much more interesting, creative & satisfying than a digi kit/set. I’d ❤️ if you did this more often because it feels much more creative.

I love the plaid ruffles. They are perfect here !! The double belly bans is a really good idea.

It's so restful and a pleasure to watch you decorate up with such an eye for beauty and detail. An enjoyable afternoon spent with you.

Thanks for letting us watch how you make several journals at once. This is my favorite so far. Blessings from Missouri.

So fun watching you decorate this beautiful journal...all the vintage children images are so sweet!! ❤🤗

It was wonderful watching you decorate this journal. You add layer after of holiday magic with each addition. Although I did not originally intend to, I have decided to start a Christmas journal this week as a present for myself. You have given me the courage to try the new glue as well. Thank you.

Love watching your process! I appreciate you explaining the number of embellishments that you added for this gorgeous journal. Hi and hugs to you! ❤

I looove this! Having all the bits made and at your fingertips is something I’ve started doing. Thank you for sharing your talent and teaching us so much!

I LOVE to see a project come together!

Wow I thought you had too much ephemera pre-made, but in the end you still need to make more! FUN!!! 💕💕💕

I’m so excited that you like the glue. I feel like you use a lot less glue with the fabric art glitter glue than what we use with the fabric-tac. Hopefully it will become more popular and easier to get for everyone.

That journal is looking wonderful, love everything you put it in today. That filled it up nicely.

Good morning Gayle, loved watching you add the pockets and ephemera in this journal! It is beautiful! ❤️🎄

Everything is coming together and so beautiful. It’s making me excited for Christmas ❤

Turning out amazing! Love watching the journals come together.

I just did a splatter paint of notebook paper for Christmas journal learned from your video. They turned out so cute. Did a bunch of midnight sky hues. Splatter white and then glitter for stars the white splatters. The red, green white combos are endless. Thanks Gail for showing how to!

Good morning Gayle!! Another sleep less night, so I'm late this morning. 🤣 This journal is gorgeous and I love the fabric ruffles and lace on the edges!! Have an awesome Sunday...💙💚💙💚

I'm crafting with you this afternoon. I love the lace and ruffles in your journal. It looks wonderful

It is so exciting knowing i have my Christmas journal and kit items ready. You want me to abandon my Autumn journals But first i must finish them. 😆

I love this journal already Gayle. I especially love those beautiful plaid ruffles.

This is so beautiful!! I love all of the. ruffles. They give the journal such a homey vibe💖💖💖💖💖

Hi and hugs to you Gayle! The lace and ruffles are so pretty! Having that ephemera done is sure making the decorating go fast! Hugs

Love how this is coming out. I am collecting things to make my first journal come the first of the year. I am getting so many great ideas from you.

Gorgeous. Just love watching you decorate.

Hi Gayle🤶 More Christmas fun and awesome ruffles and they look fabulous on the edge of the pages. 🤗💕

This Christmas journal is wonderful. The images of the children are adorable! They are the type of images I grew up with and I still love seeing them. Can’t wait to see more ephemera made for this one. Have a blessed day!

Morning Gayle. How funny the craft box is my friend Liz’s thrift craft shop here in Denver. It is so fun to shop there. I find lots of goodies there. Glad others are discovering it too. I also bought some of the fabric glue there. Hope you are having a fun Sunday. Hugs💜💜💜Vernie

Love this journal Gayle - I use Art glitter glue for fabric, it works really well, interesting that they do a fabric glue too xx

I love how this comfort and joy Christmas journal has come together it’s beautiful

Good Morning Gayle. 💖💖 Happy Sunday

The prep work really went far! It’s so fun to see the Home for he Holidays journal come together so quickly. It’s beautiful Gayle and it personifies sitting in front of a giant fireplace wrapped in a cozy blanket, sipping warm cocoa and writing in the Home for the Holidays journal. Love how everything is coming together.

Good afternoon Gayle,m so enjoying your Christmas. 🎄🎄🎄

I love how it just comes together so easily with all the pre made items 🥰

This journal is looking so pretty, Gayle. I love all the ruffles and ephemera you added. Hard to believe that more is still needed! 😅

This journal is coming together so beautifully, such lovely touches you are adding. I love how you share your thought process. I probably talk out loud while I'm crafting too, but the cats don't care how I get to the end result.

Good morning Gayle! 💕 Lovely, lovely journal! Very interested in the fabric art glitter glue. Did it dry transparent, matte, not shiny under the lace? You may tell us shortly (I’m only half way thru video😀), but I’ll forget to ask if I wait. 😂 Still in my jammies, hair not combed. I have ink and glue on my hands, tag corners snips falling out of my sleeves and floating in my coffee. Also stickles on my nose. It’s been a nice relaxing morning. 😁 Have a great Sunday everyone! 💕

Blessed Sunday Gayle! This Beautiful Christmas journal is really coming along! With all the ephemera you tucked into it, it surprises me you still need more, how beautifully stuffed! I never get tired of Christmas so I hope you will be decorating more and more Christmas journals, I’m just a kid at heart the holidays always makes me happy. Have a beautiful day! 💖

❤

I LOVE IT

Christmas journals are so fun. I love all the colorful ephemera in them. Finishing a journal is one of my favorite parts journal making. 🎄😊

That is my favourite part of journal making. I had fun too

Wonderful!😊

Oh Gayle this video is so helpful. Seeing how methodical you are with planning & decorating. Is there a video on making this cover? And putting the pages together? Can you please share the size. I am really enjoying your channel.

Gayle, your videos always give a boost to get off my duff and into my craft room. Thank you so much for sharing so many clever ideas and inspiration! 🥰

That's a fun, festive, round journal!!

I love how you whip through getting a journal done, your process is beautiful 💜

Love all the ruffles and lace! 😍❤️ I really liked how the post card with the poinsettias looks now that the glaze is dried as well. That will be so beautiful in a journal! 😀❤️

Good Morning Gayle! It was great watching you this morning fill your journal, love all the ruffles on it. Have a nice relaxing Sunday and see ya tomorrow. 👍🍂🍂🍂

Looks great! I hope you have many many days like you had this day. Happy Sunday. Love&hugs

Good morning Gayle 💜

This is awesome, love the fabric laces in it! And all your Christmas ephemera is wonderful. 😍

Good morning sweet Gayle xoxo hugs

Love your journals, Gayle! Especially anything Christmas.

It’s amazing how quickly this is coming together - thanks to all the prep work you did!

this is such a cute journal, Gayle!! inspiring me to pull out my Christmas goodies!!

Good morning Gayle. 🇦🇺

I love this journal! The papers are beautiful. What kit is it? You make this process look so easy. Thank you!

I haven't finished the video yet, so I don't know if you put them in at the end, but I keep wondering: what about the postcard pockets that you made?!?!

I use regular Glitter Glue on fabric and it works just fine. I think it reads on the bottle that it works on fabric. Wonder if the formulation of Glitter Glue Fabric is any different from regular Glitter Glue? I love that you are using up old Yule stuff as I'm doing the same with my Halloween things, and will do the same with autumn and winter.

Hi Gayle ❤

🥰❤️🥰

Hi Gayle have you a vido from the start of this journal because it is beautiful. ❤

Turning out so cute! So what weight of paper do you print on? Also what weight is your copy paper you use for your coffee dyed pages?

Hope this isn't a stupid question, but I've never seen these before. How and what are they used for once finished? BTW...they are beautiful!!

Hello Gayle! How is the Art Glitter Fabric glue smell-wise? Compared to the Fabri-Tac? I'll be anxious to hear your response! TFS!

❄️🇨🇦❄️❤️

😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

Hunny, at 51:02 you insert a tag with the same child as the adjacent page, I'm particular about such things, so thought I'd let you know in case you are too...lol If not, please ignore my knit-picking comment! 😅

This is a gorgeous Journal. Loved watching you put this together. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day. ❤️❤️
