I never thought of sanding the shiny paper for the glue to stick, what a great idea

Kathleen, this was a beautiful video full of ideas and inspiration! Your color scheme throughout this journal is different and very lovely. The colors are a bit more than your typical soft pastels but not bold by any means. Your combinations of pieces to make clusters was also great because you did not indulge in overused images. I'll be coming back to this video for ideas for future projects. Thank you!!

I loved watching you use your stencils. I've never stenciled in that way and directly on old ephemera before. Thank you for sharing! I will try to follow your example and think outside the box more. I'm really inspired!

I enjoyed your video very much. You were so organized, having everything ready to glue on to the pages. The colors were beautiful. I loved the last window envelope tug, so easy. Thank you for sharing your ideas.

Love the way you use pieces of napkin. I just learned four different pockets and tucks. I also appreciate that you have your elements prepared.
