@@CraftyConceptswithErin I wish... I was eyeing the craft retreat Simple Stories will be holding in September but with the past two years we've had, I'm reluctant to book things ahead of time especially when traveling to another country is involved. One of these days, we'll craft together again without thinking twice about it. For now, I have to tuck that idea in my back pocket and try to remember it for later. ;)

I love the idea of using a label maker. I will bring my label maker on my next scraping retreat. I thought I'd also mention a few tricks I've used. When using your printer, if you don't want black text you can change the colour of the text (assuming you have a colour printer) and often there is a setting for vellum. I've also found my handwriting looking nicer if I use a marker with a chisel tip, it will be a bit larger mind you. Finally, if there isn't much to journal I will sometimes use micro-sized sticker letters. It is tedious and you will need to use a tweezer but it gives a different look. Love watching your videos. Please don't stop they are always inspiring.

These are really great tips and I appreciate you sharing. I used to change the color when printing quite a bit but for some reason haven't done that in a while. I liked to select certain words from the body of text and make them a contrasting color so they stood out. I will have to try a chisel tip. Thanks again!

That’s a good tip on the redline tape to prevent other parts from coming apart. I have typically just used my ATG gun/tape and made a gusset but never on the back of a photo. I may have to try combining for success. Nowadays I mainly just work in travelers notebooks but it’s valuable information no matter your style because adhesives are everything when doing any kind of paper crafting in general.

This is by far the best scrapbooking video I've seen yet - your layouts are SO creative and your suggestions are excellent. I saved my daily planner's unused lined pages and plan on using those as journalling pages in a scrapbook for my son. they're a perfect size and can still be cut down as needed. Your suggestion for using a textbox will really help when I type an entry, too. Thanks!

Thank you for this video. I love journaling, even if it’s a few sentences. As years go by, when I look back, I forget the year, how old my kids were at the time, & I love the funny memories that I would have forgotten if I hadn’t journaled. I usually use pocket cards or dicut boxes/tags onto my layout. I love your idea of printing on clear labels. I found the Avery transparent shipping label at Staples & just bought the last one. I’m so excited to try. I also love your idea of hidden journaling. Gonna try both of these techniques.

I'm so glad you mentioned the acid free statement regarding the clear 8 1/2 x 11 labels. I also wondered about the labels you print out from your portable label maker.
@CraftyConceptswithErin
@CraftyConceptswithErin Жыл бұрын
That is a great question. I don’t see anything specifically stating they are acid free. I have had the clear plastic ones slightly yellow from long ago so I switched to the white paper option and have used it for over 15 years without issue in my albums. It still looks great. Whenever I’m not 100% sure about it I just don’t let it touch my photos. Sometimes I add ephemera from travels (tickets stubs and things of that nature) and I never know if those things are archival safe so just separate from photos to be careful.

I am glad you enjoyed the video! Not all label maker material is acid free and I recommend checking with the companies who manufacture it. I generally do not place it on my photos so it wouldn't damage them anyways. The white paper type of labels from Dymo has stayed nice and white over the years, no sign of yellowing.

Thank you! That is such a bummer your printer won't take your cardstock, I think I'd be saving for a new printer. I always look for one that has a rear feed option. Some thicker papers won't round the bend in a tray feed printer. Hopefully that is making sense. But handwriting your journaling is always a good and easy way to get the story on the layout.

Fantastic ideas! I do most of these but haven’t printed my journaling out in such a long time. I used to do that more years ago when I first started scrapbooking, but I’m excited to try it out again with the journaling strip technique. I love the look of that much better than the block of journaling places somewhere but find that I use the pocket cards a lot as well as label stickers (like from Elle’s studio) I stagger a few labels of differing sizes and write directly on them. I’m not much of a story teller and typically do The Who what, where, when. Or bullet /list journal. Thanks again for all the inspiration!!

This is a very informative video! You explain everything so well and all the different ways of journaling on the pages. I tend to either print or hand write on mine simply because I’m not very well adapted to computers and the programs you use. Love the look of the typed journaling on vellum especially.

Thank you Erin, this was so helpful. I've used a couple of these ideas in the past but my usual is a journaling block that I've done on the computer. I've never seen it done with transparent sticker paper, I really liked the look of that. Also like the journaling strips - like you said, it's nice that the pattern paper is peeking through. I'm definitely keeping this video handy.

Loved your video - great seeing all those options and good examples in one place. Your layouts are beautiful. I've used most - maybe all - of these journaling options - journaling strips is probably my favorite, but another one I use a lot is similar to #7, except that I rarely handwrite more than a few words. I will create my text in Word so that it will line up with the journaling card or sticker, print on plain paper, then tape my card or sticker over the printed text, and run it back through the printer to print on the card. I also use just plain journaling blocks a lot - similar to #4 -- print on any plain or patterned paper to fit my space, cut out, edge with ink or mat with another paper or cardstock, and adhere to the layout - yes, very 'old school', -- but I always embellish the journaling block to dress them up. I also killed a printer a few years ago running vellum through it for my journaling, but that hasn't stopped me from using vellum on my pages.

Hi Judy, I am imagining that moment when you killed your printer with the vellum, what a bummer! You are the second person that has shared how you print and then line up the pocket card and run it through again. That is very clever and I will definitely try that trick.

Thanks, Erin. These are great ideas. I think journaling is very important, especially capturing names, dates and places (who, what, where and when). I also had it very engrained in my scrapbooking experiences that it is really important to capture your own handwriting, so I do as much of that as I can... although, the older I get, the less appealing my handwriting is. Ugh~ As important as I think using my own handwriting is, I will also counter that with the idea that it is just as important to actually capture the story - and sometimes, it's just so much more efficient to use a printer. It saves so much time and you can really get your text to fit very nicely on a page that way. I was curious, when you do strip journaling, how particular are you with trying to make sure your strips are the same width (not the length so much as the width of the strips)? I guess, whenever I try to do that, I get too caught up in trying to get them all the same size and it drives me crazy. I have not tried the laser labels... but I think I will! I'm glad to know they are photo safe. I am also a big fan of incorporating whimsical quotes, bible verses and poems that fit with my layouts.

Absolutely loved everything about this video Erin! I learned so much from you my friend! I do have a question and I hope it’s not too silly LOL! If you don’t have a full size sheet of vellum or whatever paper you’re using how do you fit it in your printer and print your journaling on it?
@CraftyConceptswithErin
@CraftyConceptswithErin 2 жыл бұрын
Hello there my friend! That is not a silly question at all. My printer likes my vellum to be at least a 4x6 size, any smaller than that it says there is no paper. I like to use up my tinier left over pieces of vellum to stamp butterflies or flowers on for embellishments so it is not wasted. I can run smaller pieces through my printer if its a heavier weight paper by sliding the printer paper "arms" in to fit the paper size. You can also attach your vellum to a larger set of plain white paper with removable adhesive and run it through that way. Another viewer said she does her pocket card printing this way. Print on the large paper first then you know where to place your vellum (or pocket card) then run it through again. Hopefully that makes sense.

Hi Erin! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent! I got the avery full sheet clears (product 18665) for inkjet printer which is the kind of printer I have. Even though I let my printing on the labels dry overnight, It looks like the ink is dry but it still isn't dry and, of course, smears when I go to apply the label. I tried using different settings on the printer. How do you have success with this? Do i need to let it dry overnight and then blot? I did that once and I smeared the ink when I blotted it . I would greatly appreciate any help as i LOVE this technique.

Hello Cathy, you should totally try it! In the computer under page setup I select 4x6 or 3.5x5 for my paper size. My printer has a slide that you can adjust to the paper size and then it goes right through no problem. Someone else suggested printing it on regular paper then adhering the pocket card over the printed area with removable tape and running it through again so it prints on the card. I thought this sounded like a clever idea.

Unfortunately I do not have many videos featuring an 8.5 x 11 format but I imagine the journaling would look very nice if you matted it on a color of cardstock to match the colors on the corresponding layouts. For example, trim your letter sized journaling sheet down by 1/2 inch and center it on a colored pice of cardstock so you have the pop of color bordering the story.

I am so glad this was a helpful video for you. I have two different printers, my primary photo printer is the Epson Picture Mate 400 and it's amazing for photos. It will also take smaller (5x7 and under) sized pieces of cardstock. I also have an Epson Expression Photo XP-970. It is my all purpose office printer but it also prints photos. It has a rear feed tray making it a good option for thicker paper like cardstock. I can size cardstock down to a 3.5 x 5 and run it through this printer also. I have heard some will adhere a smaller piece of cardstock to a letter sized paper and run it through their printer. You'd print first onto the letter size paper then attach your small cardstock over the printed area then print again. Hopefully that makes sense but if your printer doesn't like cardstock that may not work for you.

Hello Tammy, I am so glad you enjoyed the video. I will have to add printing on a pocket card into a future video. Not all printers will accommodate smaller sized paper but another viewer just shared her trick for pocket card printing. I still recommend you begin with a text box so you can get the size just right. She prints it on regular printer paper then uses removable adhesive to adhere her pocket card over the printed text and then runs the sheet through again. Many printers have a spot for 4x6 photo paper. I set my paper size in the word document to be a 4x6 then use my text box to position the text where I want it. Hopefully I am making sense.
