I’m so inspired!! I’m a daddy’s girl. I followed in his footsteps into the family business. I still have him, but he has Alzheimers and is 91 now. But I’m going to start now creating memory books for myself and my family!! Thank you so much through your grief you have inspired me to do this!! Much love to you and your family! ❤️❤️❤️

I love your nails & polish color 💕 That color looks great on you💕

Good morning Laurie 😊 what a beautiful way to share special moments/photos with your family. You are Beautiful as YOU are!! No need for photo shop😁

The Remember When Stamp will look smashing for your Fathers In Memory Booklets. The booklets will be an honorable treasure. TYFS 👩‍❤️‍👩💜👸🏽

Enjoyed watching!! 🙂

Love the little booklets.

I just found you and am so intrigued with this little book! I'm new to junk journaling and find this style so freeing. Can't wait to see part two!

Great way to share memories of your dad with your nieces, I am sure they will love them! I am not great at scanning so I make a copy of the picture then put the copy onto my copier and set it for whatever size I want. Once I get it right I make a whole bunch of copies and make notes on one original which size I chose. Hope that is helpful. Have a lovely day! 🤗🤗🤗

What great ideas, love that you want to try making your family into paper dolls. I can see you are working through your grief in Laurie style. Prayers are still with you for strength and comfort. Hugs.

Waking up to Miss Laurie and a cup of coffee couldn’t ask for anything more 🥰

I just love this style journal! What a great idea to preserve & share memories of a loved one! I just subscribed.. I can’t find Part 2!!! Can anyone help? I really wud love to see the rest of this beautiful creation?

Hi Laurie, I found those Mesh Stencils and bought the “Chocolate” ones! They are all Paris ones, like yours and so cool xoxo Going to play with my textured paste, maybe tint the paste? Or use my oxide ink once imprint made? But so cool!

What awesome memories!! Can’t wait to see your “paper dolls”!❤️

🌸❤️🌼🇨🇦

Lovely! My first experience with mesh stensils was with chalk paint just this spring! Worked wonderfully!!! I had found a small child chair, took it apart, chalk painted white, reassembled and reinforcedthe bottom (my husband said "you know she's gonna try and stand in it"). THEN I stenciled "Quinnie" in lavender on it and added bees and a heart stencil. Lastly I stenciled 7-4-21, her birthday on the back. Making a cushion for it now. I am on the hunt for more mesh stencils now as I didn't even think of using them with paste! Thanks for the great tip! God bless you and all yours! ang

Adorable! I've been using paper dolls of my family whenever possible, especially if I make a gift for family. They love it! TFS the inspiration!

Heard about you on Pam's Paper Outpost

Morning Dear Friend. Great to see this technique again. Needed the muse to get started

No comment on the paper vs plastic bag laws. 😂 Both can be crafted with but what's unfortunate is not everyone is crafty sooo. Cool journal! I hopped over here from Pam at the PaperOutpost ❤

👌💕💙

I think that would be a great idea love these brown paper and inkling also I would like to know where you got old fashion paper dolls there clothes had tabs thank you for sharing always love your ideas Theola

Cute idea, your nieces will love them! Love the idea of making family pictures into paper dolls.I stopped at Walmart yesterday and picked up the glue gun too. I had to laugh at your oranges falling out of your paper bag, I could just see you chasing them too! Lol. Doesn't matter if the bag's are paper or plastic, they have to be doubled nowadays. Have a wonderful weekend!

What a great idea, I think I will have to do this for my kids of my father, he was murdered & they never got to know him. Always enjoy watching you create, have a wonderful weekend Laurie 🤗🌻❤️

Oh and you can lay it on it's side and stop any glue leaks... Best tool in along time..And less than $10.00 !!! Did I say I love it ??LOL...

So nice to have pictures to remember, and a great idea as a gift !! 😘 love the stencils but I couldn’t find them On Amazon could you link them please?? Have a great day Laurie 💕

Oh yes I would like to see your paper dolls it crisp here this morning and I’m not closing any windows either I’m in a sweater lol

That is precious about your father and the trains - his filters were open and free, and he let it go.

Just came upon your KZfaq and subscribed ! You are very gifted and a natural in your talent. I was wondering ...where did you find your stencil for this booklet ?? I love it !!

Love this project! Tfs! ~Velvet

Hi Laurie & everyone. Does anyone know what the paste is called? Thank you in advance

We actually burned the paper edges with a flame to create than ancient parchment t look of old maps!

Love this but I don't see part 2??

Hello Laurie, great to see you crafting again. Those mesh stencils look so cool! Do you have a link? I couldn’t find the ones you found. What a great idea to use your Dad’s pictures or family in paper dolls xoxo

G. M. 👏

GOOD Morning ! Loving this memory journal ! Just one question, what kind of paste are you using over the mesh stencil ?

Sweet how your father spoke of trains his mental filters were unencumbered and unfiltered.

Does hot glue pop off? Does it really grab?

what is that cream you are using?

Is your creative side coming from your dad have a great day Theola

Laurie, I havnt seen you lately do any tutorials? Just checking if everything is ok in your world? Your absence is really missed.

Hopefully by now you have figured out that you need to have reusable bags!?!!!!

Your stencilling is awesome mesh stencils are far over priced! Wash thoroughly after each use.
