I have found that cheap vinyl/plastic placemats work fantastically for mats to glue napkins on. I find them at thrift stores very cheaply or new at Dollar stores. The plastic kitchen chopping mats work great also. Once the glue is dry, the napkin peels right off. Then I wipe or wash off any bits if residual glue and re-use them over and over. Love listening to your thought process, Luise!! It always amazes me the ideas that you come up with. ❤

Love your saying, "Don't freak your freak." I need a t-shirt with this saying.

Luise, Luise, Luise 😮 you truly are a creative Magician!!!! Thank you for sharing your magic with all of us!!

Shake, shook, have shaken 😉

Every time I ink the edge of a page, I think “what is it about the tattered & ancient look that I find so appealing?” I think I want it to look worn, like it’s seen some s***, like it’s borne witness to an exciting life, an artifact. You are the only person that talked me into beating my book with a hammer. I will watch you try anything, L.H.

Awwww❤❤❤❤so glad we blessed sashas socks off!!! His music is wonderful!

I just love love love your videos Louise. You are so inspiring and informative. I love your laughter. You are such a joy. ❤

Luise the JJ Alchemist strikes again! Love how excited you get when you’re experimenting 💕 And of course the results are AhhhhMazing! 😁 Thank you for hanging out with us

Luise, I love you so much and I always feel good after watching our videos.! Not only are you extremely creative, but if you ever decide to give up your art, you could be a standup comedienne. This technique looks like so much fun and I will definitely give it a try.

I am new to junk journaling. Your ideas are so fascinating! You are very original in them. When I saw you stamp on the mat I was surprised! The process of this technique was very enlightening. You have sparked ideas in my brain that I can hardly wait to make!

You are brilliant, I can feel your excitement. When you said "why didn't I just use a butterfly" I laughed so much!. I'm going to try this very very soon

Luise, Genius idea for the teabags, I have a ton that I have been saving and the idea to add stamps with the glue is spectacular. Love your creative content and wish the best in all your bucket list endeavors.

I wait so patiently for your videos. You make my day when you’re on. Thank you from a very wet London , England 🥰🇬🇧

Your enthusiasm is palpable and contagious! ❤❤❤

Truly enjoy your videos…..you’re a wonderful teacher. Thank you for sharing your ideas😊

I am so glad to have stumbled upon your post on this type of grunge. It's really nice stuff

You are absolutely wonderful. Your videos are so informative , interesting fun . Thank you so very much 😊

Luise! You are a creative genius! I would watch an eight hour video if you made it. You're the greatest. Thank you

Oh, Luise, I just bought a TH mat and can't wait to try this. I have made faux tea bag rice paper before, but never thought to stamp like this. Also, maybe you know this, but if you tear off the straight edges of the tea bzg paper and then overlap them when you glue them down, the teabag edges blend together better and you dont really see any edges anymore. It helps give a more mottled look. Anyway, love that you showed this. So much fun! Thanks for sharing! Sue 😊❤

💙💙💙ABOLUTELY LOVE THE FINAL PRODUCT!! 🥰

Another fun experimental video, Luise! It is just so much fun to craft along with you as you play in your studio! Loving the February Bucket List videos. You are so much fun to hang out with and so down to earth. Wish I could give you multiple thumbs up! Looking forward to your next video. ♥♥♥

For those that have Dollar Trees near you, the plastic kitchen/cutting mats that they sell are really good for this as well and at .63 cents each, )2 per pack) they are also a good deal and have lots of other uses.

I tried this technique using parchment paper and it was an epic failure. I tried again using freezer paper and it worked perfectly! Love the results.

Watched the video and tried the technique with a twist. I used a ziplock bag. Didn’t have a media mat. 🤷🏽‍♀️ But it worked! Tfs

Wow!! Love this technique!! Live your passion! ❤❤❤

Love it!❤ Such inspiration with this technique! You are so creative and daring to try new methods/techniques and yield Amazing results!❤

Love this !! I Can't wait to try this technique! Thank you for sharing this awesome way of doing it! You made me smile once again!

This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. My head is spinning with all the possibilities. I've been experimenting myself and this fits right in with the direction I'm going. I always love your experiments❤❤❤❤

You are just an inspiration. Your art is amazing. And you are so funny. I could watch and listen to you all day💜😁

These experiments are wonderful. Something I may not have thought of. Great outcomes.

Oh my gosh Luise - this is such an awesome idea!! And your enthusiasm is so contagious ❤😊

@ 45 minutes--gasp!! Very cool!!

Can’t wait to try this! Thanks so much for sharing your process. ❤❤❤

Wouah 😊 fabulous technique ❤ thank you so much 😍

I can feel the excitement rising up in me regarding this process with the tea bags and napkins. So incredible. I can’t wait to get started. Thank you, Luise.

Hi from the east coast ( USA ) I love your enthusiasm for experimenting. It's contagious. You are an outstanding teacher and artist. You are an inspiration Luise. Keep growing!❤

Luise, you are so fun and very good at crafting, I am going to try collage paper with napkins, thank you sharing your the beart.

I got out my few stamps and tea bags and started before the end of the video. Yes, your excitement is very notable and infectious, in a good way.

It’s simply amazing; you’ve taken the rice paper idea and made it one hundred percent more interesting! I just hope to learn more of these techniques that I couldn’t even imagine, from you, thanks!

Amazing! I love everything about this technique and the yummy grungy outcome. It is such a joy to hear the excitement in your voice as you’re discovering more and more opportunities in using this technique! Blows my socks off for sure..thank you!

Wow. I would have never thought to do this. This will be going into my must tries for the 100 day project. I’m going to use a stamp a day, as some of my stamps have never seen an ink pad, including the Inspector. Must start drinking tea. A friend gave me a whole starter tea box for Christmas and I’m a coffee drinker. Guess I can start tea dying paper also. Thank you for getting my little grey cells engaged and thinking.

They turned out amazing!!!! Gonna try this tomorrow. (Have to clean up my mess from todays creating, lol)

I adore when you say, dont freak your freak!!!! A cereal bag works great as an alternative to this time of year holtz mat…in case someone doesnt have the mat

Indeed... so many possibilities. I love hearing your thinking and experimenting/experiencing. This has been a great learning lesson. Thank you for sharing, Luise. P.S. As you say... it may not be everyone's taste. BUT, it is still ART, and I love it all.

Wow! How amazingly creative!! So, so cool!! Tfs❤ Btw, the past tense of shake is shaken in this instance 😊

Luise...AMAZING...about half way into the video I started mixing glue and water and glue and coffee...can't wait to try this.

Happy birthday🎉🎉🎉

Love it! But mostly I really like you! You are so funny and quirky, I love that! ❤ The things you make are just up my alley and I am new to papercrafting and junkjournaling and I mostly see just the same, until I came upon your channel. Yey! ⭐❤

Louise, you are amazing! This technique is awesome. I love how you stumble upon something and then one thing leads to the next and what do you know? There’s Louise with another astonishing creation. Thank you for always sharing your discoveries with us, thoroughly explaining each step so we can learn it too. I can’t wait to try this technique. Very cool❣️❣️❣️ Thank you for you!

My dear Luise I love your univers (even the one of Barbara too) and from about 3 years, I am "in love " with junk journal (sorry for my bad english). I will go on in french, sorry. Chère Luise, pardon de mettre un commentaire "hors sujet " mais je ne sais pas où poser ma question. J'ai découvert le junk journal durant le premier confinement sur des chaînes américaines puis par hasard j'ai découvert Barbara, puis vous. Et là Whaouuuuuu, quelle révélation. Bien sûr je cherche encore un peu mon style et c'est grâce à "mes erreurs " que je sens, que je ressens le style qui me plaît le plus. J'ai débuté par des choses classiques, je dirais même très classiques que j'ai offertes. A regarder vos vidéos je me suis intéressée à des médium un peu plus techniques. J'ai découvert aussi Tim, et les distress grâce à vous et J'adore !!!! Alors petit à petit je m'achète ce matériel. J'ai aussi découvert Sacha 😉🤩🥳🥳🥳 Oups je m'égare, désolée. Je vais essayer d'aller droit au but 🤣🤣🤣 Je sais maintenant que le style qui me convient c'est le grunge, J'A DO RRRRRRE !!! Mais parfois lorsque l'on me pose la question : "c'est quoi grunge ?" Et bien je ne sais pas l'expliquer. Je ne sais même pas me l'expliquer à moi-même. C'est quelque chose que je ressens mais je n'arrive pas à l'expliquer. Aussi si à l'occasion vous pouviez au cours d'un prochain tutoriel l'expliquer à l'oral, ce serait top. Mais je comprendrais aussi que vous ne puissiez répondre à une question que je ne sais même pas formuler. Je regarde depuis ce matin, la playlist intitulée 2 junk journal, 2 style totally differents c'est ce qui m'a ramené ici. Merci beaucoup Luise pour tout ces partages, toutes vos magnifiques expériences et votre sensibilité. Again HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳🥳😘😘😘

Happy Birthday

I love your enthusiasm, I definitely feel it. This process is very interesting. I love your proficiency with the English Language. Don’t know how you do it.

Very interesting. Technique. I really like the idea of adding coffee to the glue. I suppose pattern paper could also be used.
