Love how your belly band turned out. And I must keep a look out for your next swap, sounds fun xx

As I was watching I noticed on the front cover the words “ Belgrave to Emerald “ which has to be something to do with Puffing Billy. As I’m watching on my phone I couldn’t zoom in but it made me long for home. Thank you for your video

Thank you for sharing. Beautiful journal although I couldn't possibly afford it I will try some of the great ideas you used in it. What a lovely story as well! Cheers from Montreal. Take care.❤

Lovely journal and interesting story.

Wonderful creations some I haven’t seen before, it’s given me inspiration to create something new.

Beautiful Journal and Story!

Hello! Just found you. And I’m so glad I did. When is the next video to show how this is done? I have all the materials but don’t want to screw it up and waste resources. Thank you. You are so cool with the videos. Straight to the point. I like that.

What a great idea! I recycle those brown papers when I could be making cool things like that with them! Very neat!!

wonderful story! The journal is lovely!

I always love a great story from you. I love that you share the lives of women who beat the odds to do good in their life . Blessings and love from New Mexico

I absolutely love this journal. You definitely have a style I love. Thanks for another freebie! I had an idea for a journal this shape; however, it is a sort of photo album so not sure it would work for a journal. Lots of ideas as usual from you.

Beautiful

Thank you Melanie for the beautiful journal craft along and fascinating story 😊

Always love listening to your stories while watching you craft 💙💜🩵🧡💚

Am I hearing you correctly? You took your cat on holiday?

Another beautiful life story! “She did it anyway.” What a powerful sentiment. I so enjoy all your stories along with the gorgeous journals you create telling those captivating stories. She lived a long life for that period. And changing faiths during that period must have been a tremendous challenge. So happy you shared this with us. I do hope that this journal speaks to someone who has taken that monumental step of changing faiths. The kits you chose are stunning. I am excited to see the flip through! Hugs 🤗❤️

Gorgeous work!

I love this video format so much. Nothing is more engaging for me that to craft along and listen to a meaningful story. Thanks a lot for this!

“She did it anyway.” Yes!

So enjoying your story.

Just beautiful!

Lovely Melanie, it's just beautiful. Could you provide a link to the Etsy shop for the background for your envelope please? I'm having trouble finding it.

I love your ideas! Thank you for sharing. :)

Your such a good story teller❤

Beautiful!

What a treasure! Every page and detail are fantastic! TYFS ❤

This is so sweet I love it

Nice inspiration

I always learn something new. Such a joy to watch you. ❤❤❤

Lovely projects. Tyfs ❤

Hi Melanie, what a lovely box of goodies! That fabric is gorgeous, just like a bridesmaid dress I wore to my friend's wedding at Leeds Castle in Kent. Also, the marbled paper is divine. 🥰 💛💙💚 When you read Glynis' card I literally squeaked because of the tickets I just sent her. Serendipity at play for sure! Love when that happens. She will find out soon 😊 Glad you like my purse, I used some of my mum's buttons from her special tin. They are slowly going down 😌. Colour looked a good match also. Thanks for all the inspiration in this video, thought the stickers master board was ace, especially the tissue trick 👍🏼 😊💜

So many lovely ideas! Thank you ❤

Thank you so very much! I enjoyed this very much. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

I’m intrigued with how you changed the colors.

Gorgeous rich colours wow!! ❤

Absolutely love this!

sweet project, thanks for the new ideas about printing.

👍🧡

🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈lovely part of the story I enjoy when you read to us very very much 🪆

Great use of the ephemera. You have given me many great ideas on how to use the ephemera from these kits. Thank you. Love you and may God bless you today.

Gorgeous colours! Lovely journal!

Really enjoyed your video

Lots of joy in this video❤ Lovely

Brilliant binding! What gorgeous fabrics and goodies to add to your journal!

Fabulous journal and so lovely to hear Nelly's story 💜💜

Hi Melanie, it’s Glynis. I love what you did with the resources I sent you. Absolutely stunning! The cogs tie in with my engineering background, which is cool. Do you think freezer paper would work to stabilise delicate fabric? I also love how you used the stickers to create a collage with the sewing pattern paper. I’m going to try that technique 😊😊

It is so beautiful. ❤

Oh Melanie, it’s magnificent! It’s filled with so much of Nelly’s story and adventures. I love all the brilliant colors and amazing images. Stunning! Hugs 🤗❤️

Beautiful journal … Still working on mine , a very slow process 😊
