Large Multi Layered Journal Cards

- I was doing little late night crafting creating some large journal cards for an up and coming project of mine when I suddenly realised that I should have turned on the camera. So I decided to recreate them the next day, I hope you like the video, its a little longer than usual but I couldn't have done it any quicker.
Happy Crafting

If you are watching this and you got to 42 minutes where you feel like you have to rush....don't rush. We were with you for 45 minutes! Chances are we are going to watch the whole thing no matter how many hours because we want to see the mistakes and the thought process. It actually helps.
Thank you, thats good to know.
Love all your crafting videos! I watch them, learn alot! Your a good teacher, t.u!
💜💜💜 I could have EASILY watched another hour of you making these, while I do understand you wanting to relax and take your time creating. Thank you so much!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it Amy.
I like how ceri explains why he does something not just watching him do it.😊 it doesn't always help to watch someone create if you don't understand why something is being done a certain way. This is why ceris videos are so good because of his experience in multiple areas. With these videos I can learn the techniques and then create my own style not just copy ceris. Thank you for taking the time to teach.
Thank you Michelle
Worth a second and third watch, I am excited to give it a try.
This has helped so much. Thank you for being you.
Happy to help Barbara.
As a mass maker myself, I absolutely applaud your method! It works for me too.
Fabulous Sue
Another brilliant tutorial thank you & cheers from Australia 🐨 🐾
Thank you and Cheers
I agree time is precious however, I enjoy the background chat and the visuals of a real time video whilst I’m sewing for example. Thank you for your video. .
Thank you Lucy.
Omg Ceri those are amazing. You don't know how much that has helped me to understand that whole process I am relatively new to this Journaling stuff so thank you so much for taking the time to actually go through that step by step.
You are so welcome Julie.
Ditto ❤
It's so relaxing and interesting to listen to you, while you create such beautiful items for your craft, thankyou 😊
My pleasure 😊
Magnificent little works of art! I like the idea of signing them as well.
I cannot express enough how happy I am to have come across your channel! I COMPLETELY understand everything you say regarding your systematic way of working. You've helped GREATLY, in reminding me that this, too, is how my brain works, so now it's so much easier for me to create things like this! Thank you so much! I love and appreciate all of your videos, and I look forward to watching more 😊💕💕
I'm so glad and welcome to my channel
💞💞
Very relaxing. I like how you picked out each type of ephemera for each card. Mesmerizing to watch. Thanks
You are so welcome Suzy
I love your systematic approach - number, number, number / ticket, ticket, ticket / etc. I take FOREVER to decorate ephemera because I'm fishing through everything for every element. I know this will help me be more productive! Thank you.
It definitely helps me produce more in a shorter amount of time.
I so enjoy watching you create the multiple layers. It’s magic😊
Thank you so much Ludmila
Par vos magnifiques créations, vous contribuez à la Beauté du Monde !❤ Merci ⚘️ beaucoup pour cela qui est si précieux à mes yeux ❤
I love watching you create. I am so inspired I will try to make some of these tomorrow. Thank you for sharing❣️
Have fun!
Gee Ceri you are just brilliant and how you put thing together just beautiful, as i have said 💞💞💞💞your videos and especially the time you take too explain it too us , thank you
Thank you so much Jan
I came across you channel this evening and i just love you. Your work is wonderful, I love how you talk to us throughout the video. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am a big fan, thank you so much. Have a great day. From Australia
Thank you so much Sole and welcome to my channel
I love your collage process! I have not been brave enough in my 7 years of journal making to attempt a collage. I see them here on CZcams and places like Pinterest and just love the look. Mind you, I "collaged" fabrics when my girls were little, making them one-of-a-kind clothing until they became teenagers. And now I do the same for my grandchildren. But you, sir, are guiding me out of my comfort zone with your straightforward, step-by-step process. As I am writing this, I am realizing what is holding me back: instructions. Sewing patterns come with instructions. Abstract art does not. What you have done is create a formula for those of us whose brain functions in a logical, point A to point B way to build a piece of art from the ground up without the chaos of throwing down a bunch of pieces and hoping it turns out good. Thank you!
I must admit I have a very systematic brain, I function best with structure. Good luck and have fun.
Very, very nice! I’ve learned something new which is always a positive. 🤗
Great news Debbie.
I appreciate how you feel about the nature of paper. I spent 40 yrs in magazine/commercial printing & developed a love of paper. Your sense of balance for color & texture is wonderful. Thank you!
Love this as i get stuck on how to cover/make tags. i generally just cover with beautiful/ interesting papers then dont want to put too much on top. Thank you
I so enjoyed working on my own cards as I listened to you working through your process!
Yay, thank you!
Thank you SO much for taking the time to share this creative process with us.
This kind of collage is something I have admired from afar but never felt able to do: I felt it was mentally too "messy." Seeing you demonstrate your order and method makes it immediately achievable for me, and I look forward to using this technique.
I'm mostly a card-maker, and already making my 2023 Christmas cards. I think some of them will use collage like this- which will certainly make them unusual!
Thank you again, Ceri.
Thank you Mary, they do make interesting card front, have fun with it.
I have just watched this twice & will watch a third time while taking notes! Your discussion on how to make a master board was very clear & will help me be more successful with that task. I’m intrigued by your system of little boxes that you bring out in order to help with the layers of of ephemera. I may not be quite so organized, but I think it’s a process from which I would benefit! I really liked your idea of looking into the piece of art to ponder it’s meaning, & of how all those layers produce a deeper understanding of the piece itself! That’s fantastic & here I thought it was just a silly little card! I think your boxes of various ephemera gives a bit of structure to one’s creativity & at least for me, that can’t hurt! I loved it when you cut the one card into two, wow, I thought, you can do that?! Thank you for such a thought provoking video, please make more! Erica❤
Thank you Erica, just remember it’s your creation so there are no rules other than those you set yourself.
😊Things hop on the floor for me as well every time I craft! Seems like my floor has a magnet sometimes! Enjoyed the video!!
Love, love, love!!
Thank you Gwen
Just found your channel and loving it. I love the pace and the hour I’m watching is the most relaxing of my day. Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you and welcome to my channel.
Really like watching you do these..
Thank you Carol
Love love love these cards, you also explained well. Things finally make more sense to me. My next journal will be better and will show who I am, things I like. This whole idea is very healing for me. Thanks so much.
Lucy and thats important, I create because its good for my mind and calms me….normally.
This is the best collage process I have ever seen. It is also the neatest! 😊 love everything about it. All of the pieces turned out wonderful!
Thank you so much Trish.
Not sure how I came upon your videos, just started watching, was not even interested in this type of crafting, but I'm hooked. I love it! I've commented on each of the three I watched and I have 2 more in the queue to watch tomorrow. Thanks again! I've never seen how it was done, nor the thought behind each of your masterpieces. As I said.. I'm hooked and may just try my hand at it.
Awesome, Thank you Linda and welcome to my channel
I like that you cut a piece off that card into a tag because now I know I can do that too and it’s ok 😊❤
Wonderful
I love the idea of mass making ephemera. I love watching your process...thanks again Ceri for the inspiration...I am attending a craft day with friends this weekend and I will be making tags like this.
Wonderful Terri, have fun.
As others have said, it's magical. I loved this and so helpful. Thanks for taking the time to share your art with so many. I sure have a lot of video watching in my future. Have a great day.
Thank you so much Robin.
You have become one of my top creators to watch. I am new to journaling and you make the process understandable and enjoyable to watch. I am learning so much and wanted to thank you so very much for sharing your thought process, which I can relate to.
I’m so happy to hear that thank you.
Your work is absolutely stunning.Subscribed.
Thank you so much and welcome to my channel.
Looooved this video, thanks Ceri, I have a batch of tags made from a Ceri-inspired master board that I now need to put some Ceri-inspired finishing touches on. I love that so much of what you do doesn’t cost a fortune to create with 😊❤
Wonderful Debbie.
Ceri, this is the second time I’ve watched this video and I enjoyed it just as much as I did the first time I watched it. I love the way you explain things in a professional yet down-to-earth way. Keep doing what you do and keep making these wonderful videos. 😊
Wow, thank you, I’ll keep doing it as long as I’m able.
I like the way you work the master board to do journal cards.
Thank you I need to do more of that process as I’m running low on my stash of journal cards.
Oh Ceri, what a wonderful lesson for a beginner like me. I finally subscribed to your challenge after hearing about you all the time from Gayle Agostinelli. Thank you for sharing your process. I really enjoyed it! 😊
Thank you Barbara and welcome to my channel.
I look forward to all your videos. I have learned so much as like your methodical way you collage. I feel like after watching you, even I can make something beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome!
Wow ceri! Such an interesting structured way to approach creativity. Delightful!
It may not work for everyone but it works for me.
I'm definitely more interested in these gorgeous journaling cards than your gluing.
Exactly what I thought, thank you Jesse
Love your process Teri, I, too could have watched you for another hour or two! You are the best!
Thank you Diane, I plan to do more of these type of videos this year as theres so many people requesting them
Thank you so very much for this very inspirational and highly artistic process which is yours entirely. This was so very clever how each section was created and you instinctively always move along quickly. I admire that in your approach. Thank you again for helping us to learn a new way of getting more accomplished. K
Thank you so much, have fun creating.
@@CeriGriffiths I shall thank you! ☀️☺️☀️
Ce que vous créez est juste MAGNIFIQUE CEri !❤❤❤ Bravo !
Enjoyed your video a lot. The way you are building your collages is really interesting. Also your gluebook. 🙋🏼♀️
Thanks so much! 😊
Another tip, get a cheap bowl and put a lightly damp sponge and when you get glue fingers wipe your fingers on it
I saw that from Nicole relax cut glue channel. She does glue books, master boards, ATCs and post cards
Funny you should mention that I was watching one of Nicoles videos two days ago and saw her do that with a bowl and sponge. Great tip.
Aloha Ceri! Great journal cards. 🤙❤
I am just starting out. I have VERY FEW scraps, junk, etc. How do I get started making projects? Help! Love your work, and love that you are able to talk throughout a whole hour video! Now, that's talent!😲🥴😆 (I am just messing with you.) To be honest, it's nice that you do it because you are sharing, not just rambling. I don't get bored because I am learning. Thank you, thank you. Really. 🤗💕✌️
Thank you, if you’re on a budget then there are things you can do with just a scissors, glue stick, needle and thread…..items most households have access to, do a search on CZcams for junk journals you’ll have lots of journal making videos come up but you’re looking for videos where they make a true junk journal which is made from found items and free things you can collect such as catalogues, junk mail, free magazines from the grocery store. I did make a video showing how to create a journal from a cereal box, it’s kind of a junk journal and the video may help you understand the principal of making that type of journal. czcams.com/video/I0_MrpwVcYs/video.htmlsi=jde1vhLKj7iejAT8 once you start looking around you’re likely to find stuff you can use everywhere. Even if you just find an old book or magazine and use it as a glue book, meaning you cut images from free magazines and glue them onto pages it will help you start you’re creative journey. The creative world is full of products which everyone thinks they have to buy but in years gone by there were few products and little money so people adapted and made do, if you use that approach you’ll be amazed at what you can do with what you already have. Also we are fast approaching Christmas, there’ll be packaging, wrapping paper, greetings cards, possibly ribbon all are great resources……most of us have great fun grabbing discarded items at Christmas as we see the potential in them that others don’t. Good luck.
Love it
Love this!!! I'm going give it a try. I love your methodology. It just makes sense to me.
Thank you
Thank you for your inspiration.
You are so welcome Lucy
I am delighted with my end result. I created along with you and learned so much! Thank you Ceri!
Great job Jayne thank you
Beautimous
Great idea, thanks Ceri.
Thank you
Hi Ceri, I watch your friend Gai all the time…and have on.y watched Tim once …but most people I watch mention him…lol . Love watching your process. Happy crafting!
Thank you
Love your etsy shop. Beautiful work.
Thank you, I have to create some new products but I never seem to have enough time.
@@CeriGriffiths That's ok. There's enough to keep me busy for a bit. :)
Lovely crafting. I Will have to try this
Have fun Cindy
Fantastic 💯🥰🥰🥰
Thanks 🤗 Barb
Lol…love the senior moment! Glad I am not the only one who has them!😁👍
Lol..we’re not alone.
😊I loved that! Watched it from end to end...and even rolled it back a few times. I've not done this, ever. But I think it might get me back on track.(Lyn)
Fabulous.
This video was so helpful! Thanks so much!
You're so welcome!
Each and every one of these is a work of art in and of itself! I'm so in love.
Thank you
really enjoyed these
Thank you June.
Thank you so much for sharing. It makes things so clear. I started on some cards but got stuck after the first round. Now I know you just have to have a routine and also use your creativety. I don't know if I wrote that down right. Anyway, thank you again!
I totally understand, thank you
I enjoyed watching you collage. I do love collage. Loved it all! Thanks for sharing your talent!
Thank you Martha
This is my first time watching a video of yours and I’m really enjoying your process and your style.
Thank you so much Vanessa
Fabulous journal cards, Ceri. You never cease to awe and inspire. Thank you.
Thank you so much Anna
I’m so happy to find you! Gayle mentioned you so I immediately subscribed. You are fantastic.
Oh thank you!
Another enjoyable video .. the finishing touches amazes me how they finally turn out
Thank you very much Maureen.
Great info as always Ceri to watch your process (& very interesting that you're starting to make videos on the basis of what you know you're going to be asked :) For what it's worth, I use my printer to occasionally print interesting b&w digitals that don't have to be 'precise looking' and color them myself -- for anything exotic I e-mail them to a local print shop & they color print them for about 50 cents a page, not often so a couple of dollars here & there is much more prudent than investing in a color printer.
Good idea.
...So, you email to a printer... Then, they send them back to you through the mail? Post office, I mean. (Sorry, if my question sounds a little stupid. I have cognitive issues because of my Fibromyalgia. Today, I think my brain left the station without me! 😆 Gotta laugh. What else can I do?)
Wow, Ceri! Another well done video😂 explaining and showing your collage technique and showing what works and what does not. I especially liked towards the end, how you decided to cut the card into a tag and card because of a positioning dislike. I feel so bad for you when you make your videos and you feel the need to apologize to the person or persons who feel you didn’t do something the right way, or the sound wasn’t just so, or whatever else they decided to have an issue with! I’ll bet you the majority of those complainers couldn’t even do a video on here and get people to watch it….they always gotta bring people down ….Ceri, I would like it if you wouldn’t give those people your energy by even acknowledging whatever their issue is….they can pound salt and go cry on someone else’s page. You, your work, your technique, your everything is perfect, no issues at all!!!
Thank you for the support and happy new year.
I very much enjoyed this video. I hope it’s OK-I did screenshots at the end when you showed each journal card and the tag. I plan to use them as inspiration!
All good
Beautiful
Thank you Lynne
I found this video really useful. Tyfs ❤
You’re welcome 😊
Fab video cer, love your approach. 1 of my favourite things to do making master boards
Yes Helen and that reminds me I need to make some more of those to use up some scraps.
@@CeriGriffiths its a never ending battle
Love this Ceri. Thank you for your inspiration.
You are so welcome Pat
I like spring and Autumn too. Great video. I know what I can do with my 12x12 that I’m not to keen on. Thank you.
Wonderful
#ceri I think you are such a enormous personality. You will definitely be a huge you tube dude if you keep making videos. I suggest doing a challenge, like a 30 or 60 day challenge and create a hash tag for it for instagram etc. Crafters luv them and u would attract a ton of subscribers I think. You are a presumptuous larger than life personality style.... that sounds negative but I think that is why I love to watch you and I yell at you too! Great luck building your brand and doing well at bigger and better things! I think you are smart enough to go farther than just you tube...you have my vote anyhow!!! Thanks for the wonderful content!
Thank you Stephanie, I'll definitely take onboard your challenge idea.
Your wonderfully methodical approach to mass making is grand. So many ideas shared. I particularly like the way you finished the backs, as well as stamping/signing the back. Thank you.
Thank you so much Anne
Another great video thanks Ceri. You always inspire me. Thank you.
I'm so glad, thank you
Loved watching the process
Thank you Sherry.
Excellent! I ❤ your process. Thanks Ceri 😊
Thank you Lisa.
That was fun watching you create. I love all the layers
Me too, Brenda.
Great project! ❤️
Thank you! 😊
Absolutely loved every second of this make❤️❤️
Thank you Brooke.
Loving these!!! Hopefully soon I'll try this. Thank you for showing us, I do talk to myself when crafting hehehe. Since I was gifted a corner punch, it's just more fancy, my opinion 😁
Love it, thank you
@@CeriGriffiths I tried it today but forgot to cut it first then decorate 🤣🤷🏻♀️
Your instincts are perfect! Beautiful cards!
Thank you so much
It was so enjoyable to watch you create Ceri. Your journal cards are beautiful. Looking forward to hearing more about your collage challenge.
Thank you so much, I’ll announce roughly the end of June ready to start in July.
Oh my goodness, I love this video. These tags are wonderful.
Thank you so much Jean
I really enjoyed watching this and seeing your process. So interesting ❤️
Thank you Joey, have fun creating.
Spectacular! I really enjoyed seeing all of the style of numbers, ephemera, papers, colors you threw together to make these incredible works of art! It’s amazing! As I gather my goodies to start this new adventure ideas float in my head as I watch your process. Thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you so much and you’re welcome Katie
Wow, Ceri!!! I love, love, love this video!!! I love how your journal cards turned out and I really appreciate you sharing your process. I know this is a video that I will come back to time and time again. Thank you so much!!! ❤❤
Fabulous news thank you
I love how things come together in the end. Love the cards. Nice colors and ephemera.
Thanks so much Jose.
I’m so happy I found you Ceri, you help me create. I’m so new at this. I love you and your channel. 🌱💛
Thank you Patricia and welcome to my channel.
Thank you Ceri! This is a fabulous process for creating journal cards- it makes so much sense in my brain. I really like the idea of a monthly challenge. I work full time and the weekly challenges stress me out as well.
Thank you Valori.
Ciao.Mi sono appena iscritta. Le tue creazioni sono semplicemente fantastiche!!!😊
Thank you and welcome up my channel.
@@CeriGriffiths grazie. E' un vero piacere
