Tip: Try boiling 4 to 5 cinnamon sticks when you are boiling coffee 4 color dying, and it only takes 15 minutes once it starts boiling. The incredible aroma will last 4 years because of their acidity, and you can also drink it. Enjoy! :-) love this idea of working with envelopes. It turned out beautiful! :-)
Thanks again! What an interesting tip with the cinnamon sticks! ❤️
I love the new ideas using envelopes! I've been dying paper with avocado for a few months, and I love it. What works best for me is using only the pits and not the skins. I like that the color is more of a true pink and less of a salmon color--also, it's a little less messy without the skins. I don't use vinegar. Also, it's easier for me to bake the paper than to try to find places to dry it. I also like the texture better. I'm no expert, but this is the method that works best for me. Thanks for showing us new methods and techniques. I just love your videos!
Thanks Amy! I will try your avocado dyeing method as well, thanks for sharing that! ❤️
I love the kits from the Digital College Club❤
I once used the pips and skins of 4 of the green type avocado's, and although the liquid was a greenish colour the papers (printing paper) came out a very deep terracotta colour! I was totally amazed.😮
Love love love❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic, love to watch the different techniques. We can never have to much knowledge!!
When I avocado dye, my papers come out very pink. TFS!
For pinks and red I like to use beet juice. It gives vibrant colors!
all those avocados, too pricey for my budget but I bet they were delicious! One beet gives a lovely light pink dye (or canned beets) with vinegar to set the dye and is easier on the budget. I love the envelope book and made 2 so far. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
That’s a great tip, thanks!
Thinking I am going to try making this for my daughter. Will be my first time trying to do a journal. Keeping fingers crossed. Between you and Treasure Books I am feeling confident.tfs cheers
You got this, Victoria! They are so much fun to make! And Natasha is awesome! 😃
Barbara what a gorgeous cover. I love those roses. I want to make one of these envelope journals. As always so love your videos and inspiration! TFS! ❤️
Thanks Pam! Those florals are really pretty! 😊
I was so curious about the avocado staining and get the proces now, will try this on a hot summer’s day, so the papers dry quickly.
I love these size journals and it was so much fun, as usual, to watch you put these together and follow your thought process.
Have a lovely day 🥰🤗
Thanks sweetie! If you want them darker you can dry them in the oven. This JJ size is so much fun, can’t get enough of it! 😃 hugs 🥰
Raisa L. Ooooh that sounds great, thank you! 😃❤️
Love where this is going!! I love envelope thingys!!
Thanks Lisa! I’m obsessed with these 😃
Hi Barbara. Yes, the Distress strains have been discontinued. HOWEVER, Tim Holtz said that the Distress sprays are the same formulation as the stains. They are simply moving from a dauber to a spray bottle.
Thank you, I will keep the dauber bottles them because I’m not a fan of them sprays!
Love your video and the music.
So pretty! I love the vintage florals and it's so much fun watching you put it all together. 💗
Thank you Linda! ❤️
I loved learning how to make avocado died paper and the journal is looking beautiful xxx💕
Thanks Susie! I’m obsessed with making these! 😊
So excited about this, I was able to follow the envelope instructions (but I skip the band around it). So pretty and I have everything on hand kind of similar to do it. Love it.
Perfect! 😃👍🏻
I love avocados, so I think I'll try to make some dyed paper. Thanks for sharing how to make them. Enjoyed watching.
Thanks! Have fun with this! 😃
Thank you so much Barbara, that’s really really awesome and stunning and gorgeous too. I really really love ❤️ those paper’s. Thank you so much for the recipe for the avocado dyed papers, useful too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Thanks for sharing the avocado dying process.
My pleasure! 😊❤️
Very cute little envelope journal! Great tutorial and helpful info on avocado dying TFS the inspiration!
Thanks Gail! I’m happy this was helpful! ☺️
I really love the avocado dye papers I enjoy the proses and I love the beginning of that envelope booklet thank you for sharing
Thanks Alejandrina! 😃❤️
When I tried avocado dying, my papers were not dark enough. So I dyed them twice. The first time I soaked them in a water bath and dried them naturally. The second time I used a sprayer to cover the papers with dye and left them to dry in between layers of deli paper. The deli paper kept the papers wet a very long time (which was not my intention, but awesome) which intensified he color and also created some cool wrinkly-looking sections on the paper.
When I dye with coffee or walnut ink, I use a sprayer instead of a water bath to get more speckle spots. I really like that look also! I think the distress stains are still available, but as a sprayer instead of a dabber bottle.
Thanks for the I for Dawn! The paper would also get darker by drying it in the oven. Your method sounds interesting too though! ❤️
Can’t wait to do this Barbara 😍
Have fun Christine! 😃
Loved this idea and truly enjoyed crafting along with you! Thank you so much!!
Thank you Karen! So happy you crafted along with me! Let’s continue tomorrow 😃
Loved it Barbara, great result and so easy to make! Thank you!

Thanks Linda! I’m obsessed with these kind of journals! 😃

The string is called Jute. Love your style Barbara :-)
Thank you, I will try to remember that word! 😃🥰
A great tutorial. I love the color of those dyed pages. Thanks!
Thanks Sue! I love this project! 😃
All this floral beauty, I love it! Very interesting to see the process of dying avocado, I was definitely curious about it before.
Thanks, happy you enjoyed it! ❤️
Hello Barbara~enjoyed watching …love the avocado paper and roses …also a different type of closure interesting 🎶
Thanks Heather! I’m so happy you enjoyed this! ❤️
Love that paper!!
Wow! This is awesome! Ant wait to see more!
Excellent tutorial. I have been wanting a demo on the avocado dying. I’m going to try this. Thank you Barbara. You are a delight to watch. So practical which I can relate to. Carolyn
Thanks so much Carolyn! I’m happy this was helpful!
Beautiful 💖 ❤️
I love this floral envelope journal it is very beautiful and feminine, the other one that you have made us more grungy looking.
Thanks Elena! I thought it was time for some soft colors again! 😊
Hi Barbara. I just saw I didn’t comment on this. LOL! I Love it. I’m watching it again because I’m trying one myself. As always TFS! ❤️
Thank you Pam! I hope you enjoy making your own! ❤️
I tired it about 2 weeks ago I like it. I haven't used it yet. I didn't use vinegar but I got a nice pink tone
Very Beautiful thank you❤️
I love this papers..the color is very light. My avocado dyed is very pink. And I was wondering if i should use more water. But maybe it is because I bake my paper in the Owen. All my papers are much more dyed but I always use the bake way. So maybe you could try it next time. The results are very different 👍😉
Love the journal I also made the other one, and love it.
Tina - Denmark 🇩🇰
Thank you Tina! I’m sure baking them makes them a lot darker! Give air drying a try if you want them lighter! 😃
I have the same with my avocado dyed papers, they have a rich dark pink color, I also bake them in the oven.
That is so pretty love the floral paper 👍🏻
Thanks Karina! I know, the florals are so beautiful! ❤️
Lo ve it!!! I was just about to do that with light blue envelopes that I have! Thank you
Perfect! Have fun! 😃
avocado seeds dye pinker than skins :)
Ooh, Thank you! 😊
I soaked my 4 avocado pits and skins just covered with water for 4 days, simmering for an hour each day. I actually had to add water to dilute the color, as it was too dark. My papers looked much darker than the ones I saw for others on CZcams.
Ey !! Hello barbara !!!!
🥰
Hi Barbara! I love the design of your 3 envelope journal! The cover closure is a great idea and adds a special element to the journal. Your selected digital kit was perfect for this project! It is lovely so far, and I'm looking forward to part 2 now.
Thanks for the avocado dying information. I have been curious as to the process to create such pretty papers. This video and the comments section have very helpful details.
Thank you for the great video to watch, learn from, and enjoy. I'm looking forward to your next project as well. TFS
Happy Creating! Samantha
I love it so far. I made an envelope journal inspired by you, using these type of envelopes. I’m currently using it as my covid journal. I can’t wait for part 2.
Thank you Amy! These journals are my favorite as they are so versatile and the format is so compact! 😃
I love it! So pretty!🌹❤️
Stunning! The digital images are gorgeous! Can't wait to see the finished jj
Thank you for sharing how to dye with avocado. I have 6 waiting to be eaten 🤤
Thanks Anita! You can also oven dry the paper to get darker results. Have fun! 😃❤️
Another beautiful envelope journal. 😍😍 These are so fun to watch. I still love the last one I made, inspired by you. Thank you. 😘
Thank you sweetie! ❤️. I just love these type of journals and can’t get enough of them! 😃
Such a great tutorial and journal cover. Thankyou for all your inspiration
Thank you Anna! 😃❤️
I really love all your ideas ...Avocados wow what a wonderful color you made.
Thanks! You can also get a darker color of you dry them in the oven! 😊
Hello Love I this is gorgeous. ❤
Love to make things with envelopes will try this tfs
Enjoy Sherry! These types of journals are so fun to make!! 😃
Good morning Barbara, thanks for showing how you just simplified my avocado dying. Used to shopp the stone and cut up the skin (don't know why I made it so complicated🤔). Lovely prints and super cover idea❣🍀
Thank you ZoraMae, I’m happy this was useful! 😃❤️
That envelope journal turned out really beautiful as always. Loved the flower images you used too. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing with us!
Thanks so much Deidra! They are so much fun to make! 😃
Hey Barbara...in sec.22 you mention you linked the video about the other envelope Journal you Show in that Moment...but I cant find the Link..? Br Maja
Maja Kaser ooos, sorry about that! It’s there now (it’s like magic 😃)
Awesome idea❤...will definitely try this one😊
Thanks! Enjoy! 🥰
Hi Barbara! I love your edits for videos. That's why I'm enjoying your works. And I just think I can dye papers with the onion skin which we use for dye eggs in the national holiday. That has beautiful color. I will write comment about that when I will try. Thank you💕
Thank you! Yes, onion skins work great as well! 😊
I know I'm a bit late with commenting on this video but I just wanted to say thank you so much for the brilliant tutorial - I really enjoyed making one with my 8 year old daughter but also wanted to thank you for introducing me to the digital collage club which I had never heard of. Thanks to you I used your link to get the lifetime membership and I am really loving it! It's amazingly great value and there are loads of amazing images so thank you again! 😊😊❤
Thank you Naomi! I’m so happy you are having fun with this tutorial and with The Digital Collage Club. It’s really great value! ☺️❤️
@@49dragonflies Aw thank you and yes it really is. To be honest I've never used digital downloads but the site was so good my lovely boyfriend bought me a little printer as an early birthday/xmas present. Feel so lucky and having so much fun - it's like a whole new world has opened up! I wouldn't have heard about it if not for you though so again many thanks! 😊
Naomi Sherred oh wow, that’s amazing! Very sweet of your boyfriend! 😃 Have fun playing with the downloads! ❤️😊
@@49dragonflies 😊❤
Very nice. Tfs. Hugs 🤗
On my way to video #2😊
I don’t like the taste or texture of avocados, so using it as a die........may be a great idea!!
Hi Barbara, I'm new to your channel but am addicted to it the last few weeks. With regards to lifetime membership, we pay that secret price and we have access to images/tutorials etc forever? I wish I could see some of the kits but am assuming it'll have the ones you've used in your projects? Just want to be sure before I jump into it 😊. You are very talented, I love your style!
Hello, yes, you have access to everything on the site forever! You can check out all the lists just going to digitalcollaheclub.com. You just can’t download them until you get the membership. It’s so worth it, I promise!
You can so easily make that stain yourself using acrylic paint -- cheap is fine -- match the color to the cheapest little bottle of acrylic paint -- honestly, expensive brands will not work better than the cheapest -- then dilute it with water and add about a teaspoon of white school/pva glue -- cheap is fine -- if you want it to sparkle, you can add some gold eye shadow or any in the honey-coloured tint you like that has sparkles in it -- don't add glitter, it will clog up your nozzle -- you can add it to one of those small spray bottles -- or if you have an empty like hair spray bottle -- shake and spray and you have your colour -- adding the white vinegar just helps to hold the colour, like when you dye easter eggs - in fact, you could probably make this colour with yellow food colouring and add a little red to it -- I would still add the pva glue, it will help hold the molecules together -- I joined your website last night -- I look forward to discovering everything there -- cheers, Patricia
Thanks Patricia. That sounds intriguing! Good to know there is an alternative 😊
So much fun to watch! I am so inspired by your ideas and approach. I was wondering if you need a special operator’s license for those scissors you use 😊 Also, my grandkids so excited to see the AIW journal, they’re begging to make their own based on your videos.
Haha thanks April! You definitely need a special license for those scissors 😂😂😂. I hope I can send you AIW journal soon, it’s all ready to go! But much cooler if they make their own version! 😃
Love it! Perfect for give away as a present for a friend's♥️ . Dos you made part two? I expected it o. This reproduction list but there is isnt
Thanks! Here is part 2. Enjoy! 😊 czcams.com/video/1ITOUD7vXRY/video.html
❤❤❤
Good morning.i really love this video I won't to make some for Christmas but please tell me what to do if you don't have a punch to put the piece for the cover thanks
Thanks Cynthia! I would make a hole with a pokie tool and add a large brad or button and wrap the twine around that…
Did anybody tray do use hibiscus tea to get that pinkish color of paper? Do you think that will work. I often use black tea to color my papers. I like it better then coffee.
Do you have a video...talking about printers and what type of paper to use. This is all new to me..thanks
Hi Debbie! Unfortunately I do not. I have a Canon TS5050 and I either use regular cheap copy paper or 200 gsm thicker paper for printing.
I’m new to all this, but want to learn so I may make pretty things as you do. When you had all the papers drying on your living room floor were they on towels, newspaper, plastic?
Thank you Carys! I’m happy you enjoyed this! You are in for so much fun with junk journaling!! 😃. I leave my papers out on newspapers.
Just saw this - (from JJ snacks) - I wonder if you would get a stronger pink if you boil down the liquid at the end ?
Thanks! You will just have to try to find out! 😃
Has anyone ever used colored copy paper like Pink in their journals. I see you can order it on Amazon.
You mentioned the digital collage club, I had a look at it and wondered if you could tell me your thoughts about it?
I have been a member for a while now and I love it, honestly! I don’t have to worry about paying extra for each download which can really add up. I can mix and match as much at my heart’s desire and I can sell anything I create with the downloads. New ones are added each week. I think it’s a really great deal!
@@49dragonflies thank you, do they have whole pages as well as embellishments?
Janet adey yes!
Barbara, I found the wild Honey distressed stain in the spray form but I can’t find it with the dauber top. Where did you find your dauber top? Thanks for introducing it to me. I’ve missed hearing from you and hope you are well and busy! Hugs
Hi Jan, I found it at a store called Papermaze in the UK. I don’t like the spray, but can put the spray liquid into the daubers once I run out. I hope you find some! I’m well thanks and sorry I’m slow with email! Sending hugs to you! 🥰
I am pretty sure you can buy replacement daubers for the distress bottles. Try Amazon.
TNX for this video. I've been wanting to try avocado. I found some distress stain daubers online but it looks like TH is release distress *paint* daubers. Is this the same? xxx
Thanks! The paint is not the same as the sauberes I have. I believe they have been discontinued 😔
Very nice! What kind of printer paper do you use to dye and print your digital images? Is it the usual 180gsm?
Thanks! It’s the cheapest copy paper I can find and It’s the usual 80gsm.
You're so cute. You're going to leave the string a little long "in case it grows."
😂😂😂 thank you ❤️
Wonderful Barbara, can’t wait for part 2 😍
Thanks Lorraine! ❤️
The rope/string is called jute. Lol
Haha thanks for that! 👍🏻😃
Will you please tell me how much does a download cost, because I couldn't find it in the site? Thank you.
42$ for a yearly membership and 87$ for lifetime membership with the coupon codes linked under my video. With these you can download whatever you want and also sell items you create with these. It’s a really great deal!
@@49dragonflies Pretty affordable for these beautiful images (it's about 40 euros). Thank you.
ΡΟΥΛΑ ΜΠΟΥΛΟΥΤΖΑ I think so too! Especially when you calculate how much you might spend in a year for single downloads...
I don’t know why but that paper you are using on the front wasn’t with my vintage rose collection...
Try searching “flowers” on the site and see if these come up.
What kind of printer do you use?
I have a Canon TS5050
Apple cider vinegar with the mother might help
Thanks Maurice! 😘
Hello thanks for sharing. Wanted to let you know a place in Florida has the honey distress ink your looking for and they have seven of them. I don’t know if that’s an option for you because they are in the US but their web is everythingmixedmedia.com. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the link. I found 2 bottles in the UK. The US currently does not shop to Austria, it hopefully this will help the other viewers! 😃👍🏻
