I also love old book pages for crafts. Our small town library sells books from the used book room in the back. That's a great place to buy books and the money is for a great cause. 😊
Edith, I think you have come up with a great idea. I have been trying to make your projects but could not get them done I a week. I am so excited to get these projects done. If your looking g day or me I will be in my craft room. Thank you so much. God bless and stay safe! Have a great Mother’s Day!🌺
OMG Miss Edith WOW Oh Your Pockets and Envelopes are Magnificent!!! It was so fun watching your creative process and seeing your Brilliant and Ingenious Old Book Pages become Envelopes and Pockets!! Loving so much your stamping and how you showed the 2nd generation stamping just adds so much dimension also love your sewing ideas...and that little sewing machine is so cute and definitely a fun way to sew on your projects!! You really did a Super Incredible Creative job!! Thanks for your Outstanding Tutorial and sharing your Tremendously Terrific Tips, Tricks & Techniques!! YOU so ROCK!! Joan Smith
Have your husband cut you a small block of wood with a slot in center to hold the large paper clip you recieved. Decorate and use as a photo holder. Love the things you are making.
Gorgeous ideas, oh I'm in the process of making the hardcover journal using no bookcover that you made few years ago, I think, having fun making it along with a material journal as well. ❤❤ I love watching your videos and I love your fantastic ideas. 😊
Ohmygosh, I have that same book! I picked it up at a goodwill a few years ago! (Secrets and Spies) I am loving your videos and saving them to watch over again so I can follow along. You create some really useful things and I very much appreciate how you explain the process. I'm so happy CZcams suggested you :)
Amazing I have just fallen in love with your work. I love making items for my junk journals. I love your style very nice. Thank you for sharing, I’ve been making envelopes like crazy after watching this. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Edith, thank you for showing the envelopes & pockets, and thank you for finding that mini sewing machine. I have a portable Singer Sewing Machine that I have had for almost 50 yrs, & it weighs a ton. That little sewing machine is perfect for crafting as well as little 'mending' projects. I love your pocket & envelopes. :) Stay safe & well!
Beautiful Edith, thank you so much 🌹❤️ a little tip if you would like, if you fold your two edges over together you can snip them at the same time for the flap i found it made it a bit easier 😊
Loving the old books idea. I may have to go to a charity shop to get old books that are broken already. Cannot cut up a book how ever old. Thanks for all you do x
I’ve been “bing” watching YOU every night and really enjoying your tutorials! I’m bursting with inspiration and will try, tomorrow, to put into action what you have taught me! TFS!
I don't have any old books. Hurricane Harvey took them when our home was flooded. But have replenished my papers and cardstock. I found a paper that is a copy of an old letter, and am hoping to try your pockets. Love the video.
Edith, you have my mind BUZZING.....I am thinking I could use some pages from old cookbooks to make some of these pockets/envelopes! My girls would like some of “my” recipes....these ideas would make a wonderful journal for that!
Love stamping on book pages. They make awesome pockets and envelopes. I'm so glad you switched the May challenge. Phew. Maybe I can get them all done lol. Ty Hugs n blessings
I've been organizing, organizing, organizing since this pandemic began, and I've been itching to work on book pages. Tonight I gave myself permission to play, and play I did! Hope to have my pocket and envelope ready to post tonight or tomorrow! Thank you Edith!
I always forget to comment!! I'm working on these envelopes. I love these!!! I work part-time and also babysit with some grands so I just find it hard to keep up! I'll keep trying!
Thank you so much for showing these easy projects I just love the idea of making pocket. I can't wait to do this one. Now I know what to do with old books. I'm just stuff order when it comes to books not old old books I'm over books for children because I was a teacher but I love that old book that you showed that was beautiful.
I've been wondering what to do with some of my old book pages...these are easy and look great. I'll certainly be doing these. Thank you for another great journal idea.
I just watched this and I don’t scrapbook but love the idea and plan on making a pocket or two to add to cards for my librarian and book club friends. Thanks for all your great ideas and videos.
Cute! Cute! Cute! I'm so glad we have until the end of the month for the challenge. I still work outside the home So this gives me a chance to keep up. Thanks Edith! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much Edith, I really really love 💕 those book page envelopes ✉️ and pockets. I’m really going to have to get the Tim Holtz wild flower stamps, because they are really fabulous aren’t they. I really really think 🤔 that it’s a really really great 👍 idea 💡 to have the drawn at the end of the month. Stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Thank you for this inspiring tutorial! I LOVE old book pages and don't use them enough. I'm going to go make some envelopes right now! I really look forward to seeing you each day! Oh.. I I like the idea of the end of the month drawing, as I was finding it hard to get things done in a week... I still want to make the gift bag album but didn't even get it started (though I did buy some gift bags!).
Love what you did with the book pages. Came across your channel and can tell you are very talented. I love to scrapbook for my son, and I love to make Junk Journals. Not to mention all the other crafts I love to do. Getting ready to do some painting pours soon. Anyway, I rung the bell and plan to check out your other videos! New subbie here, and would love to be crafty CZcams friends! Tfs!
I love this idea. As soon as I find a book with the pages falling out I will try this. Most of my books I have are autographed by the author and I won't use them. Keep up the good job on the videos.
I love what you did with the book pages. I have to see if I can dig up some more books and try this. I have an idea how I want to dress mine up. I’m so happy you liked my goodie bag I sent to you. Hope you can find many good uses out of it. Thank you for extending the time to post our projects. God bless you and your family. Oh before I forget for the contest do I post my pic of what I make on your Facebook page? I’m not computer smart and I’m trying to figure this out.
I love your envelope & pocket, but you should watch Patcriia Viramontes CZcams videos if you haven't already because she is considered the Queen of book page ephemera, which she should be & also ShabbyDabbyDooDah because her & her son did a few versions of Patricia Viramontes book page pocket ephemera that turned stunning. Take care & stay safe, Lily
Ms Edith wonderful pockets. I wonder since you are gluing 2 pages together, if you can glue the back page going in the opposite direction. That way, when you fold it over on top, the writing would be in the right direction. If you are gluing it down in a journal, no one will see the back anyway, right. Just a thought, trying to help.
I also love old book pages for crafts. Our small town library sells books from the used book room in the back. That's a great place to buy books and the money is for a great cause. 😊

Amazing I have just fallen in love with your work. I love making items for my junk journals. I love your style very nice. Thank you for sharing, I’ve been making envelopes like crazy after watching this. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Those long clear strips are to put on the spine of a binder and then you can label your binder. Bet you will have fun with all of that. :)
Joy Stone oh thank you. I didn’t think of that.
I just saw Natasha from Treasure books do this same thing. She sews hers, but I'm glad you mentioned that you don't have to because Idon't sew.
love these! What a great idea.so easy to. Thank you for sharing.
Edith, thank you for showing the envelopes & pockets, and thank you for finding that mini sewing machine. I have a portable Singer Sewing Machine that I have had for almost 50 yrs, & it weighs a ton.

Judy P's Crafty Journeys thank you so much and welcome to our family. I will go check out your channel.

I love this idea. As soon as I find a book with the pages falling out I will try this. Most of my books I have are autographed by the author and I won't use them. Keep up the good job on the videos.
neat things u make
I'm going to have to find me some old books to try this.
Very nice
If you flip the back page over then the flap on the front will be right side up too.
I love what you did with the book pages. I have to see if I can dig up some more books and try this. I have an idea how I want to dress mine up. I’m so happy you liked my goodie bag I sent to you.

Christine Dauzat yes on our FB group. The link is below the video.
Put your back page upside down so the writing is right side up on the flap... love watching your videos
Thanks so much for the tip. And thanks for watching.
Dollar Tree and Amazon have those large paperclips.
Thank you.
I love your envelope & pocket, but you should watch Patcriia Viramontes CZcams videos if you haven't already because she is considered the Queen of book page ephemera, which she should be & also ShabbyDabbyDooDah because her & her son did a few versions of Patricia Viramontes book page pocket ephemera that turned stunning. Take care & stay safe, Lily
Lily Fultz I watch Tina but haven’t watched Patricia will have to check her out.
Ms Edith wonderful pockets. I wonder since you are gluing 2 pages together, if you can glue the back page going in the opposite direction.

Karla Bostic you are so smart. Great idea. I never thought of that. Thank you for sharing.
