- This is how I make beautiful snippet rolls to embellish journal pages, using bits of fabric, lace, beads and buttons.

I’m addicted in half a day! Wow. 🤩🤩🤩
@@terryfraser4952 lol Terry!
I’ve made lace snippets, landscape snippets but never mainly fabric ones. Love your take on the fabric ones. 🌸
Thanks Corinne, ooh now I want to see your landscape snippets!
I think it’s great how you make it on a large piece first, then cut it up!
Thanks Chris, yes it is the most efficient way and by the time I have added more elements to it, it all looks different anyway! 💗💗
Gorgeous Kari, just gorgeous.💞💞
Thank you so much She, I love sewing them, but I keep finding bits of lint/cotton in the most unexpected of places, LOL! 🤣💗💗
Thank you for this, I have been struggling to do snippet rolls. I want to do it so much. I don't think my brain can handle it lol...but doing it as a whole piece and then breaking it down. Now that I just might be able to do it. Thank you xx
Thanks Toni, yes, I love doing snippet rolls this way, it is much faster and then I can enjoy the embellishing part at my leisure. Have fun making some! 🥰
LOVE🥰🥰🥰. I am making a snippet roll as I'm watching you do this. Mine is with upholstery fabric on double sided carpet tape. Your roll is lovely!
Sounds great, what a neat idea! 😁♥️😁
Well these are really really gorgeous Kari. I love them so much to look at and want to touch👍🥰
Thanks Toni, they are very tactile! ❤❤
really like those colours together 🥰
I think selecting the coloured fabrics is such a fun part for me! 💗💗
Such gorgeous pieces, and yes, fun! I would love to see you make a giant creation with your journal page style on a large canvas. I think it would be spectactular, with all the embellisments and colour!
Thanks Becca, that sounds like a great idea! 💗💗
@@KariGibsonArt Yay, it is a great idea! Would love to see it!
GORGEOUS!
Thank you very much! 💗💗💗
I saw one of your shorts pop up in my feed, a mixed media tag I believe. I had to rush over to your channel and see what other beautiful creations you have ❤
Hi Kelly, I'm glad you're here. I'm going to be doing a tag a day for the 100 day project which starts on the 22nd - you're the first to know about it! ❤❤
Absolutely lovely!
Thanks Darcy! ❤❤
I would cut side f my too tight dress & add this to widen a bit. Beautiful work. Thank you.
Thanks Maria, yeah sorry about the off camera bit, I have vision issues and can't see the needle very clearly, so I cut that bit short. I love your idea of using a snippet roll to widen a dress, that is brilliant! 💗💗
Love love it!❤
Thank you very much Sheila! 💗💗
Una bella obra de arte 👏👏👏😘😘😘💕💕💕🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
Gracias! 🩷🩷🩷🩷
#Replay I’m watching you for the first time and I subscribed to your channel. Your snap rolls are beautiful.
Thank you so much Debby, they are wonderfully fun to make, I love the embellishment stage at the end! 💗💗
Lovely, I hope I can use my sewing machine again this year but we'll see... Love those mini embellishments on the tiny bits of fabric... So cute. Noticed a bit of my broderie anglais their too 😁😁💖
Thanks Elaine, oh yes get your sewing machine out when you can, making snippet rolls is great fun. I wondered where the broderie anglais came from, I love it! 😅❤❤
Looks like great fun
Thank you, yes, I love making them! 💗💗
Great fabric collage strips. Don’t know if you have any rotary cutter for they do have a few decorative blades, which would give you some interesting edges, plus some decorative sewing threads would be another way in which to add color, texture and design too.
Thanks Linda, I don't have a rotary cutter, but it is on the list and I shall certainly look out for those decorative blades, I didn't know they existed. I do have some fancy threads and I will give them a go, plus I want to do a little hand-embroidery too. 💗💗
Love this way of doing the snippit roll. One large fabric collage and then cutting into strips. Your embellishments are gorgeous. The possibilities are endless. I miss your blogs where we got to see your beautiful face! I'm excited to hear you're getting more into junk journaling. Would love a video for junk journaling the "Kari way".
Thanks very much Judy, I am addicted to making snippet rolls at the moment, I just can't stop, the best bit is adding the final embellishments. You are so kind about the vlogs, I shall do some more soon - oddly, they take a long time to put together, I do enjoy them though. Yes, junk journaling is certainly pulling me in, I like to combine both art journaling and junk journaling and I will indeed video my way soon, thanks for the encouragement Judy! 💗💗
Came for the fabric paper and staying for all. The. Things. 😍
Don't think I have found a creator on CZcams who's making videos that I love as much. Every single one I fall in love with Kari!
Thank you and much love from Fife 💜🏴
Oh, you are so kind Nikki! Oh Fife, my home for many years (decades), I am now in the middle of England and miss Scotland so much! 💙🤍💙
@@KariGibsonArt I noticed you were an art student in Dundee which is just over the water and a wee bit along from me.
The Tay is looking particularly silvery today 😍
What a clever way to get a coordinated strip going! TFS!! 🇨🇦
Thanks LRay, it is very efficient, yet when I have finished adding the embellishments, each bit looks different in the end anyway! 💗💗
Perfect timing! Am heading downstairs to look through my batik fabrics to mend some shirts Boro style. So I can have another pile for snippet rolls. I think I’ll do a Pandemic snippet roll using the scraps from all the frantic mask making in 2020. Thought about an EPP pandemic nap quilt but I’m going to have to extend my life another 20 years to come close to my goals. And you are over 8K subscribers! Hurray! Congratulations 🍾
Thanks Kate, oh, I like the sound of your mended shirts and yay for leftover bits of fabric. Heheh, yes, my EPP project is also a nap quilt, I too need to extend my life in order to complete it. I am really enjoying making snippet rolls, although I seem to be finding lint and cotton in the most unexpected of places! 😂💗
Working on a fabric snippet roll, having a blast! Thanks for showing us your process and for the inspiration!
I'm very happy to read that, Doree! ❤❤
I accidentally found your channel this morning. This snippet is brilliant/ I love so many of your ideas. Watching you watercolour paint is mesmerizing! 🤩
Thanks Terry, that's so kind of you! ❤❤
Isn't this so fun! I love it, Kari. I love the varied color schemes of all the snippets too. And eyelets! I'm so happy to see the eyelets! So very Kari lol. Well yes! I shall be doing some snippeting as well. Thanks, Kari!
Thank you so much, Marti, I am really enjoying making them and of course, eyelets have to feature in almost everything I do, LOL. I am glad you shall be snippeting too, I have more I want to make, once all my chores are done! 💗💗
Kari - your snippet roll is absolutely gorgeous. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you make it and will be using your techniques to make one of my own. Thanks so much for sharing and for the inspiration. 💕
Thank you so much, I am glad you will be making your own. I've just subscribed to your channel, if you post your own snippet roll making on there, let me know, I will love to see it! 💗💗
So lovely. I will need to stick to the paper ones. The sewing on your snippet rolls makes the roll. thank you for the tip on the sentiment stamps on fabric.
Thank you very much, yes the paper ones are just as lovely, I enjoy doing those a lot too. I love the final embellishment bits at the end, as you say, it completes them. 💗💗
Very nice
Thank you very much! 😀❤
Such a lovely snippet roll! Great timing for me, too. I’ve been thinking lately that I haven’t made any in a while, and I’d like to make some soon. It’s nice to see the style of another person’s snippet roll to get some new ideas! I do both hand and machine stitching; fabric and paper ones, too! 😃❤️
How funny that we are on the same wavelength! I love looking at other people's snippet rolls too. I may have added quite a few to my Pinterest board 😂 💗
This is awesome, such a fun project.
Besides art supplies, my next favourite thing is fabrics and everything haberdashery. 😍
Thanks for sharing with us Kari.
Thanks Maria, yes, haberdashery is up there with stationery supplies for me too! I used to spin and weave, so I have a long love for textiles. 💗💗
I LOVE these sooooooo much. I think they may well be my favourite things that I've ever seen on A&C CZcams!!! Def going into my techniques folder. TFS 🥰😍😘
Yay! Thank you! I am currently very addicted to making snippet rolls, I love them! 💗💗
First time seeing your work. It's beautiful 😍
Lovely fabric snippet roll. Tfs. 🥰😊
Thank you Margaret, I love making them! 💗😊💗
I love this so much! One of your journal tag videos came up in my feed, and I had to go find you! I'm so glad. Your work is beautiful 😍
Thanks so much PegRae, that is so kind of you! 💗💗
Hi Kari, loved your video. I’m a sewer and think it’s a fantastic idea. I will definitely be making one, but could you show us/me how you use them in a journal? Do you have videos already? Thanks for all your great ideas.
Hi Helen, thank you very much and yes, of course, I will be using them a lot in future videos, once I have looked and stroked them enough that I can bear cutting them up! 💗💗
I love it when you say "I looove it!" What are the names of the little pin things on the snippets I want to buy some?🌹
Thanks Suzie - oh do you mean the bulb pins that I dangle charms on or the clips that I use to hold things together before sewing? They are called wonder clips and are really useful, I bought mine from Amazon! 💗
New subscriber beautifull
Thank you so much Erick!!
Hermoso delicado pero en que proyectolo podra ocupar 😊
¡Gracias! Los uso para envolver un diario o cortar trozos para decorar una página. 💗💗
Is this a bookmark? Please explain.
Hi Rhoda! It can be used as a bookmark, but I like to use is as a binding for books or for little clusters on pages to decorate them, even for pockets too. I hope that helps! 😊💗
What glue stick do you use please?
Any will do - I just buy whatever is cheapest.
🤍🖤👍
Thanks so much! 💗😊
Your sewing is off camera can't see.
