Natasha, if you didn’t want to fiddle with using tea bags what would you recommend as an alternative to this step... could use use stained muslin, or cheese cloth?

I don't like tea, however in the usa a box of tea is less then $2 so I will just make the tea for the bags.

Thank you, I have always admired altered playing cards, but never sure what to do. I love your technique and so many ideas of how to use them.

This is the coolest project I have seen for junk journaling. I tried it this evening and was stunned at the results.

I’m so glad!!!

I have partial decks of cards! Can’t wait to make some journal cards. These would also make cute party tags. Place setting on a formal table with guests names (if we’re getting fancy), even tags on a gift or put one at each end of a ribbon and make a book mark. So, soooo many ideas! ❤️

This is so lovely! I really appreciate the simple materials used for those of us on limited budgets. Thank you💕

My pleasure! Glad you like it and thank YOU!

VERY clever! (: A couple used spring to mind - - "Favors"... There are a lot of people that play cards in their homes, in assisted living places, et cetera; get-togethers once a month. A 'pack' of 3-5 cards could become a little booklet and gifted to everyone as 'favors' or 'scorecards' (paper on the backs, of course). "Memory Cards"... There could also be 1 tiny item or drawing or something hidden like a tiny face on each card... 2 or 3 that match. The person (child or elderly) would go through the cards and put the ones that 'match' together. This would engage the brain... a very good memory tool, I would think. And so on and so forth... (:

Love this idea - thanks! I was just about to post this comment when I read the negative and rude comment below; you were wonderfully gracious in response, and I liked your cheekiness at the end too! I'm sorry when people say unnecessary and hurtful things to you (or indeed anyone), so want to say how very much your channel benefits my life, as a member of society and an artist-in-the-making, and helps me to think creatively out-of-the-box. There are many mistakenly under-rated skills that are modifiable and transferable to many other areas of life, so are not a waste of time or use of brain power! Thankyou so very much! Hugs.

Thank you so much Jennifer!! How can I possibly be upset about a random negative comment, when I have this supportive community, and lovely women such as yourself, commenting and brightening up my day?! Impossible! Thank you :)

Bonjour Natasha, Je vogue sur vos pages depuis un tit moment et j'en suis ravie😊. Je vous remercie infiniment pour toutes vos idées, détails, explications et toutes l'énergie que vous nous transmettez. Passez un joli dimanche, prenez soin de vous. Bises😗😗😗

I LOVE this!!!! You have great tutorials and make it easy to understand! Thank you for sharing!!!!

When I made these I sewed tea dyed lined paper on the back, then punched a hole and ribbon. I love these for my journals. Thank you for the inspiration!

Love the tunnel book idea! Telling a story appeals to me. Wondering about the weight of the paieri. And I like butterflies too, and snails.

You have inspired me to make my own distressed cards. Thank you. You did a wonderful job.

Oh my goodness, as soon as you cut the card and I saw the scrap, I immediately thought how cute it would look in the journal too!! They're all so cute.

I don't have tea bags but I was thinking of using paper napkins! Lovely idea thank you!

Ah, now I have another idea what to do with all my dried teabags now 😊💞

Oh, what fun! I am half way through altering a deck of cards. Your technique gives me a new avenue to explore with part of the remaining cards. Thanks muchly for the inspiration. Can't wait to try it. Gloria

Thank you so much for your generosity as always while sharing your talent and process. I have been trying to keep up with what is going on in Australia with the fires. My heart really goes out to the people and all the creatures that are being devastated by this disaster. It may be just me, but I feel like news coverage in the US has been somewhat lacking - I would like to know what I can do personally to be of any assistance other than the prayers for your country. If you have suggestions I would be grateful to know. I honestly do not know who else to contact other than the crafting community which always seem to give of themselves so freely. Be safe and well.

Love this idea! I've got lots of playing cards - they are nice size and weight, are easy to get at thrift stores and garage sales for next to nothing and can be used in so many ways. Thanks for another great idea - adding the tea bag really makes a difference and I'm going to try the napkins too.

Was looking to antique a tarot deck for prop purposes and was recently referred to this video by a crafter friend. Very nice and a lot easier to deal with than the sanding and soaking in tea that I had done so far... and gotten very little actual result from. :D

Great video, I am officially hooked on gluing down teabag paper! The effect is fabulous 👌 Thank you ❤ Btw I skip putting glue under the teabag, as the moisture disturbs the pretty text fragments.

I have always love playing cards so this is ideal for me xx

Stunning. Like all your work . TFS 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thank you for another inspiring idea. I love how these items are all easily found in the home! Just beautiful.

Great idea for creating with playing cards and used tea bags. I have both, just "sitting around," and NOW I know what I can do with them! Thank you!

Absolutely GORGEOUS ! Playing cards usually are fascinating but after this vintage process, they really have a soul, with a beautiful mystery look and this touch of magic you are so talented with to give to any project. I really love these and can't wait to make some. Thank you for sharing so generously !

I love your playing cards made into a booklet really cute. Great Job.

Good thing ms. ross got her comment in first, so far it is 264 lovely comments and appreciation for what you do, to one, who hasn't a clue. Just saying, keep on crafting, teaching and being yourself. Obviously, lots of folks enjoy you, your style, and you art. Not to mention the 22,633 folks who watched and most like enjoyed, admired, including the 264 who took the trouble to comment, and only one unhappy soul. We love you! Alice from the soggy SE USA.

ESPECIALLY THE COLLAGE IDEAS. THANK YOU!

Brilliant idea. Busy with a journal right now and I will add some playing cards. Love the idea of using teabags.

Love this project!

I was thinking itty bitty booklet to add to a larger journal or mini-album. I've cut journal cards in half and used them as the covers of tiny accordion books for that purpose.
