Pam, you always have cool ideas for crafting on paper. Take care of yourself and Sunny and the gang.

Well if you can't find the right paper for the job at hand, make it yourself. Handy tips, thanks Pam.🥰

Gooood Morning, Pam & Fabulous Outpostians! I do hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! Oo, book pages & paint... sounds fun! Let's get creative! 😊

Good morning Pam and everyone! I am sooo tired today and mostly because I have built my space to create at, desk, shelves, bought a ton of supplies etc and I have been sooo exited and I can´t wait to start making something. ❤🙌 I have just tested some things so far, getting to know things, made a tag and som clusters etc and started rumbling around in the paperwaste baskets when I see my kids have thrown away something nice (🤣 the face they made when they caught me) . I am severally ill so I only have a few minutes at times and I easily overdo it and pay for it like now, BUT now I can lay down and just enjoy watching you Pam create and I create in my mind and write down things and ideas I want o try on my better moments. ❤ My list is ever growing. Hugs to Snuffers ❤ I am here snuggling my kitties ❤

Thank you, so sweet of you to answer me @@JustMeValerie6 and sending me a prayer❤ Yes, oh, I have gotten some funny looks lately from my family 😂. Unfortunately I have severe ME so I am chronically ill with very little chance of improvement, and even fun things take energy, BUT I believe my soul and mind and heart will feel soooo much better putting some of my little energy on paper fun and crafts and not all those duties in a home. Some energy will be put on junkjournaling and coloring etc from now on. My kids are not small, the youngest just became 18. I just have to find my balance so I don´t get post excertional malaise. I am so much happier now so it is definatly giving me a lot. I am mostly bedbound so I can actually do some crafts in my bed with laptoptables etc ❤😃 Loving it!

They look lovely. Flowers are great fun to paint love that “pencil.”

Good Morning :) Love the drawing videos ❤ Thank you ❤

I love book pages. Sunny, you were adorable as usual.❤👍😁

Happy Saturday Pam and fam!! 💕 what a fun addition to journals! ❤

🥰My daughter and I just painted some flowers on our jeans! This made me think of it. Great job! 🌼

I love Sunshine pup reporting. Thank you this project is beautiful!

Good morning! I love your videos!

Beautiful flower Pam, awesome job 🤗💕

Isn't it really great to be ambidextrous? You are my best goto journal artist. Thank you for all these wonderful videos. .

You are very diversified!

Very interesting painted pages...........................😻

Hi Pam and Sunny! I think I like the flower that you wet the pencil then traced around it! Great job!!!!!!

I'm an artist and I have a bad habit of leaving acrylic paint on my paint brushes. I have found that if you mix equal parts hand sanitizer with Dawn dish soap and swirl the brushes around for a few minutes and then let them soak in the mixture overnight it comes off.

I’m getting ready to make some of these book pages today! Thanks Pam for the ideas you share with us🤗❤️

Fascinating!! Thanks so much. ❤

AMAZING....I love it!...LOVE the book page work that you do.😃

I love this idea.... I paint kindness rocks so have plenty of acrylic paint on hand.... I can't wait to do some of these

Thank you for all the different ways

Good morning Pam , beautiful video love what u did on the book page

Good morning! I learn from your videos every time I watch them, and I watch them over and over again! Thank you for your inspiring, creative ideas. I have so much stuff to use up my daughter called me a hoarder recently! Ouch! She doesn't understand!! By the way, my nickname has been "Reckless" for many years now maybe because I've broken so many bones (27 at last count) and my vehicle I drive even has RECKLSS on the license plate!

Happy Weekend Crafters! Great video! Am reading all your comments. I love the line from Pam, this takes little or no talent! That’s me! 😊 Love to all

Thank you Pam, for inspiration 💐

good lesson in just doing something with paint.

Reckless abandonment was in full force in this video! 🤗🤗🤗 loved every minute! And when we get an up close & personal commentary by the dog reporter, all is well! I think you drew in the Sydney Opera House on the top edge of the pink flower! Amazing about the hidden meanings we can find in art! Thank you so much, Pam, for all the you share with us! We are so lucky! Erica❤

Love the pink❣️

Pam your flowes are beautiful!

Don't know about anyone else but I found this really relaxing to watch. I love the metamorphous of the pink flowers --- I personally don't know any painting "rules," so I'll never know when/if you break them! Happy crafting everyone!

I love my Saturday mornings with YOU!! after I am done watching you, I am heading to a store that is a great location of recycle, and they have a large bin of recycled, cut ups that they are giving to anyone who wants them.. hoping to find some treasures. Thanks for sharing your ideas.. I am not a person who can drawl or paint, but I think I may give this a try.. so pretty

I love that big pink flower!♥️

Good morning Miss Pam and Mr. Sunbun. The name of the part of the flower you were looking for is Sepal. I loved your paintings, especially the pink one with the hanging filaments and anthers (I looked it up). I love the dots too! And yeah the added phantom petals not so much. But we all tend to over compensate when correcting what we think are mistakes. I can't wait to see what you do with your creations!

The group of 3 or any odd number is pleasing to the eye. I like the pink one because it reminds me of old botanical paintings. Best wishes to you and your house hold.

Mornin' Pam. Painting book pages is one of my favorite things to do. 😁 TFS Hope you all have a great day. 🌞

LOOOOOVE this idea!!! 🎨♥️

Finally - a different use for my acrylics and stashed paint brushes! Yes, I too seem to "collect" paint brushes Pam :)

Another great idea for using up those book pages! Thank you!!

Both are as cute as can be! Whimsical and arty. Thank you for the inspiration! 🤩❤🐶🌺🥀

Good morning miss Pam, lovely pages. Painting on them is so lovely. I’ve stamped and inked, now to go and play with my paint. Thanks so much for sharing , have a blessed weekend 🤗🦋🌻

Awesosome project tfs Pam...Kia Kaha..

Can’t wait to see how you use these pages!!!

Love this idea!

U are so talented. Love these. Thanks for sharing.

lol the shark fin had me lol!!! 😂 very pretty

Good Morning! I am going to try this. I love your reckless abandon Pam!

I purchased those pencils and they’ll be here on Wednesday. I can’t wait to get them so I can play with them 🙌 Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. You’ve made me a better paper crafter ❤

Very pretty Pam ❤

Hi everyone 💐 hope all are well ! Please remember to share video with friends to add subscribers and up # to 150k . Thank you !!

Good morning! A fun activity - I’d love to see how you end up using the flowers. I’ve been organizing my craft room- it feels more exciting to work in now. I want to organize my paper (small bits, tags, ephemera, etc) but once I start I end up mixing it up 😆 so for now, they’re all mixed. Thanks so much for your inspiration! Be well! ❤️

Good morning Pam, and all the other outposters. When I first tuned into your video, I didn’t think I would watch it because I don’t paint, nor do I have any paints. However I found the entire video fascinating. I can’t wait to try this. Thank you Pam for teaching us new things every day. You’re inspirational. ❤❤

I love your disclaimer about the drinking glasses. I should be dead by now. But I do put them through the dishwasher after painting!😂

😮whoa the shading of the white one w the pencil, I'm going to try it today. There all very kewl!

Yay for painting! 😀It's actually fine to get the entire brush *wet*, but you don't want to leave it sitting in the water, that's when it soaks up so much water that the wood expands, which loosens the ferrule (the part that holds the hairs on) and then when it shrinks as it dries the ferrule falls off. So dunk in the water as much as you need, but then take it out and put it on the towel and all will be well. 😊

Another great fabulous day at the Paper Outpost! The paintings are so pretty! Sunshine you are so sweet!❤

Enjoying a little mayhem here in Kona, HI today!

Thanks Pam! I love any painting videos you do! I haven't worked with acryllics, but a friend of mine just gave me a whole lot of hers, so I look forward to finding it! And what fun.

Thank you pam. I fixing to go on a cruise and i want to take some items to craft. I'm taking small portable water colors and this is perfect. I don't think acrylics are allowed. I'm sure you have other ideas that are great and don't require me to pack my entire craft room. No fretting, i have many many of your videos saved! Luv u ❤❤❤

Looking to enjoy some Reckless Abandon! 😂

I enjoyed the video. I have never used straight acrylic paint. I have always mixed it with water, so it would be more like a water color. I will give it a try.

Looks like a fun idea. I love that Stabillo pencil, I’ve tried others but it really is the best. TFS

Great job on your pink flowers that you drew.

I love it ❤

Good morning Pam, Sunshine and everyone! I paint a little and I am looking forward to doing bookpages. Neat look and great paper source! Thank you for your inspiration!

Terrific. You could go on with glitter or rhinestones or ribbon or cut out bees birds or ladybugs. This is fun.

Thank you Pam for sharing your gift of art and the giving of your time with us. Love the no rules when it comes to creating. I have tons of brushes my grands have here, no rules on what kind of brushes I use around here as long as the end results are what I want.❤️

Looks like fun, I ordered 3 of the aqua pencil’s 🖊 like you are using from your Amazon store, it took me a minute to find them, but I’m so excited to play when they get here, Thanks for sharing!😊❤

I have bought the stabilo set of colored pencils (black pencil delivery was delayed by a couple of days and i wanted to play yesterday - there is a black pencil that comes in the multi color pack). The other colors work as well as the black pencil adding a pop of intense color.

Good morning, Pam and Sunny 😊 I keep meaning to try this, you make painting look so easy and doable.

being new to all craft,sewing etc,I am trying to be frugal in my efforts to gather tools etc,as I notice that so many I watch ,in my opinion,have way too much stuff.one lady was having a clean out and opened one drawer and I was so shocked by how many paint brushes she had,then another had the mother load of scissors. and we are saving things from the land fill? love your videos Pam. all the goof ups etc. so human.

I have a challenge for you, Pam. Two years ago, in the video called "Easy Tips to Paint Flowers in Junk Journals!:) Beginner Tutorial for a Non-Artist", you said you needed to work on the "cuteness factor". I would LOVE to see you do that. I love all that you do and on a down day for me, I just listen to you and find myself laughing and happy. I want to see you do "cute" however. You are so good at being spontaneous and working with what gets thrown at you that day, whether it be a breeze or something falling onto the table. I think it would be fun and your comments would be outrageous if you were to do some cute projects on purpose. Just a thought. I love everything that you do.

Thanks!

I love the flowers. Maybe just outline the petals of the white flower page? ❤🦴 the bone is for your puppers😊

Hi Pam, great ideas as usual. It generally wouldn't be recommended to use expensive watercolour brushes with acrylic, however most brushes are a bit more resilient than you suggest and it is possible to clean them when dry just soaking them up past the ferrule the band that connects bristles to handles is not recommended. Also if you are not finished with a brush wrapping the bristles with some cling wrap prevents it from drying as quickly. I would love to get one of your fundles but I understand its too expensive to send them to Australia!

Book pages and paint? Sounds fun! 😊

BTW I love the flower designs on the book pages. I just bought paints and I’ll have a go at creating them with wreckless abandon. X

Thanks for the kiss Sunshine, exactly what I needed today❤ please tell Pam I loved the flowers.but not too sure about the chicken pox I mean polka-dots. Also please ask her to consider one of those refillable water brushes over the disintegrating earbuds😂

I am not sure but the brush you like is a "mop" brush. Has the nice point for detail. Maybe that's the slang..lol😊

Very cute! I like doodles! I was wanting you to paint some leaves but overall I liked them. Easy to follow. TFS🤗

That is a watercolor brush. They make specific brushes for acrylic paint...just helpful advice

Could you have used a small paint brush to bloom the black pencil instead of the Q-tip?

Im not talented in freehand art, so would this flower painting project work by lightly tracing flowers onto the book page using carbon paper or tracing paper as a guide then paint them? Bird of Paradise maybe? 😊

You could also stamp a flower (or anything really) using archival ink pad, then fill in the color with watercolors. 😊

Loved your flowers, you make it look so easy 👩‍🎨 ~ I went to the Amazon store to purchase the aquareliable pencil, but I’m not seeing it in your shop, maybe I’m not looking in the right place?

Where can we find the pencils? I love the pink one!!!
