Hello,
Welcome thank you for joining me today.
Today’s video is a fun and easy build a journal with me. I love to use up scraps and gluing random papers down for a cover. I hope this video inspires you to start you own junk journal journey.
Happy crafting!

I really appreciate that you didn't use printables. I love that you use your own creativity and not someone else's. Thank you!

The way I have dealt with my scraps is that I put them in an envelope after each journal and include the envelope inside the journal. I let the recipient who finds the journals I abandon at Little Free Libraries and the Senior Center Take One/Leave One library decide what to do with the scraps. Easy peasy, win/win, I have no scraps to deal with.

That’s a great idea. I usually include scraps as well in my journals but I don’t think of it until the end of the journal making process and then have to go back and find them all lol

I always learn so much from you Michele and I love to listen to how your mind works as you go about creating. I'm glad you show how to do a curved spine because for some reason I automatically do a rigid spine and forget about the curved spine which I like so much better. What a cute little journal you've made, love it!

I’ve watched this 2x’s now. Love all your ideas and talent. I am also a paper hoarder but didn’t have a clue what to do with them. I’m going to try to create a journal to follow my cutting flower journey. Thanks so much. Wish I found you when you first posted.

I am in the process of making six vintage playing card journals at the moment from watching your video. My first card journals. I'm an Adobe Photoshop enthusiast and have made custom designed paper for my little journals with some fine linen backgrounds and vintage flowers. I would like to store these for gifts to give to my family and friends. My goal is to complete the whole deck of cards before Thanksgiving so I plan on adding some Christmas and holiday themed ones also. The possibilities are endless. Thank you very much for sharing your crafting with us, you have a pleasant voice and I can hear your positivity and kindness shining it when you chat.

You never have to apologise for a puppy. They have a lot to say & need to be able to say things. I used to tell my dog that he wasn’t to bark at night unless there was a fire, fred (our name for snakes) or burglar, because neighbours were sleeping. He was pretty good about it mostly, but he was wuffing more than usual one night. I forgot my own wuffing request & told him to be quiet. He still wuffed, and wouldn’t be quiet & I finally realised it had a bit of a “Mum you need to come look” sound to it, so I finally went out to check. And sure enough, someone had lit a fire partway up the street, trying to set a big section of bushland alight (luckily it was way too green). A rather sheepish me gave a very good puppy extra tummy rubs & treats 😊

I love learning how other “paper people” sort their scraps and organize their stash(es). I try to keep it simple, but let’s just say, I’m not there yet… 🤍🤍🤍 also, I would love to watch you sew. I’m not very good at it either, so not only would it make me feel good, I enjoy your commentary and thought process (and truly excellent instructions)

I think you’d also love 49Dragonflies. She’s a junk journaller, but she uses sewing on a lot of her paper creations & has loads of amazing ideas & creations. She’s also a super lovely person.

Thank you so much. The scrap organization is for ever evolving in my creative space. It might look organized on camera but not so much in the grand scheme of things lol. I don’t often sew on camera because of the camera angle. Doesn’t really pick it up also my machine always gives me trouble. Lol

I have a video on it but I’m no expert. I don’t have a you tuber that comes to mind for gelli printing sorry. But I know there are lots of videos out there. I just slap the paint down and have fun with it. 😊
