That is so cute and so easy and quick. Thankyou for sharing. You explain so easily. Tomorrow I will start my first junk journal, so I will try to remember to take pics along the way.

Thank you for sharing, what a creative and beautiful journal! I love so much how approachable and straightforward your teaching style is, and so encouraging that even total beginners can make their own beautiful custom journals with materials they already have at home. I have SO many envelopes, this idea is perfect!

I made a journal from the same size envelope and I like that it gives you scope to add larger pieces of paper too. I really liked when you added the sewing pattern paper to mute the front. I’ll have to beg some of that from my sewing friends. Lovely tutorial making a great journal.

@kholbrook203 Жыл бұрын

I’d love to know where or what patterns you get the plain paper without lines at. Every single pattern I have has the pattern printed on it.

@Kayenne54 2 жыл бұрын

@@JohannaClough And I was thinking, using the pinking shears or speciality edge scissors on some of those pieces of paper would make it look even more like a quilt cover...Am definitely going to try this; have a six year old granddaughter who thought my first journal effort for her didn't have "enough pages"...(meaning, enough big clear pages for her to draw/colour on). She wanted MORE PAPER. Lol.

@melindap.ullrich4564 Жыл бұрын

I really like your idea of using pattern paper over your collage pretty paper it does give it a bit of an antique look and adds nice texture. Thank you for sharing that technique very cleaver.

@joseduijf-arets2623 2 жыл бұрын

With your video you gave me a good idea. I made such a cover several times , but everytime the cover cracked and the parts of scraps were getting loose, even though I put glue over the cover when I was ready with my paper parts. But putting that tissue paper over the cover gifs the scraps of paper no chance to get loose. Thanks a lot for this idea.

I love everything about this video I'm so glad I've found it! The journal is very nice, your voice is very pleasant, your explanations are great - not too much, not too little. There is no rushing nor speeding yet everything flows and everything is interesting - that is the balance hard to achieve. On top of that you didn't ruin the whole thing like so many others with a music, so the video is relaxing and enjoyable! Well done! Now I'm curious to see how you filled the journal... I hope to find that. I feel inspired, thank you x x x
