Have you got magazine ads? I'm using these vintage ads and recycled file folders to make neutral journaling cards. I'll use these to stuff in pockets and tucks in my upcoming junk journals.

Thank you, Kathleen. You do awesome tutorials! I love these in the look of them and the fact that you’re using pieces that might otherwise be discarded. It also gives us another way of using digitals that include vintage advertising if we don’t have much access to vintage magazines. 😀💞

Yes, Keryn! I was going to mention digitals ads and then forgot, haha! You are so intuitive about these things. Thank you for always boosting me. Each time, and always if I’m a little discouraged, there you are with a cheerful, supportive comment. You are a blessing to me.

I am so impressed with these tags. What wonderful methods you designed and easy enough for us newer journal makers to follow. Thank you and blessings from Betty in Ohio.

I really love this. And what a brilliant source for genuine, old ads! You’re so smart.

Thanks Dawn! I wouldn’t say I have great thrift stores around me, but now and then I can find what I’m looking for. The antique stores are a little better, but the dealers don’t seem to collect paper, haha. Mostly furniture and hard knickknacks…BTW, ten more days until Valentines!

Such a great use for those old ads. That old magazine was a wonderful find. I've never found such a gem at my local thrift shop. Thanks for another very helpful tutorial.

Thank you Jennifer. It is a great find. My thrift store isn’t the greatest either, but sometimes I get lucky. Keep looking and one of these days…

That magazine was a lucky find and what a great way to use the ads! Mass makes are the best, building up a nice stash of things to add to journals.

That's a bit different, more of a mixed media type thing. The last journal card you showed with the pink color on it, is very pretty. I think I like the ones with color a bit more. Also that mag you showed, 1975, year of my son's birth, lol... I just got some mags at an estate sale recently, so listings for ads coming to my shop. There are some there already, but they are larger page size. TFS Hugs * L

Thank you, I recently discovered you can mix gesso and modeling paste together to paint over a substrate, after it dries you can paint with watercolor on it, say its a piece of wood etc. You would use it on your cards and then paint with watercolor etc...my mind is wheeling lol

Yes, you surely can mix those two Holly - quick, off to your studio to try it out! Thanks so much for watching.

So helpful you are, Kathleen!! Love your creativity with all the ways and means to 'pretty up' a plain ol boring tag!! You're awesome and they all look so perfect!! I need all the help I can get. I think i'm getting too old...or somethin. 🤔 And then you mention the 1975 magazine and go on to say it's 50 years old....omigoodness, I graduated HS in 1975!! 😳Dang where did the time go??? 😮‍💨 Thanks again. Your Journals are absolutely beautiful!! TFS 😍😍😍
