Junk Journal Created for a Friend

Hello creative friends.  I hope you are doing well.  I received a lot of ephemera and papers from a friend and decided to make a junk journal for her and one for myself.  I used the papers I received from her for the pages and some of the decorations, but used packaging I had in my stash from a mailer to make the covers.  Here are a couple of videos showing how I made these journals and decorated them and a flip through of the completed journals.

Rolodex Cards

Hello creative friends.  I decided to decorate some rolodex cards.  I have a rolodex I got from my husband so that I can decorate the cards.  Here is the video showing how I decorated some of the cards.

Alice in Wonderland Little Golden Book Journal Creation

Hello creative friends.  I made a journal out of an Alice in Wonderland little golden book.  I used the front and back cover from the book and then added a 2 1/2" spine.  I sewed in various papers from my stash and the pages from the book.  I then added pockets, tags, and a spine dangle to finish it off.  Here are a couple of videos showing how I created this journal.



I really love how this journal turned out.  Have you made a journal out of a little gold book before?  I would love to know.  I hope you have a great day and happy creating.
