In My Heart Junk Journal White Rose Crafts DT


Good morning friends, Kim here with my next DT project for White Rose Crafts
Today I have created a junk journal using the gorgeous Yesterday paper by Lemoncraft from the WRC store.


After making the cover of the journal with the paper line, I decorated the front of the journal with some of the gorgeous Recollections flowers and the matching epoxy embellishments.


I created a fun pocket on the cover using the same Lemoncraft paper. I added an image, sentiment, lace and lace heart to embellish the tag.


On the inside cover, I created a flip using more of the paper. The inside of the journal has coffee dyed paper, music paper and more of the Lemoncraft papers to fill up the journal.


I also altered this coffee dyed envelope by fussy cutting out some of the gorgeous roses from the paper, and edging the envelope with some Distress Oxide in Vintage Photo. I added a little bit of lace tatting and some stamping to finish it off.


I bound the journal with embroidery floss and added some vintage buttons to the side as well.


I hope you have enjoyed my project today and will make a shabby junk journal yourself. 
Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you have found some inspiration here!

Gypsy Altered Envelopes ScraPerfect DT




Good morning friends, Kim here today with my next DT project for ScraPerfect.
This time I have altered some envelopes for an upcoming junk journal I am making.


I first coffee dyed the envelopes to make them vintage looking and then got out my bottle of
The Best Glue Ever to help me adhere all the fun items to the envelope.


I layered on some vintage music paper and book paper first with BGE and then while that dried, I did a bit of stamping on the envelopes.


Next, I got into my stash of gorgeous beaded sari material and had so much fun layering on the pieces.


The Best Glue Ever with the no clog writing cap came in handy for adhering the small crystals and gems on top of the sari material.


I also used BGE for some of the lighter sari pieces and it worked great.



Back of the envelopes.


I am happy with how they came out, and had fun making them. I hope you will give these a try!
