hey Chris, I started bc my mum was an amazing paper crafter, I started making greeting cards with her and then it just moved into junk journals when i saw a video on youtube about them. I did learn bookbinding when i was 16 at a print shop job i worked at. so it come full circle and I love keeping out of trouble lol ♡☆🦋 hugs Donna

Hello Donna, this video is brilliant. I wish I had known these things when I first started journaling, and even though I have been journaling now for a little while (over four years for sure, maybe even five???), there were parts of your video that I would call positive reinforcement for experienced journalers, but there where definitely pages that I would never have thought of without this video. I will be watching it again with pen and paper. Thank you Donna for sharing your knowledge and talent with us. You are amazing.

It's great to see others perspective when we create, and I love that you find it well explained. I'm sure you only have to change up some minor ways of doing your pages (if any lol) The tattered page is a fun page to make and once you put your own spin on it even better! stamps look great in journals i agree with you there Marthy.

The colored paper you said your mum made is beautiful. Would you know how she did that? I love your easy but cool ideas. The staggered pockets you made in the previous video gave me another idea and thats to use the decorative scissors and cut your edges wonky. Then use different colored inks to color the edges. I think that would look cool.

hi Martha, It's true, glue sticks tend to dry out and lose adhesion over time, particularly on surfaces like heavier paper, cardstock, or fabric, its best to use a long lasting glue, like fabri-tac (helma fabric glue) or Bearly art glue they are more reliable (i have used the glue sticks for some demo's to speed up my tutorial) 🥰🐝🌹🦋 crafty hugs Donna
