Vintage Botanical Junk Journal - Choosing Papers & Making Signatures

[@kathrynhelm4176]

This was only the fourth video of yours that I’ve watched and it couldn’t have been more timely. I went to your Amazon store to look for those little velcro closures and found this book that looked interesting but it was in German and I couldn’t figure out what the book was. Well, when you whipped out that book to use for pages (the wrapping paper book) I laughed and went back to your Amazon store and ordered it. 👍🥰. I haven’t tried a Medori style yet but watching this has made me decide to give it a try. ❤️

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

Oh yes that book is gorgeous. Wait til you see all the others they do. I've resisted temptation so far as I'm on a mission to use what I have wherever possible. The upside is that if you don't like some of the sheets for crafting you can actually use them for their intended purpose 😁😅🤗💜

I’ve enjoyed watching your process and how you decide. Looking forward to pt 3. 🇦🇺

[@jacobsenlolly7246]

Thanks so much for all the videos and ideas. I subscribed right away after watching the first few ones. Love your sense of humor and your funny comments while making your projects never fail to make me laugh😂! Makes it even more pleasant watching them! More power to you, Julie and keep the inspiration coming!

LOVE your ledger book!!! I, too, just ordered one from Etsy!!!!! I hope mine will be as nice as yours!!!!!!!!!! I am LOVING your journal! I am going to make myself one and get busy. I think my problem is I watch too many people and I get so confused with ideas and my mind just get boggled down. I am going to have to just get focused and stay with one project at a time...mabe two!!!! haha!!!!!

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

I hear you Betty, i'm exactly the same. There are one or two projects i know i have to complete and i think it's blocking the creativity. Anyway one of them will be up on Saturday and it's something totally new for me😁😊🤗💜

How interesting, my youngest can't read cursive. That ledger is gorgeous!

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

My youngest who is dyslexic can't either. She had a really bad time in school when the head decided all children had to use it😐🤗💜

Evening Lady :) Stolen a little time from my 2 boys to watch you :D I've got a book cover somewhere, so I'm going to be giving this a shot :D That ledger...delicious!......so is that wrapping paper book...oh dear, shopping list is growing! lol Your glue pin was completed today, so I'll be popping it off to you in the next day or so :)

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

Hello Mrs😊 Lovely that you're enjoying the company of your boys🤗 Yes give it s go, they come together do quick and you can keep altering or adding to them indefinitely. The ledger is yummy, I'll send you some for yours. It won't take me a month to pack that up😅🤗💜

[@janerushton8263]

@@CameliaCraftsDesigns Its been lovely having them both again, but the eldest goes home tomorrow. The book cover I've got is one of those reader's digest ones, should make a nice little journal :D Ohh, thank you, I'd love some :) Never had the chance to play with real ledger paper before, just the pintables, so that'll fun.

I googled the watermark, link below xx

Arghh I've banned links from comments as I was getting quite a few very unsavoury ones that had nothing to do with junk journals 😳 Thank you do much, I'll try to find it🤗💜

@@CameliaCraftsDesigns no problem my lovely, I completely understand. There are some horrible people out there. I just love watching your KZbin Channel. Keep up the great work xx

[@samanthalewis2576]

Love the papers you are using. I seriously need to find me some ledger paper. I will definitely be checking out Ebay. What is the name of the last book you used... with the wrapping paper? It's gorgeous!

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

Hi Samantha that's a link to Amazon UK for the book amzn.to/3lwKyv6 I can't spell it😅 Just searched it on Amazon com and was shocked at the $25 price tag😳 it's £7.81 here 💜

[@wandaspencer9523]

Would that be a company watermark on the pages?

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

It might be Wanda, I'm going to pinch my light board back from my daughter and see if it will show on camera 😊💜🤗

[@BonesAndButtons]

Could the bit (on the watermark) that looks like a wheelchair be a shield? Looks like Britannia to me. So jelly of all the lovely old stuff you can get in the U.K.! Here in New Zealand anything like that is rare and far too expensive. The other day I talked to the manager of a charity shop asking if I could buy all the old paper wotnots they usually chuck out when they do an estate clearance. She said no! She looked at me like I was crazy! Well, I am, but when someone offers you good money for your trash...! Honestly, I could have struck her! 🤨😫😉

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

I can be so dense sometimes 😅 You hit the nail on the head, of course it's a shield🙄 I'm going to see if it will show on camera using my light board. It's a very odd image. That attitude if that charity shop manager just beggars belief. I was very lucky to find that ledger on eBay for that price. Tobe honest I don't get out and about to places where I could find that sort of stuff and the eBay sellers are quite savvy. 😊🤗💜

[@robertamiller9096]

Why don't you tea or coffee dye that white page you don't like.

[@CameliaCraftsDesigns]

Why on earth would I do that Roberta? It's far too obvious and makes too much sense😳 I tell you the obvious escapes me sometimes😅🤗💜
