Creating Covers From Vintage Magazines

[@CozyHomePaperstudio]

Good morning Diane!☕️ The covers are so pretty!! I'm looking forward to the process of these journals coming together ❤️

Hi Diane, what gorgeous magazine images. And of course, by the time you finished "diane-ifying" them, they became wonderful eclectic journal covers. Thanks! Hazel

The vintage magazines and their illustrations are very beautiful. I really enjoy the process！

[@debbiesavage7107]

I think these covers are wonderful! ❤ I’m sure the bubbly one would sell, too. Can’t wait to see how they all turn out!

Thank you for your inspiration. I have an old scrapbook that has old Farmers Wife magazine covers. Tha covers were just beautiful back then. I am going to follow along and make a journal too.

Wonderful!

These are going to be real beauties Diane! The covers and pictures you chose are gorgeous!

[@PamVanEeJournalMaker]

Wow! Such stunning magazine covers. These will be gorgeous!❤

[@littlegoldiesbooks]

Thanks for sharing your technique. Using those magazines can be tricky.

Love that cover🎉...good idea with the modge podge over the old pages. I have beautiful pictures from my mother that was out of old magazines and is going to do the same to preserve them. Thanks Diane i always learn something from your videos and it's easy to follow and doesn't cost the earth.😂❤

[@DianeHubertPrettyPinkCottage]

Just know that the mod podge will cause your magazine pages to wrinkle. Thanks for watching and leaving comments. I really appreciate it!

These are gorgeous covers, I’m glad you found a way to create with them. It would have been a shame to not have a way to put them to good use.❤ Tammie

Love the magazine pages from back in the day. So beautiful!

[@lesliespeers2739]

Beautiful pictures of women back then. I have some old mags that I saved with pictures like that. I've not seen covers made like this, so it was a good lesson for me. TFS Hugs * L

Diane, do you know of a way to preserve a very old magazine page so it can be used in a journal with both sides showing? There’s laminating, but I don’t want the page to be quite that thick. Have you used the fuse-a-cereal-bag trick?

[@DianeHubertPrettyPinkCottage]

I'm sorry, I don't know of a way. I've never done the cereal bag thing. Sorry I'm no help with that!

[@suzyallen1726]

These are so beautiful. You could put them on canvases and hang on the wall. But great for covers too.😊❤what actually is tie back. Ive heard mention before is it a bookmaking material?

[@judyann4793]

Tyvek. It is what the FedEx (and other) envelopes are made from. You can also get Tyvek tape at Home Depot, Lowes. Google it.

[@DianeHubertPrettyPinkCottage]

Tyvek. It’s like paper, but not tear-able. Nice for reinforcing spines.

[@judyann4793]

Love these! What are the dimensions?

[@DianeHubertPrettyPinkCottage]

8 1/2”x 11”
