Tutorial & freebie: How I make collage covers for junk journals

[@anitaf.2521]

🙋🏻‍♀️ thank you for your ideas. Also I was trying to find your freebies on patreon. Didn’t see any.

[@JuniDesiree]

Oh so you just search freebies in the search bar or freebie

JD, you have NO IDEA how reassuring it is to me to hear someone like you, whom makes so many JJ weekly, say that you can still agonize for an hour over just one cover! :D this is something i'm trying hard to improve on, this agonizing over whether this collage would be better if i moved that piece half milimeter to the right or try dozen options. I'm just starting to limit myself to a few fabric and paper "for this time around" and to "just don't think too much and MOVE ON!". It is SO hard but in the end also satisfactory when you do a dozen of cards/tags/whatever instead of 2. (PS : the date was August 7th , 1925 and "Plaster and Marble Company" ;p)

Hehe yep I can take so long doing collages but eventually I think after doing so many, you just learn what goes together to suit your eye. Aww how fun! Cheering you on!

Hi Juni, I love collage, it's my favorite paper craft in journals. I absolutely love your covers!! I love the combination of vintage and soft colors. I like that combination when I do shabby chic journals.

[@JuniDesiree]

Thank you so much

I love collage, but still in the learning stage. You're right it really takes you out of your comfort zone. Some people I watch are naturals, which I think makes it easier for me to learn. Your covers are beautiful and so are your digital collages. TFS

[@JuniDesiree]

Hehe it took a lot of goes before it started feeling more comfortable. Lots and lots of practice

[@nnid786]

I would take photo before gluing everything then I can remember x

[@JuniDesiree]

I’ve done that usually when I leave it overnight

Hallo from Indonesia... I love your cover... Very nice.... May I know what type of paper you used to print your ephemera? Are they all from digi print?

[@JuniDesiree]

Thank you so much. The ephemera is original from France so no digitals were used

[@bbsclosetcreations]

Hahahaha !!! The black screen catching you off guard 😂 . Girl , I wish I could do voice overs !! They're hard for me lol . Collaging is still hard for me and I'm still trying to learn it 😫 but I would get irritated with how time consuming it is 😞

[@JuniDesiree]

Hehe it took me a while to get used to them and lots of practice doing collages

[@bbsclosetcreations]

@@JuniDesiree yes girl ! Exactly, it's not so easy for me and I envy people to who it comes naturally to hahaha ... but obviously in a good way 🤣🤣🤣

[@Karen3263]

[@JuniDesiree]

[@ellanoormemorybooks]

And you just glue this on the cover off the journal?

[@JuniDesiree]

Yep with clear craft glue
