Junk Journal With Me

[@marciaporcelli5885]

WOW!!! The collages in this journal are incredibly stunning! It was a pleasure to get a peek at your creations as you were flipping thru it. 😍😍😍😍😍 You’re truly a master of this craft. Thanks for sharing and inspiring. 😘

[@49dragonflies]

Aw, thank you again dear Marcia!!! I really enjoy it when they come together at the end! ❤️

[@SaltLifeGypsy68]

Yes, KZbin I'll definitely watch a 2 year old video of Barbara 's that I've somehow missed, thank you. Of course I've learned new things. Washers & cork make amazing stamps! And a great Van Gogh poem! 🥰👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@49dragonflies]

Haha thank you for watching my old videos! 😃❤️

Oooo Barbara. Love the page you created and enjoyed your method of putting it together. Need to give it a go. Really helpful. Thank you!

[@49dragonflies]

Thank you Erika! You got this! 👍🏻😃❤️

[@RobinfromCA]

What a fun page! I love the washi tapes and I, very fortunately, have a Tuesday Morning near me. They don't always have the same items but you can usually find something from Tim Holtz and tools from We R Memory Keepers. You are definitely my collage guru!

[@49dragonflies]

Aaaaw, thank you Robin! Lucky you to have a Tuesday Morning near you! 👍🏻❤️😃

I like how you made the two pages blend

[@suzanneproulx8768]

I loved this video, colors and design!!

[@ingridellis8237]

I am just in awe of your journals. Those metal things are washers used with nuts and bolts. In German I think Unterlegscheibe,Schraubmutter, Boltzen.

[@49dragonflies]

Haha thank you, you even have the German translation! ❤️😃☺️

[@sueflynn5671]

Those metal pieces are called washers.I have several sizes and will remember to use some.I put alcohol inks on them and made a necklace but you need to do both sides as it turns on a chain or ribbon Thank you Barbara you are so inspirational

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks Sue! What a fabulous idea to make a necklace out of the washers! 😃👍🏻❤️

[@cathyxox3999]

Thanks so much Jules. I thinks it’s just passion and practice to be honest ☺️

[@BlaizC]

Inspire by you, I did a couple of collages on small books that I made to put inside mint tins. They turned out really nice! I will get up the courage to go bigger soon.

[@49dragonflies]

Those sound lovely!!!! What a cute idea! ❤️

[@elizabethflorez2372]

Hello Love❤ Your journal is beautiful

[@sherryvanderpool4024]

Great layout

[@sandybabb8313]

A matte gel medium is thicker and not as wet, will have less wrinkling, my fav is Liquitex brand.

[@janballs564]

You are so creative!!! How do you come up with these incredible ideas???????? You are so talented!!

[@49dragonflies]

Aaaaw, you are always so kind with your comments, Jan! I don’t believe in talent, I believe in passion and hard work 😃

If you put something soft (like a mouse pad) under what you're stamping, the images will come out clearer!! (I do it myself, and it works wonderful!!) I heard it on KZbin!!

Oooh mixed media! Reminds me of my college days....miss those days but can start again right?! Does French Paper Creations only do Etsy? Nice journal, Celine's style seems to be similuar to my style. Your mixed-media pages are lovely. Yes the layering is the mixed-media process. Glad you did a two page together, it pulls it together nicely. I do use/try different glues too but my all time fave still is that 3-in-1...lol Love your washi tape pieces outlining your papers. Oh boy, I do have a Tues Morning near me, so going to get some Tim Holtz washi tape. Awh, that flower press residue is pretty on the page. I notice when I use new stamos, I need to ink them up and use it a few times too. I think that's new stamps are like. TFS

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks once again dear Roksanna! I think French Paper Creations is also on IG. I hope you find those washis as a Tuesday Mornings! 😃 You should do some more mixed media! ❤️

Dear Barbara hi! I wanted to ask you if you have found a nice prompt list for this year or for January by Maud or someone else you are following. I would really love to follow an interesting prompt list and it will be my first time to do that but I haven't found an interesting one yet. I begin to wonder if we should make one ourselves! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@49dragonflies]

Hi Elena. I saw Mia Vibes has one for Junk Journal January on Instagram, but they are quite generic. You can also just google for journaling prompts, there are so many! 😃

[@dawnbryant8778]

This is beautiful 😍 but can I ask? why spend time with the lovely papers as your base just to cover them?

[@49dragonflies]

Thanks. Valid question! 😃 because when I start a page, I usually have no idea what will happen! 😂

[@DefineYourDesigns]

There washers

[@Tracymw99]

I can't find the link for the ruler, am I missing it? TIA!
