Making Journal/Collage Cards

Hey Guys - I have had this pile of papers, vintage comics, images and scrap cut aparts sitting around on my desk for awhile now so I piled them all into a tray and tried to make a dent in them by making some Journal/Collage Cards. I hope you enjoy watching & my love, thoughts and prayers go out to anyone affected by the fires in California & Oregon. Big Hugs - Sarah xxx

Nice to hear from you 🍁🍂🍁

That was so fun, glad you were able to share a little crafting with us. I just love your style and had been missing seeing you create.

[@TheMushroomMarket]

Thank you so much Tammie, Sorry I will try to post more often ~ August was a really busy month xxx

[@tfntexas]

The Mushroom Market no worries at all... I know life can get very busy. We will see you when you have time 🙂.

I love how you use vintage book pages with modern scrapbook paper. Your cards turned out so cute!

[@carolstern3647]

Wow!! Sarah.I love everything about your scrap collage journal cards. The childrens book scraps and stitching and adding the little bits of lace, PERFECT!!! 💗😊👌💗

[@TheMushroomMarket]

Carol that is so lovely of you to say thank you! I have to admit I really love using this type of combo with the comics, bright papers and black and white pieces. Add a bit of Washi and sewing and your done! I just wish I could work a little faster to get more done and make more of a dent in those scraps lol. Hope you are keeping well xxx

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch Dawn, I'm really happy you enjoyed it xxx

A tip: you can watch movies on Flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.

[@samsonuriah9651]

@Chaim Clark Yup, have been using Flixzone} for since december myself =)

[@shereekarr685]

I so enjoyed your video. Love all the ephemera cards you made and love the music you played while working. What kind of music is this,its so relaxing. Thanks again for a fantastic tutorial❤❤❤

[@TheMushroomMarket]

Thank you so much Sheree :). Both songs being played is from a band called Velvet Moon, from my music subscription.

[@michelegilmer4679]

Sarah that was lovely. Love the use of all the scraps

[@TheMushroomMarket]

Thank you so much Michele, I'm so glad you enjoyed! xxx

[@julieb8457]

Welcome back! I have a similar problem. I have such a huge mess in my craft room, and it completely stresses me out! Love these little journaling cards! So sweet!

[@TheMushroomMarket]

Hi Julie! Oh I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one! I feel like I sit there and make things like this up and then look over to my pile and I can't even see the dent I have made lol. In reality I know the pile of scraps is going to head back into my craft room in a few days, but I hope I can make double the amount up tomorrow. Really happy you enjoyed watching, thank you for taking the time xxx

[@francesserpa6183]

Thank You! :)

[@beautybug1831]

Your journaling cards are so unique & beautiful 💖😎✂ Needless to say, you can sell them as digital files to in your store (or at least, scan them for yourself - it's always useful as a plan B solution).

[@TheMushroomMarket]

Oh thank you so much! I always think scanning your own work and reusing it is such a good idea! It's also fun for others to have! xxx - Sarah

[@christinacreatesau]

This is inspiring Sarah. I think coles has a more brown lunch bag. Now I’ll have to go look at Woolworths to see if there’s lighter slightly yellow ones. Anything to have an art craft attack while in lockdown. 😀

[@TheMushroomMarket]

Hi Christina! Yes actually looking back I realised it has Coles on the brown lunch bags, so maybe woolies do the more yellow ones. The yellowish ones are actually a more smoother tone which Is really nice! I like using a combo of both, and they are so cheap! You can use them for so much to! I hope you are keeping well during lockdown, I hope that in the next few weeks things are looking a lot better! Take care xxx - Sarah

[@christinacreatesau]

Thanks Sarah. Yep, it was fine through Melbourne winter. Lots of crafting and videos. But now it’s spring, I want parks and picnics :) I’m sure it won’t be long. Definitely miss Noosa! Stay well , hugs, Christina

[@TheMushroomMarket]

@@christinacreatesau Oh I don't blame you! I keep watching and hoping for things to continuing looking better for Victoria xxx

[@alidaz9725]

This video was so relaxing, just what I needed. Where did you get your washi tape packs from? Really lovely designs on them.

[@TheMushroomMarket]

I'm so glad it was relaxing to watch! The Washi tape samples I got from a penpal and also the others in happy mail to. I love Washi tape samples like that, so many to choose from!!! xx
