Gosh. All your pages are beautiful. I get something new from everything you create. But that last page? I love how intuitive, loose, and FREE you are. And yet it looks painstakingly planned and executed. This is such an inspiration to me. I strive to be less rigid. Thank you 💚💙

[@patriciainpaper]

Lovely pages! I think the first one is my favorite. The contrast of the dark paint with the peeks of pastel and the markings. It's beautiful!

[@debbiebrewington7635]

All your pages are beautiful - I do have to admit the last pages were my favorite. I tend to lean toward floral designs. 😊

Hi Julie I am not afraid to have a go at Jelly plating now after watching this video. I love how these turned out, especially the pops of black!! Thankyou ❤

[@susanhumphries2830]

That first page was stunning. I thought the additional first page instructions were a bit ridiculous so I just decided to a simple page as sort of a warm up. I did a collage and then added a double pocket with vellum. It gave me a place to tuck the prompts that I had printed out. As always thanks for so much inspiration. I am going to try to recreate your first page. Because I love that.

I've tried all sizes, as an experiment, and I find that I journal differently with each one. I tend to make my Christmas ones bigger because I just love the traditional red, green, gold colours and can easily make use of the space. Saying that I did Junk Journal January in a large converted padded envelope and is my favourite to date. I love them all actually, because now I'm thinking of the accordion ones too which are squarish. All fun and all challenging in different ways x

[@joeobrien5566]

Stunning!

[@Mocha77793]

Really enjoyed watching you create these pages. Gorgeous 😍.

Oh my Meg! How gorgeous! Love the tissue paper floral on last one! Yummy! Haha just looks soooo relaxed! I wanna give the scribbling on the edges a try! Just connects it all together! Tfs❤❤❤

[@ChantelleArts]

This is so good, what a wonderful set up ☺☺

[@susanstemmet607]

Loved all your pages but especially page 5

[@weaver7249]

Meg outdid herself this past week - I must try to do something like this.

[@judiemjacobson4613]

Very nice page spreads. The two main size journals I use are 9 by 6 and a smaller one that is 4 by 6 and sometimes because I use a lot of packaging sometimes I have different sizes but not too often. Blessings and hugs from New Mexico

I love it! My fav is actually the first one oooh and also the last one with napkins. Thank u for sharing your process, this really inspires me to use more medium in my journal ❤

[@teresacraig3166]

I love all your ideas, you are very creative. I wish I had heard you discribed how & why you did it your work but i couldnt hear you all that made me sad.

[@aysegultosun264]

Hi, really enjoyed watching your video, thanks for sharing. Q: can I use PVA glue instead of this Matt medium thing you’re using to create the same effect? Thanks

[@megjournals]

Kinda, but PVA dries shiny, whereas Matte medium has the matte effect. Which also helps your pages not to stick together when your journal is closed!
