I recently discovered your you tube channel and I have been binge watching old and new videos. I've been making cards for many years and have never done a junk journal. It hasn't stopped me from making several of the paper crafting items you've demonstrated... library card envelopes, ephemera holders, travel "box" for craft supplies to name a few. Many of your designs and use of stamps, tags, etc can be used in my card making. You have opened my eyes to using things I would have recycled or overlooked in the past. I wanted to thank you for your clear directions, for showing alternate ways to achieve results without tons of crafting tools, your humor and your inspiration (and your generosity sharing free digital downloads). ❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

My pleasure 😇

[@carolcottrell3270]

My hubby asked my today to make him a journal! I wouldn’t give him the Gunther so this is perfect.!

[@janetstubbington583]

Thank you, Margreth, for the kit and the freebie. Love them all.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

😁👍🏻

[@btracey]

Beautiful kit! I only have one wish about your digitals… that you would incorporate the ring journal pages to full backgrounds that can be folded in half without the ring binding. I love the addition of the background pages. So yummy😊 great freebie ertoo. Fun fun fun. Thank you 🙏 wonderful ideas using the file folder it’s fab❤

[@dominiquedevresse8408]

Really grungy style. It's beautiful. The colors mixed together really well, and the file color is suitable for the whole kit tone. Thanks for this pocket idea 😉

[@corinatukker2808]

I can say only one thing on the plan for this month 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 My o my, a new journal idea. I'm so longing for this. Thank you so much, Margreth. Also, for the beautiful digikit. I love it, but you already knew that ❤

[@cherylparish1375]

I knew I needed this kit in my life just by watching your preview! I started watching the video earlier but had to go to the doctor. I purchased the kit before I left and could not wait to get home to start printing. It's even better than I had imagined! I make journals for Cancer patients and to my surprise, men wanted journals as well. So this will be my go to paper for them for the upcoming donation. I'm so excited! Thank you! ❤😊

[@SevenplazaCreative]

[@sunsh1ne539]

Your amazing. I have planned a journal to hold all the accumulated bits and pieces that family and friends give you over the years that hid in drawers - Treasures. But I've been procrastinating because the Idea I had just wasn't quite right so only 2 pages have been done. This I love love love so now I will deconstruct those 2 pages and with your inspiration I may get further than 2 pages. THANK YOU so much I love your tutorials, your kits & freebies are gorgeous and already for me to download & purchase. Keep up the brilliant work. Terri,

This is amazing! My son is a journal or, specifically a Bible journal. He has been through his Bible at least four times. I made him a journal using your field notes collection, but I cannot wait to get my hands on this collection and make him one from here. This is his birthday month, maybe he’ll get two journals for the year. Lol.

[@SevenplazaCreative]

[@rkug777]

Love the kit and that it’s a bit diff from other kits (I bought two before)! This one is so amazing in its colors and design. Hard to get good masculine kits like this. Bought it and hoping to start the project. It’ll take me a few weeks no doubt, crafting after work here and there. My perfectionist brain is wondering how to figure out the exact print sizes if our journal (book) cover is smaller than US letter size… I.e. print at 80%, 78% etc. Wheels churning lol. May be do one set at 100% and then adjust to reduce the second set of prints. Thanks for the amazing inspiration as always ❤

[@SevenplazaCreative]

👍🏻🥰

[@lindaknol1647]

ohhh wat geweldig deze kit! erg mooi! ook leuk om een soort junk journal foto map van te maken van je man of vader...erg leuk! en heerlijk weer samen een journal te maken , net als de vorigen. ik ga meteen je digikit kopen en printen...kan al wel wat knippen weer...journal maken moet nog even wachten. en leuk ook het gebruik van die mooie stempel van Esther. dank je wel Margreth, en tot woensdag!🤗😘😊

[@PonceStibbo]

Congrats for this beautiful kit! I once wrote that I am not into digitals but enjoyed your crafting with them and got inspired. Got me 😄 I downloaded some digitals for a few weeks - yours and Tracie Fox to name a few 😍... and I started to play with them (after having had my printer updated and got him new inks)... and now for something completely different: I think I mentioned it once before; give Glossy Accents by Ranger a chance when it comes to glue something smooth, metallic, or acetat. I can really recommend it, it is clear, dries quickly and last but not least, glues perfectly. For example, I use it for shaker cards and lately glued a skirting board 🤣 And now for something completely different; I just watched Tonis (Crafty by Toni) video concerning the folder for her Craftly Hall project. There are so many great crafters I admire, but you and Toni I enjoy the most. You and Toni express the joy of crafting like none other❤ Thank you... and sometimes the boni of Daisy and Jackson (Margreth) and some barking in the background (Toni) ❣ You're the BEST!

[@SevenplazaCreative]

Thank you so much ☺️

[@FullMoonLoonDesigns]

Another amazing digital kit (and video!) Thank you! And I agree, not a fan of prompts. I just got the kits and printing now, watched the video the other night and ready to play!
