Moon and Six Pence #2

 

Mixed media cover with a painted Tyvek spine reinforcement, decorated with layered book pages and wildflower die-cuts.

I included several tissue dyed papers.

Collaged pockets which includes a hidden journaling card.

I clipped in some printed images from an ephemera pack I purchased at Shein.

I love this book garter closure.

Journals to the People: Petunia

This little  journal found a new life.

It’s been lingering in the cupboard for nearly two years. Petunia was one of the original stash busters, using some food packaging for the cover, left undecorated, waiting for its purpose.

Fast forward to yesterday and here she is, all dressed up, waiting for the trip to Tennessee (Lindsey Zenors Marketplace) and beyond.

She’s a scrappy little clean-up journal and a bit of a fatty. I think the cover was a box of tea. It measures  5 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2, 5 signatures, 188 pages .

 

The scrapbook papers came my way through a variety of swaps, so anything goes here…yet again.

Journals to the People: Chrysalis

 

This journal was created for Lindsey Zenors Marketplace. She has an online consignment shop at her website Nevermore Creations 17.

This was created as a challenge journal where we’re required to use specific digitals from her shop. I used the “Mariposa” paper pad from DCWV.

Journals to the People: Storytime

 

This super sweet journal went out to Lindsey Zenors Marketplace consignment shop at Nevermore Creations 17. I love this image of the little girl reading to the birds so I called this one “Storytime”. 

It’s a challenge journal where we’re given a short list of Lindsey’s digitals that are required in each journal.

I started with a cover using a butterfly themed DCWV paper pad called Mariposa. 

The theme is pretty eclectic but heavy on the botanicals, butterflies and birds.

I made a scrappy snippet belly band. Torn up pieces of paper sewn onto another piece (strip) of paper.

This journal came out so cute. These are not colors I tend to use much but I’m really happy with the results.
