My First Junk Journal #1 Making the Signatures

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 

Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate. I am so excited to be sharing with you my first Junk Journal.  I have wanted to make one for such a long time but never gave myself the time to do it. Well this year I decided that I would spend at least one day a week to craft for me. I decided that I would finally put photos in my mini albums and I would record my memories and actually put the hours and hours of watching YouTube videos into practice and make a Junk Journal!

So this is a series that takes you through the process from start to finish ...not that it is finished yet or course! It is a work in progress and I hope you will join me. I have made mistakes and I have learned from them and I have enjoyed every minute.

Measurements and Materials

I normally give you the measurements of my projects, but for this project this will not always be possible as it is often not precise as it involves ripping paper!

The signatures in this Junk Journal are me using A4 sheets folded in half to make an A5 sized journal.

I have used ordinary copier paper, music printed paper, graph paper, pattered paper, old maps, book pages, doilies and envelopes that I dyed with coffee, tea and avocado.

I have used Stampin' Up! inks and stamps and lots of long neglected stash that have been hoarded over the decades!

Now watch the first video tutorial in this Junk Journal series :-)
