It is finally time to start using the Scrap Die-cut images whose origin and uses I talk about in my blog post Collectable vintage Scrap die-cuts / German Glanzebilder. In that article (and video) I show a lot of fun examples, and in today’s video, I’m finally going to glue some of them down on […]

Trip documented: Festival of Quilts Vlog
Since we’re not allowed to travel anywhere, I have been diving into past travels via photos and video clips. This month I’ve uploaded the vlogs I filmed two years (!) after the actual Festival of Quilts that I attended in Birmingham, UK, but hey sorry not sorry. I just have the time to do a […]
Summer is for Reading {Fantasy} Books
I think that autumn and winter is for writing. To cozy up inside, preferably under a quilted blanket with a cup of tea or hot coffee, and write your next big novel or just to journal or compose your next blog post. And summer? It’s for reading. For sitting in the sun, if it’s not […]
Note to self: Shake things up
Observe constantly that all things take place by change, and accustom thyself to consider that the nature of the Universe loves nothing so much as to change the things which are, and to make new things like them. Marcus Aurelius As with everything I think it’s important to not do “the same” all the time. […]
Re-using an Unused Calendar
I have started a new project. It is about repurposing an unused and expired planner/ calendar, and giving it new life. It’s the kind of enriching and fun project I love to do because it costs next to nothing (except new glue sticks) and it saves a notebook from going into the trash unusued. I […]
Black Lives Matter
Black lives matter is a movement, a truth and a statement I will always sign. In fact, it is baffling to me that not everyone can or will or want to do that. That not everyone is raised to understand this truth… I think it’s time we all step up, and state our anti-racism everywhere, […]
Junk Journal: Room for the soul [Video Process]
Another junk journaling video from me. But… I think it was a bad idea to dedicate one journal for filming every spread of in. It’s totally not the way to fall in love with a journal for me. How to fall in love with a journal is to live with it intensely, to work on […]
Process Video: Junk Journaling another page
I finally finished editing another episode of “Junk journaling with iHanna”, so here’s another video of me working in my summer meadow fabric covered Junk Journal.
Art Journal Peek | A Tiny Book of Cut and Paste
I love love love making tiny books. You just fold a couple of papers together, and then you have something to keep working with/in/on. This tiny book of cut and paste is one of the many mini art journals that I have made through the years. It is perfect for summer, if you’re going somewhere […]
Dear Photo Diary | Our Magnolia Tree
If people did not love one another, I really don’t see what use there would be in having any spring.Victor Hugo Dear Photo Diary, sorry it’s been a while. I haven’t taken a lot of photos with my big camera lately. Life is at a stand still, not just for me, but for much of […]

World Collage Day – An International Celebration of Collage. Hello world! I’ve been busy with the DIY Postcard Swap these past days (all address lists sent out, see further down for details), but late Saturday on dad’s birthday (9th of May) I discovered on instagram there is something called World Collage Day – and I […]
