I love a fresh start, don’ you? A few years ago when I was at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham I got some really lovely art supplies (mostly fabrics), and in that I include a few packages of gift wrap that I bought at a toy shop. I have actually never seen gift wrap […]

Making a Christmas Junk Journal for myself
How do you put a Christmas junk journal together? How do you decide what cover to use and what papers to include as pages? Here are some of my thought process about just that. It’s not a tutorial, but hopefully you’ll find the video inspiring. Last year I wanted to do a series on YouTube […]
Calming Scalloped Pattern | Paint along with me!
For one of the last pages in my Summer Junk Journal I had a blank watercolor paper to fill, so I decided to film the process of me filling it with this fun, easy to create scalopped pattern in rows. I filmed my process and talked a lot – so… Related PostsIKEA hack | Shelf […]
Fill a tiny journal: Washi Tape Love
This post is all about our lov… obsession (!) with washi tape! Imagine a never ending sticker – on a roll, in all the world’s most beautiful patterns and colors? And it already exists, and it is called washi tape. I think most of us already call ourselves curators of an extensive collection of this […]
Fill a tiny Journal: Make a List
If you want to add text but don’t know what to journal about then writing a list is always a good idea. I love list-writing so much I even have a blog category called I write Lists where you can find wish lists, link lists and more. I am a list-maker, but if you struggle […]
Fill a tiny journal: Dreams
I think that it is interesting how much thought I have given to the words of our prompts for the Fill a tiny journal project, philosophically speaking. Or rather, over-thinking it. I didn’t feel to well last week so I didn’t post on Friday when the prompt was “dream” but here I am with the […]
Spring Challenge: Fill a Tiny Journal with Hanna a...
Do you like art journaling and tiny journals? Then I’ve got an invitation for you to play along with! We’ve put together a list of journaling prompts with which we will work to fill a tiny journal, and each Friday for the next nine weeks we will be sharing a finished spread (or page) on […]
Getting the Vintage Look
We see it in Art Journaling, notebooks, art and sometimes even on Bullet Journal spreads… It is the look of something newly created that looks one hundred years old or more. It is the Vintage Look of old ephemera, brown paper, yellowed book pages, old hand-drawn illustrations, black-and-white photography and all that jazz. If you […]
Working in multiple Art Journal volumes
Are you working in many Art Journals at the same time? Maybe too many to keep track of? I know the feeling. When I started with art journaling many years ago, I always worked in just one, big Art Journal at a time – from start to finish. It helped keep me focused and it […]
Process Video: Filling pages in a Junk Journal
I have started working in the pretty journal that I showed you in my last video. Yay! Finally, right? This is an Art Journal/Junk Journal that I bound together a few years ago. I will try to “fill it up” before the end of the year, but it might take a bit longer than that. […]
Junk Journal Video: Flip through
Today I want to share a Junk Journal that I bound a while ago, but never started using at the time. Flipping through its pages I think you’ll get a pretty good idea what you yourself could save and include in a mixed paper journal if you want to make one for yourself. So take […]
Creating a new Traveler’s Notebook Art Journal
I am all over the place with Art Journaling. Or not at all, I’m not sure. I am not really working consistently in the different books I have going at the moment, so I should concentrate on just one or two I guess… Maybe I need to finish those ongoing art journals or simply be […]
