Christmas Journal Card

 Last week Beccy asked me in a comment if my tags are thought for a journal
or for a Christmas marked.
The tags and cards I have made so far I hope to sell on a market.

But today I show a journaling card that I made for my new Christmas Journal.
I want to make a journal just for me. 😊

As so many of the things I make, also this one is upcycled. 

The cardstock is from an ice box,
The papers are snippets from a coffee stained paper
and a copy of a music paper.
Image: Gi (Happiness in Crafting).
I also used gesso, stamp, water colour pencils, distress ink and a blue marker for the dots.
This card is a little out of my comfort zone, but I like it.
(On this photo the gold around the image is too yellow.)

Autumn / Fall Journal

 Yesterday I finished this journal. I had so much fun making it!
The patterned papers and images are mostly from Gi, a couple of them from Beccy.
The papers for journaling are coffee stained.
I also made some tags and note books for writing.
The autumn leaves on most of the pages are made with
Memory Box "Falling Maple" stencil.
I also used two maple leaves punches: Artoz (the bigger one) and one unbranded.
Closure: Seam binding coloured with Dylusions Sprays.

On the page to the right  I used gesso to get a little structure.

Behind this tag there is a little note book

A little pocket with a tag.
Cheesecloth and a little punched maple leaf on the tag.
The paper for the leaf is from Beccy.

This little pocket I made of autumn leaves from a freebie from Gi.

This little card has got place for writing on the back. It can be flipped to the left for writing.

I made this card without having any idea of what it would look like at last. 😂 

I have got lots of snippets and try to get rid of them in a creative way.

So here is the first (wild) result of my effort.
There are still lots of snippets lying around!

I used:
Snippets from coffee coloured paper, book pages, packing paper, designer papers from Gi and Lozzy, scraps from different die cuts etc. I even used the "holes" after making tags.
Gesso, stamp, green and red pens.

Journal

 For the first time in my life I have made a journal. Or: I have started making one. There are still enough place for decorating and so on. This journal I will keep for myself to write in, and I have called it "Blessings". There are so many reasons for thanks. I feel blessed all the time! 💜

The journal was made out of one sheet of patterned card stock from Tilda. This is a paper I have had in my stuff for years. The tags are mostly upcycled and covered with napkins. Tag dies: Spellbinders. The quotes are all telling about God's love.

I made 5 signatures, one small one and 4 "normal" for this journal size. Only a few stamps and stenciling are decorating some of the pages.

Well, this is my first try. I think I am going to make more journals later on.

On the front I used Spellbinders: Scalloped Oval and Circle (for the button), Studio Light: Butterfly

 Punches: Martha Stewart Border, EK Success Flower.

The stripe of patterned paper on the pocket is a scrap from a "ABMTTC" paper.

Psalm 23: The Lord is my shepherd

Napkins on two of the tags.

CAS Christmas Card Silver Bell

I love this digi, which I bought from Beccy's store some days ago. Here I have used it on a CAS Christmas card. The sentiment is a stamp from Ricoh. Blue distress ink and silver pen for the edges, silver pen also on the letters to give them depth. The blue scrap paper is a bit structured. I don't know from whom it is.

 The image on this Christmas card is from an old one, where Christmas music was the theme. I wanted to keep the golden notes around the tree.
