Junk Journal for Autumn

 

Welcome to my Home : 

This Friday I am showing off my latest paper project : Junk Journal Album 



What is Junk Journal ?

A junk journal is a book that’s made (usually by hand) out of found and recycled materials, such as paper scraps, book pages, music sheets, maps, illustrations, and ephemera (think stamps, ticket stubs, postcards, greeting cards, fussy cut pictures, etc), and is a place where you can record your thoughts, ideas, memories, and musings.

Difference than Scrapbooking?

The main difference – of course – is the “junk” side of junk journals where crafters often use recycled or repurposed items; not just items bought from a craft store.

But the best thing about junk journals is that you don’t need to follow any set rules or guidelines either. So perhaps a more accurate junk journal definition is this instead:



Materials :

  • 6 matching envelopes
  • Supplies from my stash
  • glue

Make the envelopehttps://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/envelopealbum/ album . Then decorate with papers, stickers, ink pads and more too add color and intrest.
