Ahhh, the messy joys of journal making, these started out as three piles of paper, small, medium and large but they didn't stay that way for long.
Merlin was checking up on me from time to time.
Made some interesting pages out of old gardening books, vintage knitting patterns, old library books, old calenders and diaries.
Now to decorate the pages further and put them all together. I just love making these :)
Your mess is so inspiring.....I do love making messes!!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThey look gorgeous! Journal making is so addictive. Merlin looks like such a good helper. :)
ReplyDeletepretty journal
ReplyDeleteSo thats how its done! I've always wondered how you choose what to use! Great pages!
ReplyDeleteSeeing your photos made me go straight up to my workroom and start cutting and glueing.
ReplyDeleteThanks all, but special thanks to Gill for making me laugh, I'll be watching out for your pages!
ReplyDeleteThe pages are really creative. Don't you love kitties who "help"!
ReplyDeleteHi Sharon,
ReplyDeleteI did alot of cutting and glueing and also sewing,but nothing pleased me. So as is my want took up distraction tactics. I came across these wonderful books by Yvonne Skargon.Lots and lots of lovely wood engravings and tales and poetry only about cats.I bought them all off Amazon,all good used copies. If you haven't already do look,they really are a joy.
Oh how I love your top pic! what a wonderful pile just waiting to be put together, great result, I must try some of these pages in my practice journal! Mx
ReplyDeleteI really like these pages (and Stinky Fish Boy looks gorgeous too :-))
