Junk Journaling!

Hi, friends!  I've joined my friend, Clare from Miscanthus Crafts, in a journey on junk journaling for 2014!  I've got my first page to share with you...I'll tell you the "junk" I used after you see the final product. :)

Here's the page~


Details~




For these fabulous challenges~




Junk used: cardboard from a dinner box, black and gold packaging from canvas strip, old gold tissue paper, scrap papers.

I LOVE the way this turned out!  Now to figure out what to do with it???  Hmmm...any suggestions?

I used this quote because it's part of my resolutions for this year.  I'm going to try to love more, talk unkindly less, and share the love that I feel from God with those around me!  I'm also doing an interesting money saving thing that I might share with you later...but that's a totally different post. ;)

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek!  I hope you've been inspired to take a peek today and to try something NEW!  I also hope you'll consider joining in the fun of JUNK JOURNALING!  You can email Clare for more info. ;)


That's all for me tonight!  I'll be back sometime in the near future with another page for your viewing pleasure!  HUGS and happy stamping to you all! :)

Hope you can follow through on your resolutions they are certainly really good ones and inspiring too. I love this "junk" journal page. I think you should make a series of pages one for each month and feature them on an easel in the house to help you remember your resolution.

Like your page a lot. Don't you just love using stuff that normally would be thrown away. I would turn it into a book.
