Trifold Grunge Junk Journals
OWLs – Junk Journal Gifts for friends Jeffrey and I have a couple of friends with whom we lunch once or twice a month. Shawn lives down the street from us and Lynn lives a couple of blocks away. We call ourselves the OWLs – Other Who Lunch 😉 Last week, I made these for the OWLS. I’m calling them Tri-folds but would appreciate any better naming suggestions… Put any suggestions in the comments 😉 The subject matter is Owls and Crows 😉 The Owl and Crow images used are from my Etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/listing/849611988/halloween-owls-artist-trading-cards https://www.etsy.com/listing/863533079/halloween-crows-artist-trading-cards The Tri-folds were created in the 3″ x 5″ format I have been focused…

Field Notes Booklets – Tim Holtz Grunge Style
Field Notes Booklets I made eight of these and sent seven off to friends and family. This one went to a cousin, because the picture on the front reminded me of one of our aunts as a young woman. It isn’t her, but still… These were a lot of fun to make. Jeffrey did the stitching for me on our vintage Singer 401, a gift from my Baby Sisty, who also was sent one. 😉 I am currently working on a similar mass make of a triple fold tag, the first of which was used as the base in Memories of Mocha. I’ve focused on the 3 x 5 format…

Memories of Mocha Junk Journal
Memories of Mocha A very dear friend’s elderly dog crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday. We are meeting our friend for lunch today and Jeffrey suggested I make something for her. It was a challenge because I only had four pictures of precious Mocha. Because of time constraints, I used folding tags I had already started. Anyway, here it is… NOTE – Stamps used are of my own design. @RubberStamps_com #stampwithus RUBBERSTAMPS.com Enjoy the Making 😉 IMPORTANT NOTE- Some of the links in this post may be Affiliate Links.

How a Junk Journal Idea Starts
This is how an Idea starts… 😉 I watched a YouTube Video by LUISE HEINZL – JUNK JOURNAL ART @luiseheinzl She and a friend were working on projects inspired by a vintage Tim Holtz book – Tim Holtz Distressables 2, published in 2008. I was lucky enough to snag a used copy on Amazon. As I was paging thru the book, I spotted a cute idea on page 6 – Mini Stitched Booklets. That project called for a lot of supplies that are no longer available, but it was easy to see that I could modify the format I have been using for the #100DayChallenge – the 3×5 format with…

Junk Journal Ephemera Timesavers
One of the valuable things I have learned while participating in the #100DayChallenge… Prepare ephemera elements ahead of time, so you can grab them and assemble them, whenever you have a few minutes. In the box to the left, I have many 3 x 5 cards printed and prepped. I have rounded the two corners on each and sometimes, have even distressed the edges. (I tend to distress edges on Mondays when my best friend and I talk on Skype for an hour. 😉 In the plastic boxes I have many, many pre-cut whale tail tabs in many, many colors. This means I can sort out a few 3×5 cards…
