Junk Journal Cover Idea

Do you enjoy journaling or collecting creative ideas in a Junk Journal or Art Journal? I decided I would like to have a little journal to make notes or express some creativity!

I started with cutting 3 pieces of kraft cardstock to 4x12 and I folded them in half. I used a punch to create the binding option for the left side. Next, I gathered a few of my favorite Eyelet Outlet supplies! I decided to create a background with a vintage inspired theme! I created my framed flapper girl as the focal point with washi tapes too!  I just love their versatility! So, no matter your particular color schemes or interests you could easily replicate this idea! There are so many options!

I created a slim tag and stamped my sentiment "Think Happy Thoughts" and added some ribbons to finish off the cover! I can't wait to start adding to my little junk journal! I hope you enjoy!

Thank you so much for stopping by! Don't forget to shop at Eyelet Outlet for all your crafting needs!

Halloween Mini Book

Hi all Erin here.  Time for a fun Halloween mixed media mini junk book.  Filled with all kinds of layers and fun Eyelet Outlet gems, brads, and more it is a chance to play and have fun!!

Here is a video tutorial on how I constructed the book and added in all the colors with mists on each page - the bones of the book have you.  When it was done it looked like a little briefcase!

Here is what one of the pages looked like before I added in all the embellishments.

I then let it all dry and added in some fun to each page with Eyelet Outlet brads, gems, and enamel dots, plus some other fun things. 

Here is the video on adding in all the fun embellishments.

Here are some up close pictures of some of the pages.

Inspire Art Junk Journal w/ Video Tutorial

I wanted to re-create a junk journal a friend and I made about 2 months ago so I used the supplies I had on hand in my stash to make a new one!  A little bit of everything went into this little book from all the companies I work with, for that is what a junk journal is all about anyway pulling things together from what you have!!!

I used a ton of fun embellishments from Eyelet Outlet including Green, Yellow and Pink Flowers, Purple Pearl Strips, Grey Jewels, Pink and Yellow Enamel Dots, Aqua Stickyback Bling Flourishes, Pink and Yellow Oval Gems, and Crystal Bumpy Bling.

Here is a video tutorial where I add in all the embellishments and give a final walk through of the mini book.

I also used Rubbernecker Stamps to help embellish the journal.  I used the stamps below.

Here are a few up close pictures of the journal inside.

I hope I have inspired you to make something fun a cool.  Thanks for stopping by!!
