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!
Two of my favorite things to do are
crafting and cooking, so why not combine the two together?!? I made
some yummy chicken stock in my crockpot, then used the Eyelet Outlet
Washi tape as labels. I then used the same washi tape for the cute
little card when I give some of the chicken stock away to friends and
family.
Here is a video tutorial on how to made the labels for the containers, how to make the cards, and the chicken stock recipe!!
Both
of these items, the container of homemade chicken broth and the card,
could be given as a gift to someone for when they are sick, need a pick
me up, or just to let them know you are thinking about them. So if you
are giving a gift you have to have a card to go with it!!

Step 2 - Make the Stock
Ingredients

Veggies, Herbs, and lime from above

Other herbs (sage, parsley, etc)
Any other veggie you have
Instructions
Combine all the ingredients in the slow cooker: Place
all the bones, skin, small bits of chicken, tendons, neck, etc all in
the pot. Roughly chop the vegetables and herbs and scatter them around
the chicken.
Cover with water: Add enough water to cover the chicken bones.
Cook for at least 8 hours: Set the slow cooker to "low"
and cook for at least 8 hours or just overnight. When you wake in the
morning just turn it off to cool.
Strain the stock: Set a strainer over a large bow l and pour entire stock through the strainer into the bowl.
Store the stock: Divide the stock between several containers and label with washi tape. Cool completely, then cover and refrigerate
for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
