Hi lovely people - just thought I would come along and share my truly junky journal. The pages have been formed using painted over magazine pages, and then I have combined Readers Digest images with some other vintage images from books to form the basis of my journal. I hope you like it, thanks for watching, and I would love it if you could subscribe to my channel and give this video a thumbs up. Thank you, Tinax
oh forgot to say, the blue background papers that I have used are now available in my Etsy, they are called Dawn Mist if you wanted to check them out. X

Loving the paper ruffles and lace/book page corner. Lots of inspiration today. Do not be ashamed of your desk. Whenever I clear a space to work in the cat plonks himself down right there. I often end up crafting on my lap because there is no room on my desk. xx .

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

Oh, I am so pleased I’m not the only one who has such a messy desk! Yes, on occasion I have worked on the floor, because my desk is sooooooo messy! X

Thank you Tina for this very enjoyable video. I just love the vintage images you did use in this truly junky journal. They are very nostalgic. With naming the pale grey- blue background papers Dawn Mist you hit the nail on his head. Beautiful kit. I don't think people will be horrified looking at your desk. They will be curious like me. So, please, grant us a look at your desk. And bear in mind that nobody can be creative at a tidy desk. A tidy desk refrains one's creativity.

Thank you Debby, I enjoyed working on this journaling. My desk.........I might give you all a peak soon, but I would have to issue a warning ⚠️ as to SHOCKING CONTENT, WHICH SOME PEOPLE MIGHT FIND DISTURBING! Lol. Seriously, I might, but I have to say I haven’t ever seen anyone show their craft space because it’s such a tip, it’s normally because it’s just been cleared......... but yes, I definitely find it helps inspire me having stuff everywhere x

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

Oh Tala, I am so glad that you said that, as I am always saying that about the painted magazine pages, but I hadn’t ever heard anyone else say it, so I wasn’t sure if I was in the minority! Yes, they feel amazing don’t they? X

I’m so happy to see this video. I recently started making junk journals and that are very eclectic., like my home. Nothing matches but it all seems to go together in a strange way. I was feeling like I was doing it incorrectly because there is no theme. You made my day! Thank you.

@sorsofia 4 года назад

Lovely 😍 I think your commentaries have improved a lot. I noticed you don't say kind of half so much. 😉 And I think you should definilty show us your desk, would make us all feel closer to you 😁 I don't know a crafter worth their salt who doesn't work amidst chaos. That's our art to bring order out of all that mess. 🤣

Thank you so much Fiona, that is so kind of you, I really appreciate it. Yes, I will show my desk soon........but you will need to be prepared for a shock! It’s terrible! Lol x

@dawnbish9822 4 года назад

Loved this video. I’m always looking for vids on how people create their pages. A lot of videos deal with making the journal but not necessarily how to use it. Thanks for sharing and I wouldn’t mind mom videos like this. Thank you?

Thank you Dawn, so pleased you enjoyed it, I will make a note for a few more like this, there is another video for this journal 😊 in the meantime x

When you say you paint magazine pages, do you mean ‘glossy’ magazine pages? Also, when you refer to emulsion paint, are your speaking about ’gesso’ (which is quite expensive) or inexpensive white acrylic paint? Thanks! Marjorie

@jennycoops7030 4 года назад

Hey, Marjory, emulsion is another word for acrylic.☺

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

Hi Marj, yes regular glossyish magazine pages (they were actually from a craft magazine). The regular emulsion that I used was just household paint, like you use for painting your walls inside your house 🏠 x

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

Oh thank you. The images are literally from a Readers Digest book, I think lots of them have similar illustrations, they are really pretty and colourful aren’t they? X

@leighbanuelos 4 года назад

Shabbydabbydoodah Thank you. I think this must be from old readers digest and not the current ones, I’ll look on eBay! thank you again love your videos😊

@neorachana5604 4 года назад

This is what I thought of when I heard the term junk journal. These are new to me and I had noticed how much of the pages are covered. It seems to leave little space for writing. Then you commented something to the effect of needing to work on all the pages. Am I missing something? How are these types of journals meant to be used? Btw, this is not just you, but several people I watch.

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

Hi thank you for your comment. I understand where you are coming from. Basically anything goes really, if you wanted one with lots more journaling space, then just decorate it less. However, they contain lots of pullout pieces, tags etc which are for journaling on x

@sherryhearington9027 4 года назад

Do you use wet baby wipes or dry ones when you are pressing down glued objects & wiping excess glue?

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

They are dry wet wipes. I mean wet wipes that I’ve let dry out X

@susiescraftroomandstudio 4 года назад

Tina, did you stretch your paper before you painted it? Did you Gesso it before you painted it? Did I understand you to say that used regular acrylic paint?

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

No, I just used the pages as they were, I didn’t prep them with anything either, and I used regular household paint, like you use to paint your inside walls. I am hoping to do a video soon following the complete process x

@llhhcoco10 4 года назад

The camera could be re positioned differently so the audience could see the complete picture. Most of your work is done at the lower part of the screen which is cut off due to the camera position.

@shabbydabbydoodah 4 года назад

Sorry about that, it is tricky sometimes x
