  • Here is a little journal I made for a swap on JJJ. It was to be made with a children's book cover and we were to use wires or rings to bind them. I used a lot of vintage kid's books throughout. Enjoy the tour!

      +Pearl Supernault They are really fun to make, and there are no rules (unless you are making one for a swap!).... so just jump right in and try it. You get better as you go, and seeing the videos other crafters make gives you great ideas. Good luck.

    I love this. The Winnie the Pooh is great and I was born in 1961 so it really made me happy to see the library card check out register. Just so nice. All the best Terrie

    Absolutely love this journal. I got several ideas of what to do with some old children's dictionaries and the school strips. I have many old children's books to make a journal. Your video has given me the push to make some. Thank you! Wonderful journal!

    What a gorgeous journal! Love all the bright images you found from childrens books and how you incorporated them to be pockets or pages or tags. It looks so good!

    Absolutely delightful! What a fabulous children's journal! I thoroughly enjoyed the flip and am inspired to make one myself. I love everything about children's books. I have collected many over the years. What I appreciate about you is your willingness to use original papers. I think I have to save everything but I really don't! I'm always burdened with this desire to collect vintage images and then hoard them. What good is that? Who gets to enjoy them if they are stuck in a box or file folder tucked away in a shed somewhere? Thank you for your share. Makes me wish I had participated in the swap.

      +Wildroses I know what you mean. I have a tendency to want to save everything for just the "right" project, but I have gotten better about using what I have. Thanks so much for watching.

    I just had to get my"Diane" junk journal fix tonight. Lol. Hi girl. I somehow missed this when you first put it up. Wow. It is an amazing little book. Very nicely done. You're such a great collage artist and I'm ready to start creating again. I've missed it. Thanks again for your inspiration. Hugs my friend and God bless you

    • @DianeHubertPrettyPinkCottage
      @DianeHubertPrettyPinkCottage  Před 7 lety +1

      Hi, Leigh! I've been creating again, too. At first I could only "play" for a very short time. I began feeling anxious and sad and I just couldn't do it anymore. But that was true of just about anything. Cooking, exercising, even cleaning. I just hated doing anything "normal" because my life is so far from normal! I still feel that way, but I can function for longer periods of time. My creative projects have been smaller and not "pressured" if you know what I mean. I hope that you are doing okay since the loss of your step father. I think of you often. Hugs.

I would like to set up an etsy shop but am a little nervous about it. I am not very computer savvy! Thank you for your comment. I do have lots more kids books pages I could make more of these journals.

      Send private messages
      Go to the channel of the person you want to contact. You can do this by clicking their channel name underneath one of their videos.
      Click the About tab.
      Click Send message.
      Type in your private message and click Send.
      Note: If a channel doesn't have a confirmed name on CZcams, it won't be able to receive private messages and you won't see the "Send message" button on the channel.
