  • To create this journal, I used as much authentic vintage or antique French paper, textiles, button, etc.  I truly hope you enjoy your walk-through of my labor of love. This was very fun to create, and even more fun to collect all of the French items and ephemera that it contains. Enjoy!
    I used Kraft-Tex to make the cover: www.ctpub.com/kraft-tex-basic...

    What a gorgeous journal, Andrea! I do NOT think this is a "bland" journal at all It is full of such luscious papers. I, for one, am so glad you did not add any digitals or ruin the antique vibe of this journal with other papers besides the ones you've used. I would happily add this journal to my personal collection because of all your amazing work. It's a treasure trove of history and lovely paper and lace.

    Love the colors I'm seeing...and just look at those beautiful bead dangles...nice!! Lace on page edges always makes me smile. Lace on pages and lace pockets are visual joy! I love the look and sound of bead dangles on a page. No way could I bring myself to write in this journal...it would just sit and exist, Of interesting note: Another journal maker calls dangle lace and dangle beads "drippings." Her vocabulary always brings a smile. Well done!

      Thank you so much! I learned the making of the bead dangles from a friend Sheila Gingrich and her CZcams is Bohodaydreams! If you’re on Facebook, she has an incredible group and she provides so many tutorials!

    I love what you have done Andrea ..... so special!!! What a clever way to fix the problem with the short lengths of string to add the dangles !!! Love it!!! As you said... making a journal that is very mono-chromatic is a challenge.... and adding little points of interest with little 'dabs' of colour helps brighten it up just enough without taking away the concept of the journal !! I really enjoyed seeing your lovely french journal ! !

    Beautiful. I couldn’t quite catch the name of the materials you used for the flexible journals and I probably overlooked it, but could you share the name of it and the link please, I think it was craft x or something like that.
