We are now on video number five and I am still in the embellishment stages of creating to make my journal as festive and fluffy as it can be! In this video I show you my two favorite accessories, Junk Bows and Paperclip tassels. As I mention in the video, I have created these tassel clips for all seasons and occasions, they are so fun! I hope you are inspired to make some fun festive bows and tassels for your Junk Journal too!
Image it’s Christmas Eve, the streets are lined with pink and blue ornate homes. The pretty candles and winter green garland fills the front Windows with Christmas Cheer. Among the homes is The Stahlbaum’s house where you can hear ballroom music fill the quiet snowy street. Oh what a magical night it will be! As carriages line up to drop guests off at the Stahlbaum’s home, a man also known as the toy maker arrives. Oh to see what he is carrying in his pack. Could it be a Nutcracker?
Oh my goodness, this is one of my favorite holiday stories, I wanted to create a kit full of whimsy, sparkle and delight to adorn your planner, journals, and all things paper! I hope you love each and every bit of this kit and most of all have FUN!! Tis the season for a bit of magic and creativity!

Can’t you hear it? Autumn is calling!! The days will be getting shorter, the leaves will start to change colors, a cool crisp breeze will be in the air. I can’t wait to wear my favorite outfit of tights and my burgundy corduroy dress while drinking a pumpkin spice latte. Yes this is me, I love all things seasonal. I won’t speak about the weather hear in Texas, it’s still in the 90’s, instead I’m going to continue to dream and listen because Autumn is calling! Who is ready to adorn their planner, journal or memory book with all things red, yellow and orange!? This kit is created around a mixed media whimsical autumnal girl by Rebecca Hoot. Each item is carefully selected and assembled to match a perfect little kit just for you or to send to a dear friend to enjoy! Kits are now available in the shop!
Welcome back to the final video of the Summer Journaling Series! My first thought was to create a video demonstrating how to make journal cards with different themes and then I thought why don’t I just play!? In this video I’m just playing with different ways I love to personalize my journal. I hope you are inspired to create, play and fun in your journal!
Hello and welcome to week 5 in my Summer Journaling series! In this video I show you how I prep journal pages for future journaling. How many of us who paint our journal pages have to wait for the paint to dry? If your like me I am so easily distracted I find it better to add watercolor to pages before I am ready to journal so when I am ready, I have painted pages already. Does that makes sense? In this video I show you what I do. I hope you are inspired to be creative today!!
Welcome back to the Summer Journaling Week 4. In this video I’m talking ephemera and how I like to document using all types of paper collected on trips and throughout daily life to document. I also show a quick way I documented using packaging from a donut bag to document National Donut Day!
Welcome back to my summer journaling series! This week I’m talking about creating a vision by making a bucket list of activities and adding the items to a Bucket O Fun to manifest the things you want to do on your bucket list. This summer my family will be having a staycation which means we will be staying local and finding activities to fill our summer days. I hope you are inspired to make a list and create a bit of fun this summer if your going on a vacation or just staying around the house.
