Crafting Room Fun A New Project A Junk Journal For A Swap

Hello.  It's a bit rainy here today so I am getting to spend some much needed time in my crafting space. 

I am creating a Junk Journal for a SWAP with Creative Christian Crafters group.  It is a group on Facebook. 

The challenge was to create anything from 3 12x12 pieces of paper.  And you must use all the paper.  

And so 

Junk Journal 

Came to mind  

Here's the beginning

I am using more than 3 pieces of paper.   Here is a collage of a few of the papers.  I included a page from a calendar and a page from a quilting magazine.

This page will be the center spread.  I'll include Bible verses in the embellishments I add. 

It was a challenge cutting the 12x12 paper to 8 1/2 x 11' for a Junk Journal size because of the words printed on the paper.  I wanted to use them which is why I chose this paper pad. 

The floral calendar pages adds some more color.  With it I can include Yellow, Purple and maybe some Green to brighten up the Gray color pallet.

I'll add pockets and tuck spots for Journaling Cards.  And other embellishments. 

This paper wasn't from the pad of paper but the colors matched and I wanted to use the 'Where my heart is' I'll include Matthew 6:21 on the page some how.  I haven't decided yet how. 

Any suggestions?  

Thanks for stopping in.  

Back to cutting and gluing!
