Shabby Roses Traveler’s Notebook with Bible Verses

July 2, 2022

I am sharing one of my new Traveler’s Notebooks that were made this past week. They are constructed of heavy watercolor paper, and inside I machine stitched parchment papers to make a notebook. I added Bible verses printed on parchment, ephemera and lace throughout the pages. I also added two pockets both interior with papers and tags.

I will be making more and listing them in my shop since there were many requests on IG about them and the first sold in my shop already.

I hope you are having a safe and Happy 4th of July!

By The Sea Handmade Journal

February 19, 2022

I am sharing just a few pages (of many) in my “By The Sea” Journal today. The paper/digital kit was created by Ruby and Pearlxo and is called “Seaside Dreams”. While the main base of the journal is from the digital kit, there are many other elements that are not.

I have many coffee stained papers, tags, and ephemera through out as well.

I had a ton of fun creating this during snowy days. For those that know me, I am a lover of water (Great Lakes girl) and my ancestors were fishermen in Scotland. Water is in my blood! This is a chunky journal and will be listed in my Etsy shop.

Sweethearts Travel Journal

January 8, 2022

Happy Saturday!

I am sharing a little Sweetheart Travel Journal I made using various double sided papers, ephemera, washi tapes, old digital photos, and tags. Lots of space for writing as well. If you click on a photo you will get an enlarged image.

I hope you are staying warm wherever you are! Brrrrr!

Tea Stained Vintage Paper Journal

October 14, 2021

Today, I am sharing this Tea Stained Vintage Paper Journal with you. It has lots of open space for writing, but beautiful sepia photos, lace, tags incorporated throughout as well.

I started by tea staining both file folders (the journal cover) and mixed media papers. I love how staining (tea or coffee) can give such a wonderful time worn feel to a project.

I cut the cover (File Folder) larger then the signature of mixed media papers and hand sewed it into the book. Inside the front and back covers I made pockets to tuck tags, ephemera, etc. in.

The pages in the journal were decorated with vintage photos and tags that were printed on double sided matte photo paper. I also added some mini envelopes that were embossed on my Sizzix and a giant tea stained envelope in the middle of the book.

Little bits of various antique laces and mother of pearl buttons were added throughout the journal as well. Reproduction 1897 Sears catalog pages were added throughout.
