I Love It All

I'm not much of a rebel, but I am all about making the most of what you have on hand. I love coming up with new ways to use product, so today I'm going to share with you a few ways to get more design options from your journal cards.

You can find 40+ designs in the shop, or you can use goodies from your stash. The techniques are the same and the ideas can be twisted into a multitude of new designs.

GRAB YOUR SUPPLIES

Today, I'll be using these two sets: Count Your Blessings + Autumn Leaves.
Your favorite adhesive - I use an Elmer's glue stick because it allows me to move my image around until I find just the right spot before it dries completely
A Glassine Bag
Manila Shipping Tag
Washi Tape
Cardstock + Kraft Paper

DESIGNING WITH JOURNAL CARDS

For the page divider in my Gratitude Journal, I added a few strips of washi tape as a base layer and then popped the pumpkin image from this set on top.

After printing and trimming the cards onto white cardstock, I fussy cut around the pumpkin image to create my very own die cut. It's just a fun way to add your own style + personality to your journals and mini books.

One of my favorite techniques is to add hidden journaling to my list journals and mini books. This list prompt had me reflecting upon my brother-in-law who had passed away recently.

Journaling on the shipping tag and tucking it inside the glassine bag offered me a way to keep my reflections private. By adding a fussy cut leaf from this set, which I printed on kraft paper, it added another layer of privacy.

Here's another time I cut around a journal card and used it in a journal. My page already had a leaf theme going, so why not continue with that, right?
