Junk Journaling

 Hello there,

Just wanted to share some of my junk journaling:

I have about a half dozen of these little books to journal in, each with a different subject.  I prefer the bullet style because you can barely see the dots but they're enough to keep my artistic style structured.

Here's another set of pages from one of the books entitled, "What I Like".

Journaling is a good outlet for being artistic, but it helps when I am trying to comprehend times when my anxiety is high.

I went back to Swap-bot.com and it has been, for the most part, fabulous.  Here's a crafty swap I completed and just waiting to be partnered up and send it off.

This is the front of the collaged tag, referenced by a video on 49dragonflies.  I was able to use lace in place of fabric.  I stamped down the sewing stitches to give it that look of being sewn.  The tag was accidentally created upside down, which is how those joining had to make it.

Here is the back with a different kind of lace - the base is upside down, as well.  I hope my partner will like it.  I will add some other crafty bits if it's something that I have and is on my partner's profile.  That's the fun part, too - surprising your partner with something fun from the profile page.

Happy Crafting!
