NEW JOURNAL

 Hello everyone,

Well, the scrapbook is complete, all done and gone to it's new home, I was able to get into the zone when a bit more information came through  and all done...of course another is coming in the next few days but I have feelings for  and knowledge of the next lot, so should be a bit easier...I hope!.

Today I'm sharing a junk journal and have made the pictures into collages instead of scrolling for an hour..


as always lots of pockets and lace, handmade stuff like ephemera and tags


some pages pretty simple for those who buy them like to add their own stuff.


die cut leaves and such pretty papers..


lace trims and PET  butterfly stickers everywhere.


a vellum envelope with a little treasure inside.


A bird cage memory box die that I not used for a long time, a very long time,
and fabric ruffles , fabric from Stamperia, that was fun, 
ruffled by hand as I can't see the needle hole in my sewing machine.


there she is standing up..


and laying down, definitely not flat..


and the cover, no words, 
that will come when the lady gets it and make her own mind up..
This book is not sewn bound, it is bound with chiffon ribbon and
ties at the spine in a big clump..where I was going to thread beads
but didn't..

So there we go..
Thank you so much for stopping by..

I'll see you soon..

luv CHRISSYxx

What can I say about this Chrissy! Oh my goodness it's stunning and you have so many bits and pieces for putting it all together! The lace, die cut pieces, pockets, etc etc are all done so beautifully and the papers are so elegant with your details...just perfect my friend! I enlarged them all! TFS! HUGS

WOW fabulous journal, love the beautiful papers, embellishments and those pretty fabric ruffles. I have been crocheting and knitting blankets-you should see me trying to thread a needle to sew the ends in -had to make a loop out of floss to thread wool in then pull it through lol.

Wow Chrissy this is jam packed with everything but the kitchen sink! I love all the ruffles and impressed you made them by hand. My machine has a needle threader but I still struggle to catch it lol. I think you can buy a long wire threader but you still have to get it through the eye of the machine needle! I can see you being inundated with orders for these wonderful creations.

Wow, the beauty of this jj aside (and it is so shabby chic!), I'm in awe of your stamina and getting stuff done. DT work, scrapbook, now this DONE. I also admire you for creating other people's scrapbooks. I can't even be motivated to do more of my own, hahaha. XXO
