Looks great, I don’t think I would be able to use the cut outs like you do, but wow! Great job .Thank you xx😁🌺
Thank you for sharing. My very favorite material to use is trash. I make all of my journals from trash and junk mail as well as my monthly planner. I seldom buy anything other than glue and pens. When I do buy materials, it’s from charity shops. My sisters are artistic and know to save all their trash for me so I get interesting materials from them too. I really enjoyed watching your process.

I love what you've made today, Nina. I'm kicking myself for throwing such a lot of brochures and catalogues away - though I still have some left. As you may imagine, I'm off now to have a good rummage. Such an interesting video. Thank you!

What a great collage page! I love free images, I find a lot of source material in informational tourists guides in highway rest areas and hotel lobbies. I love harvesting them, now I need to actually start gluing them down! Thanks for the flip through, too.

Oh they are so colourful, I love garden brochures I enjoy using them too. My gluebook is made from a magazine where I've folded each page in half lengthways and then I glue the images onto the pages... I have removed some pages as well so it wont get too bulky ha ha 😉🤣🤣❤️💙💛🧡💚 I love your tags too from the cover... I think it needs some gnomes or fairies in amongst the colourful trees 😁😁🌼🌳🧚♂️🧚🧚♀️

Wow, really loving your pages and all the pages in your book. All of them are great inspiration. For some reason in the area I live we don't get good trash mail, it's very boring and usually about funerals! Our local Town Hall used to produce a really lovely book every year, but they've stopped doing them too. Even when you go online and ask for a brochure they don't send them out anymore, it's all shop online. I am going to have to make a concerted effort to track some fodder down. Tfs xo

Hi Nina, I just discovered your channel and I'm loving your ideas, very inspirational. As I'm new to journalling, I was wondering how you deal with the problem of type from the back showing through your pictures? I find with thinner paper images, unless I put the image on a dark background, the print from the reverse of the page shows through. Do you ever have this problem?
Your journal is very pretty. Thanks for reminding me that I have a couple of Art Auction catalogs that I scooped up for just this kind of project.
