An upcycled board book with pockets...
Layers and layers of color...
Stenciled cards for the pockets...
A painting mounted for a cover...
Water colored washes inside...
A repurposed day planner...
With lots of eye candy on pages ready for writing...
A repurposed commercial journal with a new cover...
And flowers and water color washes added to the pages...
A small 1940s vintage leather photo album with new cover...
And the old black pages replaced with lovely scrap book papers...
Resized book covers to fit pages cut from old pattern papers...
And such fun to stencil the old pattern pages with homemade alcohol inks...
And another 1940s vintage red leatherette photo album with roses added...
And some hand decorated and scrap papers replacing the black photo original pages. I left in the textured tissue/vellum pages that were between the old black pages because they have an awesome snowflakey texture to them.
And, because I had so much fun with the alcohol ink stenciling, I made two more journals using old ledger pages which I stenciled again. Now I have to make covers for them. I will show you those in a few days. Do you love journals as much as I do?

You've really been busy! Maybe you could sell those at the place you taught the class last year?
Lovely Journal pages!

Oh my! These journals are fabulous! You are a journal making machine! I need to do some research on alcohol inks. I have no idea what those are, yet! What a wonderfully productive time you have had. thank you for sharing the photographs!

Love your journal pages! Everyone seems to be so quiet these days...either that or I'm out of the loop. Thank you for sharing.
I wish I could come to your market! Love your work!
Beautiful post!
Wonderful pages, I especially love the one with the kitty.
Wow, love your inspiration and resourceful here! I say, make a few more then take them to the Farmer's market. You will make some very happy recipients and some $$$ to buy more art supplies :) Simply magical!
Yes I love journals as much as you do! and I love what you are doing. I'm reading this on Saturday so I saw the next post too. Great work! I always look for something profound to write and usually settle for the grocery list - LOL! thanks for sharing with us. Lori de Froup
