Junk Journaling

Hi everyone, I thought I would show you some of my junk journaling pages today.

I do collect all sorts of things on our outings, which get added to my mountain of scraps, magazine pages, unused stamped images, gelli prints etc.

I also have a lot of lovely stamps, such as these, that were on an envelope from Elizabeth, containing some napkins in a recent swap, some of you may have already seen them here

I have several junk journal on the go, very useful for clearing my desk!

As soon as I spotted the pear stamp I knew where it was going to go!

On this page there is also a sugar wrapper, a smart price label from some fruit, part of another envelope, a ticket from one of the gardens we have visited, scraps of designer paper, a map, various painty bits, a Crafty Individuals sunflower image and a Hoopoe cut from an old bird book.

Here are scraps, Henry VIII cut from an information leaflet, designer paper cut offs, a bird from a magazine, a label from a scarf I bought at Kew a few years ago, a label from an apple and a biscuit wrapper from our recent visit to France.

 Pretty much the same here, painty scraps, unused stamped image, another garden visit ticket, magazine image, a blue Christmas stamp(just because it was blue) and a chocolate wrapper from a visit to the Lavinia Stamps shop at the beginning of the year.

You see, you really can use anything for collage fodder!

I'll be showing more pages over this month as theses pages are for Bleubeard and Elizabeth's 'Collage Fodder, Food and Drink, or Both' theme at Art Journal Journey. 

Thanks for looking, Chris
