    Thank you for this video, Kyra! Your approach is incredibly helpful for beginners (speaking for myself) and your attention to detail is really impressive - where you take a second to bring an item closer to the camera so everything is clearly seen as you explain each part of the process. Beautiful designs, easy-to-follow instructions, and great “situational awareness” of your viewer’s visual perspective! Appreciate your approachable, pleasant personality too.👏💖

I have bought several of your kits already and anxiously waiting to get a better printer so that I can start printing and making some of them! They make beautiful gifts, and of course, keep some for myself!! ❤

    Excellent tutorial, Kiera. I'm not a newbie at this, but I always get new tips or tricks when I watch a tutorial, and yours was no exception. You've kept it really simple, AND you kept the mistakes in, showing how to remedy the situations. We all make mistakes it seems, newbies need to know that. Thank you, as well, for the many lovely kits and ephemera you offer at MPP. I use them in a variety of projects. Hope your thumb is better soon. I winced for you every time you used it. 🥴 From Cheryl in AZ.

    Great tutorial, I am new to junk journals. I'm using old calendars, scrap paper, old greeting cards. My dilemma is what type of glue to use without having my pieces buckle.

    • @myporchprints-junkjournalt5340
      @myporchprints-junkjournalt5340  2 місяці тому

      How fun! Fabri-Tac is what we use for glue (link in description box, under our Amazon Affiliate link). It's non-water based so papers don't wrinkle, and it works well for fabric and even metal too. It dries fast, but not too fast. It's a bit pricey, but worth it if you have the spare change!

      Hello! In the description box if you click on the Amazon shop link, it will come up with several group lists, including one at the top called "Junk Journal Supplies". If you click on it and scroll down it should say "see more supplies" at the bottom. This should reveal all the items including the bows.
      You can also find it in the list of junk journal supplies on our blog (also linked in description box), near the bottom of page is a long list which has the satin bows on it.
      Hope this helps!

      Hello! We have some tutorials showing how to cover journal covers with paper. You use two sheets flipped vertically and layered with one another. You can see it here at the 2:40 mark in this video:

    Is it easier to attach the paper covers before or after the signatures are placed in? What is your preference?

    • @myporchprints-junkjournalt5340
      @myporchprints-junkjournalt5340  2 місяці тому +1

      I usually do the base of my covers first (fabric or paper), then bind in the signatures, and then decorate the cover. Since sometimes the binding method effects how I decorate the spine, and sometimes how I decorate the spine dictates how I decorate my cover. If that makes sense? But it really just depends on the journal. Sometimes I switch it up depending on what I am doing. I think for this journal you could do either/or.

    Can it still be called a ‘junk journal’ if there is no ‘junk’ used?

    • @myporchprints-junkjournalt5340
      @myporchprints-junkjournalt5340  2 місяці тому

      It's a generally accepted term. 😉Even though it's not actually "junk" many of our kits are created from scans of old documents, etc.
