I really like the children's theme. I think I'd use it as a "fun with nana book". Journaling outings with the littles and tracing thier handprints and putting pictures in it. Keep it at Nana's house, and they could look through it with Nana and talk about memories. Give it to them at graduation or thier wedding. Ooo...lots of ideas! 💗 TFS🤗
Absolutely brilliant idea. I'm a Nana and would love to do this to.
What a great idea
Such a great idea…I am nota granny yet but love to make such a book in the future. Thank’s for this beautiful idea🥰
Such a lovely journal!
I love the pictures in many children's books, but have felt stuck how to use them. This project of yours "unlocked" my brain 😃
And I also really enjoyed the handmade stamps and stencils! I will definitely make some myself!
Thanks alot for sharing your ideas 🤗🦋🌻🕊️
Thanks Lena! I’m happy this was helpful! ☺️❤️
Hi Barbara. So cheery and bright. Absolutely adorable. Can't wait to see the finale! TFS. 😘❤
This is going to be so cute! So many children's books come with glossy pages and they just don't do as well. I was so hoping you would draw branches between those red dots you didn't like so it would appear as a tree reaching into the page, but you couldn't hear me through the computer! Can't wait to see the rest. Right now I am building my October journal (a week late but...) with mostly your printables. I'm having such fun!
Thanks Robin! So sorry I didn’t hear you! Have fun with your October journal! 😃❤️
Oh this cracks me up!!😂 I thought I was the only one talking with her as she shares!! I tried to tell her I thought she should try something in a different place, but she couldn’t hear me either!! She makes it all work out well in the end! I’m so glad she talks and tells us how she works her way through things because I learn so much!
@@priscillafriesen148 I guess we all do it at some point!
This just proves you can make a junk journal out of anything. This is so cute! Another thing I found interesting is the pages you put your ephemera on. You can use anything and it’s what you do with the pages that make your journal stunning, or cute, or elegant, or silly. It all depends on where you want to go. I love that there’s no seriously wrong things…. Like, oh no! I’ve ruined my whole journal by doing that one thing! Nope, you don’t like some stars? Cover them. I am really enjoying this journal (oh heck. I love everything you show us)! Lol. Thank you♥️🧚🏻♥️🧚🏻♥️
Thanks so much Angela! It’s true, you can make a junk journal out of anything! 😃❤️
So adorable! I never think to use my envelope flap as a tuck spot! I love how you give ideas to fit everyone! Can’t wait to see the finished project! That bird pocket…too cute! Everything just went perfectly! 🥰
Oh my goodness, this is becoming such a fabulous journal! I love the additions you stamped and stenciled. The baby foxes just made me go, “Awwww!” I love the way you did this in stages. The pages, then the stamping/stenciling, and then the ephemera. As always, I love, love, love this! Can’t wait till your next video!
Thanks so much Dawn! ❤️☺️
Love the stenciling and the children's book images! Look forward to seeing the next video! Thank you.
Such a fun video. This would be a great journal for my granddaughter (she is only one year old but I am a new grandma and thinking ahead). I love children’s books. Thanks for all your wonderful ideas.
I’ve never seen anyone use only images from children’s books...it looks so much better than I thought it would. 👍 I’m looking forward to seeing how you make your cover. 🥰❤️
This is going to be the cutest journal. Love the children’s theme. My favorite stencil is the blue flower on the music page and the fairies. Can’t wait to see what else you do. TFS Barbara! ❤️
Guten Morgen, liebe Barbara! Dich dabei zu beobachten, wie Du dieses Journal ins Leben rufst, macht mir solche Freude! Es ist, als ob man ein Kind beim Wachsen zusieht. 😉 Ich liebe dieses „Kind“! 😍 Bin gespannt, wie es sich weiter entwickelt. Aber ich bin ganz sicher, dass es ein prachtvoller „Mensch“ werden wird! Bei der „Mutter“! 😄 Freu mich auf Deinen nächsten Bericht. Herzliche Grüße nach Wien! Rita
Danke für dein herzliches Kommentar, liebe Rita! Ich muss so schmunzeln, du hast das so süß formuliert! ☺️❤️
@@49dragonflies 🥰😘
Love that you are using children's book to make a journal. I been watching several artist that make journals. But none have taken children's book to make journals other then the Little Golden Books from the USA. I have do many old children's books because I loved the illustrations. Now I going to to take your ideas and make a journal.
Thanks Linda! I’m happy this is helpful! 😃❤️
Such a good idea to make prints with such colors that matched the childrens book pictures, it looks awesome Barbara!
I love the idea from your follower to make it as a granny book…..I am not a granny yet but I love everything about children books …always did because I was a kindergarten teacher for 37 years. Yesterday I bought such a children fairytale book for just 1 euro in a thriftshop yeeeh so I am certainly gonna use this idea for a future granny book.
Thank’s for inspiring again, Touareg the best🥰
Grrr that automatic filler again🤪 I meant to say you…are…the…best!🥰
Thank you Tina! ❤️
I have a bin full of full page calendar and other pages, now I know what to do with all of them! And I love the tip of joining them with paper
Oh Barbara I am SO glad to see this!! I have children’s books I want to integrate into my journals and I am excited seeing this come together so well!! Thank you for sharing with us!! 😊
Really cute Barbara! I love the blend of the children's books against the more adult pages. It makes me feel nostalgic 🙂
Who would have thought you’d could make such a lovely journal out of children’s books. It’s awesome. Xx
These pages are so adorable with the children’s book ephemera, pockets and tucks! I was inspired to make a similar journal for one of my daughter-in-laws as she loves the children’s illustrations just as I do! Thanks for sharing!
Now I am ready to use my children’s books instead of hoarding them! Thanks for the pictures. 😻
I love the colours here! This could be a jolly and cheerful journal💙🌸. The pictures are truly fetching! You put all the ephemera in such a colour oriented manner! I am enjoying this alot!
This will be a very colorful journal I like the idea of children book pages thank you for sharing love love thank you for sharing sharing
Theola
Wow! I love this so far. I’m very new to JJ’s and you describe each step so thoroughly. Thank you. I’ve got a gazillion children’s books obtained from yard sales and thrift stores. Barbara, you’ve inspire me so much. Your homemade stamps are so cool. I enjoy making those too 🤩
Thanks so much! ❤️
Love this journal, Barbara. That robin is so stinking cute!
Morning Barbara, Love, love how this little journal is coming together. I always struggle with children's books, never knowing where to put what. 🙃🙃 BUT.......... watching you and this super cute little beauty, I have soooo many ideas, THANK YOU dear friend, you are an inspiration and a journaling guru!!!!. Can't wait for your videos, only wish you could put one up EVERY DAY!!!!!!!😁😁😉 (I am just being greedy, I know) Anyway, I will have my usual snack with you on Sunday, soooo until then, have a wonderful Friday, be safe and take care of yourself. Blesssings as always Diana.😃😃😺😺
Aaaw thanks Diana! Always love your sweet feedback! I wish I could put a video out every day….but wait, December is coming 😃
@@49dragonflies Can't wait!!! Just love watching anything and everything you upload. You are sooooo inspiring and have taught me to think outside my box. Thank you again, Barbara for all you do, I know there is a tremendous amount of work that must go into even one of your videos, so we all do appreciate it, but, as for me, I am like a child in a sweetie shop, always wanting more.
They're really cute. Thanks for sharing this with us. Love them.
So vibrant x my granddaughter would love it xxxx
This is so much fun, Barbara! I have always loved children's books! The pictures are always so wonderful in them!! Can't wait to see the rest of the journal!!
It’s starting to look great, looking forward to seeing what magic you come up with next!
I love your homemade stamps. The stamps really tie the pages with the pockets and images. Really wonderful.
Such an ADORABLE journal...all the animals are so cute...LOVE the playful squirrels!!
💕🤗🐿
I'd like to see the ephemera round 2 as well!
So adorable. A gorgeous journal 😍🤗😍 did you see that you put the envelope with the princess kissing a frog on a book page with a princess kissing a frog 👌😀👌 big hug
Thanks sweetie! I did not notice that! 😃❤️
I love this idea so much! So amazingly beautiful. It was satisfying just watching you finding the perfect spot to put the ephemera. It looks so much easier having them all done prior and just add to the journal later. I need to try this. 😍
Thanks! Please do and have fun! 😃❤️
Liebe Barbara, was für eine wunderbare Idee, diese herrlichen Illustrationen auf diese Art und Weise ins Junk Journal einziehen zu lassen ♥️ Ich liebe es ♥️ Viele herzensliebe Grüße Susanne ♥️
Herzlichen Dank liebe Susanne! Es macht so viel Spaß! 😃❤️
It’s so precious…the illustrations are beautiful …love this video series 💕

Hi, I'm still Debbi, just finally got around to putting my account name right 😄. I love the feel and weight of kids book pages, so tactile. That robin and the foxes are adorable 😍. Oh I have that fairy stencil, I bought it on ebay. Cute diy stamps 😍 you can also die cut them from fun foam. This would make an awesome 'treasure book' for a child! So cute 😍. Tfs and have a great weekend 💖💖
Thanks Debbi, it’s not just for kids 😉❤️
Lol no it's not, I was just thinking about making one for my Granddaughter for when she's a little older 💖

Holy Cow!!!! These are just A-Dur-Able!!!!! I can watch you design all day!!!!
I really love these ideas!
Too cute!
Hi Barbara 😊 Try using the fat side of a sponge brush when you paint stencils. I work at a place called Board & Brush here in the states, people make wooden projects and paint on them using stencils. We have our customers use sponge brushes, dip in the paint, press out the excess paint & dab with 2 fingers on of the sponge. I find this works best when stenciling with paint 💗
Thanks so much for your tip! 👍🏻😃❤️
Very fun and creative! Can't wait to see the next steps.💖
Ag this is so cute and informative Barbara. Thank you so much for sharing this process and I am definitely copy your project.
Thanks Marina! Have fun! 😃❤️
Too cute!❤️
I love everything about this journal. The children’s images, the bright colors, the stamps and stenciling. So Amy good ideas. ❤️
Can’t wait to see more! Beautiful images, xo
Hi Barbara, thanks for the great ideas.
Thanks for these great videos, I am find this extremely helpful and inspirational.
Thanks so much Vicky! ❤️😃
I have children's books that are falling apart. I've never made a junk journal before but I think I would enjoy trying it. Thanks for sharing.
I hope you give it a try! 😊
Awesomeness, great ideas it’s looking great
How cool! And, fun!
Thank you!
Just adorable !
I really like your ideas, thank you.
So adorable!!!!
I am in real love with your journal sweetie 😍. You know my love for all that is childish, and here, everything is harmonious, fresh and joyful. I love It son much ❤
Thank you sweetie! So happy you love it! ❤️
Love the images!
*** Just a Suggestion ***
For those who don't have any stamps nor stencils - you can definitely try POTATO STAMPING 🥔 (Or any other hard root vegetable, for that matter... 🥕) Yes, just like we did in kindergarten. It works amazingly beautiful (as long as you remember to dry the potato extremely well before applying color/ink
Yes, great, thanks for sharing, my friend! ❤️
So cute! I love it!
This is sooooo cute 🥰
Just gorgeous 💫 I am so inspired to begin
Thanks! Have fun! 😃❤️
I LOVE this! Thanks 😍
I LOVE your videos! What is your favorite type of book binding tape to connect the pages? I am not sure if you listed it above. Thank you so much!
Thanks so much! I don’t use book binding tape. I use either book cloth or tyvec.
@@49dragonflies perfect! I’ll look for either of those! 😘
Could you please guide me to part two you mentioned please. I'm new to this, and really enjoyed this video. Thank you so much.
Hello Denise, I'm happy you enjoyed this! Here is part 2: ua-cam.com/video/BjlS43u3_0c/v-deo.html
@@49dragonflies thank you so much. Wonderful.
This is so cute!
I’m not sure what you do with these, are they for adding things to them or just looking at the pages? They are very creative!
You can add whatever you want, writing, photos, keepsakes….
Were some of the stamps/stencils done w/ ink?The 1's you done off camera looked like ink,just curious! Love it
No, I used acrylics for all of them.
Where do you find your wonderful books? Sandy ❤️
If you check the first video in this series (linked in the description box) you will find out 😃

全てに活かせる想いです。
本当にありがとうございます❗
Sorry!!! for you messenge i can not english🙇🙇🙇💦😢
Barbara are you going to use this journal personally? Or do you sell and/or gift some of the journals you make?
I do sell some of them, but I‘m not ready to let go of this one yet! 😬
I was wondering why you mostly put the ephemera where you already have designs painted? Is this a design trick we need to know about? Also, I noticed that you have very little writing spots, so is this mostly just to look at?
I have one that was mostly just for looking at with a few words written here and there with my thoughts.
I think the painting enhances the ephemera. Also, there will be more writing space. Just keep watching ☺️
