I made a journal from the same size envelope and I like that it gives you scope to add larger pieces of paper too. I really liked when you added the sewing pattern paper to mute the front. I’ll have to beg some of that from my sewing friends. Lovely tutorial making a great journal.
I’d love to know where or what patterns you get the plain paper without lines at. Every single pattern I have has the pattern printed on it.
You sure simplified that process with items anyone may have in their home, very very nice.
I absolutely love the vintage farm vibe, and the cover is SO adorable! Inspiring!
absolutely adorable 💌 can see myself using this type as a travel journal to document a vacation! putting together the maps, little ephemera like wrappers and tickets inside the envelopes 🌷 amazing johanna as always 💗
Ahh that would be perfect for a travel journal! You could always switch out the book pages for map paper, and add some travel themed scraps on the cover too 🥰 thank you for watching! 💌
@@JohannaClough YES, THANKYOU
So cute! I love the cover technique so much. The pockets provide so much room for treasures, etc. Great job!❤️
Thank you Robyn! It did turn out quite cute 🥰♥️
That is such a brilliant idea putting the tissue paper over the collaged cover, never thought of doing that before but defs going to use that in my journalling 🤩
It’s really fun! I think i’ll try it more crinkled next time!
Thank you for sharing, what a creative and beautiful journal! I love so much how approachable and straightforward your teaching style is, and so encouraging that even total beginners can make their own beautiful custom journals with materials they already have at home. I have SO many envelopes, this idea is perfect!
Thank you so much Valerie! 😊 i’m so glad you enjoyed it! ♥️
Love the patchwork cover effect! It’s really eye catching!
Thank you for advice regarding muting colour. I love the idea of adding sewing pattern paper to tone down and age papers. Thanks.
Cannot believe I missed this tutorial! But glad I came back to it because I definitely want to create this! The cover is so perfect I cannot wait ♡
That is so cute and so easy and quick. Thankyou for sharing. You explain so easily. Tomorrow I will start my first junk journal, so I will try to remember to take pics along the way.
This is wonderful! I really want to try making it because I love the "vintage quilt" look of the cover. Thanks for sharing!
Little squares would be cute too! ♥️
@@JohannaClough And I was thinking, using the pinking shears or speciality edge scissors on some of those pieces of paper would make it look even more like a quilt cover...Am definitely going to try this; have a six year old granddaughter who thought my first journal effort for her didn't have "enough pages"...(meaning, enough big clear pages for her to draw/colour on). She wanted MORE PAPER. Lol.
I love the simplicity of how it was made.Tnx for the helpful technique 😊🧸💜🐰
Love this. Planning to use this idea for my first try at book binding. Looks fun and creative.
It’s a lovely Journal. Quick, too. Will make one as well when I get some envelopes📨📧💌
I really like your idea of using pattern paper over your collage pretty paper it does give it a bit of an antique look and adds nice texture. Thank you for sharing that technique very cleaver.
I am definitely going have a go at finally attempting a journal, you are a great teacher TFS XXXXX
I love this way to use a sewing pattern to make bright colors look more vintage. It has almost an encaustic look to it. Going to try this for sure. Thanks for the inspiration.
Yes definitely an encaustic look! Really cool 🥰
I use this example every time I bind a journal…thank you for sharing this simple method!💕
Thanks for all the wonderful ideas!🍁🍂
I love how you did your cover. Fantastic technique❤
What I like about this****
EVERYTHING!💞✌🏻
What a great idea,thank you Johanna!!💖 Greetings from Holland 🇳🇱Nathalie.
I absolutely love how beautifully this turned out and i love how you said the binding is easy because the only reason i havent made my journal yet is im scared im gonna ruin it ( even though ive been journaling for years)
I love everything about this video I'm so glad I've found it! The journal is very nice, your voice is very pleasant, your explanations are great - not too much, not too little. There is no rushing nor speeding yet everything flows and everything is interesting - that is the balance hard to achieve. On top of that you didn't ruin the whole thing like so many others with a music, so the video is relaxing and enjoyable! Well done! Now I'm curious to see how you filled the journal... I hope to find that. I feel inspired, thank you x x x
Thank you for sharing the making of this journal. I look forward to making some in the near future ❤❤❤
This is just great!! Such a wonderful idea. I’m definitely going to try this. Can hardly wait to see how you fill your journal! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely ideas!!
Love this…. Going to use this as my inspiration for a traveler’s journal for an upcoming trip! Perfect! Thank you!
That will be so cute! Have fun! 🗺♥️
I love this technique that you showed step by step so clearly. Thank you I will definitely be giving this a try and also am going to try doing something similar with fabric! Love your tutorials. ❤
This is such a beautiful journal!!! ⚘ I love the collaged cover so much.
Magical…As always, doable with a sprinkling of whimsy and nostalgia. Many thanks ⭐️
🌟 ⭐️ thank you ⭐️🌟
With your video you gave me a good idea. I made such a cover several times , but everytime the cover cracked and the parts of scraps were getting loose, even though I put glue over the cover when I was ready with my paper parts. But putting that tissue paper over the cover gifs the scraps of paper no chance to get loose. Thanks a lot for this idea.
What a lovely journal. You make it look so easy too!
I'm going to make one of these. I love how it's not complicated and uses things we probably already have. Thanks for the great ideas.
That was brilliant - thank you so much for sharing this technique. Now I can't wait to start gathering envelopes :)
This is terrific --love love love the whole thing--what a great project 🤗
So beautiful and easy to put together.
Love the creative cover idea! Great tutorial, and looking forward to a sequel 🤗
So clever and creative. Thank you.
I'm definitely trying to recreate something like it. It's very easy and gorgeous 😍.
This is so cool and beautiful artwork dear friend. I love it ❤
Thank you ♥️

So cute! I can see doing this kind of cover but using the paper scraps in a quilt pattern. Or even using fabric scraps!
Thank you for sharing, so beautiful! I have learned so much from watching your videos. Your work is always so inspirational and beautiful💕 I would love to see an updated walk thru of your daughters first year baby album. I loved the series so much and love all three of their albums❤️
I watch your channel a lot. You, amity bloom and Treasure books are my favorites. I’ve gotten hundred of hours of enjoyment from you channel so thank you for that. I wanted to ask - I’ve bought half dozen of your digitals. I’d like to see more journaling videos with you using your digitals. I love the ideas.
Thank you so much 🥰♥️♥️ i use my digitals a lot in most of my journaling process videos! I have a playlist as well so you can find them easily 😘♥️
