Such a cute cover... inside and out. I like the fabrics you chose and the tag is going to look great. I too like the stitching. San't wait to see Part 2. Thank you for sharing.
Your journal is gorgeous! I love the patterns of your pages and the cover fabulous. I make journals every year, but don't seem to put a dent in what I have saved. Live repurposing things, too! Got lots of new ideas from you. Excited to see you put it all together. TFS. 💌🙏
Oh what a beautiful cover! You are so generous to take the time to make kits to sell! Wishing you a wonderful time working on your journal 🥰
Thank you, Lonna - I really appreciate that. ❤️ I hope you’ll create along with me, too! 😊
Hi Cat, actually my December Days is all ready for journaling and adding pictures this year. But I plan to watch along and use any ideas you have for extra decorations!
That’s awesome! Happy creating, my friend. 😊
I absolutely loved this tutorial!! It's just what I needed so I could learn how to reuse the Amazon packaging! Thank you so much 🥰
Thanks, Stacy - I’m so glad you found it helpful. I’m hoping to get Part 2 out soon… 😊
My mother used to love making junk journals so I am excited to try my hand at one, too. Can't wait to get the kit and play along. I'm going to dig through her things, too, so I can include her in my journal. Christmas was her favorite time of year. ❤️
How wonderful, Laura! I hope you have have fun creating your journal, and filling it with memories of your mom. What a beautiful way to honor her! 😊🎄❤️
Laura, this is a lovely way for you and your Mum to ‘reconnect’. The journal making will no doubt bring back sweet memories. I hope it turns out beautifully. 😊
@Linda Marshall thank you! ❤️
That's so lovely !
Hello Cat,
Wonderful idea. I look forward to watching you create in your Christmas Journal.
Thanks so much, Laura! 😊
It will be a wonderful journey. 🎉
Thanks for watching! 😊
So glad to see you delve into a Christmas Junk Journal. Looking forward to all the steps along the way!
This as a great video! Thank you for the way that you present. It is a pleasure to watch your video. I love how you don’t talk all through the video and when you do talk it’s either to explain what you’re doing or to share your enthusiasm and it is just a great balance. And I love how you speed up some areas that are just gluing or something like that does that doesn’t need any explanation. I started junk journaling about three months ago so I’ve done a few by now but this video was awesome and I’m so glad that it popped up on my feed.
Hi Theresa! I’m so glad you enjoyed this video and I appreciate your watching and taking the time to leave such nice comments. Happy creating! 😊
Love ticking stripes!!! So Christmasy!!
Thanks for watching, Johanne! Yes, I absolutely agree!! 😊
really excited this is going to be fun
Thanks, Cathy - I’m so happy to hear that! 😊
I'm super excited about this series. Unfortunately, I have too much going on to play along, but I'll be watching every episode. I love the cover. Everything goes together so well.
Thanks so much, Shelly - I’m so glad you’re excited to watch. Hopefully you’ll have an opportunity to play a bit, just putting together some little embellishments, along and along, that you’ll have on-the-ready, when you do have time to make a journal. 😊
I got one of the journal kits and I can’t wait to play along with you!!
Yes, and thank you so much, Ruth! I hope you have a wonderful time creating along with me! 😊🎄❤️
I’m anxious to hear what next year’s monthly project. Will be!
Thanks, Janet. Won’t be long now - this year has really flown by! 😊
Super cute. Looking forward to seeing it complete. Sorry I missed out on the kits.
Thanks, Sharon. I’m sorry you missed the kit, but I hope you’ll still gather up some stuff and play along with me. 😊
Thank you for sharing
My pleasure, Jacqueline. Thank you for watching! 😊
I am finally getting around to starting this Christmas journal. Hopefully I still have enough goodies leftover
Yayy! I’m still playing in mine, too! 😊🎄❤️
Eeek I’m so excited! On minute two and can’t wait to watch! 💚❤️🎄🌟
Lol, thanks, Allison! I’m glad you’re excited about it. I am, too! 😁
I’ve never made a junk journal, I hope to try to soon maybe not for Christmas but in the new year. This is just me , I’m glad to see it’s not vintage . I just don’t care for a lot of vintage. Don’t judge me lol . 😊 I subscribed to your channel.
Hi Bertha, and welcome to my channel! I think you will enjoy making a junk journal - it’s really a lot of fun. Yes, I understand about vintage and wouldn’t judge you for not being a big fan, lol. I mostly create things using lots of color, and I do make some vintage stuff (but I usually add color to those as well 🤭). I very much appreciate your watching, commenting, and subscribing! 😊😊😊
Wow Cat your journal looks so gorgeous! Those fabrics are such a beautiful combo. The messy stitching is a really nice touch as well. I am trying to make a simple, first timer junk journal and it totally looks like that “nailed it!” show where the end product looks nothing like how it was supposed to and is a complete mess lol! 😂
Thanks so much, Amy. 😊 Awww, stick with it, even if it’s not how you envisioned it. Hopefully, any mistakes can be hidden with lots of Christmassy goodness! I’m rooting for ya! 😃
Love this time of year. This is going to be fun
Thanks, Eva. I do, too, and yes, we will have so much fun! 😃
Awesome! I been collecting and going to start my first journal
Thanks, Brenda. That’s awesome - you’re gonna have so much fun! 😃

Thank you, Cat, for your inspiration and also the kits for making a Christmas journal! Love that red ticking stripe material! You know, you can never have too much in the way of Christmas embellishments, tucks, pockets, tags, fabric flips, ruffles and so on! I've saved a couple of those Amazon envelopes lately, and have scrapbook and wrapping papers plus other saved items. Looking forward to playing along! TFS!
My pleasure, Lynnea, and thank you so much for your support!! Yes, I think we all have items we’ve set aside to use and now we should let the fun begin! 😃 I’m so glad you’re excited to create along with me on this Christmas junk journal journey! 😊🎄❤️

Great start, Cat!! I've been wanting to do a Christmas card journal. I'd love to use your series as a jumping off point (closer to the holidays.) Thanks for sharing your plan!
My pleasure! That’s a wonderful idea, making a Christmas card journal, and I hope you find lots of inspiration as I play in my journal! Thanks so much for watching! 😊

Thank you, Denise! 😊 I’m enjoying it immensely!
Looks like a fun project Cat. I’m thinking of joining along, as I have never made a junk journal before. Just purchased my first Christmas stamps at Tuesday Morning last week on vacation too. I look forward to this new series. Stay safe and healthy everyone.
Yes, I believe it will be fun, Linda, and I hope you will jump in and create along with me! Thanks so much for watching! 😊😊😊
I am like you...collected for years and watched a ton of others make a Christmas journal but I guess I was waiting on you to make one first...lol. So let the fun begin. Looking forward to seeing how yours goes. I always enjoy your choices of colors and techniques. I know this will be fun. So from NC, TFS. Debbie

YAY, Marti!! I’m so glad you’re excited to create a Christmas junk journal with me! 😃 Lol, IKR?! Who doesn’t love a doodly border? 😂
Have fun! I was thinking about doing something for Chanukah. Maybe I'll get some ideas!

🎄😊👋👍

Where did you get those adorable bags you put your kits in???? Sandy
Hi Sandy, those bags are available online at Amazon. 😊
Loving your journal so far........I want to make one.... but what do u fill it with.........really struggle with adding things 😣🤔☹
Thanks so much! You can add anything holiday-related and definitely things that you want to remember. A few ideas are: Christmas cards (or images cut from them), product labels and tags, photos of Christmas preparation, decorating, and, celebrating. I will be showing what I’m using in my journal and sharing ideas and hopefully that will help you to consider what you might use in yours. 😊
Cat, are you going to make some more grab bag kits? I'd like to join if I can.
Hi Kathy, I don’t have any plans to make more grab bag kits. That being said, I may gather some of the leftover items later this year, and do something with them, but it’s not a definite plan yet. 😊
@@CatHand ok. It’s my bad Bcuz I didn’t order when I should have. Thank you though.
Dang it I missed the kit
So sorry, Jojo. I hope you will still play along with me! 😊
What is the name of the glue your using to adhere the fabric?
I used Liquitex Matte Gel.
