Whimsical chicks and an off-kilter pocket ~

  • Let’s take a junk journal window envelope and make it into a pocket, but with a bit of a twist. Then let’s take apart some stamped flowers and turn them into chicken wings and butterflies. There’s no end to the wacky hijinks today, friends!

    If you’re looking for more junk journal ponderings…. Last summer, I made a limited-series podcast about all my deep thoughts regarding junk journaling. It’s free on the Spotify app! Search for “Ordinary Paper” or link here:
    podcasters.spotify.com/pod/da...
    Note that in the first episode, I mention that I was doing a podcast because I didn’t think I had enough ideas for a UA-cam channel. Things (happily) went a different way, so ummm, never mind on that!

    Hello Anne, what an adorable whimsical pocket. I just love watching when you do the whimsical things. This is one that I will have to teach my friend as we are working on our first complete journals. We are having so much fun creating them and your ideas are being used frequently. This is making it so much more of a true junk journal using junk and creating instead of purchasing digital kits. As always thank you for your inspiration.😊

    Very cute. Love your whimsical little birds. I think the top one looks like it has ears.

    • @annekenlon

      It sort of does look ear-like, doesn't it? I'm actually practicing with some more today, just to get more familiar with placement. Thanks for watching!

    Wasn't able to watch all of this. I'm back and of course loving the whimsical. I guess all I missed was the book paper on sides which is just what it need and the cute picture of the town. Cont wait to see what you come up with next😊❤

      Oh, thank you so much - and the greatest compliment you could have given me is by saying it is "so so doable" - that's what I always strive for! Nothing complicated here! Thanks for watching, I appreciate you!

    I was so happy to see another one of your videos show up on my feed, and loved learning another technique for creating whimsical chickens! So adorable! And I have that Textures & Frames stamp set as well as Sunshine Sayings that you used for the flower!😁

      Thank you, Tricia! That stamp set is just the best, isn't it? So versatile. I really appreciate your watching. I have new videos every Tuesday and Friday morning, so you can always find me even if I'm not in your feed. Thank you so much for crafting along with me!

    Hi Anne...have you noticed im the only comment so far not from a lady name followed by numbers?...lol. LOVED your envelope project, very fun and whimsical. ❤B

    When you’re talking about “glitter” glue - it doesn’t have glitter in it? I hate glitter 😮thank you!

    • @suzyallen1726
      @suzyallen1726 2 місяці тому +2

      No glitter don't know why the call it that.

      @annekenlon  2 місяці тому +2

      Yes, Suzy is right - "Art Glitter" is just the name of the manufacturer, and this is their glue. It's one of the most confusing names in the craft world - absolutely no glitter involved, just a terrific and fast-drying white glue!

      Hahaha, I did honestly worry about that when I made this concoction years ago! But there's not even a hint of an onion smell. Thanks for watching, Diane!
