I got a STUNNING package from @tendstowardschaos! I have already added some of these things to my current junk journal and I’m considering making a second one so I can showcase even more of these lovely things.
First up, the card she sent. Gorgeous, right?
And I’ll be saving that seal for later, too.
These tags are so beautiful and I love the wax seals and bits of netting. So perfect!
Some lovely embellishments with lots of pretty texture:
All of these cute little bags and envelopes… yeah- keeping them! They will make some awesome and interesting journal fodder!
Check it the cutest string envelope! I love these!
And inside, wax seals featuring bees and mushrooms, and glue dots!
Speaking of wax seals, I get to join the cool kids who do these! Check it out! Excited to try this out!
Altered paper clips- I’m so tickled that we made these for each other!
The Grand Finale!! Look at this gorgeous folio! Oh, be still my heart….
There are 2 more altered paper clips in there ( look for beads…. You’ll find them!) and these hidden notes❤️!
They slide closed almost seamlessly and the note is then hidden inside the unassuming ephemera. I wish I’d made her some of these- they would have been so on-theme!
Oh, but wait… this grande finale has an encore! She sent me lots of extras from her stash of goodies!!
Among that tremendous assortment of delights were a couple of extra special treats:
A match book notepad with cool paper (which looks like it may have been hand printed)
And this adorable ephemera wallet!
Thanks so much @tendstowardschaos for such an amazing swap!!
