As one of the days for the 12 Days of Christmas swap, I made a junk journal folio. @Edel had mentioned ephemera, and one of her pinterest boards was ideas for “fodder”, not a term I had come across before. There were some fantastic ideas on there, which set me thinking. Then (via a rabbit hole of pinterest boards) I discovered an Etsy store that sells printable junk journal kits, one of them being in the form of a folio.
The outside of the folio, with a string and wrap closure -
To create these, I used acrylic paints to create one sheet of greens and browns and one sheet of oranges, yellows and reds. I covered the sheets in a variety of stamps and fussy cut them all out. (I especially love how the leaves came out )
It’s so lovely! I like the kit (thanks for the link, I’ll happily fall down that rabbit hole!), but the addition of all the beautiful ephemera makes this amazing.
