Scrapbook Christmas Gift

 I did take a photo of the cover just in case my Secret Pal goes surfing my blog. This is what I've added in the last couple of days. I need to stop because the Junk Book is getting to fat....hehehehehe!

Most of my ideas so far have come from Pat at The Paper Outpost and Natasha at Treasure Books.

Joyce Carter sent me a link to fabric and memories. (Thanks sooooooo much Joyce...this from Mr. Cowboy.....cause I kind of threw you under the bus for giving me the link). I managed to save the link to my bookmark pages before Mr. Cowboy blew his top. I think he was really a bit hungry so I fixed him a quick snack.  Anyway, look at these cute tiny envelops. They are so cute & very simlpe to make.

These tags were fun and quick to make as well.

On this page I threw in a little pocketbook calendar for 2023.

And finally, I made a dangly thingy for the back spine. I'm going to call it quits......maybe.

Remember, for some reason your comments do not show up in my email......trust me I've tried everything. So I've gone to responding in my comments. And thanks you all for the warm comments. I read each one as often as I can.

Scrapbook Squirrel

 

Hi everyone!! First of all I want to give a big thank you to Pam from The Paper Outpost (she's on YouTube) for introducing me to "Junk Scrapbooking!"  Then there's Natasha from Treasure Books (also on YouTube) & Curio By B-Spoke Designs (sorry I've not caught his name & he's on YouTube as well).

Today I was working on 3 cover pages from Natasha.

Here are the 3 sets of items I pulled out to work on.  At one point Mr. Cowboy came in needing breakfast.....sign!!!!!!

    

And then here they are all glued down. I really love how they all turned out and the tutorial was easy to follow. I did pause and rewind many, many times though.  I may add more another day but at this point I've worn myself out!!

 Let's get into it.......

So here's my first doodle attempt....sorry I didn't take a better photo. It's an eye. I'm going to like this "Doodler" design program now that I understand and have practiced. The online facebook group is a fantastic resource when ironing out what to do.

The hankie folding is coming along. I just need to be more precise. The great thing about this process is if you mess up all you need to do is press out the folds and start over!!

Did I mention that I'm now into Junk Journaling?! Love it already but my head is spinning with so many ideas.  These make great stocking stuffers. 

I've had to use a timer so that I can work on the journaling then the hankies and the doodling.....LOL.

Oh yea, I need to get in some actual quilt block time too. So many projects...so little time.

Mr. Cowboy just walks by my sewing room and shakes his head.

What are some of your stocking stuffer favorites??
