The almost last pages in my journal -

HAPPY EASTER to you all , I hope you spend cosy , safe and lovely days ,

even we spend them at home and alone , most of us. 

Here are the next five spreads in my junk-journal ,

The materials are mostly the same , as described in the first post

of this ,-  here I also used a piece of an old floor cloth , lovely tattered ,

you see it near the bird-  (please click the photoes for more clearly see the details ) 

Maybe you can see the little handrolled flower, which I was inspired

to flatten , after watching one of  : Sigitacoffeestains   you-tube ,-to make it more suitable for a journal, - Thank you Sigita . In right page you see a tiny tag peaking out from a pocket .

Here a ruffle on the left on top of old paper, and to the right a little pocket

with another tag inside .

Handmade flower and yo-yo ,  a bit of slow-stitching 

laces and machine stitching .

And for now the last one , papers from  The Paper Garden again

(see link in my earlier post )  paper napkins and more machine stitching .

I`m not satisfied with the photos, but hope you can see better when clicking them .

I also hope you are all safe and keep going, in this our new world. It gives heavy 

thoughts , and even tears on some days, and therefore this community is so important

for so many of us, sharing our creations, and thoughts , thank you for being there !!

Hugs and love Dorthe 

PAGES FROM A NATURE JUNK BOOK-

It seems rather a long time since I was here,, but wanted to

show you what I have been trying to distract myself with through the 

last many weeks, of covid-19 worry .

The book is made with old coffee dyed papers, and envelopes , and here

are the first 5 spreads . I used old pieces of papers, and fabrics, from my 

paper and fabric junk-boks - handmade flowers and tags. 

If you click the photo, you will have a bigger image . 

And papers from https://papergarden.fi/gb/ a lovely Finnish shop .like

the Lily -of -the -Valley above and others. The birds are all from

an old nature journal.

The stamps are from FB : June Mac ------and the tree stamp below ,and some words

are https://lynnesbowsandbelles.wordpress.com/

and SOLD IN https://www.thatscrafty.co.uk/checkout.html

There are little clusters like the one below flower rosettes

and old book pages, already yellowed by time . 

I so hope you are all safe and well ,-- here we try the best and

only goes out for a walk every day, and not meeting many persons .

Take care dear friends, all over the world, we are in this all together

and we will stay positive , hopefully, with a daily creative time . 

Hugs and love

Dorthe 

My junk journal , shown with all pages !!

Many of you might have seen this  junk journal ,on IG and FB , but I hope you 

will have yet another look , here, too.

The journal is created using all kind of paper scraps, and fabrics-

packing pieces, send to me from friends in the big world, used tea-bags ,

little rags from my stash

handmade tags, and a real embroidered leaf , added to an envelope 

Here another tea-bag lady , and a rolled rose,

This was a card I was not satisfied with, so tore it to pieces,

and used them separately .

Piece of tea bag paper , and everything sprayed with infusions .

The last photo is a paper napkin adhered to fabric. ( left side )

I like to link this to  Mini Album Makers Challenge

HELLO JANUARY

Hello friends,  how are you, and your January?

No much winter here, but all the same bleak tones outside in nature , 

so I was inspired to this collage .

I love this stampset  from PaperArtsy, and

found a skeleton leaf to use with it .

The bird is highlighted with the wonderful 

That`s Crafty Acrylic Liqued Wax .

I hope you all have a good start on the new year , -- and  I send

my best wishes to the Australian people suffering so much , for

them soon to have ongoing rain in the affected areas .

Hugs and love

Dorthe 

WISHING YOU ALL A HAPPY NEW YEAR !

With these two angels I wish you all the Peace , good Health

and Happiness, for the next year.

I hope you all have had beautiful Christmas days ,

with your loved ones, and enjoyed the time together, as I did  . 

Blessings 

Love 

and Hugs

for your 2020

Just wishing you a Happy December

Not here so much anymore I know,, but today a greeting from me 

with this card .

I used different snowflake stamps, and the big die cut  one is from

Søstrene Grene, here in DK  .

Also one of Tim Holz acrylic tiles on top of madonna and child ,- 

white flowers and berries , glittering fabric, not to see so much  here, I`m sorry ,

The die cut wreath is a Sizzix  die and star I don`t remember

from where it came . The words are from a stencil , and made with 

texture paste . I used Infusions to spray the card .

-----------

I hope you enjoy the festive months, - we all have so much to do,

and stress is always around the corner , but hopefully it stays there!!

Hugs and love

Dorthe
