Hey paper peeps! I started creating an artsy fartsy art journal dedicated just for gardening! I love gardens so much, they are the most peaceful & beautiful places! To have a special little keepsake to keep all kinds of flowery goodness in makes me all sorts of happy!
I used an old vintage hard cover book, and just tore a bunch of pages out to make room for new messy ones! ;)
I used a mix of vintage garden paper and new ephemera pieces to create a little collage area on the cover, then topped it off with a chippy painted book plate and some chipboard pieces!
I hung this beautiful charm off the binding with yarn, they were
in my shop but are all sold out now! I may be putting more up soon!
I love mixing different sized letters, it adds a cute handmade eclectic feel!
Here's a couple pages I put in, I used a beautiful bloom cutfile by Just Nick Studio!
The floral hummingbird paper is by Maggie Holmes for Crate Paper, isn't it so pretty?!
Do you have a garden art journal? I can't wait to get this thing "dirty!"
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Sarah this is so beautiful and wonderful idea to use an old book with new paper and little pretties....to adorn your garden journal...love
