I also love how the awagarmi paper tears. It’s gorgeous
Great seeing your process . Very inspiring
Okay…I’m running off to my craft room to collect papers….so excited!!
Yaaay, happy to have you join me 🤗🩷
I haven't even started watching yet but am very excited Thanks for doing this Sara. Now I will start watching. Hugs
Aaw you're so welcome! Happy to have you join me for this 🩷🩷🩷 another vid coming soon!
Congratulations! So many inspiring ideas in this journal for my own making. I love the paper you used so much that I have already purchased from the Etsy shop you introduced.
Oh awesome! 🤗🩷 yes, they are so pretty! I'm sure you put a smile on her face too! 🩷🩷🩷
It’s so very interesting to see how other junk journal makers put together their signatures. Especially a maker that is as good as you are. Thank you.❤
Also, what brand of Japanese Washi paper do you use. I definitely need to try some! I love printing on different papers 💜
"Awagami", I bought the "professional ink jet printer paper pack" although my printer doesn't like the thinker hand made ones, I can use those for watercolour 🤗🩷
I’m definitely not a linear journal maker. I do basic steps the same way, but once it comes to decorating, I’m all over the place. I know some have a set number of pockets/tucks per signature, set number of tags, etc…I just don’t like to work that way bc it stifles my creativity. Thank you for organizing yourself enough to show us your process!
Yes! I think that makes journals so unique!🩷 I'm the same, I have no idea how many tags, ephemera etc are in my journals, I just stuff them in wherever they are needed 😂
This is as beautiful and tasteful as the others. You really inspire me to create. I love paper crafting! What size of rings do you have on this journal?
Aw thank you 🩷 unfortunately I don't have her anymore to measure the rings, I bout a variety and used what fitted her best, but from memory they were either 50mm or 54mm the 40mm was too small 🤗🩷 hope this helps
I am working on an altered book that needs this help, so thank you.❤
Thanks so much for taking the time to do this. Loved watching it!❤
Aaaw I'm just glad someone is watching it and getting something from it! Makes it worth doing 🤗🩷 thank you

This was a very good intro to the series. Thanks!
Aaaw, phew! I'm new at this one so thank you for that, a couple more kids will be coming this week (it's Monday in NZ) 🩷🤗 thank you
You are awesome, Sara. 🫶🏻 Thank you so much for teaching us how to do journals properly. I still struggle and have to hide my mistakes in my journals. I appreciate all the time you put into creating step by step videos. You are an amazing teacher. ❤️🥰 Donna
Aaaw Donna 🤗🩷 thank you. I'm not sure about properly lol there's so many ways to do them, this is just the way i find easiest and how my mind works, so heres hoping I can continue to decipher it into some sort of logical explanation for you 😂🩷
Thank you that was a fabulous idea🤩🤩
Aaaw you're so welcome 🩷🤗
Thank you this is going to be great.
Aw I hope so 🤗🩷 thank you
This is just wonderful. I've been so looking forward to this announcement. Thank you for taking the time, and we all understand how uncomfortable you may be, but we enjoy and support your creativity emensley. It's going to be such fun.
Aaaw thank you, I'm glad to have you along with me 🩷🩷🩷
The torn edges really do look good, TFS.
So FLUFFY! Lol, I love texture, so I'm glad you appreciate it too 🩷🤗 thank you
Thank you for doing this, we needed some fresh and new ideas. The way you journal is very different from most. I appreciate your kindness♥️have a wonderful day🤩
Aaaw, 🩷🩷🩷 thank you. I hope I can provide some fresh ideas 🤗
I'm definitely looking forward to this series ... as for that beautiful dust jacket, I think it would make an amazing journal cover. TFS
Oooh thank you for the feedback! I had also thought (once off camera, I could use it on the back of the cover and decorate the front, what do you think? That way I can show you lovelies how I make an embellished cover as well 🤗🩷
@sara-leearmstrong5009 ... that is a wonderful idea ... and yes please, I'd love to see how you decorate your covers.
Sara... You have Made My Day!
Aaaaw 🤗🩷
Hi , new subbie here. Could you give the measurements of the book and the spine please. I’m new to this and I’m trying to get a feel of the amount of pages, signatures etc… for the size of the books. I don’t want gator mouth journals. lol Can’t wait to see how it turns out. I do like the book jacket for the cover. Thanks for doing this video. 🦃🦃
@jodimartin4250 oh this will totally be a gator mouth! 😂😂😂 my journals always are! But of course, the measurements are H18cm x W12.5cm X Spine 3cm Lovely to have you join me 🥰🩷 thank you
So excited for this series! I’m going to try to work along with you (likely to be much slower though 😄) 🥰❤
Haha you can put me on half speed and make me sound really sloooow 😂 so glad you're keen for this one! 🥰
@@sara-leearmstrong5009 😂😂
YEAH🎉🎉🎉 Thank you so much for doing this Sara!! I absolutely ❤️ your channel and style. I'm looking forward to this!! I'd say use that cover in the signature and decorate like you donwith laces❤
Thanks for sharing 😊❤
You are so welcome🤗🩷 thanks for watching 🥰
Thanks for sharing 😊❤
Everyone has their own method but l usually decorate my cover first and use it for inspiration while l am doing the journal - l then cut my pages to fit - l have found a hidden spine to be easier to bind 😊
Yes! This one is going to have a hidden spine 🩷🤗 By the sounds of it you are already expert level and are likely beyond this series, I just know people have mentioned in the comments that they struggle to know where to start, are just beginning, or asked to see me make from beginning to end and I'd love to help them out. I'd also love for you to keep watching these though, as your comment is really helpful for these journallers, just so they know it can be done differently and this is just my one way of doing it 🥰
Love your channel! Just discovered you a little while ago and l really like how you explain and show what you are doing and explain it! You are doing a great job! I have seen other channels that speed everything up to save time and l have no idea what l just saw- l can watch your video once and l got it😊Thank you for taking your time❤
Aaaw I'm so happy you found me, and thank you so much for your kind words🥰 I do speed up when ripping pages, repeating a process or sometimes when inking or cutting, I hope that's ok❤❤❤
@@sara-leearmstrong5009 totally fine to speed up the obvious 😁
Love this!
Aaw thank you 🥰
Gorgeous ❤️
Stunning and so very lovely. You are beautiful inside and out! You have won my heart! Please keep being you! ❤🌹✅
What a wonderful soul you have. Margaret’s journals are perfect for writing and placing pictures. It was so was so delightful and beautiful to see. They are so quaint. I love them. Please keep creating. Thank you
Hello there, I hope you are well. Love the black. It is very unique. That one would stay in my Possession. I could not sell or give that one away. You did an awesome job on this journal. Love the design of the cover. Outstanding! Thank you so much! Love your work!
love your creativity
I would love one and it's now on my to do list which is already way to long. Awesome work.
I am going to have to make one of these for myself! Beats keeping stuff in a big brown envelopes and snaplock bags like I've been doing! Beautiful and functional.
Oh brilliant! I love that 💛💛💛
Your painting is very beautiful Sara-Lee. A beautiful and generous gift, your friend will be delighted.
Thank you so much 😊💛
Perfect winner! Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉
Congratulations!!! What a beautiful journal. Thank you for the paper link as well.
She will be delighted to receive this gift. Talk about the gift that keeps on giving. I am sure she will use them in the future or maybe she will just open it and enjoy. I learn so much from you - so many great ideas. Keep on making and we will certainly keep on enjoying your work. Hugs
Aaaw thank you 💛🤗 I am so lucky that you guys appreciate the things I make 🥰
It's amazing the work you are able to do on your bed :-) I don't have the time I'd like to have to put into journal making - but when I work its at our kitchen table - - and I love grunge too - love love your style and so glad I ran across you this morning - I've subscribed ❤
Aw thank you for finding me 🥰 I love making junk journals and arting so I make it work 😆💛
What a fantastic idea!! The cover is stunning. Thanks for sharing and inspiring us 🧡
Thanks so much! 😊💛
Such a beautiful journal! She has included so many different kinds of papers with so much texture. Just lovely! Thank you for sharing!💕💕
Oh girl...what a beautiful gift for your friend! It's stunning 😍 Please give yourself more credit than you do, I would NEVER 2x forward your videos. You're a gifted artist. Please 🙏 do more tutorials on how you make page layouts. I'm new and can't seem to make even one JJ 😅 Happy Holidays💝
I am think8ng that I'm going to do a start to finish journal during the Christmas break, would that be helpful? I've dreaded doing it as my process in real life is so chaotic and not tutorial worthy lol so I'll really have to plan it 😆
@sara-leearmstrong5009 Ohhhhh yes!! You do a fantastic job, and I'd love to learn more about how to make one. Including those beautiful pages , pockets etc...❤
Yes, i’d love to receive that. It’s just perfect. I know you keep saying it’s not pretty but I think it’s pretty fabulous.
Aaaw thank you 🥰
Absolutely stunning journal😍😍 I love every little detail you put into this 👌🏼 and the paper clips I have to try to make that. The cover is stunning too 🤩🤩great work as always, love it!
Aaaw thanks you 😘
Your friend is a lucky ducky ❤
Hehe "lucky ducky" love it 🦆💛
What an amazing gift!
Thank you 🤗
The cover is so beautiful. What a unique and functional piece of art!!
Aaaw thank you 🤗🩷
Beautiful and unique 😊
Thank you! 😊🩷
Lucky friend! This is beautiful and functional, I would love to be gifted something like this, I am sure she will be very happy. Your painting is very beautiful. I went to a Harekeke (New Zealand flax plant) workshop, it was for a whole weekend and we learned how to prep the fibers for weaving and made a little basket, it was a lot of fun.
Wow that's so cool! The only thing I know how to weave is a puti puti harakeke (flax flower) did you harvest the flax yourself? I learnt about saying a karakia (prayer), not to cut the three middle stems etc, it was so interesting 🤗🩷
What an incredible idea for a gift. Your friend will no doubt love it! Thank you for sharing. Beautiful job.
Aaaw thank you! Hopefully it gives people some ideas or inspires some new ones 🩷🤗
