- I must admit for all of us its been a tough couple of years and I feel that 2022 holds a fresh start for me and a new beginning. To celebrate that I wanted to created myself a new journal to record more joyful and inspiring memories from the coming year. In this video I create that journal, this is a two part series with Part 1 being launched on 29th December 2021 and Part 2 being launched on 30th December 2021 in time to welcome the new year.
Part 2: • Creating my new 2022 j...
I love my new journal and I hope you enjoy the process I've shared of how I achieved the build.
Happy Crafting

Ceri, I am one of those people who love to hear the noise. Cutting, ripping, pasting, chopping. I laugh to myself when you say sorry for the noise. I do not think people mind that. You are great,and a wonderful teacher!
Thank you
Im just starting junk journaling. I appreciate how you explain multiple options for free or low cost supplies or processes instead of just buying things. Thanks so much!
You are a genius and creative. I’m so glad Gayle Agostinelli introduced you to us.
Thank you.
I found you last night and love every video I’ve watched so far! I’m going to start this journal tomorrow. I started making a shoebox caddy today. Can’t wait to start painting it tomorrow. Thank you so much for your videos!
You’re welcome, thank you.
Hi Ceri! Just rewatching your process. My sister and I are making a journal this Tuesday! We're excited. Thank you again for being such a great teacher. We really appreciate your videos. :) Have a great weekend!
Have fun
Appreciated how you joined the butterfly pages together & the tip of the cling wrap for the napkins. I got my first napkin the other day & was a bit nervous about using it, but now I won't be! I'm a new subscriber & it's lovely to have another guy to watch (I'm female btw 😘) as I feel men contribute uniqueness to the art world. 🥰❤️
Wonderful! thank you and welcome, sometimes guys come at arts and crafts from a slightly different direction and that makes it interesting.
Thanks for the tip on the plastic wrap - that’s brilliant! Beautiful cover!
You’re welcome.
Newbie here!!!! I am very eager to see where you are going with this journal!!!!!! I have seen some of your work and admired it in the past!!!!! Here's a tip for you. You can use those plastic folders found in school supply to use instead of the plastic cling. Just cut the pages apart to use and they can be wiped off and reused!!!!!!
Hello Betty and welcome, great idea thank you.
Loved the way you applied the green and yellow paint
Thank you
It's perfect. I didn't think I'd like the yellow but it works.
Thank you Joan, I try to be brave with my colour choices because I tend to stay with the same ones and my art gets boring.
I found your site by accident, and I am SO HAPPY that I have! I absolutely LOVE everything that you do. You are inspiring me to create more art. Thank you
Thank you.
Healthy ways with journals!
Thank you
I am amazed at the card technique. You use a card and scraping to accomplish what I do with dry brushing. I will have to try your way and see if it's easier. TFS Looking forward to the second part. 😊
Thank you. Part 2 out on the 30th.
Love that idea for the colors on the cover. Such super ideas. Thanks so much . Take care

Thank you Kath.
Hi Ceri, would you consider showing how to dye paper. Coffee,tea etc. thx. Enjoy watching your videos very much
Diane, I’ll add it to my list of videos to make but to be honest I’m not sure I do anything different to anyone else who already has videos out there.
Beautiful.🌺🌸
Thank you Mary.
Love this. Ceri you’re a wonder😊
Oh thank you Joyce.
I really appreciated the tip on scoring paper, valley into mountains; I'd never heard that before. Your journal cover is Stunning!😊
Thank you Linda, I learnt that from Gayle A.
This was so interesting to watch. It's beautiful! :)
Thank you
Love this. ❤
Thank you
Nice!
Thank you
✨🌼❣️Love it✨🌼❣️
Oml i have to see part two, this time iam happy to be 1900"th-late bc then i dont have to wait 🤓
Thank you Ceri❣️❣️❣️
You are amazely to explain all steep in the process ❣️❣️❣️
Thank you
As a collagist, I love what you did with your cover! So creative and I love the combination of colours.
Thank you I’m very pleased with it.
I love this video! I have learned so much! I have never heard of using the cling wrap and I am always tearing my napkins! And I absolutely love how you took care of the signature pages not being the right size. I will definitely be using that trick! Thanks so much! Can't wait for the second video!
Thank you Tonya, the second video is now published.
Beautiful cover! I enjoy watching mixed media techniques and how different people utilize them. The cling film tip was new to me.
Hi and hugs to you and Biscuit.
Thank you, I love the cling film technique.
Ceri, I enjoy how you blend your colors. It is great to learn how to “knock back” the color. I like the subtleness of the color after you put on the gesso. Very nice..
Thank you. Part 2 out on the 30th.
Hi Ceri! Great choices! Love butterflies and I like the subtle colors. I couldnt believe how much the thinner white paint moved the other colors that had been on there a minute or more. That did surprise me in a good way! 🙂 looking fwd to part2
Thank you. Part 2 out on the 30th.
Wonderful video. I made a book cover this week and covered it in fabric. I may never do a fabric cover again. I much prefer the freedom I have with choosing my own paper designs. You are a born teacher, Ceri!! The cover looks great!
Thank you
Love the colors on the book cover...can't wait to see more Ceri👍
Thank you. Part 2 out on the 30th.
FYI: When I click on Part 2 below this video, It go to a black screen with a message saying “This a private video”. This is disappointing because I’m looking forward to seeing Part 2. You’re a journal cover is beautiful!
Sorry the 2nd video is scheduled for the 30th I didn’t realise it would go to a black screen.
Holy cupcakes Ceri! I love how you did this cover.....I never thought to decoupage directly to a cover like you've done. I also love how you "joined" the butterfly pages in the signatures. Brilliant that you've got a little journaling space. I've got me some dollar store books but they are not white...urg but I do have gesso so problem solved! I can't wait to give this a go. Thank YOU!
You’re welcome Danielle, I’ve very happy with my new journal even though it’s a bit nerve wracking doing it with the world watching as it were.
I love this. I know I have a book from the Dollar Tree at home, can't remember why I bought it but now I believe I have the answer for it. I also have some tea I did not like that I saved the bags with a thought of tea dying some paper. I hope to get started this weekend on my cover :). Thank you as always for showing us all the creativity you have.
You’re welcome.
Enjoyed the whole process, ceri. Here 3.30am! Looking forward to part 2.
Thank you. Part 2 out on the 30th.
Gorgeous, Ceri! Can't wait for part 2! From Cheryl in AZ, USA
Thank you. Part 2 out on the 30th.
I love this. When you said stamping I thought, stamp some words. Woohoo you did and I love that. Black is a bit bold but it works beautifully. Love it so far. Can’t wait for the next video. Loving it from Texas! ❤️
Thank you. Part 2 out on the 30th.
Loved watching this process! You inspired me to do something similar for my collage journal cover. Thanks for the tip on using the plastic wrap.
You’re welcome, have fun.
Love this! Never used plastic wrap like that… definitely will try! Thanks for the inspiration! Always love what you create!
Thank you
This is so pretty. I need to do one so this was perfect timing watching you tonight!! I love how you blended the colors. Now I know how to do it. Thanks so much for sharing.
You’re welcome.
Great video! Lots of really good info. I’m ready to make a cover for myself. Thanks.
Have fun and good luck.
Hi Ceri, wow, I really love how you did the cover and picked your papers, my personal journals have a lot of plain paper. This will be a great series, thank you. 😊
Thank you, part 2 comes out on the 30th
@@CeriGriffiths oooh exciting Ceri. Take care 😊
Hi, I just "found" you today! I picked up tips from you that I didn't know. Do you mind telling me where abouts in Wales you are? I'm an English person living in Oregon, but I lived in Penarth for a number of years before moving to USA. I appreciate you answering questions too! Thanks.
Hi Susan and thank you, I live in Cardiff so not that far from Penarth.
Question about master boards: when you make them, do you cut up the master board and use them. Ie post cards, tags, 3 by 3 squares, or do you copy it, then use your copies or add to them? Thanks in advance for your input.
Karen, it’s a bit of both really if I create a master board for a certain journal I normally use cut it up but if it turns out to be a very special and unique master board then I with copy it, scan it or photograph it. I then use the copy and keep the original that way I have it physically and electronically.
Hope that helps.
Yes, it really does help. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer.😊
This may be a stupid question but what is the brown paper u put under the book to protect your desk? It’s not parchment paper because it didn’t make that noise parchment paper makes.
Sandra it’s actually a plastic Mat I think it’s for craft projects to protect your work surface when painting and gluing.
I just found you, Ceri and I love this video!! The cover is absolutely beautiful!! Can I ask what the white stuff you were using to cover up is? Also, where do you find your pretty napkins? I can’t wait to watch Video#2. Thank you from Florida.
Thank you, the white stuff I was scraping on was white gesso, my napkins I collect when I see them or I buy them on Etsy, sometimes I swap a few with other crafting friends so I build up a collection and variety. Part 2 of the video will be published on the 30th.
Wow that’s interesting. We have something in common. You take apart black history books I take apart white supremacy books. Didn’t think that you had to say that. You should have just said it was a book.
Jackie, no intention was made to insult I just used a book, it could have been on any subject, thank you for watching and commenting.
Hi Ceri. I am just starting to try crafting. You have mentioned 'signatures' a few times. What do you mean by 'signatures'? Love the videos.
A signature is a bundle of pages within a journal or book. example, if I take 15 sheets of paper and fold them in half, place them one inside of another creating a bundle of pages with a spine this is a signature, depending on the journal or book there can be one or many signatures. I hope that helped.
