Well hello to Autumn, hardly feels like Summer
visited at all lol, but then this is England so nothing
unusual about that.
Today I am sharing my DT project for
I am trying to be a bit "thriftier" with my crafting and
shopping for bargains to share. This Tin that the journal is
made to fit into was £1 from Poundland, and contained
coloured pencils /eraser/sharpener/ruler and Alphabet stencil.
My friends June and Shasteya gave me these beautiful
digi papers for free!!!
I started by printing 2 of the patterned papers onto
each side of some 120gsm card stock, and making
a basic concertina ...
I then took some £1 post it notes and added them
randomly to the "pages" as journalling panels...
before going wild with more of the images from
the same free paper collection, adding a few stickers
I already had in my stash...
On the reverse I just used the letter stencil that came
in the Tin to add a few Autumnal phrases...
To finish I decorated the tin lid with a couple more
pieces from the collection.
All in all I am very happy with this little
"Tinned Journal"
And I highly recommend trawling the stationary
and kiddy craft sections at Poundland
(or your countries equivalent)
when looking for journalling items.
And if you have a printer, check out FB and other
intrnet places for free paper downloads.

I would like to share this project with the following challenges:
