#junkjournaljanuary2025

Apparently, this is an annual thing. I just learned of it and decided to join when I ran across it on Instagram. I love making journals, books, minis, etc. so even if I don't actually write in it (and I probably won't. LOL) it will be a fun project to complete. Here's what I have so far.

Day 1: COVER
I started with a this 5x7 mini album that has been in my craft closet for YEEEEARS!!! Life's Journey Correspondence Album by K&Company. I used lots and lots of scraps and stamps and washi tape to redo the entire front cover. 

Day 2: ENVELOPE
For day 2 I used a Heidi Swapp mini envelope die. Pretty plain and boring.

My creative juices weren't flowing I guess. I like the page, so far, but it really needs some help. I may add to it later. 

Day 3: TICKETS

I love tickets! I could've gone all out but for some reason I did not. Leftover slump from the day before I suppose. I do love how my tickets turned out though. These are homemade from stamps and a circle punch. 

Pocket for the tags and flap for private journaling. The page tab is one of several I made a few months ago just to have in my stash for things like this. 

Day 4: OUTLINE
This prompt stumped me. I wasn't sure how to approach it. I thought about outlining the entire page, then maybe each of the individual papers in the patchwork, and I just wasn't sure. I ended up outlining just the arrow and the ticket at the bottom. It's ok I guess. What comes to your mind for this prompt?

If you would like to join, check out youtube, or instagram for the hashtag, #junkjournaljanuary2025 or go here for Meg Journals and follow the prompts. (I have no affiliation, I just decided to make one along with everyone else when I saw the posts on Instagram.)
