Junk journal from book pages

Journal design by Nazy of Amity Bloom (see tutorial here). Alterations, embellishments and ephemera by me. Super fun little journal, make it as elaborate or as plain as you like. I love adding lots of goodies inside so it becomes chunky, but also leaving lots of room for actual journaling or, if you prefer, adding your own artwork/embellishments. Hope you like! 

I started with a sort of small-ish book from the Dollar Tree. If I had known when I bought the book that it would eventually become this specific project, I would have bought a larger book. LOL But that will happen next time I'm at the thrift store for sure. The pages I started with were 7.5x4.75 inches. The finished book measures 5.25x4 inches. Here is the front cover:

Thanks for looking. If you're new to junk journaling and/or making mini books, this is really an easy way to get started. The tutorial (linked above at Amity Bloom on you tube) walks you through each step and Nazy also shares tips along the way. Her tutorials and easy to follow and her projects are fabulous. I  hope you'll check our her channel and give this one a try.
