Posted - Aug 31 2026 : 07:51:33 AM I thought it might be fun to do another junk journal swap. I won't specify a size. This one needs to be homemade and a Fall theme. You can decorate as much as you like. I want to give us some time on this one so sign ups will be until September 21 and mail out by September 30th. This gives us lots of time to work on it. Who wants to join me?

Posted - Oct 09 2026 : 5:50:28 PM Wanda Sue, I received your journal when I got home tonight. Just gorgeous! I love it. You are so creative. I will post a picture in the morning. I just love all the decorated pages and pockets. And the cover with the little leaf on the closure! I can't believe it's only your second one. Thank you so much I will love using it! I wish I could be more creative to do my pages that way.

Posted - Oct 06 2026 : 2:47:10 PM Im tickled you liked it Sherry! I was afraid it might be too 'naturey'. Im not a very frilly kind of girl , blue jeans and outside for tge most part so it's flowers and animals for me. I actually don't know HOW to make a girly one, lol. Pitiful huh? But happy you liked it. I thought the foldable multi note thingy was pretty amazing. NOT made by me but another artist, local. Same with soap! Both local artists . Happy fall sweet Sherry!

Posted - Oct 06 2026 : 12:49:43 PM Joan your journal arrived today. The fairy's are adorable! The whole journal just brightened my day. Thank you for the extra also, it has given me some ideas for the next journal I make. The journal I made for you should arrive Thursday. I went to the post office 3 times. The one and only full time employee at our local post office got married. How sad that they couldn't find anyone to fill in.
