I spent 4th of July weekend much as I did 5 years ago, creating art and promoting my Anniversary Sale.
This collection of papers is called “Precious,” from Stamperia. I love the high quality and the gorgeous designs of the papers that I use in my creations. Instead of making an album, I made this stuffed envelope with lots of mini journals and other elements. EnJoy the video here, as well!

I got the idea to make a journal from a recycled magazine, thanks to Nicole of Relax, Cut, Glue. Thanks, Nicole!
I used a small magazine, removing many pages and gluing pairs of others together to make somewhat thicker pages, which I decorated with various papers. My inner perfectionist complained that the pages are not as smooth as she likes! And a friend suggested that the imperfections add texture and charm to the journal. EnJoy the video tour as well.
