DIY Cross-Stitch Journal

Hey everyone, Starting off the year with a mini series from the archives. I filmed this tutorial back in March of 2018 but have only just gotten to it now. In this tutorial, I show you how to make a handmade journal from card stock (from scratch), collect papers to make inserts and make the inserts into signatures which you can bind in a cross stitch pattern which shows beautifully on the outside of the spine. I have broken this tutorial up into 3 parts so that it isn't very overwhelming. Part 1 is HERE Part 2 is HERE Part 3 is HERE I hope you are inspired to make one of your own. Cheers, Amira

A Wizard's Mixed Media Journal ~ Part 1 ~ Slytherin's Journal

Hi everyone, I am so excited to be making a series of Mixed Media Journals using Eileen Hull's Journal XL Die.  This was inspired by my recent purchase of Colorplay's Wizard World paper collection. Watch my review video on these 2 products HERE In this series, I will make 4 journals all inspired by Harry Potter's House Faction colors (love you forever and ever J.K. Rowling for this wonderful fictional world you have created). This video kicks off the first of the process videos showing you how I made the 'Slytherin' journal cover. Slytherin colors are really a beautiful combination of - Mid Green - Deep Green - Light Grey -Dark Grey - Black Here is how the front cover turned out. And here is the inside of the front cover. Watch the process video HERE Thank you for stopping by. xxAmira
