Ok ladies, here are two photos of the junk journal sent to me by Vivki. She chose a paperback copy of Emily Dickinson poems. She painted a rooster on card stock and glued it to the cover of the book. Then every few pages she inserted some brown paper to journal on. It appears that she singed the corners and edges of the paper to give it the appearance of vintage paper.

Oh I just love all photos of your junk journals and how you do your pages etc. I have never made one, but I am starting one for myself to see if I can do it and I have all the support I need. If I can and I think it is up to the standards of all of yours I will join the swap one day. Heck I am just getting comfortable making ATC:-) Thank you Farmgirls for sharing you journals the are all beautiful!

Debbie, I'm sure you can make one, just the way you like it. If you go on you tube and type in junk journals...wow! There are so many ideas. I tend to over load mine, mainly because I did not understand. But the other day I watched a young lady who said five or six pages per signature is all you need...because five pages is actually 20 pages if you have folded your paper in half...Then count front and back. She also said three signatures is probably enough. Also leave space between your signatures, as if you might want to add another later on... But you need that space because your book will grow fat and fatter as you put photos and memorabilia in it.I I've decided there are no hard and fast rules. Enjoy yourself!
