One of my favorite parts of the journal is the stunning antique blue rhinestone jewelry piece I added to dangle on the outside of the pages. I am in love with the deep blue Paris script on that piece. I created a little tag from the new French ephemera bundle to attach to the closure for added interest. It added so much sparkle that I couldn’t stop looking at it as I walked by. It really went well with the blue book and tiny white ruffle. It is so beautifully embroidered and is the most gorgeous and striking shade of pink. I decorated the cover with a gorgeous piece of vintage Indian sari silk. I think it would be so pretty sitting on the shelf. I am really happy with how that turned out. The collar had the tiniest ruffle of lace and it adds a lot of interest when you look at the spine. I think it looks so nice together with the gorgeous gold detail of the book. I used a piece of an antique collar that I had picked up at a flea market for $1 to run down the spine and to join the extended piece to the original spine. I extended it to make room for all of the bits and treasures that go into creating a junk journal. It was falling apart so I took out the pages and lovingly rebuilt the spine. The journal itself is created from an antique book. I am always inspired by gorgeous French ephemera as I know many of you are too! This month I was feeling a bit uninspired, and I wasn’t sure what I wanted to create, but sure enough The Graphics Fairy released a new bundle called the Mini French Ephemera bundle and I knew that was the inspiration.
I am sharing my February design team project for The Graphics Fairy Membership site today.
