<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Yes, I'm back and want to catch you up-to-date<br />on what's happening in my life.<br /><br />I've updated my "Contact" page and my "Hello" page<br />with more current information.<br /><br />I'm still crafting and I continue to enjoy making<br />vintage junk journals. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I was selling on Etsy<br />and doing well but recently made the decision<br />to build a website again.<br /><br />Now that the website is up and running </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I closed down the Etsy Shop.<br /><br />On my website, you'll find both<br />physical and digital items available.<br /><br />You will see journals and other physical items<br />listed as I create them.<br /><br />You will see some digital kits I've<br />created as well.<br /><br />So please check back often! :)<br /><br />Let me give you the link <a href="https://www.porchswingdesigns.net/" target="_blank">HERE</a> so you can </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">go check it out for yourself.<br /><br />I'm still creating lots of journals and sometimes<br />other things but I recently started creating</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">digital kits that can be used by others to<br />create their own journals, albums,<br />cards, and scrapbooks.<br /><br />I just, in the last few days, </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">created "In the Garden" a digital prayer journal kit.</span><br />

As you can see, it has multiple types and colors of lace draping from the cover.</div>
I used white, cream and ecru colored lace and finished off with some<br />
beautiful soft turquoise lace that is encrusted with pearls and sequins.<br />

The shabby flower on the cover is made using various laces,</div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was approached by Yvonne at ScreechOwlStudio on Etsy to do a Design Team (DT) project a few weeks back. I'm so excited to share the completed project with you. I used Yvonne's digital kit called "Vintage Seamstress" and the add-on kit that goes with the kit. It's such a beautiful kit with lots of ephemera! Even so, I got carried away and the Vintage Junk Journal I created a huge, chunky Journal.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hello there!<br /><br />I'm sharing another of my mini album/journals with this post. This one-of-a-kind album/journal was made using Graphic 45's "Enchanted Forest" papers and ephemera and is filled with fairies, princesses, princes, maidens, a knight in shining armor, and even a dragon or two! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The album/journal was made using Graphic 45's Enchanted Forest papers and ephemera. It
measures 6 3/4" tall x 4 3/4" wide and is 1 3/4" at the spine. I did a
lot of fussy cutting throughout the book and that can be seen above on
the cover.</span></span><br />

I matted the cover with a page that I cut and crafted to fit. I then added the layering, to bring texture, by fussy cutting some of the elements. After it was completed, I added Wink of Stella clear to add some glitz and to make the elements on the cover pop.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Hello!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br />I really enjoy making journals and I have a new prayer journal to share with you. I named her "Grace" and I really enjoyed making her. The cover is made using a 9" x 12" clasp envelope, it has 78+ pages, counting fronts and backs of pages and not counting doilies, bags, or anything else but full pages. Her measurements, after adding two signatures, are 9" x approx 5 1/2."</span></span><br />

<br />
These handmade books were made using medium weight chipboard,<br />
so they are very sturdy. I made them so that the notepad can be removed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
when it is "used up" and another notepad put back in its place.<br />
So, these covers should last for a long time.<br />
<br />
I used Stickles on the Fairies wings and on the frame around the Fairies.<br />
<br />
The peach colored notebook is made a bit differently, as I added crocheted lace ties to close the book.<br />
<br />
You will find these notebooks in my Etsy shop,<br />
PorchSwingDesigns, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/PorchSwingDesigns?ref=hdr_shop_menu" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

This journal is 7 3/4" x 5 3/8" with a 2" spine. It has 2 handsewn signatures (sewn with a 3-hole pamphlet stitch), holds 84 pages, counting fronts and backs, and has lots of space for journaling. Many of the pages are coffee or tea stained and oven baked. It has charms attached to the spine on a removable chain.<br />
<br />
It contains tags (many with charms), ephemera, bags, pockets, envelopes, tuck spots, corner flaps, 2 paper clips, and some Prima Seashore metal clips and more! It closes with a Tim Holtz hitch post and a black stretchy clip.<br />
<br />
The cover is reinforced with "Tyvek" for added strength and is made from a food box which was cut to the size needed.<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I've added a new art form to my crafting and I'm here to share it with you. I recently discovered Junk Journals and it was love at first sight for me. I've made four of them now and this is only the second one that I managed to take photos but I actually took it a step further and made a video of it. My first ever video!! :)</span></span><br />

Drum roll, please!<br />
<br />
I now have a YouTube channel AND an Etsy Shop!! WoO HOo!! This was a huge step for me because I love to craft, so any diversion from that always takes away that time. But, what must be, must be, so we do what we need to do. Yes, of course, I'm very excited about all this!!<br /></div>

This is the front cover. It's made two 9" x 12" manila mailing<br />
envelopes (one inside the other) and to add strength and durability,<br />
it's reinforced on the inside using Tyvex. I altered its size before sealing.</div>

After it's constructed and sealed, I used Vintage Photo and Walnut</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ranger Distress Ink to stain the outside.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the first coat of Podge Collage to seal and give it a bit of a sheen,</div>

then add the image of Rose and the back cover and the final coat of Podge Collage.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I made this large album as a Christmas gift last year. I so enjoyed making it because it sent me to look through several boxes of family photographs that I hadn't look through in a very long time and it proved to be quite an emotional roller coast ride for me. From those boxes, I scanned photos to place in the album and it was truly a labor of love.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I wish I'd taken another photo of the album before I put it in the mail because I did change the ribbon to a simple white one. You can still, however,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">get an idea of it from this photo, although I do not believe that these photos</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">do the album justice at all. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I used DCWV's "Once Upon a Time" paper stack to make this album and it was perfect for this project. The album has 6 pages with many flaps and flip-outs.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I wanted the outside to look like an old book and I think I achieved the look. The paper on the cover depicts the interior of a grand castle.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">This next photo shows the first few pages of the album. Unfortunately, I initially forgot to take photos of the album before I began to add photos. So, I have blocked out the photos to protect the receiver's privacy, but to still allow you to see the first few pages.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I created a castle door from an image I found online and used it to add to my theme. This door opened to reveal the castle behind it. You can see that there are flaps, pockets and inserts on nearly every page in the photos that follow.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu96MrwNvzuGh0EsaJurvQiRlI5HaTaIiGdNm4lXv3kXPtK4VnS2d6vLVPf0CLe5ZEQ2tJpuZCDLXyDnYskQEMa9mrPdOpishQ6898YDmf66KnapzILS79MVb3jK6zzAOBKpSeAPvnLFM/s1600/2+masked+.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="220" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu96MrwNvzuGh0EsaJurvQiRlI5HaTaIiGdNm4lXv3kXPtK4VnS2d6vLVPf0CLe5ZEQ2tJpuZCDLXyDnYskQEMa9mrPdOpishQ6898YDmf66KnapzILS79MVb3jK6zzAOBKpSeAPvnLFM/s320/2+masked+.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Even though the photos are blocked out, I think you can still get a good idea of what the album pages looked like. The colors of this paper are so rich and some of them have glitter on them. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">From this point forward, I had not placed any photographs on the pages so you will be able to see all the pages as I created them and see how beautiful it all goes together. I actually found it very difficult to put photos in place and cover the paper, but I did. :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">You can see pockets, inserts, fancy envelopes, flaps, and a waterfall page.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">This album, like so many others I've shared, was made using templates from Jenifer Harrison at Jen of Eve Designs. They are super easy to use and require NO measuring! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">This template set is called "The Ultimate DIY Scrapbook Template" and you can watch a video about it <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_1g3IW1ku8&index=1&list=PL6C8AcaO7FAB6iKnTCMy1SQQAZfj3TnZ4" target="_blank">here</a>. I used the large, but not the largest, size template.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">You can find Jennifer on FB <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100008379660895&lst=1363714055%3A100008379660895%3A1487899099" target="_blank">here</a> and her Etsy store is <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/JenofEveDesigns?ref=ss_profile" target="_blank">here</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello there!<br /><br />I have a chunky, "girly-to-the-max" journal to share with you.</span></span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">T</span>his vintage journal measures 6" x 9" and is 2" to 3" thick when its "cinched" down with its ribbon-tie closure. This chunky journal weighs more than a pound, has more than 120 pages (counting both sides) and plenty of pockets, tags, envelopes, ephemera, "tuck spots" and loads of journaling space. <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I've also tucked in many quotes from Miss Austen's books, so it's very romantic!</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Many of the pages are coffee-dyed and/or are sprayed with Glimmer Mist and or Lindy's starburst sprays. I used lace, tulle, ribbon, tiny ribbon flowers, eyelash fibers, paper clips, glassine bags, specialty matt photo paper, parchment paper, card stock, ledger paper, grid paper, tracing paper, etc., to create the pages and elements.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The cover is machine stitched around the edges and is reinforced at the inside spine with a large piece of Tyvek. The cover (including the clip art of the woman) is coated with Ranger Multi Matte Medium. There are two signatures in the hand-sewn binding and the outside of the spine is covered with white “duct tape” (for additional strength) and then covered with two beautiful strips of white muslin flowers.</span></span></div>

It's a printable journal designed by Jennifer at Jenofeve Designs and it

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />The journal is 6 3/8" tall x 4 1/4" wide and has a 1 3/4" spine. It has 7 signatures with a total of 96 pages, front and back. The signatures are hand sewn and bound to the covers using </span></span>a Coptic stitch. I coffee stained the card stock that "sandwiches" the pages in the journal and it smells yummy! The ribbon is Snug Hug seam binding that I dyed with Dr. Ph Martin's Bombay India Ink.<br /><br /><br />Below is a collage of photos that will show you the front and back covers, as well as the both sides of the album. You can see the Coptic Stitch I did on the spine of the album.<br /></span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">albums lately! Last month I shared a flip book</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I made using templates from Jenofeve Designs.<br />I've now made several of them. :)<br /><br />I purchased "Stack the Page" album templates from Jennifer</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">so now I've been making albums, too.

<i>"One of my favorite things to do is design and develop printable
albums and templates for you to print and make with ease!
All of my printable albums and templates are made by hand
by me, not digitally! I am very proud of them
and I am constantly working on a new idea
to bring to you all!!</i>
**
I like them because they are so versitile and easy to use.
You can either print them directly to your DP preference
or print them on plain cardstock and mat them yourself.</span></span></span></pre>

I really like<br />how it turned out and hope it will inspire<br />YOU to make one too.</span></span></span></span><br />

<br />
On the inside cover on every divider page,<br />
I used one of the beautiful stamps that<br />
came with the G45 Collection<br />
and Ranger Distress Vintage Photo Ink to stamp.<br />
<br />
I made tabs for the dividers using<br />
Taylored Expressions<br />
"Keeping Tabs."<br />
<br />
When finished with all the pages, I used my Cinch to bind it.<br />
<br />
That was so much fun!!<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Time flies when you're having fun,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or something like that.<br />
<br />
I'm sorry, blog followers, that I have</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
not been posting for so long a time, but</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have very good reasons for that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Shortly after my last post,<br />
I got married and went on a honeymoon,<br />
and then, a few months later, <br />
my youngest son and my DIL<br />
purchased a home and asked that we</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
move in with them.<br />
<br />
Hubs and I lived in our motorhome</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for several months, waiting completion</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the remodel we had done on our part</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the home. It took months longer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
than we were told and cost</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
far more than the price we</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
were quoted.<br />
<br />
Our home is still not completed, but</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we are now occupying the space and</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
waiting for part of the home to be re-done</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and other parts to be finally finished.<br />
It's been a nightmare, to say the least!<br />
<br />
Our family grew, while we were<br />
living in the motorhome, so</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought I would introduce our<br />
little boy to you. ;)<br />

<b><br />Riley</b><br />He joined our family in February.<br />
He's a midnight black toy poodle and is<br />
now 8 months old. The photo (above) is of him<br />
when he was just a little guy and still in his</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
breeder's care.<br />
<br />
Well, I know that's not what you come to my<br />
blog to see, but that's all I have to share<br />
right now. I've been doing lots of gardening<br />
and trying to get it all in shape and planted,<br />
while I wait on the house.<br />
<br />
I still don't have my crafting supplies put in place,<br />
but hope to very soon! I'm going<br />
through withdrawals!!<br />
<br />
:)<br />
<br />
I hope you had a blessed and safe<br />
Independence Day celebration.<br />
