Travel journal with Wanderlust

Hello crafty friends, DT Henriëtte here today sharing a travel journal I made using the 

Wanderlust collection.

This is the first journal I ever made. I watched this tutorial on how to make a journal.

It wasn't as difficult as I thought and the Wanderlust collection is perfect for making a travel journal.

For the signatures I folded patterned papers together with tea dyed and oven baked papers.

I tea dyed the papers myself. Here's the video I watched to learn how to do that.

The give the papers an even more old look I used Blue Ferns Studios texture stamps.

I also made a few pockets in the journal using the Wanderlust collection.

I embellished the journal with the Wanderlust calling cards and printed chipboards.

On some of the pages I stamped images from various BFS stamp sets.

I really love how this journal turned out and I'm planning on using it on our holiday to 

Norway in a few months.

Hi Everyone,

Today it's my turn to share with you my new projects with the gorgeous Wanderlust and Garden Life Collections.

I used the Petites, Calling Cards and Road Trip paper for my first project, called "Travel".

Then created some texture on the fisrt paper using stencil, modeling paste and departure stamp.

Next, I covered the Seashell chipboard with Avocado and Antique Gold embossing powder.  For the title, I used Wanderlust Words covered in  Antique Gold embossing powder. 

I finished my project with different collections of flowers from Blue Fern Studios. I also added  laces and gesso to create more dimension.

For my second project I decided to create another beach layout called " Explore".  

I created the background by cutting the steering wheel from the Mermaid paper, and gluing  it with foam tape for more dimension. 

Then proceeded to emboss the Seaside Seashells and Seaside Tresures  chipboards with Snow and Oatmetal embossing powder. Afterwards, I heated and painted some of the chipboards with acrilic paint.

The title is from Wanderlust collection and it was covered with Antique Golden embossing.  

I finished the project with flowers, crystals and microbeads.

My last project is a tiny card/album that I made with Garden Life Collection.

I created a 5x5" card and decided to decorate the inside as a mini album.  You can add up to 2 pictures and it is a simple and nice gift.  I choose the Sunrise and Morning Dew papers to decorate the cover and pages. 

Using the beautiful printed chipboards from Garden Life I create the centerpiece.  

I continued by adding some flowers, fussy cut flowers and Checker Bits chipboard covered in Snow embossing powder.
