About Me

Hey I'm Stacey, I'm that friend that you call when you need something made!

 Being creative is a very big part of who I am. I've dabbled with many different things over the years from sewing to a little woodworking. In doing so, I've discovered that paint and paper are my two favorite things. Vintage and antique are my personal style, but I do enjoy experimenting wit

Harry Potter Junk Journal

Image
I love to reuse and recycle junk and maybe stuff that's not so junkie. Have you ever made a junk journal? I've made a few now and I have to say i'm definitely a lover of junk. A while ago I gave my daughter a behind the scenes movie magic book about the Harry Potter Movies. The book had great pictures, stories and recreation ephemera. I say had because there was a little accident and the book got wet. That's where the idea for this junk journal came from. I salvaged what I could, which most people would now consider trash, and put it together in my latest creation a Harry Potter themed junk journal. There are so many people who grew up with the books and movies and are still in love with this story and it's characters, those same people have brought journaling to the mainstream. Combing the two is a no brainer and hopefully I've created something that will be loved, an heirloom full of memories to be cherished later. You've hea...

Elements For Mini Albums, Junk Journals and Scrapbooks

Image
Hello! Welcome back to my Blog and I hope you are having a terrific day! Lately I've been thinking on some different ways to put some oomf in our Mini Albums, Scrapbooks and Junk Journals. Creative elements that will surprise and hopefully, a few of these ideas will be new to you. I'm going to be taking a look at stepping up old ideas as well as introducing you to some new ones and I'll be packaging them up in a new YouTube series called Elements. Today's video comes with a tutorial on how to make some cute tags but we'll step those up so that there is a pop-up surprise inside. As you will hear in the video, I talk about how these pop-up tags can also double as a card on a package or, with Christmas coming, they can be used as gift card holders. Of course you can also place a photo in them or do a little bit of journaling on them too! This is also a great way to your up your scrap card stock and designer paper collections.  Watch: Wouldn't a bunch of these be cu...
