Hello again! Welcome back to T stands for Tuesday!
Last week was a busy one with the Independence Day Holiday. Lots of activities including a parade, cookout, fireworks but not many photos to document them.
I thought it would be fun to share my #junkjournaljuly challenge pages here as well as Instagram. Here I can get a little more in-depth and frankly it’s easier for me to edit and organize.
Day1: Introductions
I decided to introduce the journal and project…not myself.
I am using this journal in order even though I’ll have to add a couple of pages before the end.
I have most pages documented before as well as after but I know I did miss at least one set such as this next set…
Day 2: create a collage
This page I almost completely changed for the original.
Day 3: Use a tag
It was kismet that this page already had a tag on it. I added the sunflower paper and lace to fit with my vision. A package of old rub-ons came in handy as well. I thought this page was the perfect place to document this old, well-loved photo.
Day 4: very vintage
This page is basically completely covered with pieces of a 1968 map of Hawaii.
I honestly loved the original page spread…but it wasn’t going to work.
Day 5: favorite color
You know it had to be pink! With a splash of orange…I do love orange too!
The only little bits of the original page showing through is the math text and the stems of the flowers. I don’t love those tissue flowers but they worked to cover the yellow without once again completely covering the page.
I’ll be posting more sets of these pages as I go along…not sure of the schedule but likely not waiting until T Tuesday either.
I do have to tell you about my garden pests once again…you won’t even believe it!!!! You may remember last week my garden was looking lovely…my green beans were lush and full of leaves…
Not so much any more. UGH!!! I found full grown deer tracks in the garden. Keep in mind this garden is maybe 5′ x 8′ and has a fence almost 6′ high around all but a 2′ wide gap where the gate is.
Well not anymore…it’s not pretty but it is functional. I’m hoping Mr. G will build me a proper full height gate before next growing season but for now, this will have to do.
Today has household chores in store…super exciting I know.
