Description:

I'm doing this USA only because of postage costs. Feel free to create an international version.

I’ve been experimenting with Junk Journals lately, more specifically, trashy junk journals. I don’t see many with a darker theme, so I figured this group would be perfect to circulate some darkness in this world.

For this swap you will create a junk journal that is at least 4x6 in size with at least 20 pages. Binding is senders choice, but it must be bound. Larger journals are fine for those of you that are overachievers; just keep postage costs in mind.

Now, what makes it trashy? Your journal should be made with at least 75% re-purposed materials. That can be any kind of crafting scraps, magazine pages, calendar pages, food packaging, etc. There really are no rules on what to use & how to make it.

Finally, the theme is spooky. Think witches, ghosts, spiders, bats, vampires…anything spooky. Artist’s interpretation.

New to junk journals? There are many YouTube videos; some are tutorials & some are just flip throughs of journals that have been created. Here are a couple videos to get you started:

I'm giving lots of time before journals must be sent out to give everyone time to create.
