Folder Journal & Classes Update

Hiya my lovelies!

This week I have been making Folder Journals.

I was given some old files a while ago,

the sort that hang in filing cabinets.

I cut off the metal parts with a craft knife and put

one inside the other.

Like this...

I then made 3 holes with a bradel. I used a big darning needle &

some cord to sew a 'signature'.

There are lots of tutorials out there.

This is a very simple version!

I tied it together and knotted it on the outside.

I then Gessoed all the pages!

It's now ready to use & added to my collection!

I also have a Moleskine & a Dylusions journal too.

I am also thinking of using an old altered book.

You can use anything you like really!

I have downloaded some classes this year to do at my own pace.

I have to have surgery soon & the recovery is quite long, so

I need to keep myself busy creating to get my mind off of

what's going on! This is the start of many procedures & I might find

myself getting a bit overwhelmed with them all but we will see!

I will post anything I do create either here or on FB.

The classes I am doing are:

Wanderlust2017-Everything Art

Book of Days Boot Camp-Effy Wild

Lifebook12- I know it's old but it was in a sale!

I am also doing Jenniebellies Rock your own Shop,

so watch this space!

I have put links in in case you want to have a look.

I will also be continuing to do Journal 52 which I talked about HERE

and #MiniMoleyDaily which I talked about HERE

That will keep me busy!

I'm not worried if I fall behind, I will just take each day as it comes.

Your patience with my posting may be required!

Thank you so much for stopping by,

it really does mean a lot!

Please leave me a comment or hug.
