FROM TRASH TO TREASURE: Junk Journal from Packaging #4 Binding the Signature and Ephemera | Easy DIY

Let's create our signature and bind it to the cover! My favorite part of making journals is honestly the first time I am flipping through the pages after I have bound them :)

Today I am showing you how to create a journal signature, how to bind it to the cover with a 3-hole pamphlet stitch, and we will make a cute envelope to add to our journal.

If you would like to catch up on some videos from this little series, here is the whole playlist for you:

And if you would like to see the kit I am working with in my shop (it's on sale at the moment!), here are the links for you :)

Thank you for watching!

Love,
Martyna

I definitely think you and your boyfriend should do a collaboration for a digital. It would be awesome! Just love the envelope! I am so glad you feel better! Xoxo

The journal is coming along beautifully. You have made the stitching in of the signature look very simple. I love using the beautiful butterflies they are so pretty and work so well with the kit- thank you for the freebie ❤️ Your boyfriend’s digital art is so lovely and yes they would look really nice as elements to a kit. so glad you are feeling happy, you sounded very happy today. Looking forward to the next instalment. 🌈❤️🌈

This is such a pretty kit. I like the 2 stamps together, purple was a bonus. You are such a sweet caring person wanting to support your favorite artists, and all of your followers. I appreciate the positive fibs sent my way! I did get to the doctor today and had my procedure down on top of just being seen. One more thing off my list...happy face. You have a hidden talented boyfriend what a nice surprise. I am happy you are back. I like to hear about your life whether it is relevant to the project doesn't matter to me. If it is relevant to you then it is relevant. Have a lovely week.
