Happy Monday to you! These journals will be going to their new homes tomorrow! I had so much fun making these! The cover is made from a 6x9 Clasp Envelope, with a flap that wraps around the front to keep it closed. Lots of hand dyed seam binding, sewing, distressing and embellishments! Thanks for stopping by; so happy you did! :)
Hi Everyone! Thanks for stopping by today! I wanted to share this journal that is back in my Etsy Shop as a "made to order" journal. It was extremely popular last year (sounds funny to say that) and I'm bringing it back along with the other journals I have there. You can read all the details on this journal by clicking here. A video link is below the photos.
Good Sunday Morning! I wanted to share this journal I am almost done with. I've had to put it on the back burner lately because I'm working on orders but this should be done in a few days. It's 5x7 with a 2-1/4 inch spine. The front cover won't stay this way because I will be adding a treatment to the spine which will flow over to the front cover. But stay tuned this one will be listed soon! :) I hope you're having a fabulous weekend!
Hey Everyone! Thanks for stopping by! I can't believe it's a new year! With the new year comes new ideas for Etsy, Facebook, You Tube, Instagram (RachelJazzyCreations), and my blog. I will be posting more EVERYWHERE! LOL! I am currently working on a new tutorial for Etsy as well. I can't wait to share that with you all. So I need to create more buzz on my blog and wondered if you might help me out with that? Would you be ever so kind and share my blog with your friends and family? I would greatly appreciate it! If you're on Facebook, it would be awesome if you just shared a post or my main page. :) I am not going to neglect my blog this year. With Facebook and You Tube being my sources of connecting with you all the most, my blog always gets put on the back burner. Well, this year, I am hoping to turn that around so that every project you see on my Facebook Page, or You Tube Channel, will be posted here as well. I hope to see you all as well! Have a wonderful weekend and I'll see you soon with some new journals!

So head on over if you'd like to try one of my tutorials. I currently have 2 listed and I will be adding another this week. In case you're interested in learning how to make this journal, I share detailed, step-by-step instructions in a series of VIDEOS, rather than a written format. You will receive in 3 downloads, the complete supply list with cutting guide which you can print, the link to the project, as well as the password to view the video series. You will learn how to make this journal, cover to cover, including but not limited; a bonus video not shared on my you tube channel showing you how to re-size printable journal kits, making the cover, adding pages, covering the spine, making 5 different pocket and tuck styles, installing a closure, sewing, dying, stamping techniques, as well as tips and tricks I use regularly. You will receive almost 3 HOURS of HD-Quality, video instruction, a printable supply sheet, and access to the photo gallery. In case you are loving the paper collection I used in this journal, it's called Cottage Garden by Ephemera's Vintage Garden. The Video for this journal is listed at the bottom of this blog post. Thank you for stopping by today and saying hello! Have an awesome day!!
Hi Everyone! Happy Monday! Oh wait, can I use those two words in the same sentence? I'm not so sure. Anyway, I wanted to share with you that I have decided to create a Commercial Use License for my tutorials. At the listing you can read all the details, but basically, if you would like to create journals using my tutorials and sell the completed journals at craft fairs or in your online shops, you can do so by purchasing the tutorial and also the commercial license. Each tutorial requires a separate license, but they are UNLIMITED USE licenses, meaning you can make as many of that journal as you'd like! If you are selling online, I ask that you include this statement in your listing.... "The tutorial to make this journal can be found at www.etsy.com/shop/MyJazzyCreations " To purchase the license, please click here. Thank you so much and have a fabulous day!
Hi Everyone! Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a fabulous week so far! I wanted to share with you my first Tutorial that I am offering in my Etsy Shop! I have worked very hard to provide you with detailed VIDEO instruction, rather than a written tutorial. This is a video series containing over 2 hours of instruction. I go over, cover to cover, how to create the journal shown below.
I show you how to make the cover, add the fabric to the spine, how to add pages, how to make three different pocket styles, how I sew my doily tucks and how I coffee dye them, how to add the closure, how I dye my seam binding, and I share tips and techniques that I use regularly in my junk journals.
This journal is 5x5 inches with a 2-5/8 inch spine. It has 108 total pages, counting front and back sides. Video is listed below the photos.
Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend! Thanks for stopping by today. I have a journal and some new sets of Sentimental Book Plates to share with you. I have a little catching up to do, don't I? So this post will be photo heavy! This journal was a custom order and filled with lots of love and extras! It originated from this custom order listing I have in my shop. It measured 8-3/4 x 5-3/4 inches with a 2-3/4 inch spine.
I used the Miss Lady Fay Printable Journal Kit again from Ephemera's Vintage Garden. This is such a gorgeous collection! I also used the set of journal pages that coordinates with that kit.
I recycled a pasta box to use for the cover. The spine is covered with a cotton twill fabric.
I added an extra notepad with the journaling pages from the main kit and tucked the pad into a pocket on the front inside cover.
This pocket is made of dictionary page and parchment paper.
This is a perpetual calendar that I made up and tucked into a pocket on the back inside cover.
So that's the journal! Here are the new Book Plates I have listed in my shop.
I have a promotion on these book plates! But any three sets and receive the set pictured BELOW, FREE! You can see all of my sets here.
Here is the video on the journal...
And the video on the book plates promotion....
Thank you again for stopping by today! I hope to see you again soon!
