It's way less sticky AND IT'S COOLING. I'm going back tomorrow and buying like 5 more!

Hi friends! I've been posting about slowly getting back into collaging after a years-long hiatus.

I'm happy to report that I've continued creating! Not everything turns out exactly how I want, but here are a couple that I like.

Many thanks to all of you for your encouragement! That's really what keeps me going. I'm so very appreciative of all the support I've gotten from this community. 💜

I have so many now thanks to this community! 🥺

I am now the proud owner of my very first two mini prints, courtesy of my fellow r/SecurityEnvelopes enthusiast u/Jolly_Long3275!

There are no vending machines near me, so I'm unlikely to get any more. What should I do with them? Frame? Scrapbook? I am open to any and all suggestions!

My boyfriend was offered a personal loan from Discover!!!

Hi friends! I've been posting about getting back into creating and you all have been so supportive!

I made a few more that I wanted to share with you. The main issue I am having now is trying to improve my cutting/tearing out and layering, but I'm improving with practice.

I'm so grateful to all of you for motivating me to keep going. You guys are the best! 🤗

I'm still working on improving my cutting/tearing and gluing skills, but I'm otherwise pleased with my progress. 😊

I just decided to leave without buying them. Bad vibes.

I'm happy to mail them out to anyone/everyone that wants them. I'll even stamp punch them if you want!

I had no idea you all sent them to each other, or else I would not have ripped the envelopes open like a trash panda. ✉️ 🦝

I am VERY bad about not opening my mail. Thus, I had a giant pile of what I thought was junk mail sitting in my kitchen. Decided to go through it today for the sole purpose of starting a security envelope page in my junk journal.

Well I found an unexpected $500 check from my insurance company in one of the envelopes!!! I'm so grateful. That money came at just the right time for me. 🥹💚

So, anyway, here is my new collection in my junk journal, a repurposed 2016 Lilly Pulitzer planner. 🌴

Hi friends! I posted before about trying to get back into collaging and pics of some old stuff I made years ago. With all of your encouragement and suggestions, I'm finally back at it!

​

Here's what I've got so far. I guess my tearing out skills aren't what they used to be.

Some pages aren’t complete but thought I’d share anyway. And don’t worry-these are all used and or on paper. I have duplicates or multiples of everything. Nothing is rare.

I posted a few days ago about trying to get back into creating after many years of dormancy. All of you were so kind and encouraging that I decided to get out some supplies and give it a try.

So I decided to start by copying some of my old work. On the left (b&w) is a page from my old journal, and on the right (pink) is something I just started.

Thank you so much for the awesome suggestions (and keep them coming)! Y'all are the best!!! 🥰

Edit: Formatting

Found these in an old journal of mine from 8 or 9 years ago when I was going through a divorce. Not sure how I thought up all this, but I'm very impressed with my younger self. I'd like to start creating again but I'm a little intimidated! 😂

I didn't know what junk journaling was back then, but I was doing it! Now that I know, I want to start again.
