Description:

The holiday season approaches, so let's make a fun blank junk journal for Christmas to send to a partner. Here are the guidelines; the rest is up to you.

  • The journal should have a Christmas theme. You may use scrapbook paper as an accent and/or decorative element. You can be as be creative as you'd like in the papers that you use for pages. Scrapbook papers can be used for the tags/insert pieces.
  • Each two-page spread should have at least one Christmas element.
  • it is fine to use stickers on some pages as decorative items, but please use other items as well.
  • The journal should have at least 12 separate pages/leaves (or at least 24 pages counting front and back).
  • Create whatever type of cover you'd like. Decorate the cover, but do leave room for your partner to add personal touches.
  • Bind any way you choose.
  • Since this group is international, let keep the size between 4x6 and 6x9.
  • Add at least two pockets and two tags/tuck-ins.
  • Let's recycle and re-purpose papers as much as possible.

If you have any Christmas themes that you really like or intensely dislike, please say so in the comments section. Also, please indicate if you have a preference on religious images. I would ask that you try to honor your partner's likes and dislikes, but this is sender's choice in the end.

If you have questions, please ask.

I love almost all Christmas images, both religious and non-religious. I would prefer not to have Santa images in my journal.

I would prefer to have a nice mixture of everything... religious and otherwise. Please no preaching or bashing.

I would like to have vintage style papers/ or elements, anything 1980's or earlier! Religious or not, with or without Santa, it's up to you. Just think Vintage Kitsch Fun! If in doubt check my PINTEREST: http://pinterest.com/missy110/i-m-dreaming-of-a-pink-christmas-3/ I seriously can't wait for this one!
