Five Elements Challenge

We have two challenges going on in May, this year (2021). This one is the Five Elements Challenge, in which we send each other five elements to incorporate into a junk journal page. In this video I show my first set of elements and how I used them to complete a page arrangements in a botanical journal I am making.

The challenge was suggested by Henriette after she watched a video on YouTube by Luise Henzel. It looked like fun so we adopted the idea into our group. I am hoping to add other videos and pictures from our members as they come along.

Punk Reation sent five elements to Judith. Here is what she designed:-

Here is the second set of elements, which I received from Lisa: Lisa sent me some interesting elements, the most difficult one of which for me to create with was the dark grey plastic plaid faux material. Once I decided what to do with it, I was off and away with it and enjoyed the whole process:

This five element page is called Pretty Cottage:

This is a viewing of the second set of pages for our collaboration junk journal.

As the pages came in, I collected them together to show in the group. This is the second viewing :)

Video of first Collaboration Junk Journal - March 2021

This is the first video, showing the work of our ladies for the collaboration journal. I think you will agree that the pages are just lovely. So much work has gone into making these, ready for the first draw on April 6th 2021. Unfortunately, the draw is only open to the participants, this time.

Junk Journal Page Collaboration - January - March 2021

Happy New Year everyone.

Admin has been looking at something special to start this year off and here is our first offering.

We are asking ALL the members to make a journal page in their favourite style.  These pages will all be sent to Stella Jones
. Stella will then organize the pages into a journal or journals depending on the number of pages received.   When the journal or journals are completed there will be a draw from all who participated and the winner or winners will get the journal (s). 

All pages must be A4 or 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 (standard copy paper folded). 
They must be received by Stella by the end of March. 
The winner or winners are responsible for the postage to get it to you. 
Only those who have participated are eligible to win. 
Please sign your page & county your from. 

We hope that this will be fun for the entire group and I’m sure Stella will share the pages with us as she receives them.  Any questions or concerns please ask. 
Looking forward to seeing all your amazing talent.

To enter into the collaboration you must be part of the Junk Journal Penpal Group on Facebook.
