Upcycled Envelope Vintage Style Journal Spread

Having some fun with old envelopes and postage stamp washi tape. 

I always love making flaps with envelopes.  Trying out my new fountain pen in diagonal format to switch things up a bit. 

 

 

 

Brush Lettering Vintage Bullet Journal Spread

It's all in the details, wouldn't you agree?  Adding layers with vintage ephemera and a variety of inks. 

One of my favorite things lately has been to either digitally remove the center words of fancy labels or just cover up the centers with more images, using the label as a "frame."  This label was already blank and can be found at World Label HERE.

 

Free Printable Vintage Style Words for Bujos

I fell in love with this vintage bee hive image and enjoyed putting this spread together in my glue book.  It's always fun to add a word snippet.  I have a free printable sheet of vintage style artful words for you.  Click the photo to save.

Washi makes for easy flaps. 

 

Rubber Stamps & Postage Stamps for Bullet Journaling

I had a lovely PaperArtsy postcard on my workspace and decided to alter it with sandpaper, gesso and ink.  I love the way it turned out, with added rubber stamping and collaged postage stamps. 

I stamped this amazing image onto tissue paper and glued it over the postcard so it would be somewhat transparent.  I added watercolor details to make it pop. 

I love mixing brush lettering with handwriting and stamping.  And with the elaborate script from the postcard, what a mix it all becomes!
