I adore this video so much that I have recently been collecting cereal boxes from everyone so I can make a journal like this. I was able to use your "glue and pinch" technique for the cover of my first handbound journal and it gave fantastic results.Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial! (I also linked to this video from my blog, giving credit where credit is due. I hope you don't mind)

Hey Jenniebellie! Yes!!! Unfortunately...we don't receive mail here...except maybe once a month - and all my friends know it - so we don't receive Christmas cards...BUT I have dozens of them saved from years ago!!! PS (I used lots of the painted boxes for my altered book pockets and tags but still have enough to get going with your art journal)! xxooxx

[jennibellie]

@bohemiannieart Whoop! That's my girl! Make sure you're saving your xmas cards, just managed to get my hands on them and can't wait to get creating the journal and video xx
