 Hello everyone and welcome to my channel, it's Eva from Bohemian Crafting and today I'm coming to share with you two collections I recently put on my Etsy. One of these are gorgeous, these vintage bottles and herbs and I really hope you will like them. I made collection of screensavers actually for my computer and I use that for about a month now and I was thinking I really like how they turns out all these images so I was thinking maybe you will like them too for your journals. So on my Etsy it's now collection of these gorgeous images. They are put in the size as this, they are not kind of, I didn't make them as a classical junk journal collection, I left them there as a single images just to make sure you can use them as a screensaver as well and you can resize them the way you want and you can print as many as you want in the size you want. So in that collection every single image is separate, it's unique, all of them are Bohemian craft, craft originals, Bohemian crafting originals and I really love them, I'm so happy that they turned out this way because I love the look of these vintage bottles and the herbs around. So I really hope you will find some usage for them and I will also show you how I did use them already. So I'm just gonna quickly go through to all that collection, there is I think 50 images, if I'm not mistaken, all of them in kind of vintage style, all of them in vintage style actually because I like vintage. So all kind of bottles and herbal displays, here I do have 4 images, yeah here I do have 4 images, so you can use them maybe as an insert, this one image on the page you can use them as a pages in your journals, just cut those white edges and you will have beautiful pages for your journals. Here I do have also 4 images on the sheet, so you can use them as an insert. When I print out these, these are like 8 by 8 images, my printer run out with magnet color so in the end you will see few images in a very greenery style and it's just because my printer run out with the magnet ink or cartridge. So here we have herbal cabinets and I think these can be add to any kind of journal. See here it's starting to get kind of like greenery without magnet at all, so that lovely vintage tone it's kind of gone, here it did try a little bit but it failed. So these images and as I said they are in the size which can be used as a screen saver as well for your computers or if you are journal maker and you love to make journals in nature style I hope this will be great for your journal and then next collection I would like to share with you today and also tutorial for these images are these mini books and this is the way it did print out after my printer run out with that magnet color it's much much better this I did print out in the first row and they do have still you know magnet color so they are still in a nice color here I do apologize it was kind of like already gone so I do have collection with mini books I do have where I do have them these three sheets with the mini mini books which will be like this more like notepad just few pages inside and it will be thin like this so I do have three sheets and they are always same one book here and then another book here these two always same one book start to end and second book start to end and third sheet is same and then I do have three sheets with these images and they are also exactly same design it so you have pages in the row every single row of these it's one strip which you will fold into into little booklet and in the end if you will glue all these together you will get thick book like this this one it's actually this one so you will have beautifully designed this is not plant catalogue I'm not sure why I do have this one here plant catalogue is this one actually so I think I made mistake this is herbal herbal book and I forgot to wrote the right name and this should be plant catalogue it's supposed to be here yeah I made a little mistake so here we have plant catalogue herbal book and astro book I'm gonna cut them off cut them on the pieces and we're gonna create first one of these large books I'm gonna take this astro book and then we're gonna create maybe these two and I'm gonna show you how to do it easy I hope it will be easy to follow and you will enjoy to create your mini books I'm gonna be using guillotine but you can use scissors and just to cut if your printer is printing with that white frame around cut this top frame top line white line and then cut always between these two rows rows of book pages there is a kind of like fine black line always between these two rows there is very fine black line so just follow that line and cut the strip I'm gonna be using my guillotine because it's fast and cut it on strips using my guillotine and then just move and follow the line so I'm gonna take the scissors and with scissors I'm gonna cut off these white edges so I will end up with strip like this the following is very easy just fold it on half then again on half and to make sure your papers those pages will be folded equally fold this one to the middle and this one to that opposite side to the middle and press that way every of these pages inside will be folded equally if you will try to fold it all in one bunch these will be folded nicely but these will have a bigger gap so the end will be shorter so just on the half on the half and then one of these ends here the opposite end on that opposite side and press it then open your fold and you are starting to fold pages together and then like accordion so all printed pages will be inside like this and do that with every single of these strips and I am folding the last one so now to put it right way together and I do have my little folded pages ready to be glued together so I'm gonna have a look this one it's the first from the start of the book this one it's the last on the end of the book and these are between and believe me it's totally okay if you will don't place it in the right order because they are teeny meany small pages and you wouldn't be able to read it anyway just try to place them not upside down so these small squares are always on the start of the column so maybe that will navigate you I'm gonna have a look oh shoot I forgot to fold this one as well the right way so I do have my little booklet ready to go ready to be glued I'm gonna take a glue stick and I'm gonna take one open it and between first and last fold I'm gonna apply the glue and start to fold I'm gonna hold this last or first page and fold this one together then up one and again up one and this here and I do have one booklet I'm gonna take another one and do exactly same apply the glue just in between first and last page hold one page it doesn't matter if you will hold it this way or this way just hold the end page and fold it this way fold it this way fold it this way then last one and press it get now I'm gonna take first booklet that's this one yeah I'm gonna apply the glue on the last page grab one of these small booklets have a look yeah the right way and place it right here I'm gonna match it on the bottom and on the front and press press press together and always check if you do have the book the right way not upside down keep the last last booklet as the last thing last booklet is with these gray kind of ish or green kind of ish papers on the end so prepare first the next booklet yeah it will go this way again apply the glue on this last part take your little booklet place them together and press and next one and I'm gonna take the last booklet and place it here so I do have my little book blocked on here I see that one page it's peeking out so I'm gonna take nail file and just sand the ends of my papers it doesn't have to be you don't have to do that or you can take scissors and just with scissors kind of flat all these edges I'm gonna also take distress ink and add a little bit of brown color to those edges you can do this one are actually after you will glue it all booked together you don't have to do it right now but you can if you want that's the book block ready now I'm gonna take this leftover and cut the pieces this will be cover of my book these two pieces are for chipboards so cut it off and to make sure you will don't have to take a ruler and measure how big it's your book block and how big pieces of chipboards you will need I prepared these two small rectangles so you just need to cut them off from paper grab some old you know old envelope or chipboard or serali box grab your little papers and glue them on your chipboard then grab your scissors and with your scissors cut the pieces too now take this last part this will be cover for your book and I'm gonna cut these sides I'm gonna cut it slightly in the angle you can fold these around to the cover and that will kind of navigate you where you should put these little pieces then you're gonna take one of these rectangles put there a glue and place that rectangle to one side and glue it together then you're gonna take the second one and do same on that opposite side put the glue if you want you can grab your book and try to place it between your chipboards it should fit I forgot to say I did print out on 80 gsm paper if you used a thicker paper 100 120 160 your book block will be probably thicker than mine that way you will need to cut it between this one and between this one and glue your covers you know those sides on the front and on the back and then cover the spine maybe with washi tape or brown tape you know cover it with something different then is this spine just to kind of like extend it because the 100 120 160 gsm paper it's thicker and when you will fold it into your book block it will make that book block thicker as well and just wrap the cover around these little cheaper boards you can add distress ink then you're gonna take your book block have a look where is where are the folds and where are the pages put the glue here and put the glue here get up your cover and here it's good that the cover doesn't have any you know letters so you can place it anyway you want it will be not upside down and just place the cover around your book block make sure that opening is here that you will don't keep here the glued edges and just slide your book block or text block inside that cover and it should fit try to play with it try to push it inside and make this a little bit curved and let it dry and now I'm gonna fussy cut out now I'm gonna fussy cut out these three images I have fussy cut out my images I'm gonna fold this around not around I'm gonna fold this down fold this down to make sure it will be not peeking out I'm gonna cut it slightly in the angle just small amount you know just a little bit here as well and here you can glue these two papers straight away down or you can add here chipboards as well I didn't add these exact chipboards I'm sorry for that although I still can add it there so in the final sheet I will try to add you know the pieces you need to cut chipboards so I'm gonna add here between you know between designs pieces for chipboards you can add here and here and you can add here and here I forgot to add it here so I'm gonna do it before I will place it to my Etsy the other those chipboards as well so you can place that chipboards or you don't have to you can make these as a notepads and that can be totally without this is backside and it's just because if you will use some thicker paper you will end with different thickness of the journal so this will be adjustable I hope I'm saying that right adjustable adjustable yeah sometimes I'm totally lost in pronunciation but I'm always so pleased that you do understand or you are trying to understand what I'm trying to say so thank you so much now I'm gonna fold this between the front cover and first page and then I can go either up and follow this edge or I can follow the lines between the pages and just a fold and fold fold them first on these lines and then make accordion folds first fold them same same way you know just to help yourself and try to have these kind of following not to fold it this way just to match these edges and fold but it's gonna go really well nicely easy like this and then you're gonna go accordion way again so this way this way and this way press it down open your folds so here I do have to glue it down here I'm gonna glue these sides fold it down I'm gonna hold this a longer side that backside I'm gonna take again the glue add the glue here on the pages in the middle and I'm gonna go fold and fold and fold and fold and fold I'm gonna keep this open for now now depends on what thickness of paper what grammage you used you will have different thickness here so that way fold it over and kind of cut this long piece somewhere before this fold the way that you can fit there so I'm gonna cut it here add here a glue fold this one over and glue it here that's from that backside now I'm gonna add the glue here that's the front cover fold it over and go it down and again I'm gonna take distress ink and add distress ink to the edges to make it look more vintage and you can open your notepad and add distress ink inside as well and this one will be a really small one it will have just few pages but it looks really cute in the end you have a little notepad so we do have a book and little notepad and there is here this composition this is actually quite similar to this one it's just that you need to glue these together you can fold this one where the glue should go like this fold it put there a glue so here is back cover here is front cover so place it this way and to make sure that your strip will be straight place it there the way that these two edges will will be evenly will be even or will follow each other oh I just forgot to write a word for it align each other and now once these two strips are glued together you are doing going exactly same way so fold this fold this gonna cut these slightly in the angle make sure it will be not peeking out over the edge and again with these you can add the chipboard inside and add the chipboard inside here as well if you will want so you will make beautiful book but you don't have to fold these and this and glue fold and glue and now I'm gonna follow the lines for the pages same like before so you will have these pages now you're gonna open it add the glue between front and back cover and start to fold from back cover sorry so back cover hold back cover here that's the longest part and start to fold your accordion keep it open now again fold this and I need to cut it slightly down I'm gonna add the glue here fold it over and add the glue here and fold it over and you will have beautiful book and same like before if you would like to add there a little bit more vintage grab your distress ink add the distress ink to the ends to the edges of your papers and you will have beautiful a little book so touch my little books and here just very quickly how you can add the images into your journal I don't have finished book cover for this one yet but here you can see if you will bring them small or if you will bring them larger and you can make it as a semi-transparent book using you know wax or paraffin and melt it through the paper so you can really jump back the book with beautiful images this is with those herbs and decorative bottles and I really love the look of the wax paper and although this is not a wax paper I printed out these images on 80 gsm 70 gsm paper very light paper then I used wax and I melted the wax through to that paper using my heating tool and this makes the image transparent I do have tutorial for that I will try to find it and link it in the description below so here you can see that you can see through the window and that's how it looks like if you will add these images into your journal so really beautiful I hope you did enjoy it I hope you got some inspiration sorry for that greenery the images or the designs or not that green it's just my printer run out with the red color so this is my sharing for today thank you so much for stopping by today and spending your time with me I wish you a beautiful day take care of yourself and I will come back soon bye
