Junk Mail

When I left a comment on Halle's blog so I would be entered to win one of her hand made creations (One World, One Heart), it was like every other time I left a comment to enter a drawing. I was hopeful but not laying bets. But this time
I WON!


The really cool part is that although I had admired this particular journal, I had no idea it was a junk journal made up of paper scrap. My favorite kind!!!
This salt and dye page is one of my particular favorites.

As is this retro spread.




All disguised as a conservative looking day planner circa 1978.
My grandmother's favorite flower was lily of the valley as is my mom's (she is a May baby), so the cover of this journal is sentimental to me.
The best prize on all counts!
And thank you also Halle for the tea you enclosed!

I took a "Remains of the Day" journal online class and it uses scrap mail, etc. I haven't made my journal yet but have tinkered around with some pages. They are just beautiful journals. Congrats on the win!
