Junk Journaling 101 - Build Your Stash Challenge - Junk Journal Making - with ArtEphemerie

Hi all, I'm Lisa, the junk journaling artist behind Art Ephemerie on Etsy! I'm new on the YouTube scene, and hope you'll come along on this wild junk journal and ephemera making ride with me! You never know what I'll be up to, but you can always expect great stash building videos, exciting hauls and new product shares, as well as mixed media art projects to inspire your creativity, and hopefully spark those upcycling ideas! I'll be uploading new videos soon, so please like, subscribe, and be sure to hit that bell for notifications when I upload new projects!!

This video features two lovely ladies that I found very inspiring when I first started junk journaling. I found them on Instagram and Facebook first, on junk journal group pages, and then re-discovered them on YouTube and Etsy. I recommend both! They are very creative and quite knowledgeable about everything related to making junk journals and ephemera.

The first is Pink Monarch Prints, which is where I got the digital downloads for the pages made into pockets, and the matching ephemera, and, of course, the overall idea for this video! (collab #4 link,    • #jjtipsandtrickshacks Collab #4 : Loa...  )
(   / @pinkmonarchprints  ) & (www.PinkMonarchPrints.etsy.com)

The second was Line Dot Arrow, (   / @linedotarrow  ) & (www.LineDotArrow.etsy.com) which is where I got the other items used as embellishments, etc. for this project. You should really check them out! Such cute items that are digital downloads, so instant access! Have fun!!

Some of my fave products that I love & y'all ask about all the time... (please note that these are affiliate links, and if you make a purchase, I may make a small commission (at no additional cost to you). I only promote or recommend products that I use myself on a regular basis.)

My favorite stamping inks are the Tim Holtz "Distress" Inks and Oxides by Ranger Ink! They come in a wide range of colors, and can be found on Amazon, as well as at your leading craft retailer! They are constantly adding new colors to this line, and I'm trying my very best to end up with all of them! 😁

A few of my most used tools, ink colors, and accessories:

This is an great assortment of my most-often used colors: Antique Linen, Black Soot, Vintage Photo, and Walnut Stain. You can't go wrong with these; they're perfect for making papers, images, and tags look antiqued!

Distress Oxides: https://amzn.to/3WbnGCR

And these, oh how I love these new Tim Holtz colors! My 2 new favorites are Gathered Twigs, and Forest Moss. They have such a beautiful earthy feel, but with a vibrancy you wouldn't expect. I didn't think I would like Forest Moss nearly as much as I do, and it has quickly become one of my go-to colors for inking edges! Blueprint Sketch is the perfect bright, vibrant blue, and Aged Mahogany is the color of perfectly aged, fine wines. Such a beautiful, rich red. (I love using this color for inking the edges of my Christmas cards!)

This set just arrived at my house recently, and I must say, Peeled Paint has to be my favorite shade of green, maybe ever! This bundle includes: Faded Jeans, Fired Brick, Fossilized Amber, and Peeled Paint.

Another favorite set, and the best deal on Amazon for Tim Holtz products, no doubt! These really add a vintage feel to your junk journal goodies! Bright, fun colors you'll be reaching for again and again! Colors included: Abandoned Coral, Peacock Feathers, Picked Raspberry, Salty Ocean, Seedless Preserves, and Wild Honey.

This will be my next purchase of the Tim Holtz mini inks. I love this combination of colors together, and can't wait to play with them! Includes: Festive Berries, Milled Lavender, Shabby Shutters, and Tea Dye.

My favorite cotton lace is this bundle that comes with 5 rolls in different widths. This is one of my other go-to products for a beautiful finishing touch for cards, tags, and other ephemera!
