Last month I went on a cruise and I made a\u00a0Personal Mermaid Junk Journal. In this\u00a0Personal Mermaid Junk Journal, I used images from Calico Collage,\u00a0Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists and things from my stash.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\nTo help new junk journal creators I made a video on How to make a\u00a0Personal Mermaid Junk Journal.<\/h1>\n<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>My method is pretty straightforward. Using a basket I collect the items I want to use for the junk journal. In this case, I collected sea themed items, like stickers, scrapbook paper, digital images, stamps and more.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stage.lindaisrael.com\/art\/2017\/10\/20\/personal-mermaid-junk-journal\/personal-mermaid-junk-journal-image-1c\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3704\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3704\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c.jpg\" alt=\"Personal Mermaid Junk Journal\" width=\"5312\" height=\"2988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c.jpg 900w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1c-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5312px) 100vw, 5312px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The next decision is to figure out what size I want the journal.

Next, add some color with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists. I love to use stencils with the mists for added texture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stage.lindaisrael.com\/art\/2017\/10\/20\/personal-mermaid-junk-journal\/personal-mermaid-junk-journal-image-1e\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3708\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3708\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e.jpg\" alt=\"Personal Mermaid Junk Journal\" width=\"5312\" height=\"2988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e.jpg 900w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1e-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5312px) 100vw, 5312px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since this was going to be my\u00a0Personal Mermaid Junk Journal that I would use while on a cruise I decided that I didn’t want bulky embellishments to get in the way of writing. This journal stayed very simple.<\/p>\n<p>The cover was cardstock that I used a stencil and then sewed the Calico Collage image from A Mermaid Tale on top. While looking around in my stash I found a pretty Prima Pearl embellishment that I knew would be perfect for the cover.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stage.lindaisrael.com\/art\/2017\/10\/20\/personal-mermaid-junk-journal\/personal-mermaid-junk-journal-image-1a\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3705\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3705\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a.jpg\" alt=\"Personal Mermaid Junk Journal\" width=\"5312\" height=\"2988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a.jpg 900w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/lindaisrael.com\/art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Personal-Mermaid-Junk-Journal-Image-1a-500x281.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5312px) 100vw, 5312px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The mermaid charm that was attached to this\u00a0Personal Mermaid Junk Journal I found at Hobby Lobby on clearance.

<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>My method is pretty straightforward. Using a basket I collect the items I want to use for the junk journal.
