Junk/Trash/Smash Journal

It's been raining here, so I've been couped up in my scrapbook room playing for hours on end. I had made plans to make cards but after watching some videos on youtube, I decided to make some junk journals. The idea behind it, is to use all of your scraps! {Which I love} Brilliant idea, because we all have tons of scraps! Whenever I create, I always go for my scrap pile first because I have to be very economical nowadays. I ended up making 3 journals! :) I will share the others later.

I used a transparencies for the front and back covers.

I cut a vellum envelope and used some of my smash products that I bought at Archivers the other day. I bought the pen, tabs, large and small pockets. I wanted a smash album but they were all sold out.

The other day I used the last bit of Zatarain's seasoning mix {we buy it in bulk at SAMS CLUB} so I washed out the container and put my ribbon scraps in it. I love it!

Here are a couple of video's that I liked on youtube.

happy scrappin'

SMASH

Here are 4 pages out of my smash album that I could post. I wished I could post the others but they have personal info on them. But you can get an idea of how I done mine. If you have made one I would love to see it, just share the link in the comment section or if you decide to make one I would love to hear that as well!

Ideas for your smash album:

I can be ANY theme you would like ( I did one about me)

Books you read

receipts

tags

pictures of your home, where you grew up

your camera (I did this one) how much it cost, etc.

Candy you like

pictures of items in the newspaper like eggs, milk, bread (how much they cost)

Your hobbies

family photos

Things you like, dislike

Bucket lists

random cool stuff

I could go on and on but you get the idea!

Happy Smashin' :)
