Junk Journaling Station - Butterfly Beauty

Hello!

I am beyond excited today, to finally let you know about the launch of a very cool project that I have been working on for Vectoria Designs.

There are so many crafters who like nature and create nature themed journals or ephemera! Vectoria Design has numerous nature/botanical themed paper collection already, but what is special about the project that we are going to start working on today, is that it will unite 4 themes in it, once complete.

The first theme is 𐀔 Butterflies 𐀔.

The digital papers (they are SO beautiful, aren't they!?), are available for purchase below :

Temporary offer with DELUXE kits at a discount/launch price (valid until Mar 17, 2023) is HERE.  

Here is the so called "journaling station" and we are going to put all 4 future journals in it.


The "station" will have 2 drawers that you can fill with smaller things/ephemera/stationery:




A journal number 1 is ready and on its place inside the station's compartment:



There is an astonishing amount of butterflies on the journal's pages and all of them are beautiful! Hence the name of the collection - Butterfly Beauty :)








Here are some more details of the cover:



And the spine:


Next, come numerous photos of the inside pages, as well as flaps and pockets on the inside of the front and back covers of the journal (click each picture to enlarge):

Everything is created from scratch and I hope the explanation of the process is clear enough for anyone who wants to try his/her hand at the project of this kind.
