Junk Journal July Day 9 - Clashing Patterns

 Coffee/Tea of the Day - Maple Walnut coffee

 It's time for another project created for the Junk Journal July. for more information about the challenge, please see this post.

Today's prompt is 'clashing patterns.' my project might be better categorized as clashing styles. I have combined muted vintage papers and images with those that are bright, colorful, and new.

I have made a page topper fold-over piece for the Family Fun journal. I know there is a proper name for this somewhere, but for now it escapes me. it's designed to fold over a page in your journal, with each side flipping up. sometimes I use fun clips to attach these and others I just let it sit.

digital papers are from Artymaze (vintage), Mintay Papers, and Carta Bella Family Night. (click here for the digital version) elements are cut from papers by Mintay Papers.

the front piece has a little pocket that contains a journaling card made using a junk mail postcard and coffee dyed paper. I added some blue painter's tape to go with the bright colors. distressing the fold-over piece helps to blend the new with the old. 

thank you very much for stopping by! have a great day! :)
