Cheerful BIRDS for our junk journals – a whole new flock of whimsy!

Because we can never have too many cute birds in our journals, I have another easy idea for you today. This one uses bright paper and various rectangles, and there’s even an articulated wing. I had fun using some prints I recently made from my foray into the gel plate world. (thanks to @julietorrens for her encouragement!)

Last summer, I made a limited-series podcast about all my deep thoughts regarding junk journaling. It’s free on the Spotify app! Search for “Ordinary Paper” or link here: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/da... Note that in the first episode, I mention that I was doing a podcast because I didn’t think I had enough ideas for a YouTube channel. Things (happily) went a different way, so ummm, never mind on that!
