Well, this was perfect for me since I had recently acquired these lovely vintage papers from Vectoria Designs and wanted to incorporate them into a 3-D type piece.
I chose this Index Card Art Journal/Diary project after running across an idea like this for writers. A writer shared she loved having access to index cards as one option for writing instead of books; she found it less intimidating for quick writings and such. It got me thinking how fun it would be for ART journaling! I could go grab an index card and just go from there. Then all the cards could be housed in this box!
I have cut some cards from scrap pieces of mixed media papers and cardstocks for my box.
In the video, I refer to a project I made before using this box cut/pattern. Details can be found HERE. Very different look!
Thanks for stopping by! Make yourself at home and feel free to peruse other posts/pages, leave a comment, and/or check out my Pinterest and YouTube Channel.
Wow, what an amazing make! I enjoyed watching your video, it all came together so beautifully. Those papers and images look perfect in the frames that you made and I love the finishing touches you created with the flowers and string bow - perfect 😊. Thanks so much for joining us as Guest Designer at Creative Artiste and wishing you a Happy October! Hugs Jo x

Congratulations, Katrina, on your guest DT spot at Creative Artiste! Your project is fantastic and such a great idea! Index cards are certainly less intimidating than blank journal pages and I'm excited to see what goes into your lovely collection.
