June 15, 2020May 17, 2021 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

I don't know anyone who plays Bridge. It seems to be a lost game, hidden beneath piles of old photos and dusty books. But when I search 'how to play Bridge' online, there are so many results that is seems to be alive and well after all. No need to mourn for the game of … Continue reading Vintage Printable Bridge Scorepad

2020 Documenting

February 18, 2020 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

As each year passes, I am always trying to create a new and exciting way to document the "every day." In the past, I have used scrapbooks and junk journals, mini-books and pocket pages and I'm sure I will continue to use all of these mediums in the future, but this year I settled on … Continue reading 2020 Documenting

The First Page in My Autumn Junk Journal Mini-Book

October 15, 2019October 15, 2019 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

I started working in my junk journal mini-book and have to say I am totally loving it. What I am not loving is the weather. The temperature has dropped suddenly and this warm weather loving girl is not happy at all. However, my new Frankenstein journal sure is coming together, so I guess I have … Continue reading The First Page in My Autumn Junk Journal Mini-Book

I Married a Junk Journal and Mini-Book

October 8, 2019 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

For some reason, I don't think that's correct English. I didn't marry a junk journal and a mini-book; I made a junk journal mini-book! I am forever sitting on the other side of the green grass, mesmerized by everyone's papercrafting creations. When I make a junk journal, I see someone's super cute, super modern mini-book … Continue reading I Married a Junk Journal and Mini-Book

Hey out there is scrappy land! It's cold here in Midwest USA. I keep wondering when it will finally warm up: I mean it's only been like 5 months of chilled air...ugh!

Making A Journal: Part 2

March 11, 2018March 11, 2018 ~ ginamakesit ~ Leave a comment

Hello out there in the blogosphere! Today I am finally sharing part two of my Making A Journal series, demonstrating how to sew signatures into a hard-covered journal in a way that doesn't show the binding itself. It's hiding! I was unable to record this earlier because my sewing machine was in this shop. But … Continue reading Making A Journal: Part 2

3 Ways to Journal Smarter, my new YouTube video, is now live on my channel—> YouTube.com/GinaMakesIt
The sun shone so boldly this morning through the window in my craft room. It felt good to finally sit down beneath its warmth and create without the heavisome worry of time brooding over me.
