Little Tips from Me to You

As you embark on your creative journey with “Escape to the Mountains,” I want to share with you some nuggets of wisdom that I’ve gathered along the way.

Think of these as your personal crafting compass, guiding you to make the most of these gorgeous printables.

The Art of Printing

Paper Choices Matter: For junk journaling, the paper you print on can transform the look and feel of your creation.

Matte photo paper brings out the depth of the images, while textured cardstock adds a tactile dimension that’s delightful to touch.

Printer Settings: Make sure your printer settings are adjusted to the highest quality, and select the correct paper type.

This ensures that each print captures the intricate details and colors of the mountainscapes as intended.

Test Prints: Always do a test print on regular paper to ensure the colors and details come out to your satisfaction before you print on more expensive paper.

Junk Journaling with JPEGs

Image Sizing: JPEGs are flexible. If you need to adjust the size of an image, you can do so without losing quality, as long as you keep within the image’s resolution limits.

This means you can have a full-page spread or a small vignette of the mountains on your pages.

Layering Love: Embrace the layering that junk journaling is known for. Use the JPEGs as backgrounds, then overlay with other elements like text, stickers, or additional images.

The mountains can become a distant backdrop to your main focal point or stand alone as a majestic centerpiece.

Mix and Match: Combine the different mountain scenes to create a narrative in your journal. Each scene could signify a different chapter or mood in your storytelling.

From Digital to Tangible

Seamless Seamstress: If you’re crafting a bound journal, consider the placement of your images, especially near the spine. Make sure important parts of the scene aren’t lost in the binding process.

Aging Gracefully: Add a vintage touch by distressing the edges of your printed pages with ink or using tea-staining techniques to give them an aged look that complements the timeless nature of the mountains.

The Right Glue: Use acid-free glue when adding elements to your pages. This ensures that your work remains pristine without yellowing over time.

Crafting Ethics

Respect the License: Remember that while you have the freedom to create and sell your masterpieces with these images, it’s important to follow the licensing agreement.

Keep the spirit of creativity ethical and respectful. If you’re unsure, please reach out and ask, I’m more than happy to help.
