Details – Junk Journal July – Papercraft Crystal

This is my entry for today’s prompt in Junk Journal July. Find all the prompts on Instagram or YouTube @megjournals if you would like to craft along.

Today’s aspirational topic is cross-country road trips. I have a couple already planned!

Supplies:

Dies:

Sizzix Bigz Nostalgic 664724 (alphabet)

https://amzn.to/3qZHZrT

Buying it from Sizzix on Amazon is half the price of the Sizzix website as I’m writing this, so always compare and/or wait for a sale. Website does offer 15% new customer coupon. Also look for used steel rule dies at thrift shops and garage sales – they are heavy and bulky so people do purge them from their craft rooms.

Elizabeth Craft Designs Planner Essentials 16 (truck)

Planner Essentials 16 – Christmas Tree Page

Also offers 15% new customer coupon. Many truck dies available from other lines as well.

We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy Stitch Piercer, with needle

Discontinued, but still readily available

I used the straight stitch, but heads available for blanket, zig-zag, and other stitch patterns.
