When Calls the Heart // West With the Mounties Vintage Junk Journal

February 20, 2019

Happy Wednesday friends! Today I am so excited to share with y'all the newest item available in the December Caravan Shop! This amazing When Calls the Heart Vintage Junk Journal is now available for purchase! (You can find it HERE!) 
Do you love the Hallmark Channel Original Series, "When Calls the Heart"? If so than you will love this beautiful keepsake junk journal that has been inspired from the TV show! 
 
This beautiful junk journal is made with love from my heart! Several years ago I had a sweet connection to the show as I had the opportunity to visit the set of When Calls the Heart with my mom (you may have remember reading about our adventure HERE) which was so fun. I then wrote a series of blog posts (From Hope Valley Devotionals) filled with encouragement based off the series back in 2017. It's fun to see how the Hallmark series has grown & morphed over the years!
So today I am excited to share with y'all a new special "When Calls the Heart" Junk Journal! This amazing and beautifully unique vintage "West with the Mounties" vintage (1950s) book that has been made into a special Hearties Junk Journal is a hearties/hope valley/when calls the heart/janette oak Lovers dream. With approximately 200 pieces of book pages/tags, quality and beautiful coordinating scrapbook paper, adorable vintage and modern embellishments and ephemera, and fun surprises for the owner tucked in secret places just for the owner, this Junk Journal will create a treasured keepsake for a lifetime!
This junk journal (although vintage) was in excellent condition and contains ALL of the original book pages and even includes vintage tags and vintage-looking tags that will create a treasure that will remind generations of the past while creating precious new memories. 
For those that love the show you will see tons of elements that relate back to the show with special details included! This is made a little differently and I did this purposefully - to fit the theme of the show. One of the ways that I have done that is by making "folders" to host everything. There are three main folders and I loved the symbolism of Elizabeth and teaching. In addition you will find quotes, nods to the kids, the widows, town members, and other additional surprises.
In the first folder you can see the traditional look of the junk journal pages that is incredibly popular. Behind each of the folders are surprises that have pockets that include pockets for Elizabeth, Jack, Abigail, Bill, Rosemary, and Lee. 
In each pocket are fun and unique ephemera pieces that match each character from the show: 
Elizabeth's Pocket: 
*tag with vintage brooch
*vintage flashcard
*Vintage looking card that has hats on it (remember the first season with her amazing hats!)
*additional ephemera

Jack's Pocket: 
*tag with vintage brooch
*Vintage looking card that has Jacket on it (the back has the letter J)
*additional ephemera
Abigail's Pocket:
*tag
*vintage recipe card
*vintage flashcard
*oven flashcard
*additional ephemera

Bill's Pocket: 
*misc. ephemera

Lee's Pocket: 
*vintage timetable
*additional ephemera

Rosemary's Pocket: 
*vintage hankerchief
*vintage flashcard
*misc. tags
*flashcard with coat on it (red coat - nod to the first season, and has the letter C on the back)
*additional ephemera
Thanks so much for reading about it today friends! If you are interested in this When Calls the Heart Vintage Junk Journal can find it HERE! 
Stay tuned as a video of this junk journal will soon be on my new youtube channel! Or find one of me talking about the junk journal on the shops instagram page by clicking HERE!
Happy Wednesday friends! I hope that you have a wonderful evening!!

A Sunny February Weekend

Happy Monday friends! I hope you are having a wonderful start to this new week! How was your weekend? Mine seemed to fly by with fun and sweet times! And some of you reading this are just going to laugh because you know it is true, but it was chilly and I loved it. *smiles*
Saturday morning I worked on shop details (for both December Caravan and December Lane) and wrapped up orders for the December Caravan shop! Thank you so much for your support sweet friends! I was so excited to share this new Dreamer Tag Journal with y'all on Saturday (you can read more about it HERE)! I can't wait to share some of the other fun items coming to the shop this week!
On Saturday I also spent some time working on wrapping up some orders of this book, When Hope Restores. It is always such a humbling thing to send books literally around the world and I am so grateful for everyone who purchases one. Thank you so much!
It was a beautiful (and chilly!) weekend with sun and blue skies and on Saturday it was the perfect day to take a long drive along the lake. The views were stunning and took our breath away! It was fun to drive along the lake and then head back into the mountains! The fresh white snow was simply gorgeous!

Later that night I watched the movie "Hunter Killer" with friends. Have y'all seen it? It was definitely action packed and I thought it was really well acted. Sometimes you just want a fun "guy" movie full of action and adventure- especially when you have guys watching with you *smiles* and so it was a fun movie to watch. Disclaimer: It is rated "R" ... honestly y'all know I have a VERY sensitive heart and am pretty picky about what I watch. I didn't realize it was rated "R" till after we watched it... I think that there is some definite language and it is a bit violent, but overall it was one honestly one of the "cleaner" movies I have seen and it seemed to me that there are some TV shows with more violence. (Not endorsing that just trying to give an accurate picture.) Let me know what you guys think! 
Yesterday (Sunday) was spent connecting with friends and loved ones, yoga, being outdoors and writing letters to dear ones. I also am busily working to finish a project up for an upcoming birthday! I can't believe that we are already in the middle of February y'all! This new year seems to be flying so quickly. I want to grab onto the moments and just hold time still in some ways, and yet it continues to march forward and with that I know will come new adventures and joys. 

This weekend was also spent busily working on a blog/brand re-design that is taking place (and has been for several months now!). It is hard to believe that this space has been around for more than six years as of January 2013! I want to share more, but thank you for following along, your support and your love all of these years friends. You are truly a blessing and I can't wait to move forward with you!

Did y'all have a good weekend? Did you do anything special this weekend? Happy Monday friends! I hope that you have a wonderful beginning to your new week!

Dreamer Tag Junk Journal

February 16, 2019

Happy Saturday friends! Today I am so excited to share with you a fun and cute addition to the shop! This adorable bohemian style dreamer tag and junk journal is now available for purchase! (You can find it HERE!) 
Ever since I was a young girl, I have always had an obsession with journaling and making things that I own pretty. Each of my personal journals are stuffed with colorful, unique, whimsical, and pretty ribbons, sweet paraphernalia, and writing that speaks to my heart and that encourages me. Whether it is a receipt from a dinner out or a sweet handwritten card that I have received in the mail- the ephemera of my life is something that I want to always remember.
Since I was a young girl I have kept hundreds of journals (no exaggeration!), and have several going right now. One is my personal journal, one is a prayer journal, and one is a specific journal of prayers and thoughts for someone very special in my life. Each of them is filled with different colors and paraphernalia. It makes me giggle to think back on what I felt was "important" to keep at the time and makes me grateful for a fun way to keep precious memories alive.
Tag and Junk journals are some of my favorites that I use because they are perfect for celebrating the special and the ordinary days in your life or to give as a gift to someone.
This bohemian style dreamer tag and junk journal contains approximately 20 pages that includes gorgeous coordinating scrapbook paper, vintage and modern ephemera, vintage treasures, journal tags, stickers, and adorable embellishments, including unique and one of a kind ribbon, vintage ribbon. 
This beautiful bohemian style dreamer tag and junk journal is a perfect way to remind you to grab the lovely moments in life. You can easily add in pictures, your own additional ephemera, and quick notes so that you can remember the special days forever. 
If you are interested in this bohemian style dreamer tag and junk journal can find it HERE. Or if you are interested in looking at other tag and junk journals that are available in the shop you can find them in the tag junk journal section by clicking HERE. 
Happy Saturday friends! I hope that you have a wonderful day with friends and family!!
