Finishing a themed journal can feel overwhelming… especially when you have piles of ephemera 🐝✨
In this video, I’m walking you through exactly how I use ephemera to finish a themed journal—from layering and placement to balancing pages and creating cohesion.
You’ll see:
• how I choose which ephemera pieces to use
• how I avoid overcrowding pages
• how I create flow from spread to spread
• how I add dimension without bulk
• my thought process behind finishing touches
If you’ve ever felt stuck at the “almost done” stage… this is for you.
👇 Tell me: do you decorate as you go, or finish at the end?
