Saturday Session: Art & Junk Journaling

Turn scraps, photos, ticket stubs, packaging and little keepsakes into layered journal pages full of personality. We’ll explore collage papers, stamping, printing, mixed media and a touch of digital inspiration. Test things. Rearrange. Pull pages apart. Follow what feels interesting.

Francesca will guide you step by step, sharing simple techniques you can easily repeat at home, at work or on the go. Practical skills. Creative momentum.

Bring a few mementos you’ve been holding onto. Leave with a chunky junk journal and a hobby you’ll want to keep.
