Once Upon a Time Junk Journal Kit · 75 Printable Pages · Fairy Tale Storybook Ephemera

A stone castle on a misty hill.

A little thatched cottage deep in the woods. A tower wrapped in climbing roses, a glass slipper among the storybooks, and a frog in a tiny gold crown sitting on the wishing well.

This is a fairy-tale junk journal kit that feels like the colour plates of an old storybook: dusty rose, dusty blue, sage green, antique gold and warm parchment, painted in loose watercolour.
