Mixed Media Magic: Jacqui’s Grungy Daisy Chains Layout 🌼🎨
When it comes to junk journaling, there’s nothing better than seeing how other creatives bring products to life in their own unique way.
This week, we’re thrilled to share a gorgeous mixed media junk journal layout from our Brand Creator, Jacqui (@jacquisjournals).
From Daisies to Grunge
Jacqui started with our A5 Daisy Days Patterned Papers — soft, floral designs that can lean vintage, whimsical, or rustic. But in true mixed media style, she gave them an edgy twist by pairing them with old book ephemera, vibrant inks, and layers upon layers of texture.
The result? A colourful, grungy layout that feels alive with creativity. This spread is a masterclass in using pretty patterned papers as a springboard for bold experimentation.

Techniques You’ll Want to Try
Watching Jacqui’s process is like peeking over the shoulder of a mixed media artist at work. She blends grunge and colour with effortless layering techniques that anyone can try at home.
Here’s what to look out for in her video:
🎨 Paper layering: Building depth with torn Daisy Days sheets and old book pages.
💧 Inky goodness: Blending colour washes to add mood and vibrancy.
🖌️ Texture play: Combining soft florals with rugged, distressed elements.
It’s one of those videos you’ll want to watch, save, and replay whenever you need inspiration for your next journaling session.
