Yes! So stunning and breathtaking. May I ask you a question about how long did you leave the papers soaking in the coffee stain before you took them and hung them to dry? Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful artwork tutorial for junk journaling pages. ❤

[@DiaryofaCreativeTherapist]

@@kcgreen6940 Thank you 😊 I am happy you enjoyed the tutorial. I believe I left them to soak overnight but I often leave them only for a couple of hours and make the coffee a bit stronger. You could see with the marbled papers that I only wet them once and left them to dry immediately. I would recommend to play around and be surprised by the outcome. I love having coffee dyed paper in different shades. I find it makes the journal interesting. Greetings 🤗💕

[@kcgreen6940]

Oh! OK, thank you so very much. Just absolutely love the papers and I can’t wait to use the food coloring. I’ve dyed papers before with coffee and tea but my paper seems to get a bit mushy so maybe I leave them in too long because it’s hard to separate them. Maybe I should leave them a shorter amount of time! lol! I will try to leave them for just a couple hours this next time and I will use some food coloring as well. Good thing is that here in Texas they dry so quickly outside in the summer! Love it so much and thank you so much! I am greatly enjoying your channel and learning so much. ❤

Those are beautiful! How long did you let the coffee dyed papers sit before hanging them? Thanks. ♥

[@DiaryofaCreativeTherapist]

As far as I remember I left them overnight. But sometimes I only leave them a couple if hours and make the coffee a bit stronger. I am glad you like them. Thanks for letting me know 🙂☀️☕
