Junk Journal Prompt Builder overview

The builder is organized into three key sections: Composition, Style, and Parameters. You can easily choose your desired options, and if needed, customize by adding specific objects, details, or colors in the provided text fields. Your selections will automatically generate a tailored prompt in the Result Prompt cell.

If you have the PRO version, you'll gain access to limitless prompt variations with the “Enhance with ChatGPT” feature. This tool not only expands your creative possibilities but also provides fine-tuned prompts for other AI tools (like Dall-e, Leonardo, Ideogram and Flux) or even create market-ready prompts for sale. Exclusive PRO features also include extra dropdowns like Style Details, Color Presets, and extended Parameters.

The default digital product is set to “digital paper,” as it’s in high demand in junk journal designs. For guidance and inspiration, refer to the Instructions and Visual Examples sheets. For a detailed walkthrough of the builder’s features and dropdown options, don’t miss the video guide.

Flux, Dall-E, Ideogram, Leonardo
(Other text-to-image AI generators’ outcomes)

Although this guide focuses primarily on Midjourney, we've tested our Junk Journal Prompt Builder with several other text-to-image AI tools, including Flux, Dall-E, Ideogram, and Leonardo (learn more about their compatibility in the Q&A section ). For junk journal-style images, we believe Midjourney stands out as its artistic approach closely aligns with the layered and textured look expected by fans of this theme. Here’s a quick rundown of how other AI tools performed with junk journal prompts:

  • Dall-E: Delivers soft colors, fine textures and visually pleasing multi-layered compositions, though it lacks the scrapbook-like realism that Midjourney excels at.
  • Leonardo: Works best with the Phoenix and Signature models, creating more likely cartoonish images. It offers a decent free alternative, but lacks Midjourney’s level of detail.
  • Flux.1: Produces vector-like images with high contrast, which also may seem too cartoonish for junk journals. It also struggles with capturing the multi-layered, distressed scrapbook aesthetic.
  • Ideogram: Even using its Realistic model, it falls short in providing the authentic junk journal look, though its compositions can still be visually appealing.

Improving Results Across Platforms

To achieve better results across these platforms, we recommend using the "Enhance with ChatGPT" button (available in the PRO version). This feature refines prompts to generate more intricate and compatible images across Dall-E, Ideogram, Leonardo, and Flux.
