Fit Kitty Challenged me to make a Christmas Journal - and I finished one up today! Yeah!
Although, Journals take time to create - I surely enjoy creating them and giving them as gifts. My Journals are primarily for writing. However, the recipient could add photos.
I made a decision to start using supplies I have been hoarding- [the brads, paper, charms, etc.] Like WHAT!! I said to myself... " You purchased these items for crafting - Hello!! Stop hoarding and use them---- you know-- so you can justify buying more!" LOL
Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed week.
Main tems I used for this Journal
Cuttlebug ~Misti- Scissors, Corner Punch
MFT-Die-Namics Stitched Tag Die/Banners [various sizes]
Scotch White Glue - ATG
TLC Printables throughout Journal

I have been promising myself for a long time to make a journal, but I don't use them. I have so many TLC images etc, you have inspired me to at least try, this is GORGEOUS.

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful, Gail! I love everything about it! I keep looking at the photos to see all the neat details and little pockets! You did an amazing job! Your journals/ albums just keep getting better and better! I have an idea and I've printed out some images, just need to get my mojo going! Your journals/albums have been an inspiration!

Oh Gail, I just love the vintage style of this beautiful album. I love the way the pages show the sentiment at the bottom and all of the places to add tags and fluff. Bravo for making the decision to use your supplies! We're so happy you shared with our challenge at Mini Album Makers. Hugs, Autumn
