Hi everyone out there in blogland!
Today I have two journals to share. One is new. The other one is a couple years old, but unused until recently and now updated!
My friend Lynn commented on how she liked my journal. I had just started using it a couple weeks ago to keep notes from our Sunday sermons. I decided to make one for her.
This is simply a black and white composition book that I got in Wal Mart for twenty-five cents.
I covered the front and back inside and out with cardstock and designer papers. The I did the image panel with 3 layers of cardstock and dp, machine stitched together.
Tilda with Straw Hat was colored with Copics.
The I added the spring flowers bouquet and lastly added the chandelier beads.
I worked quickly so I could give it to her in church last Sunday, but she didn't go.
As I was showing others, several said it "looked like me" so I thought I would update the very plain one I was using.
Here are pictures of my old and "new" journals.
Can you guess which one this is?
I had covered this one for a quickie item for a craft show I was entering.
Here is the "new and improved" version!
What do you think!?!
Thanks for dropping in! See you soon.

Wow, they are both fantastic but my favorite is the first one (what can I say, I'm a sucker for plaid!)! Love 'em!

Hi Kathy,
Your Journals look great especially the new and improved one. Love those flowers!
I love flowers so don't think you can go wrong when embellishing. Looks fab to me.
