not sure if I showed the finished pocket journal, so here are a few glimpses. there are at least four pocket pages and several blank journal pages are sewn in.
The cover is embossed. and all the papers are coffee stained with a vanilla-cinnamon-almond very light scent. vintage tatting and buttons, little ledger papers are also vintage (from my dad's stash!).
when I saw these poppy stamp dies, I decided ( over many days) I needed them. they are adorable!
then I needed the new prima Christmas paper pad - this is just one paper. all are soooo cute. won't the rudolph die (in pinks) look perfect with it? this is a sample from the 6 x 6 pad.
here they are, in action. this little spot is 3 1/2 x 4. mixed with the t. holtz flowers.
and here is a mock-up of my next project. it just happened to be in pink but I'm thinking more halloweenish or maybe Thanksgivingish. I was playing with different sizes. this model helped me with the size I want.
and, after all it's only paper. this cost about 9 cents and about 30 minutes.
hmmmm.....a shadowbox, a candy box, a book box......wait and see!
yep, Denver got snow and we hardly broke 90 degrees today. it was almost cool when I ran this morning (74 degrees). hasn't been that cool since March!
