merry christmas!!!

...and my best wishes to you all, my friends!!!

christmas journal: day 3

Last weekend I could make a couple pages but the best was that I made my album cover. I took an old cardboard binder and covered the outside with red binding fabric, and the inside with a K&company green paper. Then I put a piece of red felt with some embellisments on the front cover. Finally I made the title with some silver letters from Heidi Swapp. Now I can keep my pages in it and I´m punching holes and adding as well some drawings that my daughter makes while I´m scrapping. Here is my third page, too. The little cards can be opened and keep little "secrets" inside...

christmas journal: day 2

Papers: BasicGrey, K&Company, Anna Griffin; glittered letter stickers: Making Memories; stickers: 7gypsies, Love Elsie; rub-ons: Love Elsie; chipboard: FancyPants.
TFL!
My second page. I´ve decided not to number the pages so far and I´ve put a tab in which probably I´ll put the numbers or dates later. I´ve covered the back side with a photo of an advert that I cut from a home decoration magazine and put a paper strip for covering the advertirser words and maybe I will put something more.
The same way my Christmas supplies box is open, I´ll leave my pages open to add more things, photos or words if necessary...

The back side. Paper: Amy Buttler (K&Company).

shimelle´s christmas journal: day one

Cardstock: Bazzill; Paper: Scrapworks; letters: American Crafts thickers; stamps: CastlifePress, Aladine; rub-on: Love,Elsie; words stripe: 7gypsies; others: ribbons.

TFL!

Ok, this is my first journal entry for Shimelle´s class "Christmas Journal". I missed my first 2 prompts as I was out during the weekend, so now I´m a bit behind...but I´m not going to worry or stress myself. I will do it with some days of delay if necessary and if I can get up to date...so much the better!

Finally I´m going to use different sizes in my journal which I will bind at the end, probably in a ring binder. For this first page I´ve used a piece of chipboard in 7x9", then covered with paper both sides, on the front side I´ve taken Shimelle´s words and I´ve reserved the back side to put some other "private" thoughts.

I´m not very proud of this first page, but I don´t mind, I hope it will be better day by day, I rather think some days will be better than others, sure!
