snowtime

I filled most of my journal while we were away
  now I just need a few photos to complete it
 I couldn't for the life of me remember how to make a paper snowflake
I ended up with this square edgy look (and that was after I found the instructions...!)
 I picked up a set of vintage reprints with a twist
I really like these guys!
 a little plastic snowman from a tissue pack
 some pages have a lot going on
this is my second journal and something I'll keep doing
I like that I can fill it with memory makers and not too much of my dreadful handwriting!

This is beautiful. You need to practice writing.... having your handwriting in there is important. But I DO love this!!!!! So fun, Margaret!

Halle said...

Fun!! I love what you are doing with these journals. I do agree with Linda though...you need to have some of your writing in there. Your children and grand children will appreciate it later on.

I am completely in love with that book. I know how addictive they can be, but I only MAKE them, I don't write in them. Of course, I love that you are using yours to keep keepsakes and memorabilia. So awesome. Like you, I really like those "snow suit" guys and their bright colors.
