The back inside 

and outside covers are just plain. I covered the black chipboard with the 7 Gypsies Lille paper and used  the wide eyelets. Here is completed the completed journal...

Even with trying to

keep the pages as flat as possible, this is still pretty bulky. Lots of fun to make, and will be something I can use throughout the year.

A big Thank You to Paula for the inspiration... you're the best!

Thanks for stopping by today!

My Press Journal Update

The other day I 

showed you a peek of the journal I had started for myself (here). Well, it's done... but I don't think I want to post the whole thing at once because you would probably get bored. So here are just the first few pages...

I've tried to keep

the pages fairly flat, but the book is still thicker than what I had hoped. There are several sheets I didn't even use, but I can always make another journal with them. I'll show you the rest of the pages tomorrow. Have a wonderful weekend... it looks like cold weather here!

Thanks for stopping by!

Press Journal Peek

My word for the year

is "Press". So along with a Christmas "Memories" album, a Prima mixed media album, and my Creative Jump Start journal, I have started a personal journal to record my journey in 2013. Here is the beginning of my adventure...

I chose to make my

journal following the amazing Paula Phillips, aka Journal Artista, directions here. She has been on a "sabbatical" to get her health in order, and I'm thrilled that she's back again streaming on Ustream.

My cover is on a

base of black chipboard, and so far, I believe I'll be using 7 Gypsies Lille and KaiserCraft Timeless papers. The pages themselves are made from large scraps of miscellaneous papers and prepared according to Paula's instructions.

Am so excited to

 get this put together and share it with you.

Hope you have a 

wonderful weekend, friends. We are get a great deal of snow dumped on us right now, so I'm thinking I may be spending mine in the studio.

Thanks for stopping by!
