Coffee/Tea of the Day - Mystery coffee (hubby made it this morning before leaving for an early breakfast meeting)
Hooray! another weekend is upon us!
as I work on several other projects, I thought I would share photos from journals I have previously made. I'll get pictures of more of the pages from the completed baby journals as I visit family over the next few months.
This is the cover from our oldest granddaughter's journal. they had gone with a boho themed nursery, so I tried to incorporate that into the journal.
the precious sleeping animal teepee image is surrounded by a painted chipboard frame, wooden heart, metal Tim Holtz arrow, mulberry flower, and real feathers. I am forever picking up feathers from the ground. I don't know the birds from which they come most of the time, but I do think they add a beautiful, natural touch to craft projects.
I try to incorporate as much actual vintage ephemera as I possibly can in the journals I make. that could be advertisements, book pages, sheet music, greeting cards, post cards, and of course beautiful vintage buttons.
sharing what I have made in the past invigorates me to keep crafting. it's inspiring. do you feel the same way? do you ever go back and look at the things you have made?
I hope you have an amazing day, knowing that you are truly and deeply loved!

Oh my! This is absolutely lovely...the colors, theme, embellishments...it's all so perfect! Wonderful boho/vintage look. As for your question; yes, I do go back through the photos of my past projects. I also find it interesting to see how my pieces evolve...or not! ;) Thanks for sharing with us at The Outlawz AbaC!
