Journal Your Christmas



Shimelle's 'Journal Your Christmas' online class starts this Saturday December 1st. I have just finished making my journal so that I'm ready to go with the first prompt. I have made my journal 8 x 8 out of some thick chipboard and I'm feeling a bit guilty as I had bought loads of Love Elsie 'Noel' stash to use but have changed my mind at the last minute and used BG 'Dasher' that I had in my stash from last year !!

The cover had the beautiful 'Partridge in a Pear Tree' PP, Heidi Swapp chipboard letters, some gorgeous green beaded trim from my local haberdashery store and a 'wing' from a past Jenni Bowlin kit, all with a liberal coating of clear stickles !! I am not going to bind my journal until the end, if it will fit I will use my Bind It All and if its really bulgy it will have to be good ole book rings LOL !!

I will be able to catch up on some crafty projects as I have just git back from the Doc's and he says I have a viral infection which is making me freezing cold, nauseous and completely fatigued so I'm stuck at home for a couple of days on my own, will keep you all posted with anything I get up to.

PS .... Postie dropped some amazing cards through my letterbox today from Monica's Glitzy Christmas Card Swap on UKS, they are all stunning, will pop a piccy on here later xxx
