MINI JOURNALS!

Before: Medicine box!

After: Journal!

A few nights back I was inspired by Jennie's youtube channel, again, and made just had to make these journals from medicine boxes and toilet paper tube. I always feel guilty throwing these out wondering if there is anything I can do with them? Well, yes!!

This is the toilet paper tube!

I glued tags inside in order to use the string, for tying the book closed

Another made from a paper tube! I love the button:)

  

I have so much paper left over from my scrapping days, i could make a hundred of these and still have paper left over. Now I have two macaroni boxes and three papertowel tubes waiting in the wings:)

Happy Tuesday! Enjoy this day. Its cold, gray and rainy here
in my corner of NY today. Hopefully the sun will peek out later.

AEDM Day 12 ~ Making Journals.

This is a sketch I did a few weeks back.. this morning I added color:) The other creative activity I did was create this AWESOME journal. I found a post on Elvie Studio's blog about a tutorial by Teesha Moore. A very cool activity, making a journal out of a single sheet of 30x22 watercolor paper:) I can't wait to fill it!
What a beautiful Saturday in NY! Mom, Dad and Eric swung by this afternoon. Mom and I took a trip to Michaels. I was pleasantly surprised at the register. The two circle punches I purchased were on sale 40% off and I had a 25% coupon that could be applied to sale items. All is right with the world. When we returned home we found out Dad had made a few trips to the local stationery store, he won $25 on a scratch off ticket, went back to cash in bought a few more, won $50, repeat, then $25, repeat, then finished off with $5. I think I got that straight, nevertheless Pop is on a winning streak. Boy, was he delighted, it was so much fun. That is his only vice, scratch-offs, haha! go figure. This evening mom helped me put together two journals. I tried to convince her to take one but I think she had more fun just putting it together:)
