Journal With Me
Today I bring you a fun Journal page that I put together using the Journal prompts and the April kit. I'm cannot even tell you how excited I am to be able to finally show you some things using the April kit, for the last two weeks I've had it on my desk dying to show you just a quick SOMETHING. This kit is gorgeous.
I realised I haven't really showing you some of my journaling in a while so I sat down today to do some journaling and recorded it a bit for you. I didn't go into much detail of the process as it's my usual style.
As always I picked out some colours from my various ephemera that I thought went well together, and using my inktense blocks watercoloured the background to give the overall page some colour. I do this to immediately conquer that blank page!
I wanted to really make that journal prompt stand out and be framed in a nice way. I decided to use one of the half boxes and cut it in half(not actually in perfect halves but you know what I mean) and lay that down like a header. Next a sticker from my stash which I believe is left over from a MAMBI set and two of our star stickers to tie it all together.
Waste not want not and all I used the other half of the half box to be part of the date. I really like how the stamped year with the date circle look combined like this. It's an interesting way to use half boxes or even the washi strips. I decided I wanted a quote up in this corner too and loved this one from the galaxy set. all it needed now was this gold star die cut which appeared in my stash (I think it was in a pocket letter).
Along the bottom I tore a strip off one of the papers that came in the kit and glued it down. We changed paper companies with these papers and I love them. I loved the February papers but these lighter weight ones are so much more versatile. And these stickers... I just cannot even! They are far too pretty to capture on camera, they are gold, black and white with gold glitter in the center! I HAD to use some of them along the bottom. and the finishing touch was another stash die cut.
I did do the journaling on this but it ended up rather personal so please understand why I chose not to share it.
