Well...here it is! My first "Easy Peasy Journal". I found the video with instructions by samanthakira on YouTube! I really enjoyed this project and can't wait to use my journal...but I'll have to...I'm sick...yuck. Maybe, tomorrow. :)

I'm adding more pics to my photos, so I hope you can check them out.

That's all for now!

Omigosh! I just found those viddy's too, but haven't had a chance to make any yet! I love the paper you used for the cover...was that something you made yourself?

There's another vblogger on youtube I'd like to suggest that you watch too...look for owlsandelephants. She's 19 and fierce!

Thank you, Sandi. I'll check her out. The paper was just some wall paper I had laying around. I may add a lot more to the cover, we'll see. I do love to use my own hand dyed papers and things, but this was a quickie project and I just wanted to get started journaling. I am following along with "Soul Journaling". The journal I started with felt too small, so I'm going to start over with this one. :)

Oh...and I did use my own hand dyed paper on the charm, along with my embellishments. Just FYI. :)

Hey Bettina.....glad to hear you're journaling. I'm so glad you posted this. I'll have to check out that video too.

ooooo- I watched the video.....it *does* look easy-peasy! Then I got sidetracked & watched a bunch of videos.....I should have been asleep hours ago. ;-) Thanks for turning me on to that! Very nice.

You're welcome, Stacie! I'm starting to use mine. I was following along on with the Soul Journalers. I had started in a different journal, but it was too small, so I started over with this one. It feels really good to work in a sturdy journal that I made myself. It's holding up, beautifully to paper, glue, paint and gesso, so far!

It's 4:30 am, here. I've been awake since 3 am. I'm on this totally wacko sleep schedule, right now. :)

Oh, yeah...and I know what it's like to be distracted by other videos! There are so many good ones!! I've learned a lot, on YouTube!
