My Gratitude Journal - Final week




Hi there!
November is here, and with it comes the end of my Gratitude Journal journey.  It is one of my favorite projects of the year, and for the past 30 days, it has helped me to take the that little bit of extra time to focus on the little things that make my day.  So, let me show you the last week of entries:

Day 22:  Thankful for a TREAT




This was created using the October PL kit and some of the November stamps from Citrus Twist Kits



Day 23:  Thankful for my NEIGHBORHOOD


For this page i used a combination of printables and stamps from Studio Calico and Citrus Twist Kits




Day 24:   Thankful for a SPECIAL DAY / HALLOWEEN

Day 30:  Thankful for TODAY  /  GRATEFUL HEART

As i close another Gratitude Journal, I feel so blessed to see how much our LORD provides and cares for every detail of my day.  I have loved each day, and some have made me look deeper at my feelings, and thoughts. 

I hope you take the time to work on a Gratitude Journal -any time of the year is a good time to be grateful-, you will love the fulfillment it brings to your life as you discover how much you are loved.

My Personal Jourrnal - WEEK 24



Hi there!!

It is amazing to see how much life changes day to day.   We are going from final exams for the kids to having a major kitchen reno so i totally forgot to update my blog with the entries for week 24.  So here we go:






I have been trying at best to put a dent in my CTK kits (though they are so lovely, i have lots of material arriving) so I used pieces from the June, July main and PL kits to create some of the entries this week.





As you can see we have a bit of World Cup fever, so be prepared to see lots of POrtugal jerseys in the next few weeks!





I love working in hybrid entries for my TN. Having digital stamps and cards from both CTK and In A Creative Bubble is a practical way to add  entries in my journal in a short time.  Plus they are easy to combine with any stamp, too!



Well that is for me today,  i will be back in a bit with the entries for week 25.

Take care!

My Personal Journal - week 21





Hi there!

I don't know how the weather is on your little corner of the world. but Toronto is feeling like Summer, and we have not yet even experienced Spring.   It is amazing how fast time runs, and we don't even realize it at times.  It is life, I guess, always being on the run; so it is always good to stop and smell the roses, or in my case  capture and document small moments.  With that being said, let me show you this week's entries on my personal journal.






I am a stamp lover, and could not pass up a few new releases from Feed Your Craft; so  as soon as i received them, I put them to use in some of my tn entries along with my Citrus Twist Kits goodies.







This week i was drawn to having a full spread per day ( a few extras included), so i chose to go for a few hybrid additions to some of my entries -using Studio Calico and In a Creative Bubble digital files-







This month's Citrus Twist Kits PL kit featured Crate Paper's Wild Heart collection, and one of the papers in my selection was this large graphic one.  Gotta say that i love how easy it was to combine it with pictures and stamps to create a sweet page about my baby.






Well that is all for me for this week. I hope these serve as inspiration to take a few minutes a day to document your memories in whichever format of your choice.

have a safe week!

My Personal Journal - Week 19





Hi!!!

Hope you are doing well!  Life is starting to settle, and hopefully we will have a bit more relaxed days than the previous ones. Through it all, I have journaled the good and bad moments, and used some of that time to put a few pages together in my visual journal.  Here are the entries for this week:





I got to admit that i am enjoying using a hybrid style for my TNs, for one it speeds the documenting process, and then it reduces the amount of bulk  added to my pages.  So of course I am loving my Citrus Twist Kits and their new digital files.   They have come in handy for some of these.





Like i mentioned in my previous post, I recently made some purchases of digital files from In A Creative Bubble, and i am learning how to use some of this new digitals, but loving what they are doing for my journal.





That is all for me for this week!  It is amazing to see how my little journal is progressing, and now it is time to start Insert #8. 

As always let me know if you have questions on how these came together.

Take care
