Started the September VSBN this morning - use Die Cuts on your layout. I used the tails from a SU! Whale Die (retired). Made my bg using the ink, spray, smash technique and then I dipped my stencil in mainly Vintage Photo and pressed it to the page. I outlined some of the circles wth Stickles.
Picture is of two of Grandsons sitting on the counter licking the brownie bowl (at a friend's house). The journaling is just my thoughts on how I should focus more on what is important in life. I am so enjoying this journal scrapbook.
Thanks for looking! Hugz

Inspiring, motivating, and so delightfully artsy! Love this idea for journaling and feel inspired to change up what I do. I usually just write my thoughts, especially what was talked about from the Bible messages at church, but I like that you are taking your journaing into another dimension to make it a scrapbook record.

Fun pic and I do like the additions you made that should go to the top of the list. I do think making my cards is a way to give to myself that in turns gives to others when I send them out, love how that works

I LOVE your gorgeous journal pages, Nancy! I would love to create beautiful artwork like you have here, but I just don't have the confidence to pull it off. You have inspired me! If I created journals, they would look just like yours! xo

Great inspiring work you have going here. Love the things you are focused on in your journaling as well as the way you are sharing it on the page. Delightful pic to go with this. Mermaid tales are super fun here.

Precious grandsons and I know they are really enjoying the chocolate. I love this page, as I do all your pages. You've really put your heart into the journals. I could be envious for a little bit. Guess I need to work on some...but when???
