Embellished Journal

Good morning! This is Heather with a fun embellished journal that I created with a simple notebook I found at IKEA last week, and some beautiful Unity Stamps! I used the lovely Gardenia Floral Border to decorate it.

 

Here is the video showing how I decorated this journal:

I loved this little mint colored notebook – and somehow gold seemed like the perfect combo with it. I was super happy with how well the sentiment heat embossed in gold – even with the texture of the notebook. Thank goodness for the fabulous MISTI tool!

My video was supposed to go a bit longer, but sadly at the very end my camera battery died. I didn’t realize until I was in the process of editing that it had cut out before I had finished the last little bit – but there wasn’t much missing – I just added some gold splatters with my Gansai Tambai Starry Colors Palette to finish it off (after masking off my sentiment with some simple post it notes so I didn’t muddle them up and make them hard to read).

Have you ever embellished a journal? Such a simple and fun way to personalize something – maybe for a gift! And incidentally, this layout would work really well for a card as well!

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!
