New Year Resolution 2 - Celebration File & Card Storage.

Welcome back my crafty friends!
My last post was all about taking a moment each day to write down one thing I am grateful for. 
Today's project is about a resolution that I have made every January for the last 3 years (at least) and have never followed through with. I am hoping that this Celebrate File & card storage will help me.
I love to make cards but I am terrible at mailing them out in time. Horrible actually.

I used the Eileen Hull Travel Journal (661906) and Card Box, Planner Storage & Organizer (662361) dies to make my organizer.


~ Here is my finished organizer ~

Now I had to creative because the assembled card box is wider than the finished journal die. To solve this I left the first cut of the front and back of the journal whole and did not bend the spine on the score line. I made 2 extra cuts of the spine to attach to the front and back of the journal.
 If that doesn't make sense then please watch the video - that may explain it better.

I made some monthly inserts for my card box that list the dates of birthdays and anniversaries for the entire year. I love that I can look ahead make a card and then store it in the box until its time to pop it in the post. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this will keep be organized & motivated to get cards in the mail.

Out & About Travel Journal

Hello & welcome back!

Today I am back with another journal made using the Eileen Hull XL Journal Die from Sizzix and my fave paper company - Wild Whisper.

The first journal I made was made using the Strong & Free line from Wild Whisper.

This new journal is made using the Out & About paper line - perfect for a travel bullet journal.

The paper packs include 6 12x12 double-sided patterned paper. Just enough to cover the inside & outside covers of your journal plus to make the covers for 4 journal insert booklets. 
I used the paper scraps to make pockets to hold journal cards.

I used the coordinating stamp set to add some stamping to the journal pages 


I love how this journal turned out and can't wait to take it on my future trips.
