Nothing really special here, but this will have to be my submission for this challenge. I didn't do the cover--bought it that way, but I did emboss the sentiment, add the ribbon and the pebble dewdrop.
I like to alter the insides. This one is meant to encourage a mom who is like Julia--at home with lots of kids. Every 4th or 5th page is stamped with an encouraging sentiment or scripture verse. The instructions will say to be sure to write down things that bring her joy when they happen. Then when she is down (or has a rainy day) she can go back through her Joy journal and be encouraged.
