I decided to do a second post today since time is the theme and I'm so excited about 2010!!!! This is a journal that I made for my friend who will be headed to Ottawa, Canada for 3 months to be with her sweetie Inside it has some pockets and pages to record and capture her thoughts and musings. I created the book from scratch and used my bind-it-all to put it all together. The maple leaf was created by printing a Canadian flag off on the computer and then creating a stencil from the print out. I then used the stencil to cut out the red leaf of the cover and covered it with Crystal Effects. I also used the stencil on the inside of the book on the pocket pages. Hope you like it and Happy New Year!!!!

Oh I just love hand made journals. Think they mean so much more that way. Your friend should love this! Even has pockets! Great idea for some bits of memorabilia to put in there. You did a super job on this project Michelle! I am so impressed. TFS!!!
