Gift Idea - This and That Journal


Happy Friday Everyone!!
Back in the spring (I think) Stampin Up had an offer introducting the new Epic Day, This and That Journal.  It is a blank journal, filled with the Epic Day Designer series paper.  It was offered in a bundle that came with the paper, stickers, washi tape and a rotary stamp.  I don't journal, although I probably should, but I just had to buy this.

Now, jump ahead 5 months.  The journal was sitting at the bottom of the drawer that holds my stamp sets.  So were the stickers and the paper had never been touched.  I love the paper and didn't want to use it.  Since it's clear to me I'm not going to journal (if I was, wouldn't I have used this by now?), I decided to decorate it and give it as a gift.

Truth be told, I had a ton of fun decorating this journal and adding ribbon to it.  I also made a coordinating book mark to go with it.  So this gift is all ready for my friend for Christmas (can't say which friend, I do want there to be some element of surprise).  So.... here is my decorated journal:


I really love how this came out. I showed it to a co-worker and she ordered one for her daughter.  With that being said, if anyone would like to order a book, please contact me.  The cost of the decorated journal and book mark will be $15.  They all will be a little different, but this is the basic color scheme.

Thanks for stopping by!
