This past weekend was consumed with journal making. I created four large journals and four minis. I love being at that place in life to be able to dedicate my entire weekend to my journal making. The only question Sunday evening was "Who does the laundry"?

| White cover with purple ribbon tie. This journal contains five signatures of handmade paper and 20 lb. white inserts. |
 |
| The cover contains pieces of stems. A button works with a leather strap to close the journal. This book is called the Envelop journal because there are five envelopes inside. |
 |
| A simple button holds the string of beads. |
 |
| This book is my favorite. Can you imagine taking this book with you on a very special vacation? You'll also find this book for sale in my Etsy store. |
 |
| Here's a mini that is perfect of keeping special thoughts. |
 |
| Flower power...girl power. This is a great mini that packs a punch. |
 |
| Trying to decide on the journal's closure method can be a challenge. I found a handful of tiny beaded bracelets that work as a perfect closure for a mini. The bracelet slides on and off with ease. |
 |
| The France book is secured with a unique button and a slim leather strap that loops around the button. |
 |
| Inside the France book is a small envelop and an "owner" card. The back cover also contains an envelop. |
 |
| I love this Coptic stitch method. It allows each book to lay completely open which makes for easy writing. |
 |
| A unique closure |

| This is the inside of the Envelop Book. Each of the five envelopes contain small cards that can be used to capture memories, or to give away with a special thought attached. |
