October Afternoon + Tiffany’s Contest
I’ve been experimenting with the new October Afternoon Paper. Each line has Journaling Cards that look like this:
I thought the little Journaling Cards would make a cute Mini Book. I decided to make a book for my daughter, Izabelle – she just started 3rd grade. I want to record some of her unique interests. She will be 8 years old this month, it will be fun to have her help by recording some of her favorites in her own handwriting. I want Izabelle to be able to look back in the years to come…this way she can remember what her 8-year-old self loved…she loves to read books (especially the books about dogs) and noodles are her favorite food, Doctor Who is her favorite TV show. Izabelle loves to draw and paint pictures, she loves to get letters in the mail and keeps her room very clean…
You get the picture, right?
Using the Journaling Cards, I made this little book:
Tiffany (who is pretty, smart, generous and funny) is hosting an amazing contest on her blog:
I’ve been reading Tiffany’s blog for awhile now (every since she started SITS with Heather – who’s blog I also frequent). Tiffany is so much fun and I know you will enjoy her blog.
